Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
Are you ready for emergencies like these?
Now is the time to check your first-aid cabinet . . . for
more accidents occur in the summer than in any other
season of the year.
In fact, during the summer months there is a daily
average of 280 accidental deaths . . . to say nothing of the
almost endless number of bums, cuts, bruises and other
injuries associated with outdoor life.
Regardless of how well equipped your first-aid cabinet
is, it will not do you much good unless you really know
how to give first-aid treatment properly. For example, it is
important to know what to do and what not to do in
situations ranging from minor scratches or cuts to more
serious injuries such as broken bones.
To treat minor cuts: most cuts heal quickly if cared for
promptly, but can become serious if infection develops.
The first and most important thing to do is to wash the cut
under warm running water. Then apply a mild antiseptic
and sterile compress.
If iodine is used, remember that it becomes stronger
with age and old solutions should not be applied.
To treat more serious injuries: falls cause many serious
injuries, especially among young children and people age
65 and over. If you suspect a fall has caused a broken bone,
do not move the victim unless absolutely necessary. Keep
the patient as warm and comfortable as possible and get
medical care promptly.
If an accident occurs and you cannot determine its extent
or seriousness, call a doctor. Describe the injury, tell
him where the victim is, what you have done and the
victim’s apparent condition.
With your description, the doctor can offer suggestions,
decide how urgently he is needed and foresee what equipment
he should bring.
To help you give the right care at the right time, Metropolitan
offers its new first-aid chart. It tells what to do for
many common emergencies-burns, cuts, fainting, poisoning
and others. It also features, with illustrations, the new
method of life-saving to apply when someone is nearly
drowned.
This first-aid chart may help you keep a minor injury
from becoming serious-perhaps save a life. For your free
