Dr. Hague touched on the difference in effect and treatment between tuberâ€" _ In opening his address, Dr. Hague explained that silicosis was the name given to the condition caused by the inhalation of silica dust. _ He showed how the men underground inhaled the dust particularly while drilling and after blasts. The silica was spread in clouds of minute particles. _ These minute particles of silica in some cases entered the lungs in such quanâ€" tities that they could not be gotten rid of by the usual natural processes. The knifeâ€"like edges on these minute particles caused an irritation; the silica in some cases formed injurious chemical combination that caused trouble ; and the coating of the breathâ€" ing passages with the minute dust eventually resulted in a serious condiâ€". tion of the person concerned. « The mines had adopted various measures to avoid the danger of silica dust inâ€" halation. _ The chief methods used were air blown through the shafts after each blasting and the use of water drills. _ Dust inhalation, Dr. Hague commented, was a common cause of lung trouble. One of the specially noteworthy features of the address by Dr. Hague was its entire freedom from technica‘} terms. He achieved the feat of makâ€" ing his knowledge as a specialist clear and understandable with ease for the lavy mind. The Kiwanis Club at the luncheon in the Empire Hotel on Monday were favoured with an address that held the closest interest of all from start to finish and that was most valuable and informative because of the helpâ€" ful facts it disclosed in the fight against the spread of silicosis. For many yvears silicosis has been all too familiar in mining communities, though usually known by the less imâ€" pressive name of ‘‘miners‘ consumpâ€" tion.‘‘ Under any name, however, occupational disease is a serious matâ€" ter for the men who make their living underground in the mines. _ Until very recent years the disease was reâ€" garded much the same as tubenculosis was viewed some years ago. _ Until modern methods had been developed after much study and experiment, there was not much hope for the vicâ€" tim of silicosis, even in its early stages of the condition. Now, howâ€" ever, through the earnest work of men like Dr. Hague, silicosis in its early stages presents no very serious diffiâ€" culties to the specialist. AsDr. Hague pointed out also, special attenâ€" tion is now being given to examinaâ€" tion of the underground workers to see if they are affected or have a tenâ€" deney to the disease. Dr. Hague Explains to Kiwanis Club the Causes of Siliâ€" cosis and How it may be Checked. â€" No Cause for Alarm Here. Government and Mines Coâ€"operate to Fight Silicosis. â€" Interesting and Helpful Address at Lunâ€" cheon on Monday. Earnest Work in Combatting The Spread of Silicosis players we the orcehes In reference to ¢the Masquerade Street Dance last week, under the auspices of the Timmins Lodge of the Moose, The Advance inadvertently omitted the name of Mr. C. Pond in the list of those contributing to the success of the event by good work as one of the orchestra. Mr. J. T. Bridges also assisted the orehestra, and his name was also omitted, the list being secured at a time when The Northern News, of Cobalt, last week says:â€"‘‘*While driving his car on a return trip to Elk Lake the other evening, Lloyd Brewer struck a moose on the road mesar Leeville. He saw an animal ahead of him, but in the darkâ€" ness thought it was a horse. _ When struck, the moose fell across the front of the car, extinguishing the lights and damaging the radiator."" SIVCS familiarly known, from Sudbury, still they are glad to see him get the well merited promotion to the high post to which his company has assigned him. Mr. Stewart has been a resident of Sudbury for the past six years and previously resided in Cobalt for thirâ€" teen years, so that he is an oldâ€"timer in the North. Mr. W. Reid, succeeds Mr. Stewart in Sudbury, as district representative of Canadian Exploâ€" his appointment to the post of general manager of Northern Onâ€" tario and Quebec Mining Districts, in the organization of Canadian Exploâ€" sives, Limited, and subsidiary comâ€" panies, with head ‘office in Toronto, Mr. R. T. Stewart is leaving Sudbury to take up his residence in the Queen City, and Sudbury loses a sterling citizen.. While ~everybody will be sorry to lose Bob Stewart, as he is His many friends in this town and district will be pleased to learn of the promotion won by Mr. R. T. Stewart (more usually known as ‘‘Bob"‘) in the® Canadian Explosives Company service. The Sudbury Star this week says:â€" _ 4 Among the visitors at the luncheon formally introduced to the Club was Dr. R. W. MeceBain, who is associated with Dr. Hague in the work in this camp. At the close of his address Dr. Hague showed a number of slides that depicted the effect of silicosis in its various stages. By the use of the charts, Dr.â€" Hague was also able to explain very clearly how silicosis deâ€" veloped and progressed. One speâ€" cially interesting slide was that showâ€" ing the lungs of a man who had had tuberculosis, the body curing itself, and the man never knowing that he had the condition, until it was reâ€" vealed by the Xâ€"ray. Referring to the reports around the camp as to the results of the 2xâ€" aminations here, Dr. Hague said there was no cause for any alarm. Later, full statistical reports would be pwblished showing the ronditions here as to the health of the men. In the meantime it might be said that there was no foundation forx some of the wild stories told as to the numâ€" ber of men affected by silicosis. Many examined here had been found entirely O.K. culosis and silicosis. _ Diagnosis of silicosis is difficult. Often there are few symptoms apparent. In some cases men will have silicosis in quite advanced form and still be unaware that there is anything wrong. Some men are much more susceptible to silicosis than others. In the earlier stages, silicosis yields to treatment, but when the silica. is incorporated in the lungs, as in advanced cases, there is no way known at present for ridding the Ilungs of the condition, Those having silicosis are usually easy prey for tubereulosis, and where tubercular trouble is added <to siliâ€" cosis the patient rapidly declines It is estimated that every tubereulosis patient endangers the health of ten others. By the usa of the Xâ€"ray machine the diagnosis of silicosis is greatly assisted. Dr. Hague believed that all men working underground should _be examined â€" periodically. Those. showing tendency to silicosis could be transferred to work where they would not be exposed to the danger. Those slightly affected could be treated and cured and removgd from the menace. By such methods the spread of silicosis would be stopâ€" ped. It was with such ideas in miad that the Workmen‘s Compensation Board had taken up the mattss. In" Hague thought the Provincial Hs2alth Department deserved much credit ror the keen interest it had shown in t*e North Land and its people in this matter as well as in other affairs. The mine owners and managers hed also coâ€"operated to the fullest extent. In fact, they had done much ‘more than expected from them. THE PORCUPINE® ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO R. T.
