USE OF CARTONS
Sir, —I recently purchased a containei of golden syrup and on taking off the label, I found it to be made of a cardboard material. Never have I had such lovely, fresh syrup before, and ever to the end of the contents, I found il to be as fresh as when I received ii two months ago. There is no need tc have “sticky” tins lying around now as these cardboard' containers arc quickly disposed of in a fire, and all that i remains is the base and lid. Nov don’t you think that even when the war is over this new idea could be continued? And what of the many othei household requirements that could be packed in the same manner and so conserve tin for more important things?— 'Yours, etc.; "WAR EFFORT. Waimate, September 7, 1942.
