"The supply of most products is plentifui at the moment. Butâ€"says this beauty authorityâ€"save your conâ€" tainers which are made of steel and tin. The refill plan will be in effect just the moment that metals get really scarce. a woman takes the time and trouble to powder her nose, colour her lips, cream and rouge her cheeks and otherwise improve her looksâ€"she is signalling to the world, that she has faith and hope and confidence in herself and her country.

In years gone by, these came very largely from abroad. The prints of toâ€"day, however, prove the resourceâ€" fulness of Canadian manufacturers and designers. They prove that Canâ€" adians have the artistic instinct and the value of tone and colour, as well as the pioneering spirit that will supply any lack through courage, resource and talent.
