This workshop and another which has turned mut 320,000 battle dresses a week ere using every week enough cotton to go three times round the Equator. These are only two of the 259 tailoring firers• who were given tb? largest single clothing ardor etP,' placed --•for 5.000,000 battle2resse4 blouses and 6.000,000 trousers. That meant 9,000 miles of clo't'h absorb- ing 10;000 tons of wool; 9,000 miles of lining. and 200,000.000 brass her. Eons, A weak later, 1,150,000 Army great coater were ordered, calling for 7,000,000 yards of the heavy milled waterproofed doter specially produced far thre purpose by tba 1'0111 Hire ntilltu, xnto blend six dif• feren0 colours of wool to make the perfect khaki. In six months the overcoats produced from X•erkehtel cloth would have provided 25 year supply in normal times. These huge nrkrtstsearrodueing fac- tories can undertake gigantic con- tracts like half a million battle- dreseee or oVerrenas because they are-eniuli'pe l with the most modern of labomriaaving machines and in peace time produce huge quantities of men's quits and coats, Little aduup:stiou is required to turn the machines over to war proditeti rn, which includes no only the standard a env nnifotmt but tropical kit of drill for troops 'serving overseas, heavy woollen goods in Royal Navy and Air Force blue. as well ars Slacks, tunics .and skirts for tine girls on gun. sites and !bomber stations A11 this war work means; that only a fraction of the British clothing indusny can work on "civvy" wear now standardized' as Utility suits. £ae SCRAP METAL RAGS, PAPER BONES It's not always easy to remember that every scrap counts—but it's true. Every scrap does count. Tons of war material are being made from the scrap metals, rags, paper, bones and the waste collected from Canadian homes. Carry on the good work—every day of every week. Help win this war at your own back door. ERUSSTELS SALVAGE CAMPAIGN HEADQUARTERS AT THE ARENA OPENED ON SATURDAYS 9:00 A. M. to 11:30 A. M. 9:00 P. M. to 10:00 P. M.
