PISTOL CAMERA FOR AERONAUTICAL OBSERVERS will never go back Into domestic serv ice. Here Is the formula for the mobili zation o f uutlonnl man power nnd na tional UnuiM'lul resources: Discharge your servunts nnd s«;e thnt they get enlisted In national service. Have the mon««y *hat you would hnve paid them In wages nnd buy war bonds. The government will pay that money to your former servunts as wages for tnuklng munitions. The rest of the money that you save by reason of cir cumscribing your domestic estubllsh- UM-nts will be deftly taken away from you by the government through Its In- strumentalltles «>f taxation nnd used to maintain the armies In France and In almost all the other quarters of the world. Another energy that Is being tupped Is the great class of women who hnve never Imagined that It was part of their life to engage Iri gainful occupation. There nr<; fewer of them In Englund by a good many hundreds o f thousands than then- were before the wur. But there ure still many of them, and the effort Is to enlist them for useful service.
