WHAT SCIENCE IS DING 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 was not until 1934, however, that cod liver oil began to be used extern- ally in modern medicine, In that year a German physician named Lehr published the results of his clinical experiments. In 1936 two Russian doctors reported that they had used a cod liver o11 ointment In 203 cases of various wounds and burns with dramatic recov eries. Now comes Dr. R. H. Aldrich 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 as effective as 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 Babe to become easily infected. Dr. Aldrich's results with cod liver oil were better than those obtain- ed by scab -formers swop as tannic acid, which are uncomfortable and provide not ideal scaffolding for infection. How Can I? By Anne Ashley Q. How should I dry a wet fur coat? A. When one has been caught in the rain and the fur coat is very wet, never try to dry it near the heat. Instead, place the coat on a hanger and hang by an open window. When dry, brush the coat thoroughly with a stff brush. Q. How large a lemon should be used if a recipe calls for the juice of one lemon? A. It is far safer to use three tablespoonfuls of lemon juice. The size of lemons and the amount of juice yielded vary so much, that a measured amount is often profitable. Q. How can I remove iodine stains? A. An iodine stain can be re- moved by rubbing the spot with baking soda, Q. How can I avoid burning the Engere when removing a hot dish from the oven? A. Do not use a damp of wet cloth or holder iu removing a hot dish from the oven or stove. A dry one prevents the heat from penetrating and scorching the lin- gers. Q.

Llewellin, :former minister of aircraft production, announced that Britain trebled her heavy bomber output in 1042, and "for' every :100 tans of aircraft pro. diced in September we produced 110 tons in October, These fig: Ores are good," he said in an: ad- dress, "but they artist go on get - ti n et -ting betters„ In the Ittrst'Great Wit' 00,050 New Zealanders served oversees, sufl'ering er'ISualtles of 50 Kai. Nazis Set Booby Traps In Desert Rommel's late position at El Alamein 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. 24 the Marshal's craftsmen haven't had much time to devote to these cunning works of art.

That is why he is sad now. He fears these idle years will cause the skill of the ringers to rust with their un swinging bells. But I find the bellringers are keeping their hands in.

Mr. Willkie spoke in Toronto recently in launching Canada's dominion- wide "Aid to Russia 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 getting 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 be made into vests for mem- bers -of the merchant marine. This is a movement that las been under way in the United States for some time. Its adoption hero is a splendid idea. Peaple are being urged to turn in their old fur garments, and hunters are asked to contribute the pelts of all animals they kill. There should be an immense stock of furs avail- able for this purpose, and there should be an instant response to the request that they be contri- buted. Skin from flounders is being used in Holland for shoe leather and to repair automobile tires.

He mentioned that in some parts of the • country bellringers have tide 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 bellringer friend points out that the bearings are .regularly oiled., and the metal work cleaned. The bells are ready for parachutists or peace—arid in either event I do not suppose his hearers will be critical if he pulls a quick one badly, SPEAKERS DREAD LOSS OF VOICE Fight off hoarseness with use of Lymoids "Hoarseness is a speaker's worst enemy," writes a Montreal announcer.

Have You Heard? The professor had been dining out, and, as host 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 ae1'ess a scarecrow with arms widespread. Memories of tine "tall" stories he bad heard that night floated' back' to him, and he halted in front 'of the scarecrow. "My dear sir,". he exclaimed, "I simply refuse 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.

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 says 'they'll have to see us through the rest of the week." ' Witness: "I'ni not' guilty. My wife can prove a lullaby." Judge: "Alibi, you mean."

To Mass -Murder Half Polish Jews Only 40,000 Jews Now Re- main ins Warsaw Ghetto The Polish Government said that Heinrich Meunier, Nazi Ges- tapo c'bied, had ordered the -ex• termination of one-half of the Jewish population of Poland by tile end of this Year, and that 250,000 had been killed through Septem' Der under that program. "According to information leak- ing from the, German labor office only 40,000 Tows are to remain in the .Warsaw Ghetto—only, thor- oughly skilled worker8 to be em- ,ployed in the German wan' 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 Dards were printed; for October, the number 'issued was only 40,- 000." The statement said that those marked for extermination at any time are "driven t0 a square where old people and cripples are segre- gated, taken. 'to a cemetery and shot," "The remainder," it said, "are loaded into freight ears, 150 to a car intended 'for 40.

Other times it waits on a siding for days. "The people are packed so tight- ly ightly 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."
