TO CONDUCT FREE
CLINIC WEDNESDAY
tuberculosis Specialist and County
Nurse to Give Free Diagnosis
in High School

Through the efforts of the county
nurse. Miss Weber, the State Tuber-
culosis Association has arranged for
a clinic in Kennewick June Ia in the
forenoon only, This will be conducted
bv a chest specialist assisted by Miss
Weber and will be held in the Ken
newick high school. This clinic is for
examination for chest diseases and will
go no further than to make diagno-
sis. There will be no charges.
tuberculosis is no longer classed
among the non-curable diseases, but
the earlier the diagnosis the better
the chances of cure. No other dis
eases causes more deaths or greater
montary loss at the present time. In
the u. S. the deaths from tuberculosis
average over 100000 a year. One
tenth of all persons who die in
the u. S. are victims of tuberculosis,
while one-fourth of the deaths between
the ages of Is and 45 are caused by
it. Yet, as has been stated, it is cur
able and preventable. Every COM
munity may help to prevent this dis
ease by educating its citizens to re-
alize the Importance of health; thru
establishing clinics where physical ex-
aminations may be held and thus de-
tect the presence of tuberculosis in
its early stages; thru tuberculosis
nurses who teach health in the home;
thru establishing sanatoria and hos
pitfalls where the disease may be best
treated; and thru open air schools for
mal-nourished children who are most
susceptible to the germs thru such
media as these will the health of the
community be benefited.
For the sake of the health of the
community the Anti-Tuberculosis
League urges anyone who has any
suspicion of infection in the chest to
avail themselves of this opportunity
for free medical exam nation from a
specialist.
