PRESERVING THE PAPER SUPPLY

Formerly food products We're sold
from barrels and jars and carried home
by purchasers in big paper bags each
containing good sized quantities.
Now these products are piled up on
the shelves in the grocery store. Each
has it sfancy colored little box. 1t sells
at a higher price, because it looks pref.
tier and more snappy. When You buy
it the clerk needlessly wraps it up in
another sheet Of paper Every time
you buy goods on this system. you help
waste the paper supply. This makes
newspapers and all other paper using
products cost more. !,
1t may not be possible to persuade
people to go back to the old system of
buying in bulk out of a barrel. which is
good economy if you have a clean gro
cer If people would buy larger pack
ages each. time, and tell the clerk not
to waste piece of wrapping paper in
doing it up. they could do lot to keep
down the price Of all paper using goods.
