THE WASTE BASKET
Dear Reader:
There is a ptper famine in
this country. Your individual
helpjs needed to stop it. If
you will watch this little box
every day we will try to tell
you how you can do that.
We used to import 10 per
cent of the rag.s and old paper
used in making newspaper
wrapping paper writing paper
cardboard all kinds of paper.
The war has stopped that sup-
ply. In consequence paper
prices have gone up in some in-
stances 40O per cent.
Retail stores can help by
posting notices asking custo-
mers not to insist on having
parcels w rapped up if they can
he conveniently handled other-
wise. Customers can help by
acting on the suggestion.
Housewives can help by sav-
ing rags and waste paper
bundling them up and selling
them to the junk man. Tomor-
row we will tell you some of
the kinds of rags most in de-
mand and why.
