THE OPTIMIST. 
Bless my heart and soul, why 
invite my indulgence? It's for 
Tommy, and he deserves the very 
hest, the very best. He'll march 
better, feel better, win sooner 
with "Dri-ped" to help. I don't 
mind waiting — not a bit of it. 
Not if I have to tramp the snowy 
streets in my tennis shoes . . . 
THE STRATEGIST. 
Looks bad, this Government de- 
mand for "Dri-ped." A straw 
tells the way the wind blows. 
Why are the Government using 
it ? Because it lasts long. Why 
do they want stuff that lasts 
long ? Because we're in for a long 
campaign. Now a cousin of mine 
who has a friend who knows 
sonjeone at the War Office, told 
me in confidence .... 
THE CYNIC. 
Perhaps it's a good job too. "Dri- 
ped" IS deceitful stuff. It wears 
well — I give it its due — it wears 
two or three times as long as 
ordinary leather, and keeps out 
the wet ... It wears too well 
— deludes you into the belief that 
it will last for ever. And it can't 
possibly last for ever . . .

Without it, the leather's a sub- 
stitute.
