COLLECTION OF SCRAP
EXHIBITION IN MASTERTON. STEADY STREAM OF VISITORS. “Help to tighten the screws on Hitler. Send in your old brass screws,” reads a slogan displayed among the exhibition of waste material and products made from scrap, at present being presented in Messrs Hugo and Shearer’s shop, Masterton. There has been a steady stream of visitors to view the exhibit since it was opened on Monday. Many reminders are given that every little bit helps. For instance, if all old telephone directories in New Zealand were saved, the paper contained in them would be worth over £3OO. In response to Aunt Daisy’s appeal, over 21,000 Yale keys have been sent in. The public is urged to save all bottles for collection in the near future as there is a serious shortage of bottles in New Zealand. Everyone should make a point of visiting the exhibition, which will remain open until the end of this week.
