It was one of more than HOOO entered in Nation- al War 1'oster contest held by Museum of Modern Art, New York. WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING COD LIVER OIL Fishermen have long recognized that cod liver oil sooths and heals wounds, frostbites and skin lesions, notes The New York Times. It wa not until 1934, however, that cod liver oil began to be usexl extern- ally in modern medicine. In that year a Gorman physician named l.ohr published the results of bis clinical experiments. In iy3C two Russian doctors reported that they had used a cod liver oil ointment in 263 LI-., of various wounds and burns with dramatic recov- eries. Now conies Or. R. H. AJdrich of the Harvard Medical School with the results of an eight-year study of a 70 per cent cod liver oil ointment in treating wounds' and burns. He finds cod liver oil, as a wound dressing, safe and aa effective a* the sulfa compounds. The experience of the British Air Force- has shown that face burns present a difficult problem. The skin of the face Is extremely thin and contains more sweat glands and hair openings than other parts of the body. Because of the nose and mouth, face wounds are llabe to become easily Infected. I>r. Aldrlch'H results with cod liver oil were better than those obtain- ed by scab-formers such as lannlc acid, which are uncomfortable and provide an Ideal scaffolding for Infection. How Can I?

Uewelliii, former minister of aircraft production, announced that Hi-Mum trebled her hcitvy bomber output in HI42, and "for very 100 ton* of aircraft pro- duced in September we produced J10 tons in October.

Nazis Set Booby Traps In Desert UoiiiiiuTs late position at El Alaniein was found to be strewn with booby-traps, says the New York Times. The Germans are as clever at making them as they were in World War I; innocent- looking helmets, pocket knives, fountain pens, left lying around (or perhaps a broom behind the door of an abandoned and very filthy hut), attached by thread or wire to hidden grenades. Since Oct. 2-1 the Marshal's craftsmen haven't had much time to devote to these cunning works of art. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Le 1. la It good manners to hold a bite of food suspended on the fork while talking? 2. Should a man light a girl's clgarettu before lighting his own? 3. Is It necessary to thank a doorman when he opens the door for you? 4. What should one do when a person In a group makes a glar- ing conversational blunder? 5. When a young man Is going to take a girl to a picnic, how should he tell her that the girls are expected to bring the lunch? 6. W'hwi making reference to a servant In the household should one refer to her an "hired girl" or "help"? ANSWERS 1. No; this Is very bad form. 2. Yes. Me should hold the match for a few moments until the sul- phur fumes are gone, then hold it for her. 3. No. This Is merely a routine service that he performs hundreds of times a day, and he does not expect to be thanked each time. 4. The tactful person who notices such a blunder will immediately change the subject. 5. Merely say, "The girls are go- ing to bring a little lunch. Do you think you could bring a few sand- wiches, or whatever you like? 6. Neither. Refer to her as "the maid." Bells Kept Ready For War or Peace British Bellringers Oil Bear- Ings and Clean Metal Work Bob is an old Vo kshire bell- ringer. He lived for the science of campanology until the war came to silence the belfry. I might say Bob has always wrunjj his pleasure out of life. That is why he is sad now. He fears these idle years will cause the skill of the rinjfers to rust with their un- swingin); bells. But I find the huilringcrs lire keeping their hands in. 1 was told yesterday by a man who has been rinpinjy over 60 years, and who talks of bellrinping as though Wendell Willkie, number one civilian traveller in the United States, and Mrs. Willkie hud their American TlmnkstriviriK "on wheels" when returning to New York from Toronto on their special railroad car with their host, K. C. Vaughan, chairman anil president, Canadian National Railways, with whom the Willkies are shown above. Mr. Willkic spoke in Toronto recently in launching Canada's dominion-; wide "Aid to Ku*sia Fund." Furs Are Wanted For Seamen's Vests Not only hunters, but all classes of citizens, have an opportunity to help along an endeavor which is now (retting under way in Can- ada, for the benefit of some of our most gallant fighting men, says the Windsor Star. An ap- peal has gone out for furs that can bo made into vests for mem- bers of the merchant marine. This i a movement that lias been under way in the United Slates for some lime. Us adoption here is splendid iden. People are lieing urged lo turn \n their old fur garments, and hunters arc asked to contribute the pelts of nil animals thoy kill.

