Seal Sale
ill Short
The Klamath county 1947 seal sale
quota Is still 11 000 snort, accord
ing to the county public health as
sociation executive secretary, Mrs.
Thlrza De Cew.
Cards appealing to residents to as
sist In going over the top on this
drive to combat tuberculosis In this
county, are being mailed out this
week.
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.
