Uf QmUmtm Aokfamy* Hi ton The Advance Of Surgery The discovery of anesthesia and antisepsis, both effectively achieved during the middle of the last cen tury, made modem surgery possi ble. Lister applied antisepsis fh 1865. The first public demonstration of ether anesthesia took place at the Massachusetts General hospital in 1846. The value to humanity of these attainments cannot be overestimat ed, and yet their bearing upon the advance of modem surgert is fre quently misconceived. “To practice the surgery of today there is need for more than an ether can, a scalpel, thorough antisepsis or asepsis, and a knowledge of ana tomy. Many have attempted to define the desirable qualities of the sur geon. Training and experience are essential. Manual dexterity Is de irable. But in addition, and as im portant, are certain character qual ifications, such as oqtppge. the ability to maintain mental compo sure when facing the unexpected emergency, and a certain form of ingenuity that borders oq, genius. The surgeon must frequently work in tight places and get around seeingly insurmountable obstacles. The human body, unlike the modem automobile, was not de signed to place its parts within easy reach of th "repair man." Surgery within the chest cavity, for | example, has had to face the ex tremely involved problems of the inaccessibility of Its contents. How, 1 for example, can we reach the eso- : phagus, which is placed in the | neck, behind the windpipe, and in ‘ the chest, behind the lungs and the - heart. The surgeon’s path Is fre- j quently blocked by important blood vessels, major nerves and organs wich cannot be handled with im punity. And yet the surgeon some how manages. Here is an illustration from a re cent surgical advance. In Infection I of the mastoid, the bony promin- • ence behind the ear is opened and I the accumulatd pus is evacuated. This is an essential procedure be cause. if the pus is not “let out," infection may extend to Involve the brain coverings and the brain. But recently it Was found that the or dinary mastoid operation does not always suffice to obviate the danger of meningitis. Pm nearby there is another bone structure that may contain pus and which then like wise requires opening. Within this structure, however, is placed a ma jor artery which. If punctured dur ing operation, presents a grave problem. How then can the sur geon operate here with safety? One ingenious operator solved the problem, first he lays bare the blood vessel, which Is encased by the bone. Then having moved the intact vessel to one side, he has a free field in which to work High Point Girl Dead HIGH POINT, NOV. 25.—(A*)—An automobile struck and killed Jean Sumner, small daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Delvert Sumner, and H.

SHELBY’S FINEST PLAYHOUSE Wednei. - Thurs. - Big Football Special! Old Razor Blade Problem Solved, Reich Saves ’Em BERLIN. Nov. 25.—<*■) — Ofr many's anti-waste drive has provid ed one solution to the knotty “what to do with old rasor blades” prob lem. Its answer Is, “save them.” The third Reich believes that 1.600.000.000 marks—I603.000.ooo la wasted every year in food products and materials. It has adopted sev eral measures to convert that waste into a savings. Voluntary helpers are collecting every bit of scrap metal from households, even discarded con tainers and curtain rods. Nothing is too small, nothing too insignificant —not even old raaor blades. In subway stations and post of fices, special cans are provided for odd bits of metal which co-oper ative cltlaens want to get rid of. Sea gulls’ pickings from German ships will be slim in the future. The North German Lloyd and Hamburg-America Line have in stalled special receptacles aboard their ships'to collect and preserve kitchen leavings. The refuse will be dried during the voyage by a special process and will be used later to feed hogs. In the port of Hamburg, a spe cial ship has been stationed as a dump for all odd bits of metal, however useless, which otherwise might heedlessly be tossed over board.
