SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Your Health and Its Care BY DR. WILLIAM BRADY. M. O. Raadars should ddrMi ioquiriM tot Or. William Brady 265 El Csmino. Bt.I Hull. CaUl. WATER IN When a person drowns Is wa ter always found in the lungs? I ask because a man I knew was found appar ently drowned rece n 1 1 y. He had for years had some heart trouble, and also - his rela tives said he had suffered with cramps once before when in swim ming. To com nl 1 c a t e mat- Or Brada ten there were some marks that might have been caused by blows by ' some heavy dull object. . . . (S. L. A.) Death by drowning is due to asphyxia (suffocation, depriva tion o' air) and not to the few spoonfuls or maybe the few drops of water that may get into the lungs. The postmortem signs, therefore, are those- of asphyxia. Little or nothing can be proved by the finding of, or by the absence of water (or whatever fluid the victim is pre sumed to have drowned in) in the lungs or in the bronchial tubes. More characteristic of drowning is the presence of clear or blood-tinged foam or froth full of fine air bubbles In the windpipe and bronchial tubes. Often water or whatever fluid the victim drowned in is found in the stomach. 1 Asphyxia . supervenes about two minutes after submersion, and death follows five minutes later. A boy about 7 years old play ing on the ice fell into open wa ter where ice harvesters had cut the ice. His companions saw him disappear, ran across the pond and told the men, who ran to .the open place, saw the boy's cap floating, fished around with pole hooks and pulled the boy out on the solid ice. They ran across the pond to a shack, be gan a search for a barrel to roll the child on, while a book-keeper telephoned the nearest doctor, who happened to be the geek who now conducts this column. It probably took the doctor at least two minutes to reach the scene. Quart Per Child, Goal In Campaign Of Milk Producers Mrs. Ada Reed Mayne of Portland, manager of the Ore gon Dairy council, waa recently in ftieaiord to confer with E. H. Hedrlck. suoerintendent of Med ' ford schools, and with local milk distributor! concerning the Ore gon Dairy council' nutritional campaign being conducted for we first time In Medford. According to Charles Smith, chairman of the Oregon Dairy Products'! commission, the cam paign is part of a program which has been In progress in Oregon for the past 14 years. The goal of the campaign Is to raise the consumption level of milk to a dally quart for every child and a dally pint foi every adult. The figures on advisable milk con sumption are based on scientific research, The Oregon Dairy Products commission has appropriated the sum of $19,000 to carry this work through the Oregon Dairy council to all communities of , the state. The program was set up under the state legislature , and dairymen have taxed them selves one-half cent a pound of butterfiit through the month of May to finance it. Olive Barber's Observations The lad took the scat beside me in the bus. It was 3 a. m, He said he had to be on his Job nt 4:19. Made it handy for him, that 3 bus did; gave him Just enough time to go the 20 miles from town to his work. A thinnlah youngster, I took him to be younger than the 17 years I late found he was.

The doctor applied Schafer's method of ar tificial respiration NOT the modified method taught by the American Bed Cross. Thick vis cid fluid drained from the nose and mouth during the resuscita tion I do not believe the fluid would have drained out of the breathing passages had the meth od taught by the American Red Cross been applied, because even limpid water will not run up hill. Anyway the boy survived Luckily no first aider trained by the American Red Cross per petrated the wrong method of resuscitation on the victim. Even today there are a good many people who purport to be intelligent but who do not know hoy to resuscitate and hence are worse than useless in an emer gency. How can such people sleep at night? What if the emer gency should occur that very night, say from accidental car bon monoxide asphyxiation? Let us hope there is a Boy Scout or a Girl Scout in the neighbor hood he or she will know what to do. .

Something i can take right along without injury to my general health which Is very good. IEi. Zi. O.I Answer Oh. T don't know, on the bowling green the other day my for mer friend Dr (he and hla lrl friend had Just celebrated tneir iOth wedding anniversary) gave me an uneoulvocal trounclm and I'm feeling as old as Sam Hill tin I can taKe mm tin a vain. Send me a aLamoed en velope bearing your address, and I'll send you the pamphlet "Young Folks and Old Folks?' which, I believe, will tell you-how to get Just the effect you want.

Dllle Co.) had for his father. "My Dad says " was the beginning of many of his sentences. His father was with the Sea bees, had seen action in the South Pacific and was now hos pitalized at Pearl Harbor, Being Idle would go hard with hjm, his dad being such an active guy, always into something, always cutting up. "My sis is 20 and. has been married and had a baby since Dad left. He'll hate to see mo go into the navy next year as that will leave Mom alone. He didn't mind going himself as he knew I'd look after Mom," he told me. He worked in the sum mer only, as he went to school. "Dad made me promise I'd keep on witn school until he got back. He figured the war would be over by the time I was 18 and then I'd go on to college. Dad la a great one for educa tion." He said he sure hated to get up so early but he remembered what hla dad waa going through and ao far he'd nevtr missed a day or been late for work. Thinking of how old the father must be, with a daughter 20 and aon 17, I asked, "Why did your lamer join the Seabeea? A man his age didn't need to." He hesitated, then refilled. "Yes, he did have to; he waa drafted. Dad's only 34. You aee he's my step father but we never think about that. I don't think he docs either. He's been our father for 10 years." Then look ing at me with somethlnB of challange in his face and voice, he said, "And I'vo been his son for 10 years. It's going to be that way always." Suddenly he seemed bovlsh no longer. He was a man with a man's understanding of what the relationship of father and ion could be; and waa, with him and nis 34 year old dad. I wished the man, lying wounded In Pearl Harbor, might have seen this aon of his; might have heard the love ana loyalty In the lad's voice. But maybe he had no need to hear; maybe he knew, havlno placed that love and loyalty more nimself in his ten veara of fatherhood. Oea Man Tribune Want Ada. FOR STOMACH ULCERS lo Sparta Bids.
