Proprietor Scientific Research One of the scientific dreams which modern research is bringing steadily closer to realization is the capturing of energy directly from the sun's rays. The tapping of even a small part of the tremendous quantities of solar energy which flood the earth every day and its harnessing to man's in- dustrial and domestic nceds would effect a complete transformation in the life of every nation. No country would be more pro- foundly affected-than Canada. With its highly developed industrial acti- vities and with its huge resources of both developed and, undeveloped water power, the Dominl6ii has a vital inte- rest in such new sources of energy. Our rivers and waterfalls rank only second to those of the United States in the amount of energy which they generate, and our utilization of hydro- electric energy on a per capita basis is the third highest in the world. Our tremendous national investment in dams and power stations and trans- mission lines might be rendered va- lueless. Scientists have already built, on an experimental basis, solar engines which effectively utilize the power in the rays of the sun, though so far they have been unable to solve the practical = problem of making this power available at the low cost which would make it a sérvant of daily life. When and if that day comes, it will see a revolutionary change in our pre- sent method of releasing stored up solar 'energy through the burning of coal and oil. These fuels are formed fas a result of a natural process which, through millions of years, transforms the sunlight originally stored up through the action of chlorophyll, the green styff in leaves and vegeta- tion. Science is attacking the myste- its pait in starting drinking habits. Liquor offered in hospitality is hard to refuse. Social leaders can do much to maintain temperate habits in our people, The matter of hours of sale rests with Provincial authority, and Mr. King ask- ed that the limit be eight hours daily, Liquor Advertising Ends in February Liquor advertising will be prohibited after Feb. 1943 rE on Satgrday, December 26th, in the chapel 'of Deer Park United Church, Toronto. - POP ~ DIED MEDD, John -- At the home of his daughter, Mrs, D.

At the meeting of the Lions Club last Friday evening, Dr. M. B. Dymond gave a very practical talk on "First Aid". An outline of his address fol- lows: : 1. Historical. * First organized effort made by the employees of Potteries in 1872. Cer- tificates first "awarded after attend- ance at lectures 1877. First Manual of instruction compiled by Surgeon Major Peter Shepherd. Work follow- ed so keenly by Rlymen and police] that more advanced instruction" with re-éxamination introduced in 1879, This experience showed there could be no finality to the work. Bands formed into organized bodies in larger centres at large public gatherings. From these small and unpretentious beginnings came the huge organiza- tion today known as the St. John's Ambulance Brigade: which now claims officially over 100,000 active members and has in the Comnénwealth alone awarded well over 2 millions certifi- cates to successful students, The greatest tribute to the work that could have been paid came in 1888 when Her Majesty Queen Victoria granted a Royal Charter, 2, WHAT IS. FIRST AID? It is a science based on fundamental principles of practical medicine and surgery, a knowledge of which, in case of accident and suddén illness, enables trained persons to render such skilled assistance as will preserve life, pro- mote recovery or prevent 'aggravation of the injury or condition until the ar- rival of a doctor or during transporta- tion, : First Aid is very definitely limited as the name applies to the giving of that immediate assistance so that life may be saved, and the responsibility of the first aider ends on the arrival of the doctor, 3. Necessary Qualifications of a First Aider. Jbservant, Tactful, Resourceful, Dextrous, Explicit, Discriminating, Persevering, Sympathetic. 4. Essentials for First Aid. To make a suflicient diagnosis of a case to render immediate aid. acter of treatment to be given, To apply the most suitable tratment till medical help arrives. It is necessary to consider all that may have any bearing on the case: (a) The patient or patients which need first attention. The position as- sumed by the patient, . (b) Signs, symptoms and history. Signs are the things you observe dif- fering from normal, swelling, ete, Symptoms the things the patient com- plains of, pain, dizziness, ete. His- tory is most valuable if patient is able to talk, or if bystanders or others can tell anything about the case. Either of these alone, signs, symp- tomis or history may not help much but taken in conjunction are of in- estimable value, (¢) The cause or causes. If known, a reasonable conclusion may bé drawn to the probable efforts but one needs remember that a cause may have more than one effect; one accident may result in two or more injuries. That the effects may be direct or indirect; e.g. Stroke and fall. That the cause may still be active, e.g. Foreign body in throat. . (d) Surroundings should be noted as to possible sources of danger, e.g. fire, moving machinery, live- wires, poisonous gases, ete. Possible clues as to the diagnosis. Help that may be available. Appliances available. Shelter. Means of transport available, 5. Principles of First Aid. Death is not to be assumed because signs of life are absent. Remove the cause of the injury if possible. Severe haemorrhage must be 'treated first. Patient must be given air. Patient must be kept wari to prevent shock. Most restful position should be sought, If skin broken, the-wound should ba dressed-- (clean dressing). If a bone is broken, patient should not be moved till splints are placed, unless life is otherwise endangered. Poisons swallowed should be neu- tralized. Best means of transport to be provided. Removal of clothing to be left till patient in shelter. Stimulants: First Aider should un- der no circumstances give a patient alcohol. First Aider should never take on himself duties and responsi- bilities of the doctor.
