DANGER FOR AUTOMOBILISTS Carbon monoxide poisoning is one of the most widely distributed and most | frequent camses of industrial accidents, 8ays the United States bureau of mines. Carbon monokide zas is a product of in- complete combustion, and since it is with- out color, odor or taste, its presence is frequently unsuspected in many places where it exists. It is an ever present | danger about blast and coke furnaces, smelters and foundries. It may be found in bulldings having a leaky furnace or chimney and in buildings where a gas stove is used without a proper flue con- nection, such as Is often found in tene- ments, tailor shops and boarding houses. Hospltals receive annually a great num- ber of victims of poisoning either by ac- cident or in an attempt at suicide, from artificial illuminating gas. People may be affected by leaks wherever water gas Is formed or used. The exhaust gases from gaspline mootrs under average run- ning conditions usudlly contams 5 to 7 per cent. carbon monoxide, and sometimes as much as 13 per cent.; deaths from running an automobile engine in a closed garage, are not infrequent. A sglmilar danger may arise in ‘operating gasoline engines in launches without sufficient ventilation. The gas is formed also in | Stoker rooms, in gun turrets on battle- ships, in petroleum refinerfes, and by the Lablanc s6da process in cement and brick plants. In underground mines carbon monoxide may appear ad the result of shot firing, mine explosions or mine fires, and in tunnels where automobiles, coal or oil burning locomotives are operated. In spite of the commeon occurrence of carbon monoxide poisoning, there appears to be no uniformly recogmized treatment for a person overcome by carbon monox- ide. In the rescué®dwork of the United States bureau of mines, however. a meth- od has been developed which has been suppqrted by laboratory investigation, and has proved successful in practical experience over @ period of years. The first and most important thing in caring for a case of acute carbon monox- ide poisoning is to get the poison out of the blood. Every moment that it shuts the oxygen out of the hemoglobin adds to the chances for failure of respiration and faflure of the heart. Every minute that the tissues are supplied with only a part of the oxygen they, need Increases the danger of their degeneration and perma- nent damage. Both to save life itself and to prevent {ll health In the future, it is of vital importance to eliminate carbon monoxide from the blood as rapidly as possible. The first step Is to get the victim away from the atmosphera of carbon moroxide Which he 1s breathing; the next is to sup- ply him with oxygen. This may be done by getting the patient into fresh air. but only one-fifth of alr is oxygen. If a tank of pure oxygen is available. it is far better to use it, as the action is much faster and the after-effects, especially the headache, are much less severe and not so prolonged. In view of the great importance of ad- ministering oxygen to these victims at the earliest possible moment, it is recom- mended that all ambulances he equipped With oxygen tanks. It may be that when the victim is found his breathing has stopped, or Is very weak and irregufar. In this case, after quickly removing the vie- tim to good air. or while administering oxygen, one of the rescuers should begin at omce artificial respiration, by the Schaefer method. Continue artificial respiration, If necds- sary, for at least three hours without in- terruption, or until natural breathing has been restored or a physiclan has arrived. Even after natural breathing begins, carefully, watch that it continmes. TIf it stops, staft artificial respiration again. While the ‘administration of oxygen is by far the most important factor in the treatment, and cannot be over-empha- sized, other things should be dane to help the patient. He should be kept quiet and iying flaty to help his weakened heart. When he revives, he should not ve allow- ed to work o In any wa¥ exert himself, for there 4s danger of lieart failure. Heat from sifety lamps, hot water bottles or warm bricks, rubbing the arms and' legs, and keeping the vatient well covered with blankets all help the eclrenlation, and aid in tiding the body over a period of low vitality. The safety lamps hot bricks, etc, should be well wrapped in cloth “or paper as a precaution against burning the patient. Other stémulants, | such as hypodermics of caffein-sodium benzoate or camphor in oil, should not be administered except by a doctor, after he has consldered the possibility of over- etimuiation and consequent collapse. The patient should be ket in bed for a day at least. Later he should be treated as a conyalescent, belog given plenty of time to rest and recuperate. ‘Just how long this time should oe depemds on the se- verity of his pofsoning and should be deoided by his physician. Complete details of methods employed in the treatment of carbon monoxide polsoning, Including a description of the Schaefer method of artficial respiration, are given In a repert which may be ob- tained by applylng to the bureau of mines, Washington, D. C. Played at Glasgo Dance. At Glasgo on Saturday evening there was a very enjovahble New Year's dance which was attended by a large number from Norwich and other towns.

GAVE FAREWELL SEND-OFF TO SUBBASE CHAPLAIN MenHors <f the Knishis of Columbus and haval and civiiin friends of Rev. a3 Falotico, who has been transfer- o ihe United States Submarine to the government guberculosis hespital at New Haven, gaye the pricst a tend of at Union statfon, New Lond n, at 3.55 p. m.
