the Infection which caused 04 chil

susceptible to the germs and became
111.
"The term 'human guinea pig Is
'really a mlsnomed," said Dr. George
A. Denlnon, director of the labora
tories. "Only monkeys and human
beings wero suitable for this particu

It does result in serious Illness," Dr.

"Not all people are susceptible to

Thank you very much for taking care of the minor adjust

given us excellent service.
