ture has been sent to county health
officers and other officials in the state
urging them to have Medical Exam
ination Day which is Wednesday
December 6, observed by the people
in their vicinity. A recent circular
prepared by the board contained the
following:
IF you have an automobile, bicycle
plough. or any other machine. you
look over It once in a while to see
whether there are any parts that are
wearing out or needing repair. II
YOU have a fine horse, pig, or COW, you

that the physically perfect man Is
