\V<.(lru'S(la\-. Aujrnst 5, 1936 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE 87 Years Young THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME From solitary voices crying in a wildncrness of mob conformity to irrational action conies the call to build a brave new world. Even as the greater part of our civilization threatens to destroy itself by mad excesses of the competitive drive upon which our economic structure is based, even now there begins to em- erge a society within a society, an order which reckons not of private profit but of the social good. There is little hope that this stirr- ing of the human intellect and con- science may avert a major interna- tional conflict. It is of the very nature of our capitalistic system that this should be its ultimate form of expression on a world scale; even as by combine and monopoly it is de- stroying competition of business or- ganizations within the state. YeH in all the threatening picture remains the hope that the extent of this im- pending disaster may be restricted, that there may be a foundation for future progress salvaged from the ruins. Toward this solid •foundation every truly co-operative effort stands as a contribution. Every venture in play ing together; every avenue opened for some person to attain a finer self- expression by giving human life a new nobility. A hundred and one creative fields call for the entrance ol youth inspired and informed; of youth equipjwd with a .sturdy supply of that quality described by our head- master at our last chapel as "guts"; of youth prepared for participation. But ever and aiion we are tempted to forsake constructive endeavors at the Iwhest of other appeals. May the lures of loose living be seen in the shallowness of their superficiality. May the desire for personal wealth and economic power not betray us into cruel exploitation of those who by ability or environment are less fortunately situated. May the drums of war fall upon ears aware of the futility of violence that desecrates human life and usurps emotions ritrhtfully dedicated to a large loyalty. So must live the graduates of this progressive school that nothing shall dim and nothing shall deviate the vision of youth facing life creative and life abundant: "The human things go on; we forever!" Note: The article "The Shape of Things to Come," is appearing as the editorial in "The Voyageur," Picker- ing College year book. After spend- ing a year at Newmarket studying as the first Rogers' scholar, the writer has returned to the home farm near King. Mr. Elijah Paul of Eugenia cele- brated his 87th birthday quietly at his home on Tuesday, August 4th and The Advance, along with a host of friends extend congratulations to Mr. Paul, who is one of the early settlers of the Eugenia district, having come there 55 years ago, and since then has been a regular Advance reader., He is enjoying very good health, loves to lead and keeps in touch with world affairs every day. We hope that he will be with us many years yet. MAY BE SOl'C.HT UNDERGROUND RIVER Drilling for water on his farm, Fred Perry, two miles south of Min- ncsing. hit an artesia vein. The (Irillinc operations were performed abowt 25 feet from the southwest corner of his large barn. Since the water has begun spouting, Mr. Perry is afraid that his barn will collapse. The land in the vicinity of the barn has opened up and a crack is visible for a distance of nearly eight feet. After drilling operations had reach- ed 80 feet without a sign of water showing, the drillers left to bring more lengths of pipe to sink the hole ' deeper. Upon returning they found quicksand exuding from the drill hole. Shortly afterwards the water came spouting out. Unable to stop the flow of water, the drillers built a box eight feet square over the top of it, which they filled with gravel The water is still oozing out through the gravel. â€" Collingwood Enterprise.

From them was handed down the fear of rusty nails and deep wounds on the hands or feet. It was in 1886 that the tetanus bac- illus, the specific cause of lockjaw or tetanus, was discovered. Sub- sequent investigations have provided a reasonably satisfactory understand- ing of this disease. The tetanus bacillus has a number of unusual characteristics. It is commonly found living in the intes- tines of normal healthy animals. This explains its presence in stables, barn- yards, cultivated soil, animal manure, and street dust. The tetanus bacillus is one of the few disease-producing bacteria poss- essing the power to form spores, a resistant dormant state, whereby it may survive, for many years, under adverse conditions that destroy Other tbacterta. The poison or toxin which this bac- illus elaborates is unusually power- ful, and is has a certain predilection for nerve tissues. The tetanus bac- illus is called an anaerobe as it flourishes in the absence of oxygen. With this information as to where the tetanus is found and as to the condition which favours its growth, we can understand that .any wound which is contaminated with soil should be considered dangerous. Rust is not dangerous in itself, but the rusty nail is more likely to have dirt on it than is the brightly polished nail, hence the bad reputation of the rusty nail. Deep penetrating wounds, particu- larly of the hands or feet, and gun- shot or powder wounds are serious. -Any tetanus bacilli carried into such wounds find therein a peculiarly fav- ourable opportunity for growth, shut off from the air in warm and moist surroundings. Every wound which is anything more than a scratch requires skilled care. Wounds of the kind described will usually have to be opened in or- der that all foreign material may be removed. In every case where there i.s the slightest cause of suspicion, tetanus antitoxin is given. This is a preventive measure, and it is pract- ically true that it is specific. The name "lockjaw"- comes from the rigidity of the muscles, a symptc** of tetanus, which prevents the open- ing of the jaws. Tetanus has a ver> high mortality rate .therefore, it« prevention is extremely imijortant I'etanns can be prevented through the proper care of all wounds and the use of tetanus antitoxin.
