 VACCINE TREATMENT
Cleanliness is Best Prevention, But
 Who Can Tell?


 against typhoid fever. But as this is almost impossible to determine unless you are certain that your milk dealer, l storekeeper and cook are clean in l handling your food, the health board in it's monthly bulletin, issued today, | urges the wisdom of typhoid vacci- nation.

If 1t is | important that the soldiers be vacci- mated against such diseases why does ] not the same course of reasoning ap- ply to the ordinary citizen There fore be vaccinated against both dis eases

We cannot al- 1 ways be certain that there are not 1 typhoid fever germs in our food and drinks, but there is a certain way to escape the disease even though the food is contaminated and that is by being vaccinated against typhoid fe- yer. The natural prevention against ty- phoid is CLEANLINESS. But are you sure of the cleanliness of your milk dealer, your store keeper and your cook If you are not sure then be vaccinated against typhoid. Are you clean in your own method of handling food?
