In many business Offices fire buckets
are placed, filled with water, in readl-
ness for an emergency. It is seldom,
says the Scientific American, that in
structions for use are pinned near the
supply. The wrong way to tackle an
lncipient Ore Is usually to. hurl the
whole contents OF bucket on the spot
Most OF the water is wasted by this
means. A heavy sprinkIing is more
effective. The water may be splashed
on the blaze by hand, but a more use
full sprinkler. IL a long haired white
wash brush. One OF these should hang
beside every nest of fire buckets.

DOCTORS GUESTS OF
COUNTY PHYSICIAN
Interesting Demonstrations Given Be-
fore Large Class of Friends by
DR.. Barber Of County
Hospital

Many of the prominent doctors of
Los Angeles gathered at the county
hospital last night as the guests of
DR.. D. c. Barber and his assistants.
The doctors assembled in the main
operating room of the hospital at
o'clock and listened to several lectures
by prominent local surgeons, VINO USED
some of the famous cases of the hospi-
tai as demonstrations.
The first and most interesting lecture
was given by DR.. d. G. Barber. Inc
physician used three cases for Demon
stration. The subject was amorbic
dysentery, a subject which has at
tracted the attention of the whole clin-
ical world, because of the claim of
many eminent authorities that the dis
ease results in death to the patient,
except in the raest instances.
In each case presented by the doctor
a complete cure had been affected by
sewing the appendix to the abdomen
and washing out the intestines through
an opening on the appendix. A solu-
tion of salceylate of quinine was used
as q wash.
The diagnosis of this particular dis
ease, made for the first time by DR..
Barber, will go down in medical his
tory as a revelation and a blessing to
the clinical world.
DR., Joseph Kurtz then delivered a
lecture on Tuberculosis of the Joints,
demonstrating with two cases.
DR.. Donald Frick lectured on "Aith-
rites Deformans." He demonstrated
with two cases, and several X-ray pho
tographs of joints.
DR.. c. L. Allen of New Jersey lee
tured on "Paralyse Agitans," demon
strating with seven cases. One of his
patients was DR.. Heating of Dublin,
ireland, an old army surgeon.
A vote of thanks was rendered DR..
Barber by his guests for the interest
ing lectures prepared by him for the
benefit of the doctors.
After the lectures the doctors ad-
journed to the large basement OF the
main building, where refreshments
were served.
Among the physicians present were
q. H. Garrett of the receiving hos
pital, Ray Taylor, Arthur Godin Rich
ardson, Charles s. Nichols, Dudley Full
ton, j. M. Garry, George L. Cole, John
Colliver. Elizabeth Follansbee, Jarvis.
