Guard your family's health! Learn about the new wartime foods in a nutrition class
A large red sprayed disc carries the white headline 'guard your family's health!' above the line 'Learn about the new wartime foods in a NUTRITION CLASS. Enroll at', with blank space left for a local address. The technique is faint here: it is an enrolment notice that pairs family welfare with a wartime service, and presents classes as the only option named.
