He refilled his canteen from the tap/faucet.
In addition to the usual rations, food is provided in works' canteens to meet the special needs of heavy workers.
Furthermore, there are 100,000 small factories which have no canteens.
There are canteens in the camps from which sweets and some tobacco can be purchased, but stocks are very limited.
Cannot canteens, barracks, camps, hostels and other public places be induced to put on one meal a week of herring?
I am advised that the rations for miners, together with the food provided for their canteens, are nutritionally sufficient for their needs.
The scale of allowances of food to pithead canteens provides sufficient variety for preparing food and satisfactory meals.
Where canteens are provided, it is fair to expect that they should be used.
I am aware that railwaymen want more canteens than it has been possible to provide.
