"V
Just one tablesp(X)n a day of the used cooking fats you save
in your kitchen.
That amount alope will fire five machine-gun bullets at a Jap
or a Nazi—may mean the difference between life and death for
someone you know. .
‘ Saved day after day, that single tablespoon, qf used fat will
make a real contribution—your contribution— to victory.
You ftnow why. used fats are needed—because they contain
glycerine and glycerine is vital in making gunpowder. Our normal
supply of fats and oils has been cut off ever since the Japs moved
in on the islands of the Far £^&t. But that loss can be made up by
used fats saved in American kitchens.
Get all the cooking good you can from them first. But then-
after you can no longer use them—pour your used fats into a can.
The minute the can is full, rush it to your meat-dealer. If you’d
like to know what happens to them from there on out, just take
a look at the pictures on this page.
