Several months ago Mrs. Peters- berger had the tooth pulled. She gulped and it fell back in her throat and. down into one of her lungs. She coughed constantly and Dr. John G. Williams, of Brooklyn, planned the tooth's recovery. Mrs. Petersberger was not given an angesthetic but was placed on the op- erating table with her hed and neck in a position so that the throat larnyx and lung were in a straight line. A thin metal tube which surgeons call a bronchoscope was inserted. A sur- geon directed it through an X-ray ma- chine until the end of the tube was directly over the tooth. Then a pair of specially made forceps was slipped through the tube and the tooth with- dragm, Mrs. Petersburger is now at her home, finally rid of the bother- "Grenfell of Labrador" Dr. Grenfell, the world-famous medl- cal missionary to the natives of Labra- dor, who is being honored by fellow- members of his profession in Ontario.
