I Notify County Health Department in Advence for Immunization Vaccine The following is the recommendation recommen-dation of the Public Health Service Advisory Committee on Immunization Immuniza-tion Practices, and is being offered as a service in Millard County for the first time this year. This service ser-vice has never been offered before to the citizens of Millard County, and it is hoped that everyone will take advantage of this service. Diphtheria has been on an accelerated accel-erated decline in the years since World War II, and is now a rare disease in many areas of the United States. However, localized outbreaks continue to appear, ac- companied by serious complications j and a case-fatality ratio often . greater than 10 percent. Although j most diphtheria is in children, cases . and deaths occur in all ages. Tetanus has declined in recent, years, but it still remains an im- portant Public Health problem which can only be eliminated thru universal active immunization. Im-i munization against .'etnaus is the one nearly perfect immunizattion available today. Tetanus Is easy I to prevent, and often impossible' to cure. All ages should be protected pro-tected against both Diphtheria and Tetanus. The Millard County Health De-! partment is planning a public clinic for the above immunizations early in April.

His appearance appear-ance and speech has caused a lot of stir throughout the state. Leftists view his appearance with pleasure. Rightists view his appearance appear-ance with alarm. Moderates view his appearance with tolerance. We . have heard that Rubin's speech left much to be desired. It has been described as treasonable and filled with terms of, what used to be called, filth. Nevertheless, we support the university uni-versity students in their quest for knowledge and the university administration ad-ministration for allowing students academic freedom. Freedoms of speech, press, religion and peaceful peace-ful assembly are very basic to American history and should not be denied to anyone, regardless of political beliefs. Rightists have proposed to prohibit pro-hibit such future speakers at the university on the grounds that a tax supported institution should not be used for such speeches. They work to maintain the status quo. They maintain that "right" is only "right" when it fits their definition. They do all this with much flag waving and question loyalties when agreement is not forthcoming. Leftists use all sorts of ways, and take to the streets and ros-trums.to ros-trums.to discredit the established order of things. They would destroy des-troy the very laws that give them freedom of taking to the streets and rostrums. In their hellbent rush to change thiings, they weaken weak-en and destroy many tested and proved traditions. They are long on retoric and short on patience. Moderates see merit in both left and right but are appalled at the extremes of both. They recognize that many problems in America's: past were solved by unquestioned support of law. But, they also Residents and guests should re frain from walking on the new lawn until the grass is firmly established. "Delta's main problem seems to be littering," Mrs. Gardner says. The youth of the city and surrounding sur-rounding area need to be educated to refrain from littering. We adults need to set the example.

' ; " Right Is a Lost Right recognize that all laws of the past do not fit today's society and changes are needed Moderates are more courageous than either rightists right-ists or leftists because they stand in the face of threats from both. Their apparent inaction is actually action in spite of charges to the contrary. They are finding it increasingly in-creasingly difficult, however, to maintain moderation. For their position is constantly being challenged chal-lenged and they are forced to defend de-fend a position of either rightists or leftists by the recriminations hurled by one extreme at the other or even at the stand of moderation. With their preachment of overthrow over-throw of the government and advocating ad-vocating violent changes in today's society, leftists are actually seeking seek-ing control. The reverse, much to their dismay, will be the fact. For in seeking control they will be controlled. con-trolled. And control will not come from moderates but rather from themselves or the right. But rightists are seeking control of individual thoughts and actions just as surely. Consider some of the recent bills brought before our legislative body, the U.S. Congress. In particular look at the "no-knock' provision of the drug control act. This provision will allow any police officer to enter any home for search of anything under the guise of searching for drugs. This is a step towards a police state if ever there was one. The sobering part of the push from the right for control is the fact that it has, at least, the tacit approval of the Nixon Administration. Sans filth, whose speech would be less acceptable to a moderate? Rubin's or one from Robert Welch of the John Birch Society? Who dare say that an eroded or lost right is any more eroded br lost if the erosion is espoused from the left or from the right? j A lost right is a lost right is a : lost right.
