Respiration should be\nkept up on an asphyxiated person\nuntil the victim recovered or until\nrigor mortis set in, the doctor claimed, and this sometimes meant hours\nof hard work beyond the strength of\nmoat men.\nHe also explained the theory of\nthe lungs oDeration. after telling\nbriefly of the public fund-raising\ncampaign to purchase the lung.\nMr. Bennett demonstrated the\nmechanical workings of the large\nmachine as well as the small Inhal-\nator-respirator, also recently added\nto the equipment of the Hospital.\nConsiderable research and trouble\nwas necessary in the planning and\nconstruction of the two machines,\nhe said, and at times it was necessary to conduct month-long searches\nto obtain necessary parts from factories.

It called our\nattention to the stiff muscles. It\nmade us realize we wore 18 or 20\nwhen we wanted lo think we were\njust about 14 in size, and it showed\nhow a corset can control thc figure.\nThe greatest benefit we derived\nfrom the garment was the urge to\nfly to the nearest gymnasium and\ndo some streamlining. Every girl or\nwoman who tried wasp-waist corset\nwas sure to get lo work on her\nfigure. Fust, because she thought\njt was going to be the slyle and\nshe would have to wear it, and again j\nbecause she found how impossible j\nlt was to get her figure into it.\nFortunately for all of us, it was\njust a passing fancy, so far as general wear goes, but it surely made\nus figure-conscious. Since then girls\nare more inclined to use the tape\nmeasure and pay attention to their\ncalories. They will take their exercises more seriously, too. and wc\n\u2022may expect to see supple waists\nand slender hips us a result of thc\nwasp-waist corset.\nDaily stretching nf the waist\nmuscles is marvellous. Here's one\nexercise: Kneel on Ihe floor, stretch\nTight foot forward out in front with\nstraight knee. Raise arms, circle\noverhead, then bend forward, to the\n]eft, back lo the right and forward\nto first position.\nVishioff Retains a\nSolicitor to Appeal\nConviction, Nelson\nW. J.

He dropped it, That\nmeans he was interrupted\u2014probably by Mr. Montcalm coming out\nIhe denr. He must have ducked\nsomewhere to hide. I'm looking for\nhis tracks at the side of the path,\nbut so many people have walked\naround here I KLiess -t'5 hopeless.\nThere aren't any tracks of hobnailed shoes, and I could have\nsworn there weren't any here last\nnight, either. It's hard to tell without good lights. This place ought\nto have electric lights. How is it\nlighted, anyway?\"\n\"I thought there used to be a\nstring of electric globes overhead,\"\n.said the detective named Sullivan.\nThe captain called to the man on\nguard at the boat landing. \"Oh,\nCharlie, ever been past here on the\nriver boat at night? Ever sec any\nlights in this garden?\"\nCharlie yelled back, \"Sure there's\na string of lighLs on a wire clear\narrow the court. Must be right near\nyour hoad.\"\nThe captain waved the beam of\nhis flashlight skyward, \"That's funny. There sure isn't any wire here\nnow, or any lights, cither.\" The\nIx-am of light swung around to thc\nwall of the South wing of the clubhouse. \"But there's something interesting:\"\nA moment Later he wa? standing\nnext' to the wall, fingering a short\nwire that dangled from an iron\nstaple at tho height of the second\ns-tory windows. \"Somebody pulled\nthe wire down. Thia is the end of\nit.\" He glanced toward the North\nwmg, throwing his light that way,\n\"And it passed pretty cnlse over\nthc spot where Markham waa killed .Ve the other end over by that\nwindow across 'he way. I wonder\nif the wire could have been \"pulled\ndown last night ... if it could have\nhad anv connection with thc murder-\"\n\"I-I couldn't say,\" I stammered I\n\"It-it sounds fantastic\"\n\"You never can tell.\" the captain persisted. \"This may he important. I'm going to grt in touch\nw 'h .Minie of the servants and find\nout if this happened during the\nparty I don't see the wire lying\naround anywhere \"\nWe searched the ground for several minutes with flashlights, but\nthere was no win. Then he went\nindoors to the telephone.\nHe located lhe number he wanted \"Hello,\" he said aftrr a pause.\n\"Is this Tonv PappinT r>i you know j\nan>lhing about the electric light\nwire across the court back of the\nclubhouse? . .

