Tox­ oid is universally believed to be in­ nocuous even to the youngest child. Its powerful effect in the control of diphtheria has been proven over and over again. Dr. Jules Renault of Paris says that toxoid is successful in the prevention of diphtheria in 96 to 98 per cent, of cases. Diphtheria is disappearing from France. It has practically disappear- .....rnwy .i iin ....................................... .h .. 1 m h nmw.wwrun.. 1111 1 Round Trip Travel Bargains From WINGHAM MAY 5 - 6 To CHICAGO $12.50 | ed from the French army because ev­ ery soldier is compelled to be toxoid- ed. It is rapidly disappearing from the cities and country districts be­ cause every child on entering school must present a certificate of immun­ ity. Fifty years ago there were 1500 deaths a year from diphtheria in Paris where as in 1937 there were but 87 deaths, the mortality having dropped from eighty to less than three per hundred thousand of population. Tox- oiding against diphtheria is compul­ sory not only in France but also in Hungary, Rumania, Poland and in the city of Geneva, Switzerland. Because of the use of toxoid on this side of the Atlantic, Canada and the United States are eliminating diph­ theria. Fourteen of the smaller Can­ adian cities where toxoid has been in use, have been free of diphtheria deaths for periods of 5 to 10 years. Other and larger cities have been re­ markably free for long periods. If, year by year, the rising genera­ tion of children are protected by the use of toxoid, diphtheria as a major problem will soon disappear from our midst.
