~ We can't take your Awnives down |

¢ + / 2,

For the first time in 40 years we can Vt take down and store .your awnings this Fall.

Today we are making haversacks for Uncle Sam’s fighting men . . . these haversacks our fighters carry blankets, food, clothing and even shelter — as well as other necessities. This new job of ours takes every ounce of 0 nergy. : commands our every resource. . . and all our manpower and

But, just the same .: . your awnings ought to come down soon, and be proses and conserved, wom

In the hope of belts helpful we are giving this friendly warning, and making certain definite suggestions. _ The freezing weather of Winter, with its snow, wind, rain and ice, destroys awnings... Right now, there is no telling just when you can buy new ones. It is greatly to your advantage to save those you have—to protect them—to get them down and under cover before Winter begins whacking them.

* ok SPA ; Some day, of course, we expect to make awnings for you again, and to give you our former service in taking them down, storing them, and putting them back up, in Fall and Spring. | But for the duration of the war we're at work for Uncle Sam . » trying in eyery possible way to help win the war. wn We've even had to put up tents to shelter some of our new operations. There are ways to do whatever has to be done. America is resourceful. America | has what it takes. So have we all . ; . each and every one.

Suggestions to Help SAVE YOUR AWNINGS
