Trade News Interesting Notes of Herald end News Advertisers, Their Product and Activities As the nation's drive to make "Every American a Fighter or Worker" continues at good pace on the home front. Herald and News advertisers are playing a bigger and more vital part. Newspaper advertising today is helping build up public sup. port behind dozen of essential war activities putting the first two war loans over the top, get ting in the scrap metal and rub ber so badly needed, signing up volunteers for civilian defense and the Red Cross. Every week national manufac turers are using more space on Herald and News pages to stress civilian war activity. Current ly, for example, the National Biscuit company is featuring tin can salvage, war stamps, victory gardening and other ' home rfront jobs in a new series of advertise ments for Honey Maid Graham crackers. These advertisements, starting this week, feature large draw ings of children "doing their bit" to help the nation's. war effort. The Honey Maid Graham ads emphasize the need for nourish ing food in wartime, when chil dren as well as adults are busy 'round the clock. Food scientists and dieticians have found that Honey Maid Grahams furnish energy-building elements all children need today, besides giving a delicious honey-sweet flavor that have made them the west's most popu lar graham crackers. "What to Do in a Gas Attack" is the title of a film released by the Filmedia Corporation, New York City. The picture has been officially reviewed and passed by the office of civilian defense for national distribu tion. Prints of the film have been donated to defense councils throughout the United States by the maker of Clorox household bleach and disinfectant Show ings of the film to groups may be arranged on request to local defense councils.