I'ttnne him it were a mathematical problem, that they manage to put in a little rehearsing with hand bells. He mentioned that in .tome parts of the country bullringers have tido the clappers so that they could pull the ropes as usual in their complicated peels, but without a sound above. These ghostly re- hearsals at least enable them to avoid losing that "feel" of a bell which is so important. No, by the by, are the bells rusting. My bcllringei friend points out that thu bearings are regularly oiled and the metal work cleaned. The bells arc ready for parachutists or peace- and in either event I do not suppose his hearers will bo critical if he pulls H quick one badly.

Made Have You Heard? The professor had been dining out, and, as most of the guests were ardent fishermen, he had had to listen all the evening to stories of the size of their catches. He was extremely short-sighted, and as he was crossing a field on his way home he came across a scarecrow with arms widespread. Memories of the "tall" stories he had heard that nitfht floated back to him, and he halted in front of the scarecrow. "My dear sir," he exclaimed, "I simply reftise to believe you; there never was a trout that length." New Uncle (by marriage) Well, Tommy, I've met all your brothers except the old- est, George. What side of the house does he look like? Tommy Gorp? Oh, he's the one with the bay window. A member of a Ladies' Aid Society in a small town went to the bank to deposit, as she told the banker, "some aid money." Unfortunately the banker thought she said "egg money," and replied: "remarkable, isn't it, how well the old hens are doing these daya?" Then he couldn't understand why the woman gathered up her passbook and hurried from the bank! Little Boy: "Half a peck of potatoes with eyes, please." Grocer: "Why with eyes?" "Mother jays they'll have to see us through the rest of the week." My Witness: "I'm not guilty, wife can prove a lullaby." Judge: "Alibi, you mean." Witness: "Be^gino; your pardon, it was a lullaby; at two o'clock on the morning in question 1 was walking the floor "with the baby." A woman who fasted for 62 days. To prove that the stunt could be done. From hundreds of Scots- . men had letters of praise, And proposals from seven- ty one. "Ha! ha!" laughed the recruit. "You can't fool me. I know they've got potato-peeling ma- chines in this army." "Yes, smart chap," replied the sergeant, "and you're the latest model!" To Mass-Murder Half Polish Jews Only 4O.OOO Jews Now Re- main in Warsaw Ghetto The Poll&h Government said that Heinrlch Himmler, Nazi Ges- tapo chief, had ordered the ex- termination of one-half of the Jewish population of Poland by the end of this year, and that 250,000 had been killed through Septem- ber under that prog-ram. "According to information leak- ing from the German labor office only 40,000 Jews are to remain in the Warsaw Ghetto only thor- oughly skilled workers to be em- ployed in the German war indus- try," a government statement said. The most convincing proof of the dwindling numbers in the Ghetto lies in the fact that for September, 1942, 130,000 ration cards were printed; for October, the number issued was only 40,- 000." The statement said that those- marked for extermination at any time are "driven to a square where old people and cripples are segre- gated, taken to a cemetery and f-hot." "The remainder," ft said, "are loaded into freight cars, 150 to a car Intended for 40. The floor on the car is sprinkled with a thick layer of lime or chlorine-sprinkled water. The doors of the cars are sealed. Sometimes the train 'starts immediately. Other times it waits on a siding for daya. "The people are packed so tight- ly that those who die of suffoca- tion remain in the crowd side by side with those still living. Half of the people arrive dead at the destination. Those surviving are sent to special camps. Once there they are mass-murdered." "A paratroop haa to under- go very exhausting training," states an Army man. He cer- tainly has to keep at it until he is fit to drop. SAFES IT.M.-.I j,.uc HOOKS miJ < (Mi from I nil aad limits w have slse <! type of Sure, or ( M net. for 1117 purpoae.
