I. TWELVE MEDFORD MAIL-TRIBUNE Friday, Oef. 19, 1945 Your Health and It's Care By DR. WILLIAM BRADY M.O. Readon ihould addra.i tnqutrte. toi Dr William Brady. 265 CI Camino Bavarty Hill. Calii. WHAT GOOD IS Antiseptic means opposed to scptsis or septic. Sepii means n noisnned state reused by ab sorption or dis ease - produc ing germs or their products from a region nf infection in to the blood stream. Scpti- cemia means sepsis in the blood "blood poisoning. In- 4Atinn means iWSMmii invasion of the Dr. Brady tissues by disease-producing germs. Germi cide means germ-killing. Disin fectant means removal of infec tion. Sterilize means to free .from all germs. Disinfection applies to wounds say the first aid application of tincture of iodim- to a fresh wound, and to utensils or objects, say the dis infection of dishes with chlorine nolution or disinfection of a clin ical thermometer by washing It with cool water and soap or with alcohol or with any germi cidal solution Most practical and reliable way to sterilize anything is by heat, say bo'Ung water for five minutes, boiling milk for five minutes, subjecting bandages wnd dressings to superheated steam under pressure, passing a needle or other metal Implement thru a blue flame. Ironing any thing thnt has been properly washed makes it practically sterile. If you are going to open a blister or a pimple or a boil or try to dig a r-llver out of the skin or attempt any minor surgery such as paring corns you will be on the safe side, In my opinion (as a one-horse-and-buggy doc tor), if you plunge the needle or knife blade into a cake of wet soap two or three times just be fore the qperatlon begins, and of course paint the immediate field of operation with mild tincture of iodine to disinfect the skin. Plain soap, any make suitable for kitchen or tailct use, is per haps the best nil around disin fectant and antiseptic wo have for most purposes where a good disinfectant or antiseptic is re quired. To the best of my knowledge and b.Mlef the first aid applica tion of a disinfectant or antisep tic or germicide to a fresh wound Is the only justifiable or necessary use of germicide or antiseptic.

The care the wound requires (aside from whatever surgical treatment the doctor gives) after the first aid disinfection is simply rest, pro tection and NO MEDDLING It Is childish to imagine any known antiseptic or germicide will make a wound heal faster than nature will heal it If you let It alone. But letting a wound alone is an art which most lay men and some doctors do not understand. We'll chat about that some day.

FLIES SEEN AS Suit Lake City U.R There Is less cause to fear poliomyelitis than measles and whooping cough, in the opinion of Dr. L. P. Gebhardt, professor of bacter iology at the University of Utah Gebhardt, who has spent 16 years studying and experiment ing with polio, has a five-point program for preventing the dis. ease, but he says: "I would be more alarmed If my son should contract whoop ing cough or measles than If he should get polio. "Most people fear polio more than common illnesses such measles and whooping cough be cause its results have been more widely publicized," Gebhardt said. Death Ratio Lower "Polio is terrible, but many people who are so afraid of it and of its often-resulting pnraly sls overlook the fact that, measles often injures the heart and lungs and that whooping cough in many cases retards growth of the brain. "And the number of deaths re sulting from measles and whoop ing cough both on a percentage and total basls is much higher than the number of polio fatali ties. In Gebhardt's opinion and he says this is also the opinion of many other doctors and scientists most human polio cases are contracted by eating food con taminated by flies. "It has been proved," he said, "that certain species of flies, in cluding the common housefly, carry polio virus and that they can contaminate food." ' ELONDIE LET'S DANCE!

Lists Five Rules "Then, there is the fact that most new cases appear during the fruit harvest season and at times and in places where flies are plentiful," Gebhardt said. His five rules for preventing polio are: (1) Eliminate flies' breeding places. (2) Eliminate flies. (3) Educate children as soon as they are able to toddle to eat only what food their mother gives them and don't permit them to eat out of doors. ((4) Wash - fresh foods thor oughly with soap and water (5) See that children's hands "SUNSET jjj jol'jf M wSJekW SsOkS I tsfs gm(;.. m,,,.,.,,.,,,,,,,,,: I I --.SA,JT: y 4 A AtlaV l SAWYEH WA Exciting itory of Geron- jffirt'''-A LTOeV EVElcHmSTy JAMESON.') m TONIGHT 8:00 .f I mm I twt m FLIES DOWN TO THE UNIVERSITY, AND FORSETS ji I lUfi A I IM I I lE P I lTHE STRANGER WHO WAS SEEN SNOOPING AROUND HIS HOME SSsmmiizJiSt I X ' I I IflHIIV LllVt cj yt kjEgEmmBBAt I if itt ii.aga. a). ii ,iiimmmvmmw TmI ' Vnfi m awaf m ,t V-';'..ijy. ci w k-i f-. s,rj,m. .i,h, d I0'I9 A sre clean when they eat. i Gebhardt believes that from 70 to 80 per cent of adults are! immune to polio, as a result of! having had sub-clinical cases, probably appearing as sorej throats or colds, when they were. children.
