YES, MADAME, it is a fact
that practically everything you use,
wear or consume is affected for
the better by chemistry.
"Freon" puts the freeze into your
electric refrigerator; chemical
treatments mean better fabrics;
chemical fertilizers help grow
your food. Nylon hose and
"Cellophane" both start ix
the chemist's laboratory.
The chemical industry is never
satisfied. It forever seeks new
ways to serve you in this
chemical world of today,
