GE1HIIG THE TRUTH
(From State Board of Health)
"The opinions of most people are
largely based upon what they read
and hear. The person who tries to
avoid prejudice, to maintain what we
call an 'open mind' and to get at the
real facts often finds himself puzzled
and confused by conflicting opinions.
To illustrate an example. A mother
of a school child attended a meeting
in which a representative of the State
Health Department advises that all
children under the age of ten should
be given toxin-antitoxin t protect
Mgainst diphtheria. It is a simple
and safe procedure, and if all chil
dren could thus be protected, this
disease so often fatal to children
would be eradicated. A day or two
later she reads an article sent out by
an organization, the purpose of which
is to oppose vaccination,' the use of
antitoxin and everything which it
calls "compulsory medicine." Toxin
antitoxin, this article said in sub
stance, contains a powerful poison, its
use is dangerous and unnecessary, and
the health department are footing it
upon the unsuspecting public for the
benefit of the medical profession.
Here is a direct conflict of opin
ion, and this mother no doubt asks
the question "What shall I believe?"
She usually decides to accept the ad
vice of her doctor whom she knows
and in whom she has confidence. Her
child receives the toxin-antitoxin and
Service and the Small
Account
This bank is a service institution organized to meet finan
cial necessities of its depositors. The amount of its ser
vice to its dpeositors often depends on the bank balances
they maintain.
This bank must carefully protect the funds deposited
here by its depositors. Money can be loaned only when
we feel sure that it wilt be safe. When a depositor main
tains a reasonably large, steady balance, it is an indica
tion to us that he knows how to use money successfully.
It gives us a reason to believe that loans to him will be
safe. That is one reason why depositors who maintain
large balances get better service from fheir bank. They
are entitled to it.
And even more than that, a large balance provides
the depositor with sufficient funds to take care of emer
gencies and business opportunities that may arise.

"Shades of opinions may be sin
cerely entertained by honest and
truthful men," said Abraham Lincoln.
However when directly opposing views
are expressed one or the other must
be wrong. Considerable misinforma
tion is circulated by gossipy people
who express positive opinions on sub
jects they know little about. They
do little harm in a way, if their circle
of influence is limited. On the other
hand a group of prejudiced and often
misinformed people, thoroughly or
ganized with well paid publicity ag
ents whose job is to oppose by hook
or crook a scientifically established
health measure, can do a vast amount
of harm by misleading peeple.
We advise those who find them
selves confused by conflicting opin
ions on health matters not to jump
at conclusions. Inquire into the
source of the opinions and look for
the motive back of them. The physi
cians, including the health officers,
in any community are men of stand
ing with reputation to maintain. As
a class physicians are conservative.
There is more money for the most of
them in treating disease than in pre
venting it. When they advise a health
measure it is because they believe in
it. The sole purpose of the state
health department is to protect the
public health. To retani the public

When there is an apparent conflict