Thank you, Tony,\"\nHe hung up the telephone, inserted the cigar,In one side of his\nface and said grimly, \".lust as I\ntold you, Strickland! That wire\nwas pulled down about the time\nMarkham was killed. There's some\ncon nre t ion. Tony said the lights\nwere burning at 10 o'clock when\nthp moon came up over the top of\nthc building and he shut them off.\nThe switch is in the hallway next\nto the kitchen door. Let's take a\nlook at it.\"\nWe found thc box on the wall,\nabout 10 feet from the glass doors\nthat led out into the court, There\nwere dirty fingerprints all over it,\nThe Captain whistled. \"Here's a\njob for you, Sullivan. Get photographs of all these. See if they\nmatch thc prints wc found on the\ncroquet mallet.\"\n\"On the croquet mallet?\" I\nasked, startled.\n\"Yes, we found a broken croquet\nmallet in the rose arbor where the\nkilling took place. If the print* are\nalike we can be sure it's an inside\njob.\"\n\"Not necessarily,\" I objected.\n\"Tony switched off the lights. Your\nkiller didn't have to go near the\nswitch.\"\n\"H'm, I guess you're right at\nthat.\" He mused a moment, chewing thoughtfully, Then, \"But if this\nwas a carefully thought-out plan,\nas I think it was, that electric wire\nwas used, and the killer knew K\nwas going to be used. If Tony\nhadn't pulled the switch\u2014luckily or\nmaybe by order from the killer\nhimself\u2014the killer would have had\nto come into the hall and pull it\nhimself. If he could come into the\nhall without attracting attention,\nhe must be known here at the club.\nHe must be someone who can turn\non or shut off lights without anyone paying much attention to him.\nI've already decided as much, because he struck Markham from in\nfront. He was not a stranger.\"\n\"You may be right,\" I agreed.\nalthough I was sure he was wrong\nin some respects. \"It looks all the\nmore like I'm guilty, doesn't it?\"\nHe shook his head, \"No, no.\nStrickland. I'm not trying to drag\nyou into it again. You were upstairs. Several witnesses proved it.\nYou couldn't have come down the\nlight well to the garden, because\nTony and the servant girl were sitting in the kitchen then and would\nhave seen you. Your alibi isn't\nbroken. Don't worry about what\nCoroner Silver may think He's\nyoung\u2014hasn't had much experience yet.\"\n\"How about a motive?\" I in*\nquired. \"Why was he killed1 If\nthere seems to be no reason for his\ndeath, couldn't he have just encountered some river rat, Ukt I\ndid1\"\n\"Do you think we ought to blame\nit on some river rat and forget it1\"\n\"That looks like your best bet,\"\nI told him, \"You haven't even established a motive\u2014and I thought\nthat was always the first thing the\npolice have to do,\"\n\"Why do ynu keep saying\ndon't know \"the motive? Why do\nvou think there wasn't any1\"\n\"Why, I \u2014 I didn't think there\nwas one,\" I said in confusion. \"You\nhaven't said\u2014\"\n\"Wo don't go around telling\neverything we have discovered. A\na matter of fact, the newspapers\nalready have mentioned one motive,\nWe tried lo keep it quiet, but It's\nout now. You forget, maybe, that\nMarkham was a jeweller. He had\njewels on him,\"\nI gasped in surpise. \"Jewels!\"\n\"Yes.\" hc nodded. \"Diamonds.\"\nAs w$ drew near the door again he\nwore a half grin, amused by my\nconsternation. \"You will discover\nmore about it at the Inquest tomorrow. The motive may have been\nrobbery.\"\n\"But, if he had Jewels on him, tha\nrobber didn't get them. How could\nIt have been robbery?

