Q: What are the terms to re-; member in discussing diphtheria‘ prevention? deadly poison which comes ‘from the diphtheria gernu themselves.‘ Then. there is the antitoxin which‘ is creaiod by the body to fight the_ poison ofthe germs and which is now produced by scion-lists. as well, to treat the disease or to provide, temporary safety. Then there is the comparatively] new toxoid, which is a 1910108165‘ product but not a serif-m and is Ill-so referred-do as Anatoxine Ramon. It is the substance used to ‘slvs. lsstinf safety or immunisation to B0 p. o. of those who have taken the proper treallments. The Schick Test is used to find out whether the child is immune. Finally, there is another meth- od of immuriizatiorn using what is! known as toxin-antiioxin. It is stlili used in many countries but has not’ been manufactured or used by C!" adiari Provincial Health Depart.- meuts for some years. It has been superseded in Canada by toxold. l7. Q; In p. case of diphtheria. what can be done to save life? A: In the past, a severe caaeof diphtheria was one 0f the most heartrendlng situations any doctor ever faced. He felt practically help less. Now. however, science has found a means of nrodvoins BHU- toxin to use as treatment when the dread disease has already attacked. Before the doctor hid 109M931! at his disposal from 25 to 40 p. c.. of the children who csuzbt dlivlv theria died. Today, anions victims who are given the treatment within two days after falling ill, not one in flfty dies. _ i0. Q: Does diphtheria demand quick action? . a» A: Yes. Even when an individual is suspected of suffering from diph- therla, antitoxin should be Ill/ell at once. There, is every hope of saving one child‘ if it can be slven antltoxin within "the first twenty- follr hours. After that time the chances of recovery in severe cases, decrease rapidly". After the chances are very much lessen- ed. ' 19 are others‘ in the house who have never been protected by ioxoid. what can be done to front diphtheria?

A: It is diphtheria toxin modifi- cd in such a way that its poisonous qualities are removed and yet re- tains ‘its power of stimulating the tissues of the body to manufacture its own supply of diphtheria antl- toxin which remains as a barrier against the dbeasc for a longtime -for years and probably for life. nooMs wafvran-MAN OUT 0F town good deal. wants wann bed- room with. kitchenette, and use oi’ telephone.

Q: What is meant by diph- "sharia-carrier? A The fact of dlptheria carriers presents a very important and dif- .itult problem in the prevention of Jprtld of diptheria. Healthy individ- uals may harbour virulent diphtheria germs in their nose and throat. ‘These persons have sufficient antitoxln in their tissues to neutralise the toxin‘- ivfilch is being continuously produc- cd by the diphtheria germs growing in their throats. ‘Ihat is why they genus but will only neuJaiiz/c the toxin that they nmsifuctum. The eairier state may continue for long periods of time. Carriers pass on these germs to other persons and if tllcse others have not sufficient anti- lcxln in their body they contract Jipihlerls. zi: o; carriers. A: Yes. A culture may be made of tliegarmsinthenoxeandhtrcatand examined for the presence or ab- sence of virulent dipthoris germs. 22. Q Is there a means of curing carriers?

MERRIEST (Continued frome page l) Two operations were performed on the King to drain from his chest the poisons which had accumulated there. Christmas Day was sadly spent by the royal family in attend- ance at the bedside of what seemed tcbe a dying monarch. The last days of the year were marked by long periods of total unconscious- ness on the part of the King. But that was the turning point, and in January he began to make steady progress. By Illebrurary he was strong enough to be moved to a residence in Bognor where he could get the sun and the sea air. Thu year King George again will spend Chrlstmls in the way he likes best-surrounded only by his fam- ily. It is the great home-coming time with tho lhiglish. and the roy- al family are totally and essentially English in their tastes. "Home" to them does not mean Buckingham Palace, situated in the heart of D011- dorf’. nor the ancient castle at Wind- sor, nor Balmoral castle at the ‘Scotch Highlands. "Home" to them always means Sandrin ham House in _N'oz_'follr. 100 miles nor of London. A Manny cuftismas (Continued frome page 1) Wright, Mrs. Geo. J.

The Act also provides that in estimating the sums io be paid by the father the judges shall take into consideration the ability to provide and the prospective means of such father. h “If the members of the Legislature had giverrthe matter any careful consideration and especially were aware of the smallness of the ra- sources ofpractically all the fathers of such children, they would. I am sure, have shrunk from passing such an amendment which will have the effect of. diminishing still more thc sum which at best is always insuf- ficient for the care and maintenance of these children. Surely the case of our province has not become so de- plorable that in order to pay the salary of one of its officials resort must be had to a fund which should lcs be kept inviolate for the support of God's creatures. l "There are. of course. some pay- ments that must be paid out of this fund. which are absolutely necessary Mrs. l".
