These are scenes we know and like, be- cause they're part of our lives ... because they spell happiness ... contentment. But we know that these things don't "just happen." They have to be worked for, lived for. Protected, too, because of ever-present dangers which may spoil them. Venereal Disease is a spoiler. In a cold, relentless way it can kill infants, rob the home of its breadwinner, cripple, destroy. These arc not mere possibilities. THEY HAPPEN ... RIGHT HERE IN CANADA! But, these things should never happen. They can be prevented. Young men and women can safeguard their future happiness together by making sure before marriage that V.D. will not blight their plans. A medical examination, including a blood rest for syphilis, is a prosection no couple can afford to pass up. The expectant mother, too, may know for sure that her baby will be all she dreamed of. Syphilis in the expectant mother rarely shows outward signs, and it is no respecter of persons. An early check-up by her doctor, including a blood test, is a most essential, yet simple, first step in protecting her baby's health. Nor must the breadwinner neglect his part. The security of the home depends upon his ability to work regularly and efficiently. Unsuspected syphilis, striking in middle life, may make the head of the home unable to provide for his family. Itis wise to KNOW FOR SURE in time. Industrial medical exam- inacions should include a routine confidential blood test. A blood test should not be looked upon as something unusual. It should be regarded for what it is . . a normal safeguard of health, security and happiness.
