Family in council

182 Father: Well, Mother! Balanced the budget yet? Mother: Balanced it? Just take a look at the figures. See what I've saved last month. Son: You're marvellous, Mum! How do you manage it? Mother: Oh, I've made it my duty — saving a bit here, a bit there, giving up all sorts of things I find we can do without. Father: That's the spirit. Every little helps. Whenever we resist the temptation to buy something we can do without, we release material and labour which is needed in the munition factories.
