Ed Forfier, Civil Defense Coordinaior, Speaks 10 6 of 6

A capacity crowd of local Civil Defense department heads, City Council members, representatives ot other organizations, and regu- lar members were present at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon yesterday to hear Ed Fortier ex- plain the local role in the An chorage-area Civil Defense plans.
 Fortier, who is Civil Defense coordinator for the Anchorage area, defined Civil Defense as the protection of the home front by civilians active under civil au- thorlty to minimize casualties and war damage and preserve maximum civilian support of war efforts.
 Civil defense is necessary in the Anchorage area especially be- cause of it's proximity to Siberia only 700 air miles from An chorage. He described Anchorage as critical target area and also named Palmer as the nearest sec ondary target because of the Fix lutna project. Nagasaki, he re- minded, was a secondary target in World War II.
 The national goal is that one person out of every ten be trained for some Civil Defense job. CD services include fire fighting, medical, police, warning, com munications, warden, transporta- ton, and engineering.
 Training should concentrate first on the individual. Next a team should be trained as unit After the training of many teams, there should he combined hio operation to test coordination.
 Fortier estimated that Civll Defense services can cut casual ties by 50 percent. In Tokyo, Hir- oshima, Nagasaki, London, or Hamburg, Fortier said,' there are no wise guys who say Tt cant happen here" In Anchorage, the most eager Civil Defense work CTS are war brides from Norway, England, Germany and Italy.
 Repeating Col. Earl Landreth's description of Palmer's role in the Civil Defense program as given last week. Fortier emphasized the need for a shelter survey in the Valley in preparation for possible evacuation of the Anchorage area. He said Palmer can get the training aids, films, and medi- cines. The city may also be allo- cated some money for fire equip ment or air raid sirens. Cities are asked to raise one-fourth of the cost of their Civil Defense pro- grams.
 He finished his talk by appeal ing to the people of Palmer D help in any way they can.

Inquest Finds School Child Killed in
 Unavoidable Accident

The death of seven-year- old Sharon Lee Johnson, who was killed when struck by a truck near her Chugiak home Novem- Der l9, was due to an unavoidable accident, it was decided at a cor oner's inquest held in U. S. Com missioner Court, Anchorage, on Monday.
 The accident occurred in the late afternoon when Sharon Lee her sister Gail, g, and another child crossed the highway short ly after alighting from a school bus. Sharon Lee was killed in stantly, and Gail was injured when they were struck by the truck driven by Patton Cullison of Palmer. The other little girl escaped injury.
 Henning Johnson. the father of Sharon Lee and Gail, declared All those big trucks go too fast down that highway. It's a wonder there hasn't been something like this before" He claimed that the truck driver should have been travelling slow enough so that he could stop.
 Cullison declared that he did not see the children until they were barely 30 feet away. He tried to swerve, but because of a truck parked on the highway was un- able to miss them. A witness tes- tified that if it hadn't been for the car parked partly on the pavement, the truck driver might have missed the children alto- gether.
 Instruction Failure
 The school bus driver, James C. Park, admitted that the chil- dren had never been instructed as to the proper way to get off a school bus. According to sta- tute, the children are supposed to cross in front of the bus while he driver waits. Parks said he hadn't been informed himself about the law until after the &C., cident.
 A witness standing at the Gnu giak garage when the accident happened said that the little girls delayed their crossing long en- ough for one of them to pick up pair of dropped mittens and that by the time they crossed the highway the bus was about 200 yards away. He said further that he thought Cullison was going at a reasonable speed-not more than 35 miles per hour when the accident occurred.
 Gail Johnson is home from the hospital now. but she is still wearing a cast. ~.. i

