a result not more thah one in five persons.; |
suffering from the disease was discovered’'
until it had processed to serious stages.

exist. Found in its'early stage, and or or-,
orly treated at once, oithor in the home or
in a santorium, tuberculosis can bo cured!
and the possibilities of passing it to <
others overcome.
More persons in Alaska die from tubercu
lisis than from all other communicable di
seases combined. This is largely because
an infected person can go on for some time
not at all avaro that he has the diseaso. S
Any one of us can be attacked by this dis - i
ease at any time. The old belief that thosi. i
ovor 30 are no longor susceptible is on- f
tiroly without foundation. Helping in the
task of destroying this enemy of man and of
Alaska is a duty that belongs to us all. t
The surest way of doing so is by having an. •
X-ray.

ITS '"ATTRI"ELLON “’ll IS
A truckload of watemellons in town Uucs- |
day caused a "Teat deal of excitemont. The
trucker brought these noli.one over the high- |
ay from Arizona and sold thorn for 02.00 oa,
^he average weight was about 20#. Several
families became quite woll stocked r.-hon the
rife bought one or maybe to and the hus
band then came along and bought another. i|
Every man has two educations- that which is >
given to him and the other, that which he
gives to himself. Of two two kinds, the
latter is by far the most valuable.' Indeed )
all that is most worthy in a man, ho must
v;ork out and conciuer for himself. It is
that that constitutes our roal and best
nourishment. ’That wo arc merely taught
seldom nourishes the mind like that which
we teach ourselves.—Richter.
