Oiled Hands Are
Quickly Cleaned
BY ALICIA HART
Oil rubbed lightly and sparingly
over housework-begrimed hands
makes embedded dirt easier to
float off. Mineral oil—any com
mon variety—will do to use be
fore you dunk hands into suds. It
helps soap do more than a surface
job of cleaning.
That’s a tip for the woman who
says she keeps tossing protective
gloves aside because they hamper
her movements.
If you can’t stand to have your
touch blunted by gloves — they’re
yorr best protection against win
tei -dry skin, chipping nails or
charwoman’s knuckles — wear
cream under your gloves. The
plus value will be something to
show in hands when they flutter
over a tea table or finger bridge
cards.
Putting your creamed hands to
bed in a pair of protective gloves
—even if they do make you look
like Mr. Bones in the minstrel
show—is the best way to make
hard-working hands look like a
pampered pair.
SOCIAL SITUATIONS
THE SITUATION: You are In
vited to an open house between
the hours of 4 and 6 and you ar
rive at 4. By 5 the house is crowd
ed with guests.
WRONG WAY: Stay until 6—
or even later, if there are still
guests around at 6.
RIGHT WAY: Leave at 5. If
guests who arrive early leave
after an hour, there is more room
for the late-comers.

found in *o many American homes

SPECIAL HEALTH
WEEK IS OPENED
“How is our health?”
This question is answered in
Selective Service statistics as New
Hanover county engages in Com
munity Health Week which opened
here yesterday.
The question receives a pessi
mistic answer when records of
draft registrants are examined,
albeit county health records show
the New Hanover had no outbreak
of epidemics during 1945, with the
exception of the normal run of in
fluenza and colds, medical author
ities pointed out yesterday.
North Carolina led all states in
rejections of registrants examined
for the armed forces, with New
Hanover being among the top fifty
counties of the state, according to
federal statistics.
The majority of rejections were
for bad teeth, eyes and heart dis
eases, muscle and skeletal defects,
venereal diseases and mental and
nervous defects.
Many of those defects, according
to the medical profession, could
have been corrected With treat
ment in the early stages. In many
cases of illness in later years,
there is no cure for the ravages of
the disease, which have gone be
yond control, resulting in perman
ent impairment of health.
During Community Health week
emphasis will be made on the
individual needs, such as healthful
living, regular checkups and
prompt seeking of medical treat
ment.
