Mouth-to-Mouth Method
1. Place the person who has stopped breathing on his back.

2. Clean the mouth and throat completely to insure an open airway to the lungs.

3. Tilt the head back so that the chin points upward and lift his lower jaw from beneath and behind so that it juts out.

4. Start artificial respiration immediately. The most important life-saving action is to get air into the person's lungs either through his mouth or his nose. Open your mouth wide and place it tightly over the person's mouth. Pinch his nose shut. Or you may close the victim's mouth and place your mouth over his nose. With an infant or small child. — Place your mouth over both his nose and mouth, making an airproof seal.

5. Blow into the mouth or nose, continuing to hold the unconscious person's lower jaw, so that it juts out to keep the air passage open.

6. Remove your mouth from the patient's mouth. Turn your head to the side and listen for the return of out­flowing air coming from the patient's lungs. If you hear it, you will know that an exchange of air has occurred.

7. You can then continue your breathing for the patient. Blow vigorously into his mouth or nose 12 times a mi­nute for an adult and about 20 times a minute for an infant.

8. If you are not getting an exchange of air, turn the per­son on his side and strike him several times between the shoulder blades. This will help to dislodge any obstruction in the air passages.

9. Normal breathing may start anytime. If it does not, ^you should continue the artificial respiration until you are positive life is gone.


Back Pressure-Arm Lift Method:
1. Position of the subject. — Place the subject in the face-down, prone position. Bend his elbow and place the hands one upon the other. Turn his face to one side, placing his cheek upon his hand.

2. Position of the operator — Kneel on either the right or the left knee at the head of the subject facing him. Place the knee at the side of the subject's head close to the forearm. If it is more comfortable, kneel on both knees, one on either side of the subject's head. Place your hands upon the flat of the subject's back in such a way that the wrists lie just below a line run­ning between the armpits. With the tips of his thumbs just touching, spread fingers downward and outward.

3. Compression Phase — Rock forward until the arms approximately vertical and allow the weight "of the up­per part of your body to exert slow, steady, even pres­sure downward upon the hands. This forces air out of the lungs. Your elbow should be kept straight and the pressure exerted almost directly downward on the back.

4. Position for Expansion Phase — Release the pressure, avoiding a final thrust, commence to rock slowly, back­ward. Place your hand upon the subject's arm just above his elbow.

5. Expansion Phase — Draw his arms upward and toward you. Apply just enough lift to feel resistance and ten­sion at the subject's shoulders. Do not bend your elbow, and as you rock backward, the subject's arms will be drawn towards you. Then drop the arms to the ground. This completes the full cycles. The arm lift expands the chest by pulling on the chest muscles, arching the back and relieving the weight on the chest.

7 Tips on how to grow old and not mind it

1. Continue to widen your interests. Not all of us can
go to a foreign country but, long before old age, everyone can begin to look forward to learning new things, to pursuing pastimes and developing skills. You can expose yourself to new interests in many ways, such as browsing through library shelves, attending lectures, joining in civic or welfare activities. Inquiry into things that are new to you quickens the mind and heart.

2. Be eager to continue your life. Aging is a process in which most people do more things for the last time, and fewer for the first time. Reverse that and you have an antidote for growing old.

3. Be affectionate. Love is one of the most powerful stimulants to a longer, happier life. Human warmth is, of course, not limited to romantic love; devotion to your fellow man serves equally well. The faculty of being genuinely concerned about others enriches anyone's life. The earlier one acquires it, the better fortified he will be for his later years.

4. Don't let emotions rule you. Giving in to anger is one of our unhealthiest habits. Avoid heated arguments and strong emotional conflicts.

5. Don't worry. Worry is just a bad emotional habit; like any habit, it can be broken if you make sufficient effort.

6. Make friends easily. As you grow older you must accustom yourself to the loss of lifelong friends and be prepared to make others. To do so, you must have something to offer. You don't need money; offer whatever is pleasant and useful in you.

7. Have religious faith. Religious counselors agree that the real comfort of faith comes but faintly to elderly persons who have previously neglected it. How much richer life is for those whose faith helps them constantly during the stresses and trials of everyday living.

1. Do a better job than is expected of you. One and all, the experts agree that this is the prime essential to ad­vancement. In other words, give more and you'll get more.

2. Make sure you do the job your boss wants done. As the personnel manager of one large firm says: "You can do the best job in the world, but if it's not the one your boss wants, he will find it upsetting."

3. Get along with your fellow workers and others with whom you come in contact. This is very important. Many times people work against themselves in terms of their personality — and, of course, they seldom realize that they're doing it.

4. Be sure your boss knows what you're accomplishing. Often when a fellow isn't appreciated, it's simply a mat­ter of lack of communication.

5. Be able to make decisions. This, according to the pres­ident of a job consultant firm, is a must. "You'd be surprised what a rare trait this is," he says. "Most peo­ple do just what they're told and pass all the decisions on to the next fellow."

6. Look for responsibilities beyond your present assign­ment. The manager of an executive recruiting firm strongly recommends this to the young person on the" way up. "A young tiger in the accounting department might say to her chief, "If you need any help in the credit union plan, just let me know." In from five to seven years, this expert predicts, "she'll be head of the plan."\

7. Study at night and keep well-informed. "It's also wise," adds another personnel officer, "to get involved in the community you live in. I don't mean just join­ing things, but really contributing your talents to the library, the hospital, and any good fund-raising project that comes along."

This man's own superior says, "Someday, somebody will say to you, "Joe, what are they paying you in your company? Well, why don't you come with us? We can do better than that for you."
