Ineed, knowledge and adherence safety rules would reduce the number of deaths and the loss of ii arm, leg or an eye, and parkcularly the number of broken ones, the educational committee f the Illinois State MedicalVsoiety cautions in Health Talk. A fracture is an interruption a break la the continuity of bone. A fracture may be closed one in which the skin is not iroken,' or it may be open in rhich the skin is broken. Somemes in the more severe types f open frkctures, the bones may ven protrude through the skin. There are many variations in he two types. For example, the acture may be transverse, comminuted, or broken in more than o pieces. And then the fracure may be spiral, angulated, or isplaced, according to the osition of the bone ends after tie force causing the fracture as ceased. Fractures may also be compete or broken entirely through, r incomplete in which the bone i merely cracked or broken parally through. This latter group icludes greenstick fractures freuently seen in children. They are called greenstick because just as a green piece of wood will often bend before it breaks so the bones of children will bend and crack, but will not always break through. , Bone» are broken through falls, whfn twisted, when struck by another object, or if the body is thrown off balance i|f such a manner to cause an unusual force to be applied to the bone. Symptoms indicating a fracture Include swelling, discoloration, blisters or blebs on the skin, pain and Unusual or flexible motion in ATeis where joints are not present. While there is usually inability to bear weight or move the extremity, 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. There are variations in the treatment of fractures and variations too in the length of time for healing 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 healing of the fracture is dependent on the injury to the blood supply. When the soft tissues add surrounding areas are not healed, then the normal • circulation, cannot be given tp the fracture, causing a delay in healing not only of the bone, but of tlife soft tissues, muscles - and tendons that furnish motion to the injured extremity. Healing takes place by the bridging of the break with new bone derived from the rough fracture ends and the coverings of the bone. This bridge is usually laid down in the blood clot ordinarily found at the fracture site, and the process is called callus formation. To encourage callus formation, the fracture must be reduced. In other words the ends of the bone must be brought bpek ° into a normal position so that the fracture ends ar4 in contact with each other and the bridge can be formed. Many technics may be necessary to reduce the fracture, such as the application ' of weights, a cast, a manual manipulation by the physician, or the use of metal pins. Many fractures can be prevented. Slipping on highly polished floors and rugs, falling off unstable ladders, running down stairs, hurrying to get a street car or bus or train, stepping unwarily off curbstones, careless driving of an automobile, are all factors in' preventable accidents. Avoid these and you may preventt $ bone from breaking. Bad, Bad Hoods . Sounds like the same old story and it is The roads are steadily getting worse. In their present state it is almost impossible to drive over them. What are they going to be like in another month? Each drop of rain digs a bigger hole and we're going to have more precipitation. Some people have the mistaken idea that the roads in their present condition constitute a safety guard for their children by forcing driverj to go slow. This line of reasoning is so ridiculous it isn't even worth commenting on. In the meantime, property value decreases aiid succeeds only in turning our loveiy community into a slum area. Money may be the "root of all evil" but it has also produced miracles. Let us all get at the "root" of our trouble by digging down deep and coming up with our dues.
