to
Passengers on the tra'ns. High Barnet pass through every day, seeing its walls gleam in the light from their carriages. Other stations on the route are crowded with men, women and children seeking shelter from air raids, but Highgate is always empty.
There seems to be
по гел- son why passengers should not be allowed · to leave traina at Highgate if they want to stay the night thore,
even if the street entrances and exits are not completed.
If people seeking chelter were allowed to go to an un used station like Highgate proa sure on stations being used by the travelling public would be much rellovod.
All that the London Passenger Transport Board would say in reply to the question why High- gate station was not being used as a shelter was: "All matters concerned with the use of the Underground as a shelter are un- der consideration.".
Cheerfulness
comes
$ from Strong Nerves and Restorative Sleep
Two essentials for maintaining a cheerful and confident. outlook on life are strong nerves and restorative sleep. To ensure these, there is definitely nothing like 'Ovaltine,'
The pre-eminence of 'Ovaltine' for strengthening the nervous system and giving restorative sleep has been amply demonstrated by independent scientific tests. It would be impossible to claim superiority over 'Ovaltine' in any respect whatever.
The nature and quality of the ingredients and the pro- portions used are of the utmost importance in determining the value of a food beverage. The ingredients of 'Ovaltins' conform to the supremely high standard of quality set by the famous 'Ovaltine' Fams.
Ho Tan, 40, charged with a similar offence, was sentenced to two months' hard labour.

Remember that 'Ovaltine' is a complete food containing the essential vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates and mineral sal's in correct proportions. For s'eep, for nerves, for fitness 'Ovaltine' definitely stands in a class by itself. Although Paid-up Capital imitations are made to look the same, there are very impor- ¦ deserve, Fund tant differences
'Ovaltine' does not contain any Household Sagar. Furthermore, it does not contain Starch. Nor
does it contain a large percentage of Cocoa..
It sugar is required for sweetening, you can always add it to Ovaltins' yoursel. This is obviously the most satis- factory and economical way, Because of its supreme quality ́and concentrated goodness 'Ovaltlue" is mort economical fo use. For all these reasons make 'Ovaltine' your constant stand-by.
