Baking Soda Solution
Dissolves Ear Wax
Excessive ear wax in the exter
nal canal of the ear can be a prob
lem for persons with overactive
ceruminous glands. Water can be
trapped behind the wax, resulting
in infection. Wax removal should
not be attempted with a cotton swab
or other device that might push the
wax further into the ear or cause
damage to the ear drum.
Safer methods of wax removal
include removal in a doctor’s of
fice with a wire loop or other de
vice or use of a solution placed in
the ear to dissolve the wax. Wax
softening or dissolving prepara
tions on the market include carba
mide peroxide (D ebrox) and
triethanolamine (Cerumenex).
According to research con
ducted at the University of Toronto
and reported in The Journal o f
Otolaryngology, baking soda and
water may dissolve ear wax better
than some of the commercial over-
the-counter medicines. In addi
tion, a 5% to 10% baking soda
solution seems to work faster than
hydrogen peroxide or carbamide
peroxide. The solution can be made
by placing one-half teaspoonful of
baking soda in two ounces of wa
ter. A few drops of baking soda
solution in the ear twice a day for
up to a week is recommended. Ac
cording to a recent issue of
Pharmacist’s Letter, baking soda
should not be used in persons with
a perforated ear drum or in those
who are prone to ear infections.

Dave Gunderson reported on
concerns regarding next year's
staffing and scheduling at the
Heppner Elementary/Middle
School Site Council meeting
held recently. Principal Bill Kar-
wacki said that decisions were
to be made after the April 15
contract in te n tio n date.
Regarding questions about
future use of the middle school
building, Karwacki said that
construction on this site will not
begin for a year and will not be
completed until probably two
years from now. In the mean
time, the site council, through
staff input, will make decisions
concerning the use of rooms in
the middle school building.
Linda Shaw and Barb Orwick
su g g ested coo rd in atin g a
substitute information day for
the south end of the county.
Substitutes cannot be paid or
be required to attend, but those
who participate would be at the
top of the list of people to call.
Karwacki emphasized the
need for teachers to call home
for every discipline referral.
Mark Miller will bring two
large plastic barrels to be plac
ed outside the main entrance of
the elementary building and
outside the north entrance of
the middle school building. The
