Two Days To
Get A Free
Chest

Up to Tuesday afternoon 1906
East Clevelanders had had their
1850 free chest X-ray taken at the
Christmas Seal Mobile Unit in
their neighborhood. The number
added to the 100 X-rays already
taken in Shaw High School, brings
the city's figure up to a goodly
total. This will be still further aug
mented when the totals are in for
today, tomorrow and Saturday
when the unit will be parked at the
Superior-Euclid shopping center.
The hours there will be:
Thursday and Friday, 200 to
500 p. m.
Friday, $3.50 to p. m.
Mrs. L. C. Tefft, in charge of
this field service for communities
is pleased with the result, but
thinks it could be better. She COM
mented on the fact that little per-
suasion is necessary, the people
coming in on their own to have
their chests X-rayed. Members of
the PTA units are serving as aids.
"This is a long range program"
states Mrs. Tefft, who is an East
Clevelander. The public is learning
the Importance of a yearly X-ray
as the big weapon against tuber-
culosis, and as this understanding
widens, the every-year idea is
bound to show results in the de-
crease of not only tuberculosis, but
of other ailments which effect the
chest. In many cases heart condi-
tions are being revealed through
these X-rays.
One hundred East Clevelanders
registered for their free chest
X-ray in the Caledonia district,
their registration cards will find
their way into the East Cleveland
totals.
The unit was at the Shaw-Hay-
den district three days, and in the
Taylor-Coit district two days be-
fore setting up at the Superior
Euclid today.
"We know you had an X-ray
last year, but you should have one
every year" is the greeting one
PTAer uses as ,passersby stopped
for a look. The majority Of them
then stopped long enough for an
X-ray.
IT you are not one Of the $4,000,
get yours tomorrow. Take the fam
lily = its for everyone over Is
years of age. It's free.
