The Northern Miner last week saysâ€" | "The experience of Northern Aerial Minerals Exploration prospectors dur~{ ing the past summer in the Copperâ€" | min aend Bathurst Inlet areas st.rong-: ly accentuates the value of real proâ€" | specting by trained men as opposed to| casual examination by cxplorers. In the past 100 years a number of men, some of them well qualified, have trayvâ€" elled the subâ€"Arctics, have reported on the country along the Coppermin: River valley, the shores of Corcnation Gulf and Bathurst Inlet and the isâ€" lands thereabouts. In the past decade several such examinations of discovery have been made, and the returns thereâ€" from were available to the acsrial proâ€" specting organizations. "The fact emerges that the N.A.M.E. engineer found, upon close examinaâ€" tion, that the finds detailed did no: amount to anything. In a few weeks of independent work his own men fcound very much more ore than had been reported in all the years the Arcâ€" tic has been travelled. Furthermore, the finds of bornite and chalcocite, reâ€" norted in this issue, were entirely new and had not been mhentioned by any previous explorer. They were, of course, somewhat off the beaten track. posits of possible importance. The proâ€" spectcers found that the Eskimo is not a reliable guide to occurrences.

VALUE OF TRAINED MEN IN THE WORK OF PROSPECTING "Captain Sandoe‘s life has seen treâ€" mendous changess in mining practice. As just one sample the old hand drill ing has given way to machine drilling â€"and that in Cobalt‘s time. It would be a great addition to the amenities of northern life if the Captain were to make enough money out of Temiskâ€" aming so that he would have, to proâ€" perly round out life of hard work, a little leisure to induige his pencha:i for reminiscing." "Everybody will wish that Captain | Dick Sandoe makes a mint cf money out of the lease that he has with three others on the Temiskaming Mine at | Cobalt. Recently he found a tenâ€"inch vein of high grade, and a sample has been on show at the Bank of Toronto| at Cobalt. The specimen looks likel old times, and has awakened many a poignant memory and evoked many a.l yarn about the big finds in the early‘ days. Here‘s hoping that Captain Sandoe‘s discovery has a 500â€"foot back' and a big depth, for this delightfull old Cousin Jack, who typifies all that: is best in that brave breed, has been! going down mines for 60 years, or‘ thereabouts. "Captain Dick started working when a lad nine years old. When he first went down the ladders his little legs were too short to reach the rungs, and so they used to put a belt around his waist with a rope attached to the man above and the man below so that in case the ilittle fellow slipped he would not fall to the bottom of the shaft. Those were the days in tin mining in Cornwall when the whole family worked, frequently as tributors, the men and boys at extracting the ore and the girls and women at cobbâ€" ing it. His first job was to crawl into narrow seams, too small for a man, and hold and turn the steel while the minâ€" ers plied their hammers. And when ct working at this, his little hands busied themselves rolling fuse out of gunpowder and bulrushes.

TTMMINS. ONTARIO The Nature of the Treatment In brief it has been demonstrated that the blood of individuals who have recovered from the disease, even years previously, has a resistance to the invaâ€" sion of the disease. In fact so abunâ€" dant is this immunity in the bodies of The Nature of the Onset The presence of a single case in the community should put a mother on inâ€" stant guard against evidence of allâ€" health among her children. As a rule the disease is most prevalent from July to the end of November, but occasionâ€" ally a few cases do appea.r at other seaâ€" sons of the year. The onset is usually sudden. If one of the children comes home exhausted almost to prostration, burning with fever, complaining of headache, stiff. sore neck and back, tender muscles, and an uneasy stomach, it is imperative that your doctor be summoned in order that a speedy diagnosis be made. Even though the symptoms do resemble inâ€" fluenza or other less serious childhood complaints you cannot afford to risk the chance of delay. Fortyâ€"eight hours of inflammation is usually sufficient to destroy the vital nerve cellsâ€"and weakness with probable paralysis will be the outcome. It is during this critiâ€" cal period of fortyâ€"eight hours that the serum must *be administered to be efâ€" fective. "Thus you will notice that adminisâ€" tration of the new convalescent serum treatment early in the course cof the disease has more than reversed the picâ€" ture. If we except the two children in twenty who might have recovered by chance without the serum we can credit the new treatment with the clear gain of sparing fifteen out of every twenty who would otherwise either have died or suffered deformity. The Nature of the Disease The disease is caused by an inflamâ€" matory agent which attacks and desâ€" troys the spinal nerve cells which supâ€" ply motive power to the muscqles. Once this destructive process is established paralysis results and administration of serum is useless. If, however, parents are on the alert and make an early diagnosis possible by calling their docâ€" tor on the appearance of any of the following mentioned symptoms, it will then be possible for him to administer the protcetice serum to neutralize the inflammation and check the advance of the destructive paralysis. Although we have long recognized the disease as one chiefly attacking young children, the term "Infantile Paralyâ€" sis" is somewhat misleading because we have found that among cases reported throughout Canada during the last few years the largest group were of school age. Recently there have been several cases of infantile paralysis in the proâ€" vince of Ontario, though fortunately the North has escaped. The Ontario Dept. of Health has pointed out that there is no cause for alarm, but that every precaution should be taken to prevent any spread of the disease, and all efforts should be centred to avoid the evil effects of the malady. A cirâ€" cular has been issued by the Ontario Department of Health giving the sympâ€" toms of infantile paralysis and other particulars and urging parents and others to watch closely for any signs of the malady. The sensible and timely advice is given to send for the doctor if in any doubt about the matâ€" ter.. Emphasis is given to the fact that there is a serum for the treatment of infantile paralysis and that it has proved very efficacious. If the doctor is called in sufficient time the chances of any permanent disability are reâ€" duzced to the minimum. GOVERNMENT HAS SERUM _ FOR INFANTILE PARALYSIS "Infantile Paralysis" or Prior to the adoption of the method of treatment now in vogue this fear was well founded, but fortunately it is possible now with early diagnosis and treatment to prevent, not only death but permanent crippling, in. the vast majority of cases. "In order that we may better emphaâ€" size the value of this treatment let us compare the results following the use of convalescent serum with those cases in which the serum was not used. Durâ€" ing the Ontario epidemic of 1929 four out of every twenty children who did not receive convalescent serum died, while fourteen were deformed witn paralysis, and only two recovered to normal health. "Contrast this with those who did receive the protective serum before any paralysis appeared. Here we see cighâ€" teen in every twenty recovered comâ€" pletely with no paralysis; death still claimed one, but, most noteworthy of all, only one of each twenty developed residual paralysis.
