f,200,000,000 BUTTONS
Mostly From goal For Britain's New
"Utility" Suits
About 1,200 million buttons mould-
ed from plastic materials are wanted
for the "utility" suits, designed for
war -time wear in Britain.
Before the war most of Britain's
buttons were of vegetable ivory. Now
the bulk of them are moulded from
the by-products of coal. Although not
popular before the war, these plastic
buttons are much preferred to -day
for they do not break in the ironer
and they retain their finish indefin-
itely. For trousers they are better
than tin buttons because they have
no sharp edges to cut the thread.
Soon the brass buttons of the
.Army and Royal Air Force will also
be replaced with moulded buttons to
save valuable supplies of brass and
copper not to mention time in clean-
ing.
WOMEN GIVE HAIRPINS UP
That Britain May Have More Barbed
Wire for Defence
Women in Britain are going with-
out hairpins and hairgrips so that the
mild steel from which they 'are made
PHONE 8
PHONE 77
can be turned into barbed wire as a
deefnce against the invader.
At present their ration is one fifth
of the peace -time hairpin allowance
of many millions a month, But hair-
grips are in even shorter supply; the
number now being 'produced each
month is only one twentieth of the
quantity used before the war. The
reason is that supplies of the mild
steel for hairpins, commonly known
as "iron wire," are rather more plen-
tiful than the hardened, tempered
steel wire for grips.
Apart from material, labor supply
limits the output severely. One of
Britain's largest manufacturers is
making hooks and effes, snap fasten-
ers, buckles and slides for the uni-
forms of the Navy, Army and Air
orce, as well as women's services
like the WRNS., ATS., and WAAF.
One difficulty these manufacturers
have found is that- both, %killed and
unskilled workers are disinclined to
make these accessories for civilian
wear as they feel that they would
rather be engaged on war work. It
has to be explained to them that the
very women workers on whom so
much of Britain's industrial war ef-
fort depends have to have fasteners
for their caresses and grips for their
hair,
BE BRITISH!
BE CAREFUL!
To Our Policy - Holders :
The Mutual Fire Underwriters Association for Ontario
at their Annual Convention instituted a Campaign for a
"25% loss reduction" for 1942.
At the last meeting of our Boards of Directors, resolu-
tions were passed in support of this Campaign.
YOU ARE NOW ASKED' TO DO
YOUR PART
This is How :
Do not smoke in or around your Outbuildings.
Do not handle Gasoline near a flame or spark.
Do not allow oily waste to accumulate.
Clean up all Rubbish and Litter around Buildings.
See that your Chimneys are all in good condition.
See that your Electric wiring is properly done.
Fire is a demon of destruction and causes the greatest
of all wastes, both in property and life. We therefore
appeal to all our policy -holders as loyal citizens to snake a
determined effort to see that no fire, large or small, is
allowed to start on your premises. By doing this you will
contribute doubly to the war effort by saving a loss in the
first instance and saving the materials and effort neces-
sary for replacement.
