R&HnOnD CLINICS
WELL PATR0MzED

On October 18th. another oppor-

Richmond for free chest examina-
tinn.
r. In Interesting to compare reports
from various clinics. Last week.
forty-thrce people were examined
and only fourteen found infected In
any way OF, these only two were
open cases
Compare this with July, when at
ohS clinic twenty people were exam1n-
ed I'LL had had influence, eleven cases
were found Or tho month before that
when forty-seven people who had had
infltenza and thirty-one were infect
ed with tuberculosis. That shows
one' Of the fearful dangers VI infiu-
enza, lowering the resistance OF tho
body naring up OF old LESSONS.
TT is known now that man with
Tuberculosis may live in the house
with anyone II he is careful he
doesn't spread the disease. Tubercu-
iosfs is only contracted from the spu-
tum coughed by a person who has
tuberculosis.
Cover the mouth and nose when
you. cough and sneeze." II every one
observe that rule we could wipe out
tuberculosis. We wouldn't have re-
currance of influenza. riphtherla,
nfe4Sles and many other diseases
could be controlled, but because peo-
pie don't do this, don realize this.
we must still teach and preach. Most
people who have tuberculosis are in
fected when th2y are children.
Haven't you often seen an old woman
with a chronic cough. She doesn't think
she has tuberculosis. she loves her
children. her grandchildren, so she
kisses them. She coughs when she
pleases. she doesn't know The older
woman has a certain resistance she
may never break down, but she in =
fec4s others. She don't know, no one
told, her to be careful, she is living
now hut four children and two grand
children have died with tuberculosis.

TUBERCULOSIS
SOLDIERS CARE
CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH SOL
DlERS SUFFERING FROM
WHITE PLAGUE ARE Ell.
lGlBLE FOR TRAIN
ING

Washington, Sept. 22.-Discharged
soldiers suffering with tuberculosis
are placed in training by the Federal
Board for Vocational Education under
the same conditions that men with
other handicaps are; some with sup
port during the training. other with
out support, and a few while they
are still in the army hospitals. The
establishment of the medical status
of the tuberculosis soldier is a con
sideration in his eligibility for train
ing. The medical officer must PRO
nounce his case apparently curpJ ar
rested, or apparently so. before he
is recommended for training. QHies-
cent cases of pulmonary tuberculosis,
having had negative sputum for ii pc
riod of at least two months, must be
specially recommended by the dis
trict medicai officer and during the
course must remain under expert
medical supervision.
