X-Rays For All This Week "THE Jackson County Public Health association has earned the gratitude of the people of this com munity in bringing a mobile X-ray unit here this wee k to ferret out the stealthy and deadly tubercle bacillus, high on the list of public enemies. And the best way to express this gratitude is to ex tend full and wholehearted support to this far-sighted, far-reaching health program. a e a THE mobile unit can take as many as 160 35mm X- ray pictures in a single hour, and these tiny pic tures reveal the presence of lurking tubercle bacillus in the early, cureable stages of tuberculosis, often be fore outward symptoms appear. Those whose films show positive reaction (statistics clearly show that unknown earners are right here and in every com munity) will be personally notified by the county public health officer. Results of the simple test are entirely confidential. To those who might unknow ingly have the disease we offer the encouragement that it can be cured if discovered in its early stages. The test is brief, easy, free. TUBERCULOSIS is "catching", not inherited. It is nt'atranf ahlfl krr iirli?rVi a r. 11 n fa "fni fViia anafirafi's campaign throughout Oregon. Deaths which it causes have steadily declined as public enlightenment has increased in recent years. In sending mobile A-ray units forth, the public health services are bringing up the heavy artillery and tanks in a determined attack upon a disease suffered by a halt-million Americans. a a a a a THE mobile X-ray unit opens its Jackson county 1 campaign at Gold Hill Tuesday, November 27, moving on to Central Fomt Wednesday and to Med ford Thursday where it remains until December 4. On December 5 and 6 it will cover the Ashland area. Those who find it impossible to be X-rayed during the day may visit the unit Friday evening. As the darker time for tuberculosis lies between 30 and 59 years of age, emphasis will be placed upon men and women in that age group. THE mobile X-ray program takes its place along with six other major steps in the long and gallant crusade against "consumption". First was Leeuwen- hoek and the microscope, then Jfasteur who told men that microbes caused disease. Robert Koch was the first to isolate the tuberculosis eerm. Edward J ru deau, in his little red cottage in New York state, intro duced the first tuberculosis sanitorium and then William Roentgen's X-ray enabled doctors to see the very first signs of the disease. m SINCE 1907, the little Chjistmas Seal that insures Viooitr.