$4, ,0OO to Go as Hospital Fund Drive Goes Into 3rd Week for Jun. l Goal

The Hospital Fund bank ac- count stood at $2,550 this week. the second of the initial drive 70 reach $6,500 by January l, as net profits from the November 24 Hospital Ball were added and the local merchants started to make their contributions for the new Valley Hospital. There are three more weeks to go.
 Ed Smith, chairman of the fund raising committee reported that the Hospital Ball netted over $I250, exclusive of profits from the two concessions. Beta Sigma Phi reported profits of $60 from their checking service, although his is not included in this weeks hospital fund bank balance. The same is true of the $55-$65 re- ported by the Legion Auxiliary hot dog, coke and coffee conces- sion. Both organizations have De- cember projects planned winch they hope will increase their con- tributionS.
 Merchants Contribute
 Neal and Marie Wright made the first merchants donation to the cause with check for $100 Other merchants and public spir- ited citizens were lining up with contributions as their means per mitted. All indications are that the community is rising to the aid of the drive.
 New fund raising ideas are coming up every day., said Hugh Johnson, treasurer of the fund raising committee.
 Johnson made a special plea to the Homemakers Council this week and extended it to all other groups:
 Get your money in soon, even if you plan to raise more after the first of the year. We'll need all we can get by January 1 if the new hospital construction is to go ahead on schedule.'
 So far, Johnson said, the fol lowing organizations and indi- viduals have contributed to the fund: Loyal Order of Moose and Women of the Moose, Sunny Knik Homemakers, St. MichaePs Altar and Rosary Society, Xii wanis Club of Palmer, A. Shy man of the Alaska Distributors Co.,, Seattle, Washington, Robert Vannon of Sutton, V. H. Martin, Neal and Marie Wright, the AR RC, Betty Mears, Donald T. Low cry, and the Hunt Mottet Hard ware of Tacoma, Washington.
 Hospital Ball a Success
 Whether or not new further projects will be undertaken this month by the fund raising com mittee will be decided Tuesday evening when members will re- view the prospects from the three weeks to go and plan according ly. The milk bottles placed in stores, bars, and public places have yielded only $65 to date. The Hospital Ball, sponsored by the committee, was considered a huge success. Quite apart from it's important financial ends, it was judged by most of those at tending to be the incest party Palmer has had in many, many moons. Highlights of the evening were the review of the Palmer High Majorettes. presented by Bandmaster John Zawalnicki; Tom Days dramatic rendition of Casey at the Bat"; and the draw ing for the 100 silver dollars in prize money. Jonesville miners cashed in on their amazing record of $500 in tickets, purchased 5y them under the inspired sales manship of Curley Doyle, when one of their members, J. H. Nor vo, won the silver with ticket No. l79. The miners union has also pledged the sum of $1,500 to- ward the hospital fund.

SKIN FOOD

When you bake a roast of
lamb, or mutton as it may be,
be sure to save the drippings.
Drain off into a receptacle, let
cool and harden. You will have
a substantial amount Of 'suet'
which you may use to wonderful
advantage as a skin food. Also,
it serves the double purpose as
an ungent for chest colds. Place
it on flannel, heat and apply at
night. Many wonderful skin
foods have as a base suet -
which can be made delightful
by adding few drops Of your

GETTING NAV IDEAS


Give some portion Of the day
70 thinking along the line of im-
proving your daily routine. The
plan you work today can be bet
tered, with thought, for tomor-
row. Don't be too easily salts
fled, for the world changes,
ideas change, and TO keep abreast
with the general trend you must
improve your own methods of
work and dealings. Because you
did a certain thing for m any
years past in a certain way is
no reason for continuing to do
so. Think, study, improve and
your life will prove more fruit
full in its effectiveness.
MAKING PEOPLE OVER
One of the surest ways to lose
friend is to attempt to make
him over. People are different.
Their faults vary and it is very
foolish to try to change an
other persons personality or
ideas to resemble your own. It
is quite likely that your friends
do not agree with you in your
own attitudes toward life. 1t
would not make you happy to
have them forever badgering
you to change. Just let other
people be themselves and learn
for themselves without your in
reference. In short, leave
people alone as you yourself
would be left alone.

one of the best methods Of
getting rid Of bald spots or thin

Lift il, move it around, thus caus-
ing the blood to circulate more
freely about the roots. Blood
is life and brings new strength

it is usually because the scalp
