Be Prepared For An Emergency
Accidents strike quickly and unexpectedly . . . they
should be counteracted with the same lightning speed!
They are the backbone of the fifth column and hack out
thousands of working hours from our concentrated war
program! It is vitally important that every home, fac-
tory and business organization be equipped with coin-
plete First Aid supplies to avert serious complications
from minor or major injuries.
