ii Learn First Aid !

A LOST ART. A Talk from Glasgow by Wellwood R. erguson.- ~ IRST Aid is simply the temporary treat- ment of an injury pe nding its Mmoeiving skilled surgical attention. Its importance lies in this fact that the first few minutes after the occurrence of an accident arethe moat important, Not only does First Aid insimiction teach one how to diagnose and treat every kind of injury and many forme of sudden’ ilies, but it ako Hmparta some very weelul knowledge on the anatomy and physiology of the human body. In this mechanical age itis not astonishing to find that one out of every three persons between the ages of twelve and fifty can tell you all about the internal ecomimy of a motor-car, An even pTeaAter proportion CAN explain the mys- teriouz workings of wireless, and can even, if all tales are trie, moke their own Teceiving sets ; but T doubt if one in a thousand could explain any simple part of the interior mechanismof the oldest of machines, the human body. Well, a course of Firat Aid will give you a good general knowledge of the workinga of that machine. That, in itself, is useful and interceting. aif Tragedies Avoided. Now, ordinary. persons (the persons we call “the man in the street") are apt to think that an accident is no concern of theirs, They seldom seeone, and if they do, they are content to be one of the crowd, Attention ta the sufferer, they think, is a matter for the police and the ambulance. Well, 40° it is, but we. have not yet reached that pitch of perfection when policemen and ambulance wagons drop from the skies at the pressing of a button, Mind you, [ am not encouraging an officious Tereon without knowledge to push himself forward-and probably doa lot of mischief to the puetient. mich a person would be better advised io remain in the crowd, orgo away. But what Ido say is this: if more people would obtain a really good knowledge of Firat Aid, we should eee fewer apgravationa of injuries and have fewer fetal results than we have to-day, Now I should lke 10 mention one or tyro cases out of the many that have come to my notice illustrative of what I have said, The firet had-tragic results.
