EXETER 235611115 YOUR BREATHING PROBLEMS Chest Specialist Answers Questions on Lung Ailments By Gordon M. Meade, M.D. Director of Medical Education National Tuberculosis Association Q. What is a Respiratory Disease? A. The term refers to any ailment of the breathing organs: the nasal passages, throat, lungs and con- necting passages. Q. Are any of the Respiratory Dis- eases regarded as major illnesses? A, Some are extremely serious. Tub- erculosis, perhaps the best known, can cripple or kill if not diagnos- ed early enough and properly treated. Other chronic forms of RD, such as emphysema and chro- nic bronchitis, make breathing a desperate struggle in severe cases, and cause many deaths. Q. What is emphysema? A. The word, taken from the Greek, means literally, "inflation." Em- physema is characterized by a breakdown of the countless tiny air sacs and blood vessels of the lung. As the condition progresses, the lungs lose their elasticity and their ability to get rid of stale air is impaired. Breathing becomes increasingly difficult and the heart may be strained until it can no longer funcion—in which event death results. Q. What Wises emphysema? A. The precise cause has not, yet been ascertained; it is a subject for continued research. There may be several causes. However, it is a statistical fact that almost all those who have emphysema have been heavy cigarette smokers for a long period of time, Q, Can emphysema be cured? A. No cure is known at the present time. Symptoms can be relieved, and the progress of the disease often arrested, by the administra- tion of drugs and the use of breathing exercises and other re- habilitation techniques. 'The first and most important measure is to stop smoking. Q. What is chronic 'bronchitis? A. An inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes, characterized by abnormal secretion of mucus. Its obvious symptom is a chronic or recurrent cough that produces MUCUS. Q. What causes chronic bronchitis? A. A variety of causes which produce irritation and often infection of the bronchial tubes. Chief among them is heavy and prolonged ciga- rette smoking * Q. Can chronic hronchitis 'be cured? A. It depends on the cause of a specific case. Antibiotic drugs plus• a cessation of cigarette smok- ing can result in cure or satisfac- tory remission of symptoms, Q. If a person has severe emphysema or chronic bronchitis, can it still help if he stops smoking? A. Yes. No matter how advanced the disease, cessation of smoking will produce improvement. Q. What are the prospects for con- trolling emphysema and chronic bronchitis? A. Research and a campaign of pub- lie education, vigorously carried out thrmigh the joint efforts of the Public Health Service and the. Canadian 'Tuberculosis Association, are producing better methods of diagnosis, treatment and rehabili- tation. 'These can stem the pro*, ress and ameliorate the effects of these diseases. Intidentially, efforts of the C.T.A. and its provincial and local affiliates depend' largely for their Friccess onChristmas Seal contribntions.

In regular session, council de- cided to do away with the appoint- ment of road patrolmen in the township. For many years, one man residing on each conces- sion road in the township was designated to look after road problems that may come up and report to township officials.
