Within twenty-five years there has come n
great change. After much study and experiment,
diphtheria a~ntitoxn was found to be a success In
the control of this disease. In New York City,
during this period of time, the deaths have been
reduced by eighty per cent and the number of
cases has been decreased by thirty per cent

developed.
Within the last two years forty-eight special
preventive clinics have been provided in the city
by the Health Department. Competent child
