NOTICE
IMMUNIZATION AND VACCINATION
%
The nttitudo and cooperation
of nearly every Colonist has been
most commendable in the past in
aiding us when necessary to vac
cinate or immunize against disease.
We still have considerable work to
do along those linos and ask for
continued help.
Because very few Colonists have
been immunized against Typhoid Fe
ver wo are planning to designate
several homes as centers for this
work, and feel that the individ
t uals owning these places will not
object to the use of their homes
for this purpose.
All children over five years of
age, and all adults, who have not
had their immunization in the past
seven years need it now.
