ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand 1t. First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place of physicians service. A sur
geon should always be summoned as
"a precautionary measure where there
is an injury of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured few min
utes' delay may mean a fatality. In
such a case a person trained in First
Aid is invaluable not only to the in
dlvidual, but through him to the COM
munity in which he lives.
There Is perhaps no way OF ascer-
tanning the number of deaths or seri-
GUS disablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
country's toll of suffering and death.
The dissemination of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
duced a farreaching and beneficial in
fluence in the prevention of accidents
on railroads, in mines and in great In
