No Illumination

The trained nurse mother had
not insisted on the daughter hav-
ing a typhoid immunization before
going on long journey where she
was exposed to all sorts Of water
and milk supplies.
Certainly there should have
been no family which one would
expect to have taken the proper
precautions more than this fam
lily, and yet the typhoid fever de-
veloped.
| think every child going to
school for the first time should be
immunized against typhoid fever
by the use of hypodermic vaccines.
1t is true that Public Health su-
pervision of the water and milk
supply has probably been the big
gest factor in reducing typhoid
fever almost to the vanishing
point, but we cannot depend en-
tirely on the water supply as is
illustrated in the case described
above.
Sometimes the Public Health
precautions are relaxed some
times a carrier gets living typhoid
bacilli into milk or food; some
times a picnic is held near nice
clear spring. The water from the
spring is sparkling clear in the
sunlight, and with absolutely no
odor, but in spite of this, it may
be loaded with typhoid bacilli.

watch the water and milk supply,
and we don't have to worry about
typhoid fever. Then in the midst OF
this comforting chain of thought,
something happens that starts me
all over again.
The thing that happened. thi,
year was a case Of typhoid fever
that developed in the person Of q
young girl, the daughter Of .
neighbor. Her mother, incident
ally, had been a trained nurse be-
fore she was married.
The young girl went to Mexico
and came back with a mysterious
fever, which the mother nursed on
her own for a while, and then
finally the family called in a doc
tor who pronounced the condition
typhoid fever.

Only Safe Method

The only safe method is that Of
individual immunization. The fact
that the United States Army i'm
munizes every enlisted man and
draftee should be sufficient indi-
cation of the proof of this state
ment.
Typhoid fever is a medieval dis
ease, and in the modern world it
has almost disappeared. In 1910,
the typhoid death rate in the
United States was 20 per 100000
population. OF late years it has
fallen to half of l per 100000 pop
ulation. This is a far greater
triumph to medical science than all
the reputed advance in cancer and
heart disease.
Revaccination should be done
about once every seven years. l
think it should be done on every
one before they enter college.
