DR.. L0RENz.
His Methods viii Be Witnessed
by Local Surgeons.

DR.. Lorenz. the famous Vienna spe-
cialist on orthopedies. will be In Boston
for a few days the latter part of this
form several operations at the children's
hospital In that city and every possible
arrangement has been made for the ex-
tending to the profession and to the gen
eral public the benefits OF the skilful ser
vices which he gives free to the people
OF this country.
A number OF Providence surgeons will
60 10 Boston and witness the methods OF
DR.. Lorenz for the purpose Of better un-
derstanding them with the view OF put
ting them into use I'm their own practice.
Dr. Lorenz has recently been In New
York after return from the West,
where he was called to operate on the
Armour child.
Congenital hip disease. which DR.. Lo~
renz has made life study, serious as II
may be, Is comparatively simple when
fully understood. and 80 per cent of the
cases can be remedied by the Lorenz
bloodless method, and most OF the other
cases can be corrected by aid Of the
knife.
The disease is simply dislocation OF
the femur. or thigh bone, the head hav-
ing slipped out OF the SOCKET III carry III
fancy and found lodgment In an unnat-
ural position. which does not give free
rotary action TO the leg. the right direc-
ton TO the foot or sufficient support TO
the leg for firm walking.
The treatment. I'm short. consists OF
pulling the leg down again so as To slip
the head OF the femur into the socket. re-
establishing a natural hip joint This
Joint must afterward be held In position
by a cast for several weeks or months
until IL will remain there Of Its own ac-
cord
This reduction, as II is called in pro-
fessionsl language. is accomplished by
two methods. DR.. Lorenz does IL by man
ipula ton and without using the knife.
and his method has been adopted to some
extent In all parts OF the world. so that
his present visit to America amounts TO
a sort Of supervision over the application
of his own methods. confirming the sur
geons In the principles Of II.
When II is done by the aid or the sur
geons knife the femur and socket can be
examined and the reloca ton is a certain
~. The Lorenz method is seldom used on
patients more than 10 years old, though
a patient % years old IL known 10 have
been cured by II. and the best age is be-
fore I.
The X-ray Is very valuable element In
the trea tment of this disease, and must
be given some credit for the measure OF
success the surgeons meet. BY the x-ray
photograph the relative positions Of the
bones are discovered which gives the
surgeon confidence In his work and after
, the Joints have been connected and the
cast put on this ray Is used again to de-
termine IL the femur head slipped into the
socket perfectly.

EAST PROVIDENCE,

The school committee will hold its next
cipal subject for discussion will be the
closing OF the schools during the Christ
mas vacation. At the last meeting OF
the school committee the majority were
in favor Of allowing only the usual two
weeks vacation during the Christmas
holiday. but some of the members sug-
gested that the vacation be extended to
three weeks. The school committee
fears that sufficient supply OF futl can
not be obtained for the use OF the schools
Until the recent cold weather many Of
the schools were using wood. During the
coldest weather majority Of the
schools were closed ~ is thought that
the school committee will decide on a
three weeks Christmas vacation at its
next meeting.