Chief McDonald said, \"even\nthe best professors would say were\nhard.\"\nIt was up to the Fire Depart\nment ot the modern day as a prov\ning ground, to try out new equip\nment which was constantly being\ndeveloped by scientific minds.\nAs someone had said, \"you oan\nbuy new buildings, but you can't\nbuy life,\" the Chief quoted, so It\nwas vitally necessary to practice\nconstantly. This practice included\nrope knots, saving of life, ladder\ndrill, hose drill, and so on. No two\nfires and no two hose hookups were\nexactly thc same, the Chief said, so\nit was necessary to practice under\nnow conditions at different times.\nSome might believe it was a fireman's job to put out fires, and sometimes wondered why the departments were so Interested in fire\nprevention. Many people thought\nthat fire could never strike them,\nbut Chief McDonald gave an instance of a building of concrete,\nwith steel sashes, in which 115 lives\nwere lost\u2014\"so it could happen to\nanyone.\" Some treated fires lightly\nbecause usually not a great amount\nof flames could be 'seen. Ninety-\nnine per cent ot fires were on the\ninterior of a building-\"but look\nat the damage they do,\" he said.\nA tire department needed cooperation in every possible way, and il\nwas at a big disadvantage when\ncivic authorities began to cut down!\ncosts to such an extent that they reduced Ihe dopartment staff and reduced water services. \"Why, it jeop-\nnrtiize** (he lives of your children\nand mine,\" the Chief said.\nHe suggested ways and means ofj\npreventing fires, such as clearing\nout rubbish from the rear of stores,\nremoving oily rags, and so on. Cigarettes caused 40 per cent of mercantile fires, so he urged the Rotar-I\nians and others lo take particular\ncare wilh smoking.\n\"It is your Fire Department, yours\nto be called on anytime you want\nit. so let's work together,\" the Chief\nconcluded.\nR.

C.-TUESDAY MORNINQ. APRIL 23, 1940-\nKootenay Lake (general Hospital Has\nTwo \"Iron Lungs\" to Fight Death\nOne Adult, One Baby\nSize Constructed\nby Nelsonite\nFUNDS SUBSCRIBED\nKootenay Lake General Hospital now hai two \"Iron lungi\"\u2014\nona for adults and another for\nbabies. They wart constructed by\nJ. G. Bennett ol Bennett's Ltd.,\nthe only parts purchased being\nmotors, guages and castors. They\nhave been tested by Dr. F. P.\nSparks, City Medical Health Officer, who hai made a special\nstudy of \"Iron lungi\" and their\nuses, and havt passed with flying\ncolors. One of them, the smaller\none, has already been used for\ntreatment of a condition far removed from Its original purpose\n\u2022 nd has proved to effective that it\nmay mean the saving of a woman's arm.\nConstruction of the two \"lun^s\"\nwas made possible through public\nsubscription, about a year ago, of\na fund to supply a \"lung\" for Kootenay Lake General Hospital. At that\ntime it was intended primarily to\nafford equipment tor treatment of\ninfantile paralysis patients whose\nlungs or throat were affected. Then,\nwhen it was announced Lord Nuffield, British philanthropist, would\nbuild and supply \"iron lungs\" to\nEmpire hospitals, the trustees of\nthe fund delayed their intended\npurchase, making application for\none ot those to be supplied by Lord\nNuffield.\nFEARED DELAY\nA few of these \"lungs\" have recently arrived in British Columbia,\ngoing to smaller hospitals, but it\nappeared It might be some time before One was available here.\nTrustees of the \"Iron Lung Fund\"\nthen decided to proceed with construction locally, and the final result was two\u2014an adult and a baby\nsite \u2014 instead of one. Both have\nmeasured up In testa.\nEnamelled In gleaming \"hospital\nwhite\", the two \"iron lungs\" look\nlike nothing so much as pictures\nwhich have appeared in many publications since these new aids to\nmedioal science became news.\nBriefly, their specifications are:\nAdult \"lung\" \u2014 Length overall\n\u2022even feet, six Inches; length inside\nsix feet; diameter two feet, six\ninches; height five feet, six Inches,\nBaby \"lung\"\u2014Length two leet;\nwidth one foot; height three feet.