Prdofiee Drill Last Night Showed Need of More
 Volunteers Here

Juneau's practice alert last night showed that many of the rough spotf of the previous week had beer ISmoothed off. As whole, it was reasonably successful. according to the Civilian Defense Board.

 The only vehicles allowed on the streets are those bearing the official insignia of the Civilian Defense Unit.
 Pedestrians also must vacate the streets and seek shelter indoors, ac- cording to the alert regulations. All persons who fail to comply with the rules hereafter, the board announced, will be arrested and charged with violation of tile city ordinance ap- plying to alerts and blackouts.
 Last nights drill also showed that more civilian defense volunteers are needed at once. Ambulance drivers are scarce, and women who can drive trucks competently are urged to vol unteer for that work. More men also are needed as stretcher bearers, auxiliary firemen and auxiliary po- lice A number of women also are urged to sign up as stenographers to aid in the clerical work of the organization.
 Registration cards may be obtain ed at the City Hall or at any drug store in town
 It also was announced that all sergeants of air raid workers who have extra arm band insignias should turn these in at the Civilian Defense Units headquarters, since shortage exists.
 It was reported that the Marine Patrol Divisions turnout for the alert was poorer last night than during the drill of the previous week. Members of the Marine Patrol should report without fail to their boats as soon as the alarm sounds.

Hand Lotions, Explosives
Glycerin and glycerin-and-rose
water, two additionally popular
remedies for chapped hands, may
actually aggravate this condition
according to several authorities.
And since glycerin is needed for
explosives, there seems to be no
justification for either it's use or
manufacture for cosmetic purposes.
Alcohol, used for gunpowder and
synthetic rubber, and present in
excessive quantity in some hand To-
tions, is also detrimental rather
than beneficial to chapped hands.
Don't waste hand lotions and
creams by using too generously.
A drop of lotion per application is
all you need. And don't use so
much cream you have to wipe off
excess or spend at least three min
utes rubbing it into your hands,

Anti-Grime Cream War-Vital
Glycerin and Alcohol Are Harmful
for Chapped Hands
Men and women whose jobs in
volve heavy, manual labor may be
interested in the invisible glove"
products which are supposed to
protect hands from grease, CRIME,
paint, etc.
Such preparations are applied be-
fore you begin working and when
washed off are supposed to take
the grease and paint off too. Appli-
cations last for three or four hours.
Of four products compared, Du-
Points Pro-Tek, a white cream, had
the lowest cost per ounce.
This department was unable to
learn the ingredients of this cream.
Neither could we find out whether
it was supposed to prevent or re-
ieve chapped hands. The label says
nothing about preventing or re-
lieving chapped hands.
Checking on the efficiency of
invisible gloves" as protection
against heavy grease and paint,
four industrial firms were asked
about such products. Representa-
