ldAaI Health Certificate

A very comprehensive form Of
health certificate is proposed for use
in Germany, says Popular Mechanics
Magazine. If adopted, it would form
d record of the health of each indi-
vidual at any stage of life, and ct
death would furnish d complete his
tory of. that individuals whole phys
ical life. This record would constitute
a single health certificate, in which
would be combined the certificate Of
birth, Of vaccination, the health re-
ports of school medical examiners,
and in later life the reports Of health
insurance societies, In which all Ger
mans in industrial life are registered.
The result would be of value, during
the life of the individual, in furnish
ing any attending physician with a
complete family history; and after
death, these certificates would be col
elected in. a central bureau, where they
would furnish material for the study
of hereditY.
