WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 21. 21 IMPORTANT OPERATIONS A ' DAT, HOSPITAL! Report Says During the First Month After First Wounded Began to Arrive at Vichy Hospitals, This Was Average of 8,000 Cases Treated. Paris.—The Journal Des Debats says' that during the first «onth after the first arrival of wounded at the Vichy ! hospital, where the most important operations are performed, the average of the operations was 20 per day out I of 8,000 cases treated. Of these six hundred operations no! among the ten were some of single fin- ! among the ten wer some of single fin- ! gers and parts of fingers only. Two | iegs, one arm and one wrist were all the serious amputations that proved necessary at this great hospital. This very small proportion of am putations in comparison with wounded of preceding wars is accounted for, 1 first, by the difference in the effects of modern projectiles, which have not so much tendency to produce slivers of bone. bhe wound is more localize 1 and cleaner cut than formerly. In the second place surgical science has pro gressed and wounds that would have seemingly required the amputation of a member of forty years ago are now j treated with a view to saving it. Shrapnel Wounds. J In connection with the treatment of I bullet and shrapnel wounds The Temps that experiments made in a Lyons hospital have demonstrated that the German bullets are magnetic and are in many cases easily extracted by the application of a powerful mag net. In one case at the Desenettes hos pital at Lyons a bullet was extracted from a depth of three and a half inches by an electric magnet powerful enough to lift a ton, while its extrac tion would have been extremely dif ficult by any other process. The mag net Is also being used together wit t radiography to locate bullets, splinters of shells, etc., under the flesh, ren dering Immense services to the sur geons. There is less sickness in the French army after two months on the battle field than in time of peace, due to the efficiency and preparedness of the military health service, according to Professor Bdmond Delorme, medical inspector general of the army and a member of the Academy o i Medicine. Since the beginning of the war he has been on an official mission of in spection of field and other hospitals where the French wounded have been treated. Lesi Than in Peace. "He established in the first place," says The Figaro, “that sanitary con ditions la our army are perfect. The wounded Frenchman Is a healthy man. Sickness Is exceptional. During this war the number of cases of sickness is less than in time of peace.” Complications from wounds cause the most serious trouble. They occur with surprising frequency and gravitv, says Prof. Delorme. They chiefly re sult in gaseous gangrene and tetanus. k injections of oxygenated water are ef ficacious in both cases, but for tetanus, injections of anti-tetanic serum are being used as a preventive. More than six hundred thousand doses of this serum have been turned over to the army health service by the Pasteur Institute since the beginning of the war. By this mean it is expected that the H”es of thousands of wounded will be saved. Eleanor Gates Marries Mr. Frederick Moore Author of the “Poor Little Rich Girl” is Wedded to Well Known Newspaper Man.
