Air raid protection--what to do in your home. This is not the most comfortable place in the world for a refuge, but it has its points. In case of damage to the house, the occupants could get out either through the window at the left or the door at the right. The cellar ceiling is extra braced with iron poles.

We recommend, however, that this family get a little more out of line from the windows
