great discovery and it was the work
of Morton which first introduced
ether anesthesia to the world.
Shortly afterward, chloroform was
introduced as an anesthetic in Eng
land and long remained rival of
ether, especially in obstetrics, to
which 1t was more adapted.

unsatisfactory is now attracting
first-class men In greater numbers
than was possible when the anes-
thetic was administered by tech
nicians under the complete control
and responsibility of the surgeon.
This is enlarging the team work
between surgeon and anesthetist.
Dawn of New Century
Promises Better Results
1.-THE first 100 years OF anesthesia
have been called the century of
painless surgery What the new
anesthesiology promises today, at
the dawn Of the new century, Is
the realization of safe anesthesia.
In our poor hospitals, using old
fashioned methods, we have an
average of one death on the oper-
ating table In every 300 surgery
cases. In those few of our hospitals
which have brought their operating
rooms in line with the new anesthe-
siology, we have an average Of one
death for every 5000 cases"
Washington hospitals stand high
in this respect. Emergency Hospital,
for example. was one OF the first in
the country to lay down the rule
that only physicians with special
training be allowed to handle anes-
thesia. 1t prohibited surgeons from
acting as their own anesthetists and
made it compulsory that a physi-
cian-anesthetist must attend each
patient throughout an operation.
AS a result, In the past six years,
there have been only three deaths
on the operating table in $4,000
surgery cases.
Analysis of Deaths
Made by Surgeons
A recent issue Of Anesthesiology,
oficial organ Of the American
Society, contains an analysis pre-
pared by local doctors of Al deaths
under anesthesia in 10 Washington,
hospitals in two years.
Thirty-nine of these deaths are
attributed directly to the anesthesia,
rather than to the surgery.
The three experts say: 'It is not
too much to say that very few
anesthesias progress for more than
a few minutes in average hands
without some degree of lack Of
oxygen, or cerebral anoxia. Com
plete cerebral anoxia for 10 seconds
produces unconsciousness: 20 to 30
seconds causes cessation of brain
waves; three to five minutes
produces irreversible pathological
change in the cerebrum"
These conditions have repercus-
sions all through the system which
may easily prove fatal.

Early Efforts to Found
A Permanent Orchestra

cert as a valiant but, in the end,
unsuccessful attempt to found q
permanent orchestra. 1t was an
effort, however, which finally came
to fruition with the founding Of the
present orchestra in 1881. The last
years have seen the sound develop
ment of the present organization,
winning an audience which looks on
DR.. Kinder and the musicians he
directs as a group OF pleasant
friends from whom the utmost in
enjoyment will be derived.
A program Of that 1902 concert,
conducted by Reginald De Koven
and with Ignace Jan Paderewski as
soloist, is treasured in the files of
the National Symphony Orchestra
now.
On the back page Of the four
page leaflet is a nst--a partial
list'-of guarantors and subscribers
Among them are a few names OF
persons who support the present Or
chestra or whose sons or daughters
are among the orchestra's sup
porters.
Near the top of the page Is listed
.Mr. E. Berliner," the late Emile
Berliner, widely known Washing
tonian. Turn to the rosters OF the
present National Symphony Or
-chestra Association and you will
find the names of Mr.. and Mrs.
Milton w. King in the list OF spon-
sors. Mrs. King is the daughter OF
Mr.. Berliner; Mr.. King is not only
sponsor but the treasurer Of the
association.
