8 Major Types
0fAeridiBombs;
What Each Does

There are eight major types of
aerial bombs: armor piercing,
demolition, augmentation, aerial
mines, incendiary, gas, aerial gun
fire and the torpedo. The ones
used against civilians and their
characteristics:
Demolition bombs, used chiefly
against buildings and light fortifi-
cations. Because of good pene-
tration and heavy blast, IL causes
damage by blast. splinters and
earth shock. Most of them have
delayed action fuses running from
a fraction of a second to several
hours. They range-in weight from
100 to 4,OO0'pounds.
The augmentation bomb is used
against personnel and transport.
The case is designed TO shatter
into small fragments easily upon
exploding. Because of it's light
weight usually 30 pounds--it does
not penetrate deeply and thus,
with it's instantaneous fuse II
splinters into multitudinous pieces
when il strikes the earth or any
object.
OF all the explosive bombs, the
aerial mine has perhaps proved
the most effective against civilian
centers. 1t is used chiefly against
light material such as densely
built residential areas. To reduce
the penetration. a parachute IS
used TO reduce the velocity of it's
fall TO about 80 miles an hour. IL
has an instantaneous fuse of "A
very sensitive type, and il has an
intense blast effect upon striking
on object. This type OF bomb
ranges in weight from 1000 TO
5000 pounds.
Aerial gunfire, while used chiefly
against personnel. may also cause
considerable damage TO light tile
roofs. skylights and windows. The
attack may come from machine
gun and cannon mounted on the
plane Damage may also be caused
by falling fragments OF anti-air-
craft fire.

Urge Families
To Ready Room
For BId(kouts

Every householder should begin
now preparing for blackout by
selecting one room where the fam
ily can make itself comfortable
from the time of the alert warm
ing until the "all clear" is given.
These preparations need not cost
a cent, and while they are not
elaborate they must be thorough.
The kitchen generally is recon-
mended as the most convenient
blackout room because OF the
availability of food and water and
because most kitchens have two
exits. Simplest method of maxi
ing the room lightproof is to tack
blankets or other heavy material
over the windows so that not even
a suspicion of light is visible from
the outside. The blankets also
will protect against SCATTERING
windows. With these precautions
observed, members of the family
can knit, sew. play cards or merely
rest while an air raid is in progress.
TURN OUT LIGHTS
Some families may prefer TO
establish blackout quarters in the
basement. However, most base
ments have only one exit and per-
sons might be trapped with this
exit blocked. Usually there are
more windows requiring blackout
treatment in the basement, and
escaping gas from broken pipes
would collect there.
At the first air raid warning
members Of the family should
turn out all lights in the house
and hurry to the designated black
out room. Appointment of a
monitor, preferably mother Is sug-
gested to double check on extin-
guishment of lights. Outside gar
den or porch lights should be re-
moved so that they are not turned
on by mistake.
SUPPLY OF CANDLES
All lights near an outside door,
and lights near interior doors lead
ing from the kitchen, must be
screened so that no light is visible
IL the doors must be opened dur
ing the blackout period. The
blackout room should have sup
ply of candles or flashlights.
While an effective blackout may
not conceal the presence of cities,
ii does conceal the pattern Of
streets and centers Of activities
and will handicap the enemy in
locating specific detectives.

The draft has really put the spot. There
time when it fashionable to look little pale
and undernoised and it wasn't absolutely suicidal to be
slightly shouldered That because most of the
the same boat But now believe you me, since

The next time you see group of
soldiers notice how lean-muscled
and clear-skinned they look. Almost
handsome everyone of them.
And don't miss that posture 1000.
why they actually strut when they
walk. That means just one thing,
ladies, we've got to fall in life if we
expect anything that resembles
tumble out Of any of them So, here
goes! FORWARD MARCH!
First, let's take some tips on
posture from Uncle Sans camp.
Stand up straight, tuck in your
tummy, lift your ribs off your hips
you're supposed to have waist,
you know throw out your chest,
keep your back straight and draw
in that chin. Now hold it! Feels
uncomfortable, doesn't it?
But don't become discouraged,
just keep trying and you'll soon be
doing it without thinking. Here is a
good posture test. Stand with your
back to wall and press your whole
body firmly against it. If you touch
the wall all the way down (nclud-
ing your middle, your posture is
OK.
If there is big space left between
the wall and your waist, you're
sway-backed. To correct this COM
mon posture fault, throw your hips
forward when you stand, sit and
walk. This brings your body into
perfect balance and gives you a
straight, alert look. Now let's check
those shoulders.
Do this exercise in three counts.
One, raise your shoulders as high
as you can. Two, throw your shoul-
ders back as far as you can Three,
relax -. letting your arms fall
easily to your sides. Notice how it
raises your chest and straightens
your back. That's the way your
shoulders should be at all times,
whether standing or sitting.
And here are some other rules
from the army that we women
would do well to follow. Eat prop
erly, exercise every day Outdoors
as much as possible), and get
enough shuteye. If you are inclined
to be pudgy, temper your diet. Go
light on the starchy and fatty
foods an deaf as many fresh fruits
and vegetables as possible. If you
are on the thin side, eat all the
rich foods you want along with
an ample amount of vegetables and
fruits.
For your exercise, don't stop at a
few daily dozens; but make habit
Of walking several blocks each day.
