Diphtheria Can Be Prevented Local Lions Club Makes Available Toxin-Anti¬ toxin to Children Pageant Presented Diphtheria, the mast deadly of all diseases of childhood, can now be prevented as surely as vaccination prevents smallpox and by a much less unpleasant method. This meth¬ od consists In Injecting In the arm of a child a serum called toxin anti¬ toxin. Three doses at Intervals of a w"eek are necessary to establi.sh Im¬ munity. This .serum stimulates the blood to build up a permanent re¬ sistance to the di-seas"^. No scab or dangerous reaction r suits. ,", This toxin-antitoxin is availabr? to the children of Nazareth either through their family physician or through a clinic to l» held In the public schools on throe successive Wednesdays beginning January 4th. The Lions Club has arranged to procure enough serum from the Penn.sylvania Department of Health to Immunize all 'children from in¬ fancy to twelve years of age W"hase parents give w"rltten consent on the cards provided for that purpose. These cards have been distributed to the school children, and parents of children of pre-school age may se¬ cure them from Prof. F. A. Marcks. Since diphtheria Is most dangerous to children three to six years old, parents of such children are especi¬ ally urged to enroll them for the Im¬ munization. The school physician. Dr. J.

Diphtheria Can Be Prevented
Local Lions Club Makes Available Toxin-Anti¬ toxin to Children
Pageant
Presented
Diphtheria, the mast deadly of all diseases of childhood, can now be prevented as surely as vaccination prevents smallpox and by a much less unpleasant method. This meth¬ od consists In Injecting In the arm of a child a serum called toxin anti¬ toxin. Three doses at Intervals of a w"eek are necessary to establi.sh Im¬ munity. This .serum stimulates the blood to build up a permanent re¬ sistance to the di-seas"^. No scab or dangerous reaction r suits. ,",
This toxin-antitoxin is availabr? to the children of Nazareth either through their family physician or through a clinic to l» held In the public schools on throe successive Wednesdays beginning January 4th. The Lions Club has arranged to procure enough serum from the Penn.sylvania Department of Health to Immunize all 'children from in¬ fancy to twelve years of age W"hase parents give w"rltten consent on the cards provided for that purpose. These cards have been distributed to the school children, and parents of children of pre-school age may se¬ cure them from Prof. F. A. Marcks. Since diphtheria Is most dangerous to children three to six years old, parents of such children are especi¬ ally urged to enroll them for the Im¬ munization.
