The only means of ascertaining pneumonia types is from the analysis of the sputum. Formerly this process !required from 18 to 36 hours, with the result the patient often had passed be- yond the stage where the disease could lbe arrested before serum was admin- With the Connaught Laboratory method, the type of pneumonia from which the patient suffers can be found within three or four hours after re- ceipt of the sputum, and concentrated serum given for the particular type in- volved. “When the serum is given early, the results axe striking, giving a very toxic and extremely ill patient marked re- lief," Dr. Brown said. For the last couple of years, Dr. Brown has also been working upon the perfection of sera for types 1 and 2. pneumonococcus, the most common cases of pneumonia. Type 3, the most virulent which is almost always fatal, has been found to respond to an en- zyme which was discovered last year by a New York research eXpert. This was described to the meeting by Dr. Brown. Semmsm'l‘be. GIANT TREE STUMPS Removing the stumps of giant trees has always been the chief obstacle to land clearing in British Columbia. The use of dynamite and donkey-engines is costly and sometimes hazardous, and hauling out the stumps by team and tackle is a strenuous operation; but now a process has been devised for get- ting out stumps with electricity. This method will be adopted extensively in‘ the Fraser valley this summer. The new electric‘ device is a sort of .n which supplies a direct draught to i a fire which may be lighted in the roots |of the big trees. Air under high pres- .sure is driven through a hose fitted with an iron nozzle. This air blast feeds ioxygen to the flames and combustion is forced along so that the stump may ‘be removed in a reasonable time. It is said that electric current for the new device costs about the same as that for a vacuum sweeper. Of course, the air current is reversed. The fire which is started is helped along with kerosene or other inflammable material until the blast is under way.

Accordingly a meeting of the parishioners was called and it was decided to go ahead with the new edifice. John was not at the meeting. A few days later the good in- ther met John and told him what had occurred at the meeting, but John’s only comment was that a new church was not needed and that he would have nothing to do with it. A month later the priest called upon John again and told him that he had been assessed so much toward the building fund. “Well,” said John, “we do not need a new church and I will not pay it." “But," said his new spiritual adviser, “You must." “I will not,” said John. “Well. must." “I will not,” said Jorin. "weu, you know what that means,” said the priest, “you will be read out of the church, and may even be excommuni- cated.” “I don’t care,” was John‘s de- fiant rejoinder, “I’ll join the Metho- dists and go to hell first.” I have heard this story from many a platform but it is usually twisted to suit the sectarian complexion oi thel audience. If told before a Methodist. audience it would be the Presbyter- ians with whom John would elect to spend his hereafter and so on. A sort of going “from bad to worse,” so to speak.
