"INFANTILE PARALYSIS"
(POLI03IYELITIti)
The Department of Health has a sufficient supply of Convalescent Serum for present
demands. This serum is obtained from persons who have previously suffered from au
attack of "infantile paralysis".
In anticipation of further requirements the Department now requests
that persons who are willing to provide blood for this purpose (donors)
register with the medical officer of health in their district.
The Department remunerates donors on the basis of Ten Dollars for ]00 cubic
centimeters; the usual amount withdrawn from one donor is 200 -cubic centimeters.
This can be readily obtained without discomfort or ill effects to the donor.
Children under fourteen years of age are not eligible. Persons who have suffered
an attack of the disease during the present year are also not eligible. Those persons
fourteen years of age and over who have suffered an attack within the past twenty-five
years and who show some definite evidence of resulting paralysis, are requested to
provide the medical officer of health with their name and address.
Those who have already acted as donors need not register again.
When a clinic is to be held, donors will be notified through their medical officer
of health.

That is a statement of opinten by

the physical cuiturist declared.
"The human body, like mune

"Five feet nine Is the ideal height
