Cut them out!

1 Jan 1942

414 CUT THEM OUT! Do you know that two 40-watt lamps require 11/4 cwts. of coal in a year's average use? This means that if a million households used two lamps less, the country would be better off by 60,000 tons of coal. If all of us halved our lighting, the saving would mean hundreds of thousands of tons of coal for vital war production. Start to-night. If you can't halve your lighting by reducing the number of lamps—use lower-powered bulbs. LESS LIGHTS —MORE GUNS ISSUED BY THE MINISTRY OF FUEL AND POWER.
