To give sweater coats- a
new lease of life
Now that sweater coats are getting more expensive, it
is more than ever desirable that you wash yours with
LUX,. Of all things a sweater, coat, which is seen
so much, must be kept soft, fluffy, fleecy and "new',
in appearance. You can keep yours that way and
wash it again and again if you do this:
Pour boiling water. over LUX flakes—pure essence
of soap -allowing 3 or 4 tablespoonfuls for every gallon
of water you use. Whip into a creamy lather—a few
seconds is needed. Then put inthe garment and stir
it about. Let it soak until cool enough for your
hands to squeeze the water out of the coat—the dirt
just runs away. Rinse in two or three relays of
tepid water, and hang to dry.
Very simple. Anyone can do it -just a few minutes'.
work and you get a result that the most expert
French cleaner might well 'envy.
LUX won't shrink woollens. Won't hurt any
fabric dr color that pure water can safely touch.

If you cannot carry
a rifle, you can serve
your country on the
farm.
"The plow is ;our hope," declared
Right Hon. -David '= Lloyd George, the
Prime Minister of • `Great Britain. The
tremendous significance of these words in•
the face of a world shortage of food must
be a matter of concern to all. It points
out the path of duty to men and boys
unable to enlist in the army but capable of
helping to increase production.
Help the farmer increase
production
At this supreme hour when ample food production is
one of the indispensable means" of victory, the country
faees a serious shortage of men and boys on the farms. ° The
Department of Agriculture emphasizes the urgency of every
man and boy taking to heart this splendid opportunity for
patriotic service.
R Decide now to help in the war. If you are between the
�OyS ages of 14 and 18, and have good term record, you can
secure promotion at school by enlisting for farm service
any time between April 20th and May 20th.
Parents are urged to encourage their boys to enlist for farm
service. The physical and moral welfare of your boy will . be
advanced by a summer spent close to Nature ; an interest will be
awakened in an important industry of the country that will be a ..
help to him in his whole future.
'*jMThe Department appeals to retired farmers, to men
1V1 � following no ,occupation (retired), to business men who
" .. can, spare at least a portion of their time, to all men who
Fant arrange their affairs so as to help some farmer. Every pian is
invited to enlist for farm service:
