ELASTIC ADHESIVE STRAPPING FOB. OLD LEG ULCEBS

One of the familiar sights about hogpltfll- clinics and the waiting rooms of physicians is that of old psople with chronic ulcArs of the lag, These ulcers would likely heal m time i’ the patients could go to bed or. remain there for some weeks. but unfortunately many must be on their feet in order ti) do work in their own or other homes.

Various methods of treatment have been tried including inject- ing the veins about the ulcer, and by cutting tne nerve that supplies this part or" the leg, but although there has been improvement and even complete healing in some gases the ulcer returned after a short or long interval.

‘There hay. always been the prob- gm a.‘ how to trcatland cure tileso old ulcers and yct allow the patient to lnok after his or her work-that. i. lo rcmain on their feet. I have rpflkffl bc-foro of the method of usual: an elastic adhesive tape as advocated -by Dr. Beverley Douglas in the United States, and Dr. Dick- son Wright in Great Britain. '

One of the most important fac- tor; in healing an ulcer is to con- lmct. or draw the tissues tcgether, because the weight of the whole body on the legs naturally spreads of" distends the tissues and pre- icms proper healing. Further, mere is often present much swell- irig and the smrs of former heal- inlri. both of which interfere with the cin-dlating of the blood. This is why the elastic adhesive band- uge is so helpful.

An editorial in The British Med- ical Journal says: ‘

"The elastic adhesive bandgae of which there are several patterns on the market combines the desir- able supporting properties of the old Unna’s past/e boot, the elastic smoking, guttu. percha tfssue, and ordinary adhesive strapping, with- out their‘ disadvantages. It is o! course absolutely necassary that,

The patient should let the phy- sician apply the bandage the first couple of times lbeforc he attempts it himself. Thereafter the band- age is changed every t/wo or thrco wrecks by the patient. '

Then he tolls us a lolly joke about the absucliiy of not calling porridge and bacon and Pugs and coffee breakfast. He kindly explain“. 1.111s joke by assur- ing us that, “The essence of the joke is of course its utter absurdity; for it is clear enough to the boarder lls it now) that if he cats each and all of the aforesaid articles of diet. breakfast will tnkc cnre of lhsself." "Likewise", continue; Old Teacher, ' “if our public schools, History, Geography and Nature Study. Arithmetic. Algebra and Geometry. and finally Grammar (he forgot drawing this time) be properly taught to the pupil, then the pupil's composition will take care of itself." That is indeed a relief! But on what authority. Old Teacher, are ‘ you led “to observe that there i". in fact no such a. thing as a distinct and separate subject which we can call composition”? And that "it i5 in the nature of an absurdity to $068k 0f this subject as n acpliruic mid distinct one"? Is it possible that you do not know that the old .

Rhetoric was considered a subject worthy of the greatest attention.

Had you at least mentioned read- ing or Literature as a. subject help- ful in teaching composition- (Strangely you failed to mention reading or literature among tho Other rchool subjects). Yet that is the one subject that goes hand in hand with composition. When Latin held sway. school boys u2ed Horace and Petrarcli as their models and inspiration: now we have rich mines of Engli"h litera- ture to guide us in our own writing

efforts. You said that the child in’

his early stages learns to write by imitation-so he docs, by imitation and practloe.....--and so he con- tinues to do in grades 7 and 8 aizd 9 and throughout his writing life. By reading the best in literature (and the best of antiquity is trans- lated forus and can help u". more than if we stumble through with our at most very defective Latin or Greek) consciously noting the ex- cclleucies, and unconsciously ab- sorbing much, and by uncensilig practice do we lcnrn to write com- positions, from Ilie beginning till the end.

And lastly, ii may be “absurd". but is nevertheless a fact. that Teachers’ Training school; whcrc- evcr {he art of writing is valued. lay great stress on methods of teaching compositionwompositlon ns a separate and distinct subject, to be trcatcd separately and dis- tinctly: a subject loo important and too distinct and separate to be left. to “take care of itself."

MORNING MARKET LETTER

Although market sentiment was not sufficiently improved yester- day to promote any rally of con- sequence, better support was en- countered on such selling waves as developed and in general the tone was better.

Although the Domestic prim of copper was again reduced to l5 l-2 cents, the copper stocks responded to a better metal market in Lon- don, and an upturn in our export quotations which had fallen out of line. '

No confirmation could be ob- tained from Washington of the rumored possible cut in the gold buying price and if such action was contemplated when stocks and 6011101060185 were at their recent peaks it may be that the market declines have to a large extent re- moved the need in the eyes of the administration.

The whole subject together with the widening discusion in Con- gress of ways and means to bring the budget nearer to brtiuncc abounds in uncertainties that may induce some caution in financial operations ovcr the next few day: In general, however, leading stock; look reasonably priced on last reported earning power and wider interest on the part of buy- ers should develop if the decline is extended.

The motor group will show heaviness apparently traceable to the fact that the industrys labor and material costs have been sub- stantially incrensed and up to this time the expen"e has not been pasaed on to consumers in higher prices for autos. Highcr prices ma)’ be inevitable but it is thought. tlic increases may be deferred until the new models are brought out in the fail.
