A few good rules to follow are listed >be- How, in their order of importance. 1. Keep the injured person lying down. 2. Examine for injuries. 3.

Make the victim as comfort- as possible and allay his fears. Provide proper transportation. The first four of these rules are most important and can do much towards saving the life of an in jured persons. Bear them in mind and, should an accident occur, fol low them closely. Common sense, of course, must be used. Insist that the patient remain still until it is ascertained no serious injury has been sustained, Simple bone injuries may become serious compound frac tures; a broken neck or spine, seri ous enough in itself, may sever the spinal cord if the patient is moved by an inexperienced person. To enable you to give informa tion to the doctor when he is call ed, examine the victim for injuries. The doctor can then come prepared to handle the case. If the injured person is not breathing, the doctor will naturally bring an inhalator with him. This will greatly augment the artificial respiration you have administered. Later’ on in this arti cle suggested treatment for bleeding breathing and poisoning is given. Delay may be fatal! Lives are often lost because of shock after an acci dent. Keeping the patient warm will greatly minimize this. If blan kets are not available, coats, jack ets or even hay or straw can be used. Remember, one blanket under the patient is worth two above, as the ground rapidly cools the body. Hurondale W.L On Wednesday evening, July'30 Mrs, Percy Passmore was hostess to the Hurondale W.I.

Don’t lose your head! Think of your pro cedure clearly and then follow through. Give the doctor all the de tails of the type of injury you think the victim has. Calling the physi cian is listed as the fifth rule to follow in an emergency, and should be kept in that position if you alone are handling the situation. If you are not alone, however, and the extent of the injuries is apparent, send for the physician immediately. Then, carry on with the first four rules of procedure. It is very important not to give an unconscious person anything to drink. You will endanger the pa tient’s life if you attempt to force liquids down the throat. Crowds tend to confuse you and worry the victim. Keep them away. Assure the patient that everything is all right. Do pot discuss the nature of the injuries within hearing of the patient. Fear can quite readily de velop shock and thus seriously complicate in the injury. If a physi cian is in attendance, your prob lem of transportation is, to a large extent, solved.
