Show Genius Makes His False Teeth From Cigarette Foil LONDON. False teeth from the metal foil of cigarette packages is reported as the crowning ingenuity but by no means the only one of Allied prisoners of war at a German Ger-man camp. Writing to the London Daily Mail from one of these camps, A. J. Peterson Pe-terson said: "Our food parcels from home, via the Red Cross, are grand but we welcome them not only for their contents. The twine, the paper, the cardboard boxes, the packing everything ev-erything is precious. "With the twine the boys make rope soles for their slippers. Some of the cleverer ones can fashion a complete pair of slippers out of the twine they save up. Empty tins from packages we turn into teapots and pannikins, and the packing stuffs our pillows." |
