B'l? ft s I n —MODERN STYIE One of the most remarkable features of industry during the war years ■is the way women and girls have helped the men-folk in hundreds of kinds of factory jobs. For instance, New. Zealand footwear factories today are staffed at least 50 per cent, by entirely new workers, largely women and girls. And a wonderful job they arc doing 1 Everybody knows that tremendous supplies of military footwear have been called for; but few people realise the huge task of making a pair of sturdy boots for every man that steps into the ranks of the army or air force —and to keep up a supply of replacements. Millions of pairs of military boots have been manufactured since 1939, in addition to vastly increased supplies of civilian foottvear to compensate for reduced imports. In spite of difficulties due to shortages and varying quality of essential materials, and other factors, the needs of the New Zealand people as well as the Armed Forces have been met with outstanding success.
