MANY THOUSANDS

OF THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS
INDUSTRIAL FIRMS, TECHNICAL

EXPERTS, CHIEF ENGINEERS, ETC.,

USE THE PATENTED ULTRA LENS

as part of their standard equipment in their inspection,
production control and purchasing departments, for the
close scrutiny of metals, fabrics, fibres, minerals, cutting-
tools, raw materials and innumerable other purposes, with
excellent results.

The patented ULTRA LENS is an Electric
Super-Magnifying-Lens of great merits
and of the most modern design.
Every detail is revealed in natural
colouring with startling exactness.
The powerful magnification, the self-
contained light, giving a daylight effect
and reproducing the natural colours,
make the ULTRA LENS a most efficient
instrument for the minute examination
of every conceivable object.

It enables the user to obtain valuable
data and important facts under the most
difficult and unfavourable working
conditions-even in absolute darkness,
as it is independent of any other source
of light.

All sorts of tests can be made instantly,
with a facility which no other means
provides.

Immensely Practical, beautifully made. It pays
for itself in the first few months.

Current Accounts are Opened and Fixed Deposits are Received
at Rates of Interest which may be ascertained on Application.

The Nation's Pledge

to recognise its debt of gratitude to ex-servicemen. As LORD HAIG reminded the Public "The terms of the bond were simple, clear and perfectly well understood by every man and woman in the land. They were, that no man who went out to fight for his country in the crisis of its fate should be in a worse position on his return to civil life and that the dependants of those who fell should be amply and fittingly cared for."

EARL

HAIG'S

BRITISH LEGION

APPEAL FUND

exists to help the carrying out of the Nation's pledge. All moneys subscribed by the public to EARL HAIG'S (British Legion) APPEAL FUND are devoted solely to one or another of the benevolent activities of the British Legion. These activities cover a wide field, and include the relief of distress amongst ex-servicemen of all ranks, their dependants, and the widows and orphans of those who fell, such essential services as finding them employment, assisting and advising them on questions relating to pensions, granting loans, free of interest, to enable them to establish businesses, providing the means to enable them to emigrate, giving them free legal advice on housing, employment, and similar matters, helping to educate the children, and so give them a fair start in life, and serving generally to discharge the obligations incurred through the National Pledge.

Donations are urgently needed to help the "carrying on" of this vital work. Please send a Donation to
