The Brighter Side

IN MY old home town OF
- Pueblo, Colo. which lies
north OF Phoenix, Ariz., where l
am now, we used to think of all
Arizona as the wild and woolly
West, with cowboys and Injuns
and longhorned steers running
around all over the layout.
We thought everybody down
here picked their teeth with
Bowie knives and believed that
the bark of six-guns was music
TO their ears.

stoned on my first visit to
Phoenix some years ago because

that this time my confidence in
the city as being out where the
West begins has been restored
TO some extent by the high
heeled cowboy boots and wide
hats l ee in the streets.

Better Health Ssas. s%'.s
BY Dr. Logan CIendening

THIS is pneumonia weather
l. and we are moving into the
seasonal peak period of this
once dreaded disease.
We face il with a great deal
more confidence in our ability 10
control IL than ever before.
In 1920 the mortality from
pneumonia was about 30 10 40
per cent; in 1880 il was ABOUT
20 to 25 per cent. but in the last
few years it has dropped TO Z
per cent.
This 7 per cent includes old
people, children, invalids very
sick with other diseases. and
those who have been neglected
in the early stages of exposure
10 inclement weather after the
Infection got started.
The mortality in this group,
therefore, can hardly be re-
duced.
DNEUMONIA has been called
the old mans friend be-
cause il removes him from the
earth when life becomes a bur
den, and there is such a thing
as terminal pneumonia. which
occurs in cancer and heart dis
ease and which is really bless
ing in disguise.
This great change in the NOR
tality rate of pneumonia has
been brought about entirely by
the use Of the new sulfa COM
pounds, which really work won
ders IN pneumonia.
The reduction in mortality be-
tween 1920 and 1880 was due
probably TO the use of oxygen
and the use of anti-pneumococ-
cic serum. but neither of these,
or both combined, is as success
ful as the use of one of the
sulfa compounds alone.
As a matter OF fact, except
Tor rest and nursing care. in
most Of the hospitals with which
l am acquainted. nothing is
done for the pneumonia patients
except 10 give them good doses
of the Sulfa drugs with the calm
expectation that they will nearly
always recover.
