 MAKE AEhHEVE MASKS
 Once an 0rFor becomes estahlisla- cd with tho public it becomes exc treraely difficult to correct. Tn. stances are tho conventional prae- tiee of saying "tha fracture was reduced by pr. go-and-so' whether it was ''set" immediately after the accident or not, Reducing that is, bringing the fragments Of broken bone Into as nearly perfect position as posslhle-requlres days la many cases, Another instance is the nis- application of the term 'Aphasla." For many years that term was ap- piled to loss of memory. Most people now know AYnnesia is the proper word for it. "Aphasia" means loss of speech or the power of articulation). Another common error is the con- fusion of tho terms antlseptic and aseptIC,
 Antiseptlc means the use of chem- icals which prevent or lessen the multiplication Of germs. Antiseptics do not destroy disease germs as Q rule - except certain germlcides Germ killers which would be too destructive to body tissues to use medically or surgically.
 Aseptic means without germs, germ-free, sterile.
 The antiseptic area in surgery began when Lord Lister, English surgeon, introduced the use of 0 constant spray Of solution of car. bolic acid in the air of the operat- iag-rooE1l, as well as the use of such a1tiseptic solutions for Instruments, dressing, and the wound and the surgeons and his assistants hands in the latter part of the nineteenth century. The practice of keeping the atmosphere sprayed with carbolic acid proved SO dangerous to every one in the operating room that 1t was soon abandoned. But the use Of carbolic acid, corrosive sublimate and other poisonous chemicals in solutions for skin, wound imple. mefltS and dressings became routine and was the practice in "antiseptic" surgery for many years. On this practice was based the Idea that q good dash Of some such strong" antiseptic Is adequate treatment for wounds in general--this notion has been entertained by too many phy. sicianS who should know better. Rarely does Q layman comprehend the distinction between antiseptic and aSeptlc-the layman suspects 1t Is just q bit Of medical lingo calculated to confu6e the unlnitiat- cd. At least that's the way t seems to me when Q laymar describe how no or she has used "antiSeptic" precautions.
 The aseptic era began when phy- sieians and surgeons acquired more knowledge of bacterlology and real. ized that 1t B infinitely better to exclude germs from the wound or
