•‘Patches are Patriotic.” With
shortage of material for making
new clothing and with patriotic
housewives and their daughters

this year as never before.
In keeping with the “Victory De-
monstrator's Pledge.” every one will
repair and take good care of all the

be saved by the use of a Victory
mending kit containing needles,
pins, thimble, tape measure, scis-
sors. threads of different sizes and
colors, a button box of assorted
buttons, which can be saved from
old clothes, snaps, hooks and eyes
of different sizes, scraps of mater-
ianls and darning thread. No long-
er need you b' ashamed of patches
or mends since they indicate an
effort to save money, time, and ma-
terial. all important items in the
Victory goal.
See promptly to clothing repairs,1
and mending will not stack up,
small tears and runs will not be-
come a major problem, and cloth-
•ng can be kept in use continuously
and for a longer period of time.
Buttons can be sewed on and rips
run up in a jiffy,
“Combine pleasure with your
mending job.” When you invite
some of your neighbors over for
the afternor., suggest that they
bring their mending. You can
mend and have a good time doing
it.
