"Another waster Paper and Rag Salvage will take place in Bradford Friday, June 16. The local Veterans again will make a complete tour of the village, both the business section and the residential section, in an effort to secure every scrap of waste paper in Bradford. The Need for Waste paper is not fiction - it is an absolute necessity.
Tie up all your waste paper and rags tightly so that they may be most easily handled by the collectors. Place them in a spot where they will be in plain view of the collectors from the street, and they will be taken away.
If weather is not favourable, the collection will be made the following Friday - June 23."
