MORGANTOWN, w. Va. June 80
When 400 boys, girls, county agents
and demonstration agents, including
number from Barbour county
were vaccinated in order that they
might attend the Prize Winners
Course for the leaders of the Boys
and Girls Agricultural Clubs of West
Virginia at the University, Morgan
town, new record for public health
observance in this state was estab-
lished.
AS this course has been postponed
on account of smallpox from the
week of June Ola until last week, the
leaders of the state agricultural club
work feared that many young folks
would not be vaccinated, even though
instructions had been issued that nc
one could attend the course unless
that had first been rendered immune
from smallpox by vaccination. Yet
there were many young people here
as had originally been expected.
Those present from Barbour coun.
ty were as follows:
