This procedure serves two important purposes - it isolates the burn and lessens the possi- bility of infection, and the cold application relieves pain. It should be stressed that any applications of salves or strong disinfectants add to the damage already done by the burn. Pro- bably one of the worst steps is to apply a preparation which forms a crust, and all prepara- tions containing tannic acid are offenders. Gentleness in the manage- ment of an early burn is most important. When applying cold wet dressings, care should be taken not to break blisters, since blisters play a big part in keep- ing out infection. If an hour or more elapses before a patient with a bad burn can get to hospital, he will be- come very thirsty and drinking tap water or fruit juices may do serious harm, One of the best drinks to combat this early shock is water containing a shake of salt and a pinch of baking soda. Pain-relieving pills such as headache tablets may be given in moderation to help relieve suffering until medical atten- tion is available. Vitamin C is not a long-last- ing vitamin in the human body and its supply must be replenish- ed daily. Its best sources are the citrus fruits and tomatoes and their juices, which should be included in the daily menu. ........000101.011104.1101060.4•NIM4jj. Dick P--- is an excellent ex- ample of the redemptive work of The Salvation Army. He was a man who had gone the wrong road simply because of adverse influences, A bad start was made during World War II when, but a mere lad and without the strong guiding hand of a parent,4 tie "joined the crowd". When discharged, his parents, decent citizens were horrified at his loose ways. Unable to agree with his par- ents, Dick "went places," spent his discharge pay in seeing sights and fell easy prey to un- desirable companions. He sank lower and lower, finally be- coming an alcoholic and drug addict. Arrested for a minor offence, he spent a week-end in jail. While there he was visited by the local Salvation Army offi- cer who saw that the young chap was capable of better things. He took an interest in Dick and spoke to the magis- trate who willingly assented to the officer taking Dick under his wing. Lodgings were found in The Army's hostel. Dick attended the services and was rehabilitat- ed spiritually and morally. Af- ter a period of work at The Ar- my's industrial plant he found a decent job in a local factory. He is today an Army worker in one of its Harbour Light Corps. His parents were overjoyed and overcome with gratitude. Friends Hold Surprise Party Mrs. Louis Hutton and Mrs. Bill Henderson were hostesses for a surprise party for Mrs. Peter MacKinnon Friday eve- ning prior to Mrs. MacKinnon's departure for St. Clair Shores, Mich., this week. Mrs. Mac- Kinnon has moved to the Unit- ed States where her husband has been employed for the past year.. The party was held at Mrs. Henderson's home on Edward Street. Mrs. Hutton pinned a cor- sage on the guest of honor and Mrs. Henderson read an ad- dress. Mrs. MacKinnon re- ceived several gifts and a purse of money, for which she thank- ed her friends. Mrs. Jim Henderson, Mrs. Bill Henderson Jr., Mrs. Mae Blatchford and Miss Mary Ann Southam assisted the hostesses in serving lunch, Now, here's the question: How much would that same young man have cost the tax- payer if he had gone from bad to worse, attd had finally land- ed up in says, Kingston or one of the great penal institutions? It is worth a thought when ponder- ing the, amount of the cheque you will hand The Salvation Ar- my this year. The canvass in Wingham will be carried out in the evening of Monday May 9th, Captain A. Ferris asks your generous sup- port to this worthy cause. Fumes Also Deadly In Warm Months Motorists are warned that carbon monoxide poisoning can be just as deadly in the warm months as during the winter, said A. E. Kress, Toronto, ex- ecutive vice-president of the Federation of Automobile Deal- er Associations. Mr. Kress pointed to the motorist's all- year responsibility to maintain the muffler and tail-pipe of his vehicle in top condition. "Carbon monoxide fumes have no odor and even when a car's windows are open they can accumulate unnoticed in sufficient strength to result in death," said Mr. Kress. " Only lack of proper precautions on the part of the vehicle owner," Mr. Kress added, "can be blamed for tragedy resulting from such weaknesses as leaky muffler and tailpipe, It's the serious responsibility of the owner to have his vehicle thor- oughly checked regularly, but particularly following months of driving under winter condi- tions. It's no good to mean well, He must do well in keep- ing his vehicle in safe operat- ing condition." The Canadian Highways Safety Council's car-check campaign is being observed through April and May again this year. G. A. WILLIAMS, Optometrist ••••••••••••••••••••4,,,,,A 9 PATRICK STREET W. WINGHAM Phone 357-1282 At 4 4, Rummage Sale The Ladies' Auxiliary to the Wingham and District Hospital held the spring meeting in the council chambers on Monday of last week. Mrs. A. H. McTavish of Teeswater gave a report on her recent attendance at a work- shop for gift cases and gift carts held at the Ontario Hospital Auxiliary Headquarters in Tor- onto. She thanked the ladies of the community who have donated their time and talents to the gift case at the Wingham hospital and said she hopes it will be well patronized. It is a new project the Auxiliary has started as a service to the pa- tients and their families. The treasurer, Mrs. D. C. Nasmith gave a good financial report. This was followed by a discussion on the purchasing of new equipment that will be needed by the hospital for the opening of the new wing. It was tentatively decided that the Auxiliary equip the new Auto- clave Centre Supply and pur- chase the special operating room light. The date for the spring rum- mage sale and tag day was set for Saturday, May 28 at the Wingham Arena. It is hoped as many ladies of the area as pos- sible will dispose of unwanted articles to this sale. The pro- ceeds will be used to purchase equipment for the hospital. The winter'Marathon Bridge parties concluded Monday eve- ning of last week, The winner for the season's play and total score was Mrs. Chas. Hodgins with Mrs. H. V. Pym as runner- up. The highest single score for one evening's play was won by Mrs. J. W. English. Their were eight tables in play on Monday evening and Mrs. J. R. Lloyd had the high score. Hospital Aux. Sets May 28 F The responsibility for ambu- lance service in Ontario will be assumed by the Department of Health, it was announced in the Legislature this week. At- torney-General Arthur Wishart made the announcement. His department has carried the re- sponsibility for ambulances up to this time. Apparently the switch was precipitated by the reported lack of any ambulance service in the Bracebridge area follow- ing the withdrawal of service by the two commercial operators there. It was reported that the Bracebridge town council had refused to call a special meet- ing to deal with the crisis. The provincial government's chief concern with ambulance service at the present time is in regard to the obvious need for adequate ambulance facilities as far as the public highways are concerned. Dr. Matthew B. Dymond, Ontario's minister of health, said that he was not prepared to say exactly what his depart- ment would do about providing ambulance service but that an announcement would be forth- coming shortly. The situation exemplified by the Bracebridge crisis has been duplicated, in some degree, at many points in Ontario, In Wingham the directors of the Wingham and District Hospital are currently engaged in a joint study with representatives of the municipalities in an effort to provide some workable an- swer to the ambulance problem, In our area, however, the am- bulance operators have been sufficiently considerate to guar- antee a continuance of the ser- vice until a solution is found.
