H. THE TIME
VACCINE VIRUS
Its Preparation Explained to Students
by DIR. j. ~. Hurry.

by DIR. j. ~. Hurry.
Before the p. G.. c. Hunt Society of the
Indiana Dental College DIR. j. n. Hurry
delivered an interesting lecture last night
on the manufacture and preparation of
vaccine virus. DIR. Hurty's talk was illus
trated by stereopticon views showing the
different stages of the making of the virus.
The subject matter of the lecture was
gathered by DR.. Hurry from a recent visit
10 one OF the largest vaccine laboratories
in the world located near Philadelphia. He
told the dental students of the extreme
care taken in the manufacture of virus,
and pointed out that cleanliness is the first
rule observed. The best virus, he said, is
secured from young calves absolutely free
from disease. After the animals AVE been
inoculated and the lymph taken from them
IT Is mixed with prepared glycerine and
put up with the utmost caution.
DIR. Hurry devoted a considerable por-
tion of his talk TO a general description of
smallpox in its different stages and to an
explanation of the value of vaccine virus
as a preventive Of the disease.
