“A great deal of harm may be done by good-natured but unskilled attention to a victim immediately after an accident in the street,” said an expert to an Auckland “Star” reporter. “Many a time you will see an injured man moved by some of the spectators when he should be left alone. Unless a person has knowledge of first aid he should not attempt to do anything in the way of moving anyone. While no harm may be done, it is quite possible, on the other hand, that irreparable harm • may be done to some limb or internal organ. The best and kindest thing to do is to get medical aid or an ambulance on the scene as soon as possible.” '
