PAGE THREE t 1 L SI CAMPAIGN JULY 5 As a fitting observance of the twentieth anniversary of Red Cross life-saving service, a swimming cam paign for both children and adults will be held here, starting July 5, and continuing through the 14th, according to announcement made to day by Miss Dorothy Ooff, acting Red Cross ltfe-6avlng representative of Jackson county. The classes, open to swimmers and non-swlmmera alike, will be held at the Natatorlum on North Riverside ' avenue. Jean Eberhart, expert In structor who has previously carried oh this work In Medford, has been engaged to represent the Pacific branch office of the Red Cross In San Francisco, which Is co-operating In the local campaign. He is to be assisted by a number of local swim mers. Including Miss Goff and Miss Marjorle Kelly. Edwin H. Carroll, director of first aid and life-saving In the Pacific area, says that the Red Cross life-saving and swimming campaigns are grow ing In popularity each year. They have greatly reduced the number of deaths from drowning and at the same time they have encouraged swimming as a wholesome and health ful recreation. The life-saving service was Inaugu rated in 1914 with the establishment of the first unit In Baltimore. Since then more than 500,000 Individuals have been awarded the life-saving certificate from among the millions that have learned to swim during these summer campaigns. Records show the greatest gain was registered In 1933 when 78,795 life saving certificates were Issued by Har old P. Enlows, national director of the Red Cross first aid and life saving services at Washington, D. O. During the past four years 365,000 persons have been awarded these highly prized certificates which in dicate the holders are not only pro ficient as swimmers, but that they are able to rescue others from the water. Miss Kelly, who Is In charge of the plans for the Red Cross swimming campaign, has announced inai uie savlng will be emphasized with spec ial stress upon the technique of rescue and resuscitation. Edwin H. Carroll, director of first aid and llfe-aavlng at the Pacific branch office in San Francisco, Joints out that the value of this instruction has been demonstrated time and time again In the saving of human life. A number of residents In the Pa cific states have had occasion to put to practical use the knowledge galnea In Red Cross Ufe-savlng courses. Among these Is Woodrow Damerell, credited with saving the lite of Ellis Watkins at Cove swimming pool, 14 miles from La Grande, Oregon. Dam erell received the certificate of merit bestowed by the Red Cross commit tee on awards. Describing the prone pressure method of producing artificial res toration. Mr. Carroll Bays: "More al can be Introduced Into the lungs by this metnoo. man u average adult uses In natural breath ing when at rest. It consists in the main of placing the rescued person In a prone position and applying pressure to the ribs at rhythmic In tervals. While comparatively easy to learn. It must be done properly to be effective. "The prone pressure method has been known to revive persons who have been under water as long as 30 minutes. It can be used In all cases of asphyxiation, whether from drowning. Has or electric shock. "If you hear your sons and daugh ters enrolled In the Boy Scouts, the Girl Scouts or the Camp Fire Glrli going about saying 'Out goes the bad air, In comes the good,' you will know they are Just rehearsing to obtain the proper cadence for the prone pres sure system of restoring respiration as taught In Red Cross first aid and llfe,- savlng courses."

Need a "change of blood"? Well, maybe a half dozen Old Country leeches applied to the sore spot will make you feel better. More than only a theory, hundreds of Cleveland foreign-born still cling to a practice of getting rid of their bad" blood by the leech method. The Red Cross pharmacy, a drug store here, does a national business in the blood-suckers aa well as cater ing particularly to Cleveland Hun garians. "Freshly arrived old country leeches. Fifty cents apiece, or 12 for 5." the pharmacy advertises. L. H. Fisher, manager of the drug itore's mall order department, said he malls thousands of leeches each spring to all parts of the country and to Canada. 'We Import them all. Our people believe the American leeches are hot good. They are too large and their bellies are black. In contrast with the green color of European kinds. "We transport them here In plain earth and they live on nothing but fresh water and air. They are caught In European marshes by women und children, who wade into the water barefooted and watt until enough leeches attach themselves to their legs. Fisher said some persons treat themselves with as many as 12 of the tiny creatures at once. The smaller they are the more they can suck. When they are full, they fall off; otherwise, he explained, they cannot be removed without great pain. Use Mall Tribune want ads.

Pain ilopi at oat and form art quickly, safely looitned and removed with DrScholls Zino-pads m Pit en on $h$ pain u GONE at no extra cost The American Medical Association's official Journal recently said, editorially, that too many children still have rickets (faulty bone development) and would continue to have until some cheap, generally available, agree, able source of vitamin D is provided, suggest ing that vitamin D milk offered promising possibilities of meeting those requirements. To help meet that need, Pet Milk is now enriched with vitamin D by irradiation with ultra-violet rays nature's method of creating this precious vitamin. By using irradiated Pet Milk, you can now give your children all your family an extra supply of vitamin D at no extra cost. The price of Pet Milk has not been increased be cause of the extra vitamin D. Let your children have sunshine. It's good for them. Give them such other sources of vitamin D as your doctor may prescribe. Give them irradiated Pet Milk, too. All three sources may be needed to give them the vita min D they need. All three together can't possibly do harm. Many investigations have shown more than fifty per cent of young children suffering from rickets. Many cases exist that can be detect ed only by expert examination, but which cause faulty bones and bad teeth in later life. You can't afford not to give your children the extra protection which irradiated Pet Milk provides. It is probable that this extra supply of vita min D may be beneficial to adults as well as to children. Irradiated Pet Milk used for all milk and cream purposes will give your whole family an extra supply of this precious vitamin. Pet Milk is pure, fresh cow's milk, concentrated and steri lized. Nothingwhatcvcrisadd ed to the natural milk except the valuable vitamin D. 1 I i fir t&'9Wi$&--1 I U J I J ItV''Vv ' i 'i "i i s . 1 ' tfCi.. viV'JA r- v ! ' I i ' v .
