A backward look may shed surprising new light on those "relaxed" times and incidently help us put our own dangers into better focus Around 1890 a woman whose husband contracted pneumonia knew immediately he would probably die In 1900 pneumonia ranked as the No1 cause of death in the country Diphtheria was killing 8000 working conditions he pleased Bank failures were frequent and a man's savings could vanish people a year most of them children Typhoid small pox and yellow fever epidemics struck often each taking hundreds of lives The risk of dying on the operating table was great A diagnosis of diabetes meant a drastic upheaval of an individual's life The rate of deaths of women in childbirth was about 15 times greater in 1915 than it is today Baby deaths were also far higher than they are today - over--nig- - What about the "good old icy'"?

Don't you (think our colonists living in fear of bloody Indian massacres had intense anxieties too? Don't you believe 'the Indians themselves being driven from their homeland had their share of fears? We must constantly bear in mind that people in all times have faced dangers that were to them as severe as ours seem to be to us We must never Contimsed on page 25 forget that others have ' ( — 7 - - |
