Tuberculosis Campaign
Tuberculosis can be eradicated entirely from the. Township
if the early cases are detected. One way of doing this is by
tuberculin tests which can now be done without needle by a simple
piece of medicated adhesive applied to chest by the school nurse.
This will be done commencing next Monday, May 20th. All
reactors will be X-rayed free of charge.
Parents are urged to plan to have all children at school during
the 'week of May 20. Also any child of pre-school age can be tested
free of charge if brought to a school.
