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."

highway accidents."

greater use of the highways, now that
shorter working hours and more
leisure time is assured by the national
recovery program."

USE OF LEECHES FOR
IURATIVE PURPOSES
IS STILL PRACTICED
CLEVELAND (UP) How's your
rheumatism? Notice weather changes?
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.

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.
