The chest X-ray units, so helpful In checking the spread of the dread disease and catching It In Its first stages, cost 1131 per day to operate While the X-rays are made free A charge to encourage everyone to have them made, the public health association must foot the bills. Money for this purpose Is obtained through the sale of Christmas seals each year. Mrs. De Cew explains. It Is to the advantage of every one to know that they themselves, their neighbors and fellow workers are free of tuberculosis, and that those that have It are receiving the proper treatment, according to the secretary. It Is to everyone's ad vantage to build up the health of the community and to wipe out TB entirely. The first step In this cam paign Is having chest X-rays taken. Due to limited funds some com murines In Klamath county were passed by when the X-ray units made their annual trip In 11147. It Is hoped that In 1048 every community may be visited, but this cannot be accomplished unless the drive quota Is attained, said Mrs. De Cew. The drive will be wound up Feb ruary 15, and funds accrued by that time will determine the extent of the survey to be made this year. Meyers To Quit Army Flying Job WAHHINOTON, Jan. 6 lIV-Pres.
