I MARCH 6IH, 1941 Advertisements. 29 ben d* Genoese. . appnachej- the English, they set up a loud shout, in order to frighten them ; but they remained quite still and did not stem to attend to it. They then set up a second shout and advanced a little forward, hut the English never moved. They hooted a third time, advancing with their cross-hows presented and began to shoot. Tbe English archers then advanced one step forward and shot their arrows with sutb force and quickness that it seimed as if it snowed." (From FROISSART's description of the Battle of Crecy). The Courage of Crecy J| he Englishman, faced with a serious situation, remains quiet and unflustered. And he is most dangerous when he is quiet. Thousands of men of that calibre are working day and night on war production with an ever-increasing momentum. Many who work at the bench all day are on guard half the night. And, what is more, they make a joke of it. That spirit permeates the whole of our Organization. For, although what is known as the Nuffield Group of Companies is assuming an increasingly important role in the country's •war effort, both the welfare and the research activities of each Company are being developed and extended. They take this in their stride . .. No one is greatly the worse for the experiences we are undergoing now. As men we shall come out of it hardened in the fire. As an industrial unit our Group will emerge enriched by technical experience which, translated into motor cars, will herald a new era in British automobilism. A country or an industrial unit which, while fighting for its life, makes time to foster the humanities of life, is worthy of the confidence the rest of the world places in it. Its credentials of leadership are safe, locked in the hearts of each and every one of its people. THE NUFFIELD ORGANIZATION MORRIS MOTORS LTD. • WOLSELEY MOTORS LTD. • THE M.G. CAR CO.
