HOW JENNER HIT
ON VACCINATION

II am not afraid Of smallpox. l will
never have the disease. because l
have had cowpox." These words OF
q flshn,onger, overheard by Edward
Jenner, furnished the motive for re-
search and experiment which led to
the introduction of vaccination, and
they were recalled at q meeting OF
medical men on Jan. 26, the ninetieth
anniversary OF the death Of Jenner.
The speaker referred to the remarks
recently made In the Austrian parlia-
ment by q member who advocated the
abrogation Of the laws pertaining TO
vaccination, In the course of which It
was said that the practice results In
poisoning children and In doing in
estimable injury to the human fam
fly" In answer to this the Jenner
eulogist said: From all the stats
tics I select this record OF vindication:
In the Franco-German war the French
MISUNDERSTANDING lost 23,489 Of
icers and men by smallpox: In the
German army-vaccinated - there
were 281 deaths from the same
cause"
