TANKS PUT OUT OP ACTION BY SNEEZING This method is not taught in the Home Guard or the Army because sneezing does not put enemy tanks out of action, but our own. How is this? The British Ministry of Health states that time lost through colds and ’flu each year is equivalent to the production of 3500 tanks, 1000 bombers, and 1,000,000 rifles. The British Government appeals to the public to keep the nation fighting fit and on the job by preventing coughs and sneezes spreading diseases. The public are asked to trap germs in their handkerchiefs. The proprietors of Baxters Lung Preserver are pleased to extend this propaganda to New Zealand to assist war production in this country. An important part will, of course, continue to be played by " Baxters,” New Zealand's proved popular cough remedy, prepared solely by the proprietors, Baxters, Ltd., Colombo street, Christchurch.— Advt.
