Cycle Corps at Seadown.— The Cycle Corps of the W.W.S.A. at Seadown is progressing under the leadership of Miss Margaret Edgar. Signalling has been taught by Mr J. Hewson, and Mr -W. Kennedy has given instruction in drill and physical exercises. Miss Twentyman, chairwoman of the W.W.S.A., has taken members to parades in Timaru. WOMEN, WE TAKE OFF OUR HATS TO YOU! You are one of the new order of women who demand that perfection of health which comes only through freedom from physical and mental discomfort. Women are assisting more and more to carry the burden of the industrial work of the country. They must therefore be able to tackle their jobs EVERY day, free from that "off-colour” feeling. That is why the modern woman turns to NU. TEX, which is a hygienic INTERNAL sanitary protection. Compressed to a fraction of its original size, NU. TEX has super-absorb-ent qualities, providing absolute protection without the assistance of clumsy belts, pins, or pads. —1
