WWII, life on the Home Front

Three ads from the War Years, as published in the Ottawa Citizen —

August 5 1943


September 27 1944

Two ads depict women "working outside the home" while the men were off fighting overseas. 

I don't know how buying fresh green beans was supposed to help the war effort, but I'm sure it made sense at the time.
