Added the Star-Times in a soberer vein: "Unneutral? Of course it is unneutral, in a world where neutrality has become Hitler's jest and Holland's grave. . . .

Against the quartz window the doctor fits a lamp, like a flashlight, which emanates ultraviolet rays. An automatic shutter turns the lamp off every few seconds to prevent over-irradiation. Length of irradiation varies from nine to 14 seconds, depending upon the severity of the infection. Once...
...inside a torn stocking, makes sewing easy. Of course the rod cannot be left inside, nor can it be removed. So Sidney Smith makes his rods of sugar in sizes to fit all types of blood vessels. Coated with a thin film of bland oil, the rod stiffens the vein or artery while a surgeon mends the break with overcast stitches. Clamps cut off the supply of blood during the stitching. Then the clamps are removed and in ten to 15 seconds, the warm blood melts the sugar and circulation proceeds normally...
