All Quiet on the Western Front, opened gatewaysNew ideas were easilyspread!for new authors to experiment with their own styles and genres. 63. Medicine in the 1920sIn 1921, Insulin was first isolated and ready for human treatment by early 1922. In 1928, Alexander Fleming came across a mold by accident that eventually became Penicillin the worlds first antibiotic. In 1922, two American scientists discovered Vitamin E. In 1923, an immunization for Diphtheriawas invented. Within a year, a vaccineagainst TB would also exist. 64. Insulin Diabetes had been a deadly condition priorto the discovery and use of Insulin. Conducting a series of experiments withminimum equipment and ten dogs, Dr.Frederik Banting and Charles Best were ableto isolate Insulin produced by the pancreas. A chronic condition became manageable diabetes patients with only days to live couldsuddenly lead a nearly normal life. 65. Penicillin Returning from vacation, Alexander Flemingcame across a mold that was growing on an oldPetri dish. The mold seemed to have eliminatedsome of the Staphylococcus aureus that had beengrowing in the dish. This hope of an antibiotic would be taken up by Howard Florey and Ernest Chain, who eventually isolated the antibacterial element in a usable form. Penicillin was the worlds first antibiotic, having the ability to treat diseases such as diphtheria, gangrene, pneumonia, syphilis and tuberculosis as well as bacterial infections. 66. Impact on Society As of 2008, approximately 2.4 million Canadianslive with diabetes. Prior to the discovery of Insulin, diabetic childrenrarely lived for longer than a year after diagnosis,while adults lasted for a few years before death. Although not a cure, the use of Insulin was a medical breakthrough thathad a huge impact on Canadian society. Similarly, before antibiotics, a small cut or graze could become infectedand kill its owner. More serious conditions caused by bacteria such astuberculosis and pneumonia were even more deadly. Although it took over a decade for mass production to occur, Penicillineventually became available to humanity as a source of great relief. Considering its role in World War II and its overall effects in Canada,Penicillin was also a breakthrough that had a huge impact on Canadiansociety. 67. Royal Canadian Air Force. The Canadian Air Force wasestablished in 1920 as thesuccessor to the short lived twosquadron air force formed duringWWI At the beginning it was managedby the Air Board and focused oncivilian operations such asforestry and surveying. In 1923 the Air Board cameapart of the Department ofNational Defence and one yearlater was granted the title RoyalCanadian Air Force. 68. Royal Canadian Navy After WWI the Canadian Navy startedbuilding a fleet Although the Canadian Navy had itsown ships, its first warship specificallydesigned for the RCN wascommissioned in 1932. At the outbreak of WWII the RCN had11 combat vessels, 145 officers and1,674 men. 69. Canadian Army In 1920 the Canadian Militia wasreorganized in 1920 the pre-war regiments wereall renamed, several organizationalcorps were created mirroring corpsin the British Army, and new oneslike the Canadian Machine GunCorps or CMGC 70. N TIO V IAA 71. AVIATIONAfter World War 1 many pilots came backand used their skills to show off for people atfairs as well as charging small fees to takepeople for rides.Since WW1 quickened the growth ofairplanes, by the end of the war their weremuch more reliable aircraft. These could beused to transport cargo (mail), orpassengers. As their were advancement inaircraft daring men and women could go outto set new records for speed and distance.In 1927 the first airport was designated inDearborn Michigan. By 1929 there were afew hub ports, with comfortable waitingareas and terminals. 72. AVIATIONPlanes still had competition by themeans of zeppelins. Airships wereused at the same time as planesand also had a much greater loadcapacity. They became reliablemeans of flight that couldtransport many people andsupplies. The age of airshipsended in 1937 with theHindenburg disaster. 73. AVIATION Pilots in the 20s were treatedlike superstars. People werecaptivated by these flyingmachines and huge crowds wouldturn out to greet pilots after theirflight. Huge street parades wouldeven be held in their honor, andwhole cities would come out tocelebrate.The majority of all pilots in the20s came from the war and usedtheir training from the army to flycommercial planes. 74.
