KATE SMITH asked to write this message on Saving Used Fats! ' ■ ■ -i'M “The help of trery women ia needed in earing uled fate for hundrdda of battlefield and home front essentials. But some of cm don't know ad the ways we can do it. Here are a few points Tre found helpful.”—Kate Smith MANY WOMEN JAY: “But I never have fata left over." Certainly it's good economy to reuse your fats... but there's always some left over even after that...and that little is more important than you can imagine. Only one tablespoonful of used fat will help ' make 5 machine-gun bullets. So there just can’t ever be too little - to save! Come on, everybody, scrape your broiling pan, your roaster, skillet. Save meat trimmings and scraps of fat left on plates. OTHERS TELL MEt "But my fata are often too dark to turn in." It doesn’t make a mite of difference how dark or blackened ...or what smelly things like onion or fish you’ve cooked in your fat. Every drop of it will help make parachutes, synthetic rubber, soaps for the fighting and war fronts. Don’t feel ashamed to hand it in to your butcher. If you save every bit of fat you possibly can, you’re doing a job to be proud of! THEN YOU HEAR: “But what aort of container willl use?*' Any kind of tin can will do. The next time you open a can of fn£fe.. or juice or soup or vegetables, save it. But please don’t use glaif >' ...it almost always breaks and makes the fat difficult to salvage. When the can is full, take it to your butcher. For every pound, you’ll get 2 red points. If you have any difficulty disposing of your fats, call your Home Demonstration or County Agent. ?vY Appro txdby WFA and OPA. Paid Jar by Industry ' ‘U*. >• . ’ (Official V. 8.
