A THE GLORY OF IT BY RK. F, PAINE “T AS the PB-1 made a_ successful flight?” Such was the first question of the res- cued aviators of the lost seaplane. The hurricane had beaten upon them The torrents of rain had drenched them, The angry waves had torn at their little craft. Helpless, always with Death's cold breath staring in their faces, alone, lost to all the world, save that part of it cov- ered by “the everlasting wings” of God. Nine days and nine nights sitting star- ing into one another's faces, thinking, thinking of loved ones who would never know their fate. Careers dying, youth, life on the abyss, the salt of deadly waters on their lips, water tanks empty, food ne, a tiny shell between them and the lepths. And, stepping forth from the terror and suffering of it, they ask if the great deed which they undertook has succeeded! Unconquerable spirit of American patriotism and loyalty to service! Unsub- dued by elements, distance, loneliness, tor- ture of mind and body. Stronger than wings, engines, controls, all the mechanism of a mighty invention. Greater than army, navy, aeronautic organization, The spirit that defies and conquers the limit of endurance. The nobleness of purpose that turns dis- aster into a glorious test thru which prog- ress shall “carry on” to final triumph. And, while it moves the men who serve this nation, America cannot fail in any right thing that the Almighty has given man capacity to do. Surplus and assets of Ford Motor company, with- out subsidiaries, $664,624,463. Other properties put Henry over the billion mark. And still the man talks of a mechanical cow! COMPETITION MPETITION is the life of progress, The radio having cut into the talk- ing machine business, the phonograph manufacturers had to bestir themselves, to make something better. So one company announces a mechan- ical and another an electrical improve- ment, either of which, it is claimed, will make sound reproduction perfect. Thus we shall continue to have two instruments, the radio to bridge space, and the phonograph to bridge time. You will never hear Caruso by radio, nor Coolidge’s speech, while he is deliv- ering it, on the phonograph. A congressman brags that he has carried one umbrella 600,009 miles. The owner must have been after him red hot. Q. Can one become a pharmacist} Q. Was the ? ? Answers to Your Questions ? ?

HUGH 8, CUMMING Surgeon General, United States Public Health Service Come people faint much more easily than others, The tend- ency to faint does not always de- pend upon physical strength. Strong men have been known to faint some- times from very silght causes, A per- son may faint from exhaus- tion, from weekness, from h © morrhage, from extreme heat, from lack of air, or from some emotional shock. Fear may produce fainting. The Dr, Cumming sight or odor of blood may bring on a fainting attack, There is a very important psychic ele- ment in almost all fainting at- tacks. The symptoms of fainting should be recognized. A feoling of weakness comen over the patient and black spots float before tho eyes., The face becomes pale, then greenish-yel- low, and tho lips lose their na- tural color, Cold perspiration often breaks out on the fore. head. ° » There is a tendency to yawn, The pulse is rapid and wedk ‘The respiration ts very shallow. Finally the patient sinks back in his seat or falls to the ground or floor unconscious, ‘When accidents occur fainting {a by no means uncommon, and you should’ know that {t may be posuible to check a falnting fit provided the proper course 1s taken when the symptoms are experienced, When the beginning of the at- tack is felt or noticed it often may be checked by lying down, If a couch or bench fs avall: able one should immediately lie down and allow the head to hang over the end or side. If one {s trying to check a fainting at tack in another person he should remember that the face is the indicator to watch. If tho face is pale St is an tn dicdtion that there is lack of blood in the brain. Lowering the head causes the blood to go to the brain, It is a fairly wafo rule in all accidents therefore that if the face is pale the head should be lowered. If the face is red tho head should be raised on a pillow or cot In all cases of fainting it Ss Important that the fainting per. son should have plenty, of fresh, cool air. A supply of fresh alr will often bring about recovery. Dashing cold water on the face or chest Is also useful. Smelling salts or a few drops of ammonia on a handkerchief held under the nose at Iinter- vals a fow moments apart until the patient has taken ono breath will asslst {n recovery, Fanning the face will also help, Ordinarily, however, all that is required Js a recumbent po- sition with the head lower than the rest of the body. When patients who have fainted again become conscious they should be given halt a teaspoonful of aromatic spirits of ammonia in plenty of water, if it Is available, Never, under and elroum. stances, should you permit a person who has just regained consciousness from a fainting fit to get up or attempt to walk until he has fully re covered, You should wateh such ® patient carefully, If consciousness does not ro turn after a few minutes and after the above outlined meas ures have been resorted to, you should lose no time in sume moning a physiclan, orm Se Jay superin-” ated at had him = showing ¢, Ga, after a long strength and courage ries of boyish pranks and mls manhood He found a woman He soon became Mrs. Orlan Manson, | Then he rked wonders with | tendent (of the reforme nvincing him that de farm, to become Mra, M. was only another eoretary a little later weakness, she ag Then Mra, Manson died T OUR WAY mM es HETCH ME NAPPI NO MORE!
