You do not know, but there are certain safeguards you can take against tuberculosis. First of all, you can take care I of your health generally. The per-I per-I son with good health is in the best position to resist tuberculosis if ! he comes in contact with it. To keep tabs on yourself, as we said earlier, you should have a complete com-plete physical examination, with chest X-ray, at least once a year. But there is more that you can do you can help make our community com-munity a healthier place in which to live, a place where it is less likely that you will pick up such germs as the tubercle bacillus. You can help support the program of the Utah County Tuberculosis and Health Association, a program which has been planned and is being carried out to protect your health. There is one definite thing you can do at this time of year to show you are behind the tuberculosis tubercu-losis association. ..You can buy Christmas Seals, which make possible pos-sible the work of your tuberculosis tubercu-losis association. Proceeds from the sale of Christmas Seals are the association's sole means of support. You are showing great foresight, you are decreasing the likelihood that the health of today to-day will give way to tuberculosis tomorrow, when you buy and use Christmas Seals. |
