land may have had something to
do with that. They had to manage
on three ounces of soap per person
each week. Understand that. Soap

bathing. dish-washing, washing
the family clothes and linens.
Weigh out three ounces of soap
for each member of your family
and imagine trying to get along
with that, and no more. through
a whole week.
Soap rationing or not.-and we
should be glad that it is about to
end in Britain after more than
eight years,-the fact remains
that En- land never has shown
much interest in washing ma

states has more good washers than
