HOME ON THE SHEEP'S BACK PHONE 33-997. P.O. BOX, 773. TJnion Wk ¥ AC Club "Https alt the Services. ” Aulsebrook’s Buildings, CASHEL ST., CHRISTCHURCH. Address all Correspondence to the Secretary. 20th July, 1944 Messrs Felt & Textiles of N.Z. Ltd., P.O. Box 848, WELLINGTON. x Dear Sirs, Some four years ago, a leading Furnishing House in the City covered the floor of the lounge, writing and reading rooms of the above Club with the first ALL NEW ZEALAND WOOL pile Wilton Carpet ever produced by your good selves. For four years this Club has been open day and night for the comfort and entertainment of all Allied Servicemen and men of the Merchant Navy, During the four years, over a million meals have been served, and well over two million visits have been paid to the Club. In spite of the punishing wear from over four million tramping feet, and the fact that the Carpet has already been shampooed four times, its condition to-day, in our opinion, stands -as a monument of durability and excellence of which your Firm may be justly proud, and to which we pay unstinting tribute. Yours faithfully, * Manager, Union Jack Club, CHRISTCHURCH. ANNOUNCEMENT TO RETURNED SERVICEMEN With the help of the Ministry of Supply, Felt & Textiles of N.Z.

Today there are nearly half a million and the average has risen to £66. The thirty million pounds in National Savings is a huge financial dam that keeps a flood of money in check... a flood that could swamp us because there aren’t goods it can buy. So the National Savers thatloyally paid in that thirty million—and are still investing every pay-day have done a mighty fine job in financing the War and keeping New Zealand financially strong. But the interesting patt is—that few of these people who saved, simply because it was their duty, ever dreamed their savings would mount as they’ve done. They didn’t expect a duty to pay such high dividends! • There It is ... £66, on the average, for post-war buying. But, if you’ve never been a National Saver, it’s only £66 you might have had. It’s not too late to start, by any means. The need for saving is as great as ever. Why not open your 3% National War Savings Account now? W5.63.1S
