Emphysema Is
More Common
(Editor’s Note: This is one in
a series of articles about your
health which will appear in The
Taylor County News as a public
service feature.)
By The Medical Association
of Georgia
Emphysema is a condition in
which the little cells in the lungs
are dilated and the walls are
over-distended. You might
think of it as a ballooning of
the lungs. It is becoming more
and more common and a greater
hazard to health.
People who have emphysema
to a significant degree can be
easily recognized. They are
barrel-chested, short of breath
and have a chronic cough. The
disease is six times more com
mon in men than in women and
is usually found in a man past 40
who smokes or is asthmatic.
Although emphysema is not
contagious, it tends to "run”
in familes.
The fact that emphysema—
already more common than
tuberculosis and cancer of the
lungs—seems to be increasing
rapidly can perhaps be explain
ed in several ways. For one
thing, the number of persons in
the older age groups in the
United States is increasing. We
know that aging causes some
loss of elasticity in the lungs
and that this allows the tiny
cells or pockets todilate. When
one of these pockets dilates it
crowds out a normal lung poc
ket. Eventually there are only
a relatively few large pockets
instead of about 750,000,000
tiny pockets. The fewer large
pockets can’t absorb as much
oxygen from the air as the more
numerous small pockets,
A second probable cause of
the increase is that Americans
today are subjected to or sub
ject themselves to more irri
tants whichcause them tocough.
It has been suggested that be
cause the air we breathe is less
pure, we have more bronchitis
today than heretofore—despite
the miracle drugs. Smoking has
also been implicated. It’s been
said that smoking one pack of
cigarettes a day is worse than
living in smog. According to
some authorities, ninety-
five per cent of the people with
emphysema are heavy smokers.
When smoking is added to
breathing smog-filled air,
bronchitis and emphysema are
to be expected.
Recent studies in Los Angeles
showed that 30 ton of sulfur
dioxide and 1200 tons of hydro
carbons from factories and cars
are dumped into the air each
day. It's been said that city
dwellers who smoke and breathe
unclean air are the most likely
candidates for emphysema.
A third suggested cause for
the emphysema increase is that
some respiratory illnesses—
asthma, chronic bronchitis,
bronchiectasis, pneumoniosis-
and certain types of heart
disease are increasing and
since emphysema is ofen a
jtfs we anticipate the future and its promise of
new accomplishments, we also reflect on the past and the
feeling of well-being we have enjoyed in our community.
It is with sincerest thanks to our loyal friends and
customers that we wish happiness in the New Year to all

Miss Foster Weds Mr. Turner
At Grace Methodist Church
The Grace Methodist Church
of Atlanta formed the setting
for the wedding of Miss Helen
Foster of Statham and Atlanta
to Mr. Bailey Turner of
Thomaston and Atlanta. The

Mrs. Herschel P. Foster and

groomsmen were Theodore
Barrow of Macon, uncle of the
groom; Reginald Poteat of
Charlotte, N. C.; Glenn Martin
and Terrell Hurst of Atlanta.

complication of these condi
tions, it too is increasing.
Changes in the lungs due to
emphysema are irreversisble
but the disease can be arrest
ed and treated. The most im
portant part of treatment is
really prevention. Everyone
recognize the danger of a
chronic cough. It rnay be a
warning of or the first sign of
emphysema. Medicines,
sprays, antibiotics and exer
cises will help keep the lungs
clean, relieve the spasm and
pressure of the small pockets.
The resulting improvement in
the function of the lungs wards
off further damage.

Mrs, Gaultney lost her sight
when her last child was born,
but readers of her poems
would probably feel that she
can see better than most. Her
faith comes through clearly and
simply in these of her lines
which are perhaps typical of
her book:. . . But in my very
darkest hours, His light shone
brightest then, of all.
