“Your children Reserve a
good mother and father. Teach
them about God and give them
spiritual values. Teach them to
work and to use their mind. Do
these things and you will have
happy families, good homes
and great leaders.”
Howard Rainer once again
visited Warm Springs with his
in sp ira tio n a l m essage on
creating a good self-image in
the minds of children. Rainer,
an Indian consultant from
Brigham Young University in
Utah, spoke briefly to 50 adults
and children at the Warm
Springs Elementary School
gymnasium on the evening of

Having a positive result on a
test does not mean a person has
an active case of tuberculosis,
according to health educator
Lee Loomis. A person with a
positive reading may have ben
exposed to active tuberculosis
only. It becomes the clinic’s
concern as to where the
exposure came from at that
point.
“Ideally we should be able
to test kids and pull no

Periodically members of the
Indian Health Service visit the
various program s around
Warm S rings to administer
PPD tests, also known as the
tuberculin skin test. This is
i m p o r t a n t in k e e p in g
tuberculosis under control.
A small amount of Purified
Protein Derivative is injected
just under the skin in a little
bubble. After 36 to 72 hours the
injection is read. If it is positive
that person has at some been
exposed to the tuberculin
organism.
TO AAY FATHER:
— Who lies drunk and unaware,
— Who would be better oft dead,
than in this condition.
— Who brings fear and shame
— Who causes heartaches and gives
beatings
— Who brought emptiness to our
home, pockets and stomachs
Oath of a Small Child:
I promise: never to drink
to be a hard worker
love my family
share all things
— To the man who would sell any­
thing for “ one more drink"
— To the battle you are losing
— To the man who is needed as he
once was
Because of close surveillence
over the last 20 years,
tuberculosis is no longer a
m a jo r h e a lth p r o b le m .
However, the longer a person
lives the greater are the chances
of being exposed to tuberculo­
sis. This does not mean again
that it is active. The PPD test
measures a body’s response to
the germ and keeps the disease
in check. It's just a precaution.
