FIRST AID TRAINING
TO MEN AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Savlng Methods.
The purpose of instruction It) First
Aid to the Injured offered by the Amor
lean Red Cross is to train men and
women to administer First Aid treat
ment promptly and Intelligently when
emergencies demand - It. First Aid
treatment Is not Intended to take (he
place of a physician's service. A sur
geon should always he summoneed as
a precautionary measure where there
Is an Injury of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured a few min
utes' delay may mean a fatnllty. In
such a case a person trained In First
Aid Is invaluable not only to the in
dividual, but through him to the com
munity In which he lives. .
There is perhaps no way of ascer
taining the number of deaths or seri
ous disablements which result from
lack of proper Safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. It Is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appli
cation of First Aid methods to each
case woutd Immeasurably lighten the
country's toll of suffering and death.
| The dissemination of First Aid traln
i lug and information has already pro
' dneed a farrenchtng and beneficial In
fluence In the prevention of accidents
on railroads, In mines and in great In
! dustrlal concerns.
The benefit of a widespread knowl
j edge of First Atd In the event of a
; great disaster, such as a train wreck,
j an explosion, an earthqujke, etc., is
? obvious. Laymen who have had First
i Aid training can render efficient as
| slstance. Many lives may depend npon
such emergency care.

Red Cross chapters, of classes for In
struction in accident prevention and
