Eight Postgraduate
Institutes Planned,

Eight postgraduate medical institutes
will make up the enlarged program of
the University of Minnesotas center for
continuation study this year, Julius N.
Nolte, newly-appointed director of the
center, has announced. Courses, all of
which will deal with vital medical
problems of the Northwest, will begin
the first Monday of each month from
october until May.
The Institutional staff for the series
will be selected from the faculty of the
University medical school, the Mayo
Foundation in Rochester, and the ex-
tension division of the Minnesota State
Medical association. About 40 Univer-
sity faculty members are included on
the Institutional staff.
A feature of the series will be the
practical demonstrations and actual
case work. This phase will be stressed
with less emphasis laid upon lectures
than in the past, according to plans.
In addition to the University facilities
those of several Twin Cities hospitals
will be made available to attending
physicians thus increasing the scope
and value of the courses.
Diseases of the heart will be the
subject of the first institute which will
be held october to 8, inclusive.

In case of apparent drowning the Red
Cross recommends the prone pressure
method of artificial respiration.
Start artificial respiration immediate
ly after the body is taken from the
water Persons apparently drowned
have been revived after as long as 20
to 80 minutes under water. Get doc
tor as soon as possible. Loosen any
tight clothing. Keep the patient lying

until he is fully conscious.
Lay the patient on his stomach with
one arm extended, the other bent at the
elbow so that his face, turned out
ward, rests on his hand or forearm.
His nose and mouth should be low and
unobStructed.
Kneel, straddling his thighs. Place
the palms of your hands on the small
Of his back with little fingers just
touching his lowest ribs.
With arms extended, swing forward
gradually, bringing your weight to bear
upon him. Don't press too hard II
you're big and he's small0 Take about
two seconds for this. 1t congresses the
lungs.
Next, swing back quickly to remove
the pressure. This lets the lungs ex-
pand. After two seconds, swing for
ward again. Repeat the whole pro-
cedure II to Is times minute for sew

Brother and Sister
Meet After So Years

Spring Valley-A happy reunion took
place at Lime Springs near here when
after 53-year separation a brother
and sisters met. Not knowing whether
he would find his sister Griff Williams
from Oklahoma came here to visit her
He was accompanied by his son
daughter-in-law, and two grandsons
The sister, Mrs. j. j. Hughes, who had
not seen her brother since he left their
home in Anglessey, North Wales in 1888
recognized him at once when he arrived
at her home. Although Mrs. Hughes
came to the United States only four
years later than Williams, the two had
not seen each other in the meantime
During the last Is years they had not
heard from one another Mrs. Hughes
has lived near Lime Springs since COM
ing to this country, but Williams has
lived in number of different states.

Farmer Loses Horse
In Unusual Accident.

Olivia-Pete Weis, a farmer living
east of Bird Isand, suffered great loss
last week when a team of his horses
accidently fell into a 24-foot unused
well, the mishap proving fatal to one
of the animals. Mr.. Weis was helping
with shock threshing when on neigh
boris farm AS he drove his team
across the yard, the horses began to
fall through the ground at place half
way between the house and barn, sink
ing into an unused well "a feet deep
and six feet in diameter. After much
difficulty the horses were hoisted out
one dying shortly afterward. Neither
the man who had farmed the place for
nine years nor the owner knew of the
well. 1t is thought, however, that it
may have been there fifty years or more
and that the rotting of the planks COM
bined with heavy rains softened the
covering to cause the accident.

abandoned and underground mining
substituted. From then on the Chand-
Ter doomed for several years and much
ore was shipped. The Minnesota Min
ing Company operated the Chandler
up to the time it was merged with the
Oliver Iron Mining Company.
The Oliver company abandoned the
mine after which Frank Kent and a
company opened up the north forty and
mined. for few years. In the mean
time the south forty of the property
had been opened by the Pattison estate
and ore was mined. Both the north
and south forties have been idle up to
the time the Evergreen Mines Com
pany of Crosby secured the lease a few
months ago.
The Evergreen people under the name
of the Chandler mines company are
now engaged in opening the properties
again under lease from the fee own
ers. Captain Carlson and crew are at
present engaged in fitting the No. S
shaft for active work and will erect a
steel shaft at No. through which the
ore from both the north and south
properties will be hoisted to the sur
face, the old wooden headframe having
been blasted down few weeks ago.
Mr.. Fortier also told the Miner that
Duncan McPhee, a late resident of In
ternational Falls was the original home
steader of the land upon which the
Pioneer mine is operating. He also
stated that Mr.. McPhee sold the prop
erty for a total of $7OO and felt that
he was getting good thing out of it
for timber worth about fifty cents per
thousand.

Adventure Trip
Ends First Day.

Breckenridge-His first day of an ad-
venture that was to have allowed him TO
see the Northwest as a free passenger
on railroad trains, proved to be his last
when Roger c. johnson, while travelling
with companion was stricken in a
freight car with diabetic coma as the
train was entering the local yards. His
partner informed the railroad men as
to JohnSon's condition and the youth
was rushed to hospital where he died
the same evening. Although he had
plenty of medicine with him that he
took to relieve his pain, the youth sank
into a coma so fast that he was unable
to help himself. Contracting a brother
in Minneapolis it was. learned that
Rogers parents had gone to California
on a vacation and he had thought
he would like to see the West.

