Avoid preventable accidents and you may prevent a bone from breaking. [ Education is needed to prevent aeddents of all types.. Indeed, knowledge and adherence to safety rules would reduce the number of-deaths and the loss of an arm, leg or. an eye, and particularly the number of broken bones, the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society cautions in HEALTH TALK. ; A fracture is an interruption or iii 'break in the continuity of a bone. A fracture may be closed ©r one in which the skin is not broken, or it may he open in which the skin is broken. Sometimes in the more severe types of open fractures, the bones may even protrude through the skin. j .There are many variations in ,the two types. For example, the fracture may be transverse, comminuted, or broken m more than t^o pieces. And then the fracture inay be spiral, angulated, or displaced, according to the position ofcthe bone ends after the force ' Causing the fracture has ceased. Fractures may also be complete or broken entirely through, or incomplete in which the bone is jperely cracked or broken partially, through. This latter group includes greenstick fractures frequently seen in children. They are called greenstick because just as a fereen piece of wood will often beM before it breaks so the bones 6f Children will bend and crack, butvwill not always break through. l$ones are broken through falls, wftgn twisted, when struck by aether object, or if the body is thrown off balance in such a manned to cause an unusual force to Applied to the. bone.

'While there is usually inability to .bear weight or move the- extremityj or motion is limited and painful,- it should be remembered that some of the most serious fractures often are present, "when weight bearing and motion are possible, -although usually painful. i^fhere are variations in the tr^atment of fractures and variations too in the length of time for h&aling to be effected. Bone is really living tissue; it requires blood and the life giving chemicals . that blood supplies, just as other tissues in the body require. • The ig of the fracture is depend- Ponthe injury to the blood supply: When the soft tissues and ftigjr^unding areas are not healed, the normal circulation cani'Jbe given to the bone, but of soft tissues, muscles and 'ten- Wm that furnish motion to the injured extremity. . Healing takes place by the bridging of the break with new bone derived from the rough fracture etjds and the coverings of the bone. Irtiis' bridge is usually laid ^own in tfie blood clot ordinarily found- at tfie fracture site, and the process Jstl&lled callus formation. To encbbrage callus formation, the fracture must be reduced. In other words, the ends of the bone must be -brought back into a normal position so that the fracture ends are in contact with each other and the bridge of new bone Can be fjotfned. /"liany technics may be necesto reduce the fracture, such as the application of weights, a casft, a manual manipulation by NEW EXPERIMENT IN LABOR UNION RELATIONS MADE % a-SPEAKING OF CARDS o An entirely new experiment in labor union relations was inaugurated at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry Friday, Feb. 15, when, for the first time, one of the nation's leading labor organizations presented to the general public an illustrated story of its members, its ^aried activities, its many forms of employee-employer relationships, its social achievement and its hopes for the future. Sporisored by the United Steelworkers of America and the Union Research and Education Projects division of University college of ; the University of Chicago, the exhibit consists of 175 intensely dramatic photographs, visualizing the life of the steelworkers and his family from one year's end to aniother. The exhibit, which will be on display at the Museum until March 15, includes photographic j records made in practically every j active steel manufacturing and j ore mining center in the United j States and Canada, and is divided into several sections. One shows the widely divergent types of daily tasks done by those who make up the steelworkers' working family; another pictures where and how they live; and a third highlights how they fit into their home communities as citizens and neighbors.

Because, as far back as we know, people have loved contests. Even the knights of old delighted in their jousting contests, rough as they were. Nowadays, people still love to compete and win when they can. A game of Bridge, Canasta, or Gin Rummy can provide endless means of pleasant, convenient and accept* able competition.

O. Herreid, University of Illinois dairy technologist, ex* plains that all milk sold in Illinois for drinking must be pasteurized and the pasteurization process kills all harmful micro-organisms. But many farm families drink raw milk produced on the home farm that hasn't been pasteurized and may contain harmful diseases. Farm people who still drink raw milk take the chances of getting such diseases as tuberculosis and undulant fever, which can be transmitted iri the milk from diseased cows, Iftejrreid warns. There's a simple solution, though. Farm homemakers_ can protect the health of their families by pasteurizing raw milk right in the home. Herrgid suggests three ways to pasteurize milk: in the bottle, in a double boiler, or in a batch-type home pasteurizer. If. you use the "bottle method," place bottfes of milk in water and heat to 145 degrees for 30 minutes. Then replace the hot water with cold water until the milk is cool. If you use the "double-boiler method," "IjaStHpour the milk in and put co^er. Heat over hot wate|||gt$H^the thermometer registers fifS^Jfegrees. Then let cool. - * The th^p^a^'would be to buy an electrM^lpilJh-type'home pasteurizer" ^ithf 'a capacity of two gallons C^#«^0re/ It would be nearly a$tOT?fttic, and you could pasteurizft|^ little as two quarts of milk With only a little attention.
