There have been no deaths on the
Umatilla reservation by reason of the
prevalence of diphtheria, although 10
cases are under quarantine. Eight of
the cases are at the Catholic school,
and two are in the home of Narcisse
Bushman.
Yesterday Dr. T. NJ. Henderson.
the government physician, immunized
- girls at the Catholic school, with
anti-toxic serum. The government
sent $4,000 units of anti-toxine to be
used, but DR.. Henderson was obliged
to secure 10000 units more from La
Grande.
The idea is generally prevalent. ="
said DIR. Henderson. "that the injec-
ton of anti-toxie serum into the hu-
man is dangerous This is mis-
take. The anti-toxine is drawn
from the blood of horses who are in
a healthy condition. and there is no
danger whatever attached to placing
the serum in a child's system. The
strength of the anti-toxine is deter
mined by the amount of the toxine
required to kill a guinea pig. 1t is
then graduated and placed in amounts
of 1000 units each into Theoretically
sealed glass syringes- One thousand
units is considered sufficient to i'm
