CONTRIBUTING CAUSES OF
 DEATH IN ASPHYIA

Artificial respiration by the man. ual prone-pressure method was dis covered and given to the world without 8 patent-by 8 physiolo- gist, Schafer, in 1904. At least Schafer first published his method in England in 1904 and in the United States in 1908. Sir E. A. s. Schafer, whose name rarely or never appears in Red Cross literature on resus- citation or life saving. although the prone-pressure method of artificial respiration, the most efficient method we have, is properly known as the Schafer method.
 In the 1885 edition of their work on Respiration" J. s. Haldane and J. B. Priestly, the distinguished au- thorities on the psysiology of breath ing, say:
 "If Schafer's method of artificial respiration is applied to normal individual who voluntarily suspends his breathing it will be found that it is quite easy to maintain a ryth- mic flow of six litres per minute of air or more into and out of the lungs"
 These authors say Schafer's method is very efficient and can be continued for hours if necessary" '"
 When Schafer published his method he not only described but gave illustrations of the right way to perform artificial respiration. In the Schafer method the subject lies prone, with both arms stretched out on the ground well above the subjects head and out of the op- orators way, the subjects face turned toward one side, no pillow or other support under the subjects head or chin.
 This position has three advan- tages, for the subject. First, the elevation or drawing up of the arms lifts the thorax or chest into the most favorable position for inspira- tion or flow of air into the lungs Second, any fluid, whether water or mucuS, in the air-passages drains from nose or mouth by gravity Third, the subjects tongue is not likely to drop back and obstruct the glottis or entrance to windpipe in ball-valve action, for that occurs from gravity too. Any one of these factors may spell the difference be- tween life and death.
 The method of resuscitation or artificial respiration taught by Red Cross instructors and accepted by the unwary public and medical poli- ticians or pets of politicians hold ing jobs as public health admins | trators, was devised by heaven

become an obsession, then I should clamp down.
 Substitute Other Pleasures
 The gap must be filled, so here is our old friend substitution. ' Why not make plans for parties now and then? Take the children to the zoo, to ball games, marion cite shows, junior concerts or spec ial exhibits, for a change. Try an art gallery, even. This last they will hate with all their hearts, predict, but do it anyway.
 Actually, I believe our world to be pleasure infected. Ready-made fun should be part of life, but not two-thirds of it. Let them provide much of their own fun.
 Movie-mad children get nervous. You wouldn't notice it, but they do. They are young, and they can't have emotion playing tunes all up and down their spines for hours every day without some wear and tear to their feelings. I suggest putting a limit on cinema thrills, depending on age, temperament and lessons.

 because he was always willing to listen. No, more than that, he seemed thankful to be abe to is- ten. And he was 8 boy who quietly got things done.
 Now the poor boy is miserable. He's not just shy-he has an 1N- FERIORITY COMPLEX. And what is more, the whole world knows it.
 Every time he picks up a maga- zine he sees some gracious offer to help him overcome his great ham, dicap. A national handicap upon which fortunes are being made.
 One man offers (for $84) to help him rid himself of this terrible ham, dicap, by teaching him to stand up on a platform and talk about him. self. Strangely enough, he is the same man who wrote best seller about listening instead of talking. And now he doesn't guarantee when he takes the $84 that anyone will want to listen, once a student gets the nerve to get up and talk.
 Nor does he acknowledge that most of the trouble humans get into is caused by talking too much.
 About the only thing we have to say 70 the person who has been humbled by the knowledge that he has fearful inferiority complex is Fine"

WOMAN'S REALM
-BEAUTE- GIorifing
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service staff Writer

I NEkA 0GEVkCC 0GHA vvEAVOG
 The beauty minded who are budget-bound pay the price of be- ing beautiful in time rather than money. They brush their own hair instead of depending on frequent scalp treatments for hair and scalp health. They are experts at the art of home facials.
 They know how to shop and to care for their clothes and so man. age always to look neat, smart and perfectly groomed in spite of lim- tied supply of costumes or of money for cleaners bills.
 If you can afford to go to an exercise salon for body massage treatments and special exercises under the watchful eye of teach CT, you probably have-at least you SHOULD have-few figure prob- lems. If not, you still can be slim and trim and keep 8 youthful fig ure through the years. It comes right down to whether or not you would rather be slender than eat everything in sight. And whether or not you are willing to do few sim pie exercises regularly, walk at least a mile day.
 Professional scalp treatments are wonderful, of course, and it's nice to be able to go to an excellent beauty shop as often as you please, but if these ideas are entirely out of line with the amount of money you have to spend on your appear ance, you still can have lovely hair.
 Proof of this is woman who re- gently made a trip to New York from the little Canadian village B. 800 miles north of the St. Lawrence River. where she has lived for three and a half years. There are only seven white families in that Arctic town, where it's six months day and six months night-no beauty shop, no manicurist in the home of the man who does the barbering.
 Yet this pleaSant-faced woman who came down from the far north for 8 short vacation and to do bit of shopping, has skin as smooth and white as alabaster, as soft as a child's. Her hair is shiny, healthy, really beautiful. Her hands are well groomed, prettily manicured.
 She has learned, and so can any woman who cares, that regular brushing, meticulous Shampooing and real desire to learn to manip- ulate curlers and waterwave combs make for lovely hair. Also that cleanliness and. systematic use of a night cream keep skin attractively youthful and that home manicures can be done with professional touch.

 Unless Attending Sh0zCS Becomes Child:S ObseSSiOn

Now let's look at the movies. The old cry of keeping the children away has lost it's meaning. Moving pictures today are good, excellent.
 I used to hammer the vamp and gang pictures as hard as anybody. I tried to proclaim to mothers that if things continued as they were to keep their children away al- together.
 However, the public itself arose with few vegetables after while, and Hollywood awoke one day to the fact that they would have to do something about it. Now they are still rubbing their eyes, unable to believe that Kipling and Steven son, who were there all the time, are such box office mines.
 Temperance Needed in Movies There are still the sophisticated pictures that children have no bus mess seeing Besides, boys can get the wild-west stimulus into their veins to the exclusion of good gen. eral nourishment. But 1t is not the difficult job to find suitable shows today that it was a few years ago For this, mothers, be very thank | ful.
 Nevertheless, they fit into the same category as most other pleas- ures in life. They can be dreams. They can be escapes. They can be sure poison the minute they get to be so important to man. woman or child that everything else goes by the board.
 I wouldn't allow mere picture shadows to become proxies for tirst-hand living, or allow the chil- dren to sit day after day infusing their personalities in hero and heroine stuff. It only leads to dis satisfaction with life as it is, and life as it must be.
 Temperance is one of the most important factors in character de- velopment and children today are inclined to be incorporate in their amusement hunger. If they can take pictures or leave them, then no harm is done; but when movies

1 knows whom-some movie camera man, probably. It effectively robs the victim of all three of the ad- vantages mentioned, by raising the head up and letting it rest on one of the victims arms.
 There seems to be some mystery concerning the reason why the Red Cross clings so obstinately to this fatal error in technique. The only nominal explanation I have been able to elicit is the rather absurd fear that the victim might get mud, dust or water in nose or mouth if the head were not raised off the floor or ground. One of the features of the Schafer method is that any child can apply it in any emergency provided the child's education has not been neglected. I contend that any child knows enough to see that mud, dust or water shall not get in to the subjects nose or mouth while resuscitation is being applied.
