WITH A RATION OF AN OUNCE A WEEK, THEIR MEAGRE RATION OF MEAT AND SMALL SUPPLY OF FISH LEAVES THEM LITTLE VARIETY, APART FROM THE VITAL VITAMIN CONTENT OF FAT ESSENTIAL TO WELL-BEING. WE PEOPLE OF OTAGO Have enough and to spare. Let us get together and send them every spare ounce by medium of the FAT FOR BRITAIN CAMPAIGN The aim and object of which is to provide additional nourishment to the inmates of hundreds of small institutions scattered throughout England and Scotland, in addition to elderly people living in groups of small houses, and often one-roomed ones, many such inmates too infirm to get out and draw their rations. We have compiled a great list of such institutions, and, equally important, the correct channels through which our Phfts will be distributed, such as the GENERAL SECRETARY, WOMEN'S LEAGUE, WOMEN'S INSTITUTES. BRITISH LEGION WOMEN’S SECTION. UNION OF TOWNSWOMEN'S GUILD, BRITISH LEGIONS CLUB and dozens of other reliable sources for careful distribution.