\nEMERGENCY LEVERS\nBoth are powered by quarter-\nhorsepower electric motors, and are\nequipped with hand levers fw\nemergency operation in case of\npower failure.\nThe purpose of the \"Iron lung\"\nis to supply mechanically, and without injury to the patient, the power\not breathing when such power has\nbeen interrupted or impaired by\ndisease. It provides, through varying air pressure upon the body,\nthe chest and lung action of natural\nbreathing. Hence it operates chiefly as an aid to Nature.\nThe principle of the \"iron lung\"\nis this; With the patient in it, the\nhead only being exposed, the motor\noperating through reduction gears\nexpands and contracts bellows, and\nthese in their turn create a vacuum\nwithin the cylinder of the lung.\"\nBy means of gauges and valves the\nair pressure within the cylinder is\nautomatically and rhythmically reduced and then permitted to return\nto normal. When the air pressure\nis reduced, air enters through the\npatient's nostrils or mouth and inflates the lungs, the ordinary pressure of air baing sufficient for this.\nWhen air pressure in the cylinder\nreturns to normal the natural collapse of the chest expels the air\nfrom the patient's lungs in the same\nmanner as natural exhaling. Thus\nby varying the air action the \"iron\nlung\" causes a patient's lungs to\ninflate and deflate, and the chest\nto rise and fall as they would naturally.\nAll this Is done by the motor,\nbellows and cylinder, regulated by\ngears, valves and gauges.\n\"PATIENT\" FOR TE8TS\nJack Dawson, employee of Bennett's Ltd, served as \"patient\"\nfor tests of the adult \"lung.\" He\nexperienced no discomfort while\nthe regular breathing pace was\nmaintained by the machine. He\nhad to breathe 'Regularly and\nevenly and when speaking hit\nwords were cut off short when\nthe \"lung\" made him Inhale. He\nhad no dlfflcutly when exhaling.\nThe adult \"lung\", is ln use.\nThe baby \"lung'\nBelow: Open and extended, readv\nto receive a patient, the adult\n\"lung\" looks like this.\nThe deep breathing Induced by\nthe \"lung\" gave him > feeling ot\nexhilaration which lasted until he\nwent to bed, he stated.\nAll this is done by the motor,\nbellows and cylinder, regulated by\ngears, valves and gauges.\nIn order that treatment of a patient, other than the induced breathing, may be carried on without interrupting the mechanical breathing\nsupplied by the lung, Mr. Bennett\nprovided \"ports\" and windows on\neach side of the cylinder. Doctors\nand nurses, when handling a patient or providing other treatment,\nopen the airtight ports and thrust\neach hand and aim through a small\nhole in the rubber \"saucer\" in the\n\"ports,\" meanwhile watching what\nthey are doing through the windows. The rubber, closing about\ntheir arms, permits the mechanlc.il\n\"breathing\" to continue while they\nwork.\n\"PATIENT\" ENCLOSED\nTo place a patient in the adult\n\"lung the front is detached and\npulled forward, and a stretchcr-likc\nbed as pictured above slides out.\nThe patient is placed upon a comfortable air mattress, head through\nthe \"port\" at the detachable end,\nand with a soft rubber \"collar\"\nfitting around the neck. The \"lung\"\nis then closed and locked, and thc\nmachinery set in motion. From lint\npoint forward the motor takes care\nof the patient, eliminating even thc\nnecessity of trying to brealhe, and\nanything that has to be done by\nnurses or doctors is doi.e through\nthe \"ports.\"\nEmploying the same principle,\nbut naturally smaller and hence\nrequiring less elaborate \"ports\" and\nso on, thc baby \"lung\" has even\nwider uses, for it has been constructed to serve either as a respirator or an incubator, or if necessary,\nas both at the same time. Instead\nof opening at the end to place a\npatient in it, the baby \"lung\" has a\nlid. It will probably be ot greatest\nvalue In saving the life of premature babies who enter the woild\nunder a handicap and who need\nMOYIE RID CROSS\nHOLD SECOND SOCIAL\nMOYIE, B.