SAFE DRIVERS
CAUSE MISHAPS
Efforts Being Made to Make
September Safest Month
in Minnesota.

Lets make September the safest
month"
With this slogan, safety leaders of
Minnesota today announced campaign
to reduce traffic deaths usually oc-
curing in September, the most hazard
GUS traffic month in the year.
Such drive was held last year, with
a saving in life resulting.
Minnesota has shown the nation that
it can and will reduce traffic accidents"
A. v. Rohweder of Duluth, chairman OF
the Minnesota Public Safety Commit
tee, sponsor of the drive said today.
September should be one of the most
pleasant months of the year. Instead
it is marred by the tragedies of the
road.
Lets not have a harvest Of grief
during the harvest month"
At the same time, Governor Benson
issued a proclamation calling on the
public to cooperate with safety leaders
in the campaign.
Il urge the public to cooperate to the
fullest possible extent in this laudable
effort to make our highways SAFE" the
Governor said.
81 request that all governmental Of
ficials, the courts and peace enforce
ment authorities take special notice of
the campaign and make united effort
to bring about safety record of note
during September"
Ninety per cent of traffic accidents
are caused by experienced, supposedly
safe drivers, not by the inexperienced
motorist, said Ralph Lee, safety ex-
pert, at the recent Western Safety Con-
ference He cited a California survey
which showed that rs per cent of traffic
fatalities in that state were charge
able to drivers with an average of eight
years experience, who had never had
previous accident.
Finally, he said, before accidents can
be prevented, the popular belief that
the great bulk of them are caused by
a relatively few congenitally reckless OF
incompetent persons, must be corrected
1t is no longer true.
turned many a driver who used to be
careful into a dangerous menace on the
highways. Where the cars of few
years ago gave you thrill at 40, the
cars of today do 60 and 10 with ease
That makes for comfortable motoring
when all goes well-but lack of vibration
and motor SmoothneSs doesn't help
when you careen head on into another
car at mile-a-minute clip. And the
fact that today's highways are safe
from an engineering standpoint, wher
compared to the roads of yesterday
doesn't help when you experience 6
blowout while you're hitting it up
or speed around curve to find the roao
blocked and insufficient room to STOP
1t is the average, experienced, safe
driver who is causing today's accidents
This is the driver who must be reached
by law enforcement agencies, and wis
must be appealed to by safety cam
paigns that are to get results.

Keep Children AWay
From All Sick Persons,

September is always the peak month
for infantile paralysis and while there
were more cases of the disease in
August this year than there were last,
there is no reason, as yet, to fear a
major infantile paralysis or polio"
epidemic in Minnesota. This is the
opinion of the committee on public
health education of the Minnesota State
Medical Association expressed in a
bulletin on the subject issued today.
Forty-three cases have been reported
so far in the state. They are scattered
cases for the most part, according to
the most recent figures available from
the state board of health with the ex-
ception of one community in West
Central Minnesota. Here there seems
to be slight concentration of cases
and health authorities and doctors are
watching this community because of
the possibility of the development of an
epidemic center such as developed in
1880 and 1881 in Southwestern Mime
sofa.
No cause for special alarm was seen
as yet, by the authorities. In st. Paul
only two cases have been reported; in
Minneapolis 10, and in Duluth, 1.
1t was suggested to parents by the
doctors that they watch any illness of
any kind that may develop during the
fall season and report it Immediately
so that the child may have prompt
treatment in case the Illness should by
any chance be polio. The same watch
fitness should be exercised every year
in late summer and early fall. They
| also urge the parents to protect their
children from contact with illness of
any kind and to keep them, as much as
possible, out of crowds.

Those who saw the contest agree
that a most unfortunate incident
brought about the ending of a
great fight. Nader slipped and
his foot twisted under him. Nader
missed a punch and the force of
the lead threw him off balance,
his right foot twisting under
him. Nader went down writhing
in pain. 1t was obvious that he
was through for the evening and
Referee Charley Reynolds stopped
the battle.
DR.. William Woodbridge, Of the
boxing commission staff, exam
ined Nader and said he had
broken a bone.
Nader was not a pleasant spec
tacle as he stood in the ring against
a rock chinned, two fisted punch
toSser, bravely fighting his way
back after some very dishearten-
ing incidents. Roper floore d
Nader in the second round with
left hook, but the Gotham warrior
leaped to his Ieet at once. In the
fourth round Roper outSlugged
Nader and drove him back.
The sharp, accurate punching
of Roper took heavy toll from
Nader. The latter carried a deep
cut inside of his mouth, and he
was gaShed over one eye. His nose
was a crimson fountain before
the end came.
But twas a thrilling spectacle.
Tiger Red Williams was a popu-
lar victory, but not an official
winner over Joe Finnazio, of Bal
timore, the official verdict being
a draw. Tom Ponte outpointed
