Ahoy! says Jac~. Come right aboard llnd take the ~~lm,
I'm going ashore to see the old folks and I want my Flannel "9 be
sf)otless. 1 Between ourselves, we've been COALING-1..but n@t a
word-war is war and I know you can keep a sedret-Yes, it's dirty
stuff is coal. Whitt's happening in the North Sea? Well, there's
still a lot of weather there-more than that I dare not tell You.
But I can promise that wheQ you know ALL we've done, our fame
-but hard a'port, LUX, it's your fame- I'm talklOg about- the
fame of LUX for. washing Flannels and Woollens. Why you
make a Ilather like the Iwake of a fast cruiser, and as for the dirt,
well-er-you just ',' STRAFE" DIRT and SAVE the fabric.
