Description: |
A flag flying from the porch of a house tells people that a war worker is asleep inside, so they should be quiet. All around, people are making noise. Children bang on a drum, dogs bark, drivers honk their horns, and people yell to one another. The elephant says it is hard enough to sleep during the day in the summer even without the noise. A penguin adds that people need to be quiet at night too. Image Access WideTEK 25 A flag to designate homes of war workers whose sleep should not be disturbed. Quiet. War Worker Asleep. Honk onk. Toot. Honk onk. Oh! Gussie. And so too at night. Lets stop all noise. Sleeping during day in the summer is no snap under any conditions. [in margins: Stop needles noise. Courier 3 column 6/1/42] |
