TO STOP BLEEDING '!11e'aig-ht of blood is enough to throw many people into confusion.

Ihrtuznately. most cuts are atnarficial and the bleeding will aim quickly. It is when a deep wound causes a heavy flow nf blood that first aid knowledge really comes in handy.

O O 0

While not the recognized first aid method of stopping the flow of blood. St. John Ambulance says these three steps will work in many cases and are the best pro- cedure for anyone untrained in first I.lA'l or medicine:

First. the wounded person should rest. He should be encouraged to lie down quietly and particularly to keep the wounded part still. This will make his blood pressure drop. his pulse will become slow, and less blood will flow into the wounded area. This will reduce the Ion of blood.

Next, elevate t.he wounded part if possible. Bleeding will stop I103! quickly if the wounded part -an arm. leg or the head - is a- bove the level of the heart.

The most important step of all Is to apply firm pressure directly In the wound. This is hy far the snout effective first aid measure beginners, can take. Ordinarily, premure should he applied through a dressing which is bandaged firm- ly to the wound. The dressing should be thick and compressible to facilitate the application of even pressure over the whole area.

Pressure on a wound reduces bleeding because; it compresses all blood vemels leading into the wound and lessens blood flow; it retains shed blood in the wound Iintil clotting occurs.

0 O O

Rarely, in cases of profuse bleed- ing and when a dressing is not immediately available. it is per- minible t.o press with the bare hand directly on the bleeding point. The exact site of maximum pressure can be altered until the most effective position is found.

If sufficient pressure is applied to the wound, bleed-mg will prac- tically always be controlled.

Red letters scrawled on a. sign decorated with moose antlers pro- claim the town of Labrieville. cap- ital of the 8225,oo0,000 Bersimis river power project. The project. to be finished seven years from now, harnesses one of the most important of the rivers flowing into me at. Lawrence from the north- easter Quebec highlands.

This town 250 miles north of Quebec City is the administrative centre for line 4.000 workers on the widespread project. A few miles away dynamite crews blast through rock to dig an eight-mile tunnel that will carry water to generators producing 1,200,000 horse-power.

Named after Magr. N. A. Labrie, Roman Catholic bishop of the gulli of st. Lawrence. and peopled now. by a temporary population, Lubric- ville was built to house the work- ers who will man the power sua- tion when the Bersimls Pltn is fin- ished.

The 2,000 intnabilants of the town, most of them workers, live in dor- mitories. eat in two huge cafeter-,1 ias. Two thousand other workers, at nearby camps have similar ar- rangements.

scattered about the town are a church and presbytery, a hospital. a school for 50 pupils. Quebec hy- dro-electric commission adminis- tration buildings, a bank. tavern and three-cell jail ,as well as pri- vate homes.

Trucks make daily deliveries to the outlying cafeterias where main dishes are cooked. Bread and pea- tries are baked in Lebrieville.

A French-language menu is posted daily in each cafeteria. For 810.50 a week a worker gets lodg- iing and all the food he can eat.

The tavern is open for two hours

in the afternoon and two in the levening. Beer costs 25 cents a 'small bottle. Workers queue up for .two bottles of beer each. may can .have more but must go back to the 'queue to he served.

Besides the nurses, 60 other wo- .men work in the camps. mostly in loffices and cafeterias. They live in is special camp supervised by Mrs. lGeorges Hamel of Quebec City.

He said an Opposition motion, describing as "repugnant" to re- sponsible government the powers given the government under the act, is merely an attempt to de- cide government business before the government wants it decided.

Opposition.Leader Drew won sup- port for the motion from the CCF and Social Credit parties. He charged that the government had abused its powers under the act and that Parliament should make it clear that the government must not ask that the act be kept. in force beyond May 31, present ex- piralory date.

Social Workers Meet In Monctcn To

The March meeting of the N. B.-P, E. I. Bunch of the Can- adian Association of Social Workers was held in the Mental Health clinic. Moncton. with Mrs.,Mary Bishop, president in the chair.

The regular business was con- cerned with the nominations of the Auociation for the coming year. Irurther study was given to the relationship between the Schools of Social Work and the Social Agencies in the Communities.

It is felt that many people in New Brunswick will be particularly interested in an article which ap- peared in at recent issue of ihe Social Worker. the official organ of the Canadian Association of social Workers. The article dealt wi-th the welfare services in this Province and was based on the findings and recommendations of the 1919 Welfare Survey. The sur- vey under the able chairmanship of Miss. Bessie Touzel, then As- sistant director of the Canadian Welfare Council, was carried out under the auspices of the Pro- vincial Government. it is popularly referred to now as the "Touwl Report".

During the 14 weeks the survey was in progress. 5300 miles were traveled and many institutions and organizations visited. Legislation. documents. statistical. and financial data were also examined and in- terviews were held with provincial. city, town and country officials. agencies and citizens organizations. In this manner an attempt was

Reads 8.000 Words PcLMinule

DENVER, Co1o.. (AP) -In the time it takes you to read this little story. George Murch could be done with most of the page of the paper.

Murch, a Denver University stu- dent from Grand Junction, Colo., may be the world's fastest reader. He has been clocked at 8,000 wordss a minute by Dr. George Vardaman, chairman of the gen- eral education division of the uni- varsity.

Strictly speaking, Murch doesn't read the printed word the way most of us do. He absorbs ideas instead of words and takes in whole pages at a glance, like a photograph.

Dr. Vnrdaman said tests show that Murch remembers what he reads. In fact, the faster he reads, the more he seems to retain,

The average person. Vardaman says. reads about 260 words per minute.

The cabinet had discussed exten- pslon but had refrained from mak- llllg I. decision, because it hoped that an extension would not be needed.

The Opposition motion had been brought forward because the act might lapse removing the oppor- tunity of crying "wolf-wqlf" and raising the "bogey" of one-party state. No one disputed Parliament's supremacy or the rule of law.
