Opening a Can
The Proper Way

Did you ever try to open can of
food? Did YOU punch hole in the
top of the can, and wiggle the can
opener around, leaving a jagged edge
like a buZzsaw? Did you cut your
hand and lose your temper over the
poor inoffensive can?
If so, you will be interested to
know, once and for all, that there is
no need Of all this extra effort and
annoyance. Especially so, since
March $40 is National Canned Foods
Week.
Just remove the label from the side
of the can, until you see the seam,
which was made in forming the body
of the can.
Lay the can on it's side and pune
ture the can next to the seam with
the point of the can opener, and next
to the top of the can. Then set the
can in an upright position. insert the
can opener in the hole already made
