had proven themselves patriots OF

violently opposed TO the constitu.

mo unknown and no untreated

is the slogan of the Free Chest Clinic
of the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis AS
ISOLATION, which goes into every part
Of Wisconsin seeking out early and
unsupported cases through its free ex-
aminations. These Clinics are sup
ported by the sale of Christmas Seals.
More than $4,000 examinations have
been made at over $40 clinics, and
more than 5000 cases of tuberculosis
have been found. Thousands of bodily
disorders other than tuberculosis have
been brought to light at these clinics.
1t is estimated that there are over
10000 active cases of tuberculosis IN
Wisconsin, many of which are not even
suspected by the victims themselves,
and to find as many of these cases as
possible In the early and most durable
stages and 10 urge prompt treatment
