HUGE ARMADA OF
 NAZI BOMBERS
Swept Over London Three Times, But Are All
 Driven Back
BY WALLACE CARROLL

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 London, August 31-(UP)-Huge formations of German warplanes swept over London today, causing three air raid alarms. Today's bombing of the London area ap- parently was Germans most de. termined effort to knock out the Royal Air Force.
 Before two p. m. three powerful German air fleets had raced across the southeast coast and on towards London, but the British claimed that they had been thrown back ir disorderly flight by anti-aircraft guns and fighters plans.
 An alarm at 1:04 p. m., which lasted until the all clear wa: sounded at 1:59 p. nn., was London's seventh in a little more than 24 hours.
 During the third alarm the drone of German war planes was heard distinctly in the London area, fol- lowed immediately by the sound oi machine gun fire which indicated the British fighters had swarmed up to attack the raiders.
 Raids on the London area coin. cided with attacks on towns on the southeast coast and inland and from one point it was reported that Geman airmen had machine gunned women shoppers accom- panied by children.
 Whole Block Afire
 In one London district a whole block of working class apartments was set afire but most of the ten ants had taken refuge in shelters Bombs were falling in one district even while firemen were fighting fires.
 One plane dived from clouds without warning on one town 1T ffS@..kfas.arl ..s nooo Al

lie auction, beginning Feb. 10.
Former owners will be given ev-
cry possible opportunity to regain

tended by the board.
These properties, which revert
ed to the state because OF tax-de-
linquencies, will be offered for sale

vision that no bid OF less than rs
per cent OF the 1888 assessed valua-
ton will be accepted. Purchasers

the property must pay cash for the
full amount OF their bid within "a
hours. whereas. former owners may

In no case less than SIS. The ball
arce OF the contract may be paid

ty treasurer's.

PHYSIOLOGY or SKIN or

| PHYSIOLOGY OF SKIN OIL The healthy comfort, efficiency and beauty of the skin, and incidentally of the hair, depends to a consider able degree on the function of the sebaceoNs glands, which is to pro- duce and pour or spread over the skin and hair the protective, beauti- flying sebum or skin oil.
 Sebum is produced in from two to three million sebaceous or oil glands which lie under the skin of the whole body surface except the soleS and palms. The ducts or out lets of the sebaceous glands open on I the surface of the skin in the mil mute depression TO well around the shafts or roots of hairs, as a rule, and through the same opening the lSweat exudes. Being so intimately mingled, the composition of the se- bum or skin oil from two or three million sebaceous glands is difficult Ito distinguish from the composition of an equal number of sudoriferous or sweat glands. The sebuYn mixes Iwell with water, just as lanolin
 (wool fat) does. Specimens of sebum collected for analysis consist of Iabout two-thirds water and one third fatty material made up of palmatin, olein, fatty acids (which Icontribute to the characteristic lodor) soaps, cholesterol, esters, al-
 bumins and organic salts.
 The cholesterol in sebum is con- Iverted into vitamin D by ultravio- llet irradiation, as when the choles- Iterol is exposed to direct sunlight Tor to ultraviolet rays from an arti-
 flcial source. Because water, and
 especially soap and water, removes Emore or less cholesterol from the skin, the question arises whether an ,l individual derives less benefit from
 exposure to ultraviolet if he washes
 the skin thoroughly with soap and
 water than he does if he just rubs
 down with a dry towel after the sunbath. My own opinion is that lit is insignificant whether he : chooses to scrub away every trace of sebum (and the irradiated cho- lesterol or vitamin D in it) or con- tent himself with just going through the motions, because the vitamin D 7 produced by ultraviolet light in the skin can't be washed away anyway,
 and the vitamin D produced by ut-
 trayiolet light in the Sebum which
 may be washed away cannot be of
 any use to the individual anyway. Once sebum has been secreted by the sebaceous glands it simply can't be absorbed again, vitamins or no vitamins. This is rudimentary phy- siology and no one has educed any
 scientific evidence to refute it.
 Far be it from me to urge more bathing. On the contrary I believe great many squeamish geeks do
 too much wet washing of the body for the good of their health, and at
 the same time know that millions of people do not wash their hands with soap and water as often as
 they should for the good of their
 health.
 The sebum or skin oil serves to
 keep the skin soft smooth. pliable
 and warm and to protect it against
 irritants. It is indispensable for l beauty. No substitute cream" or makeup can equal 1t. Young skins
 generally have enough or some l times too much sebum, and there fore should NOT be subjected to | artificial oil, grease or cream" of
 any kind. Old skins are old and
 look it because they generally have
