It is, however, possible to contract diphtheria without being near a diseased person. Here there is usually contact with a "carrier" a person who has had diphtheria or who has been exposed to it and now carries the germ in his nose or throat without suffering from the disease. One person in every hundred is said to be a carrier. Diphtheria forms a grayish white or yellow membrane in the nose and throat. This literally chokes the victim to death.

There are two kinds of immunity to the disease natural and acquired. Most new born babies have a natural protection against diphtheria but it is lost by the age of 6 months. Children are most likely to catch diphtheria between the ages of 6 months and 6 years, and two-thirds of the deaths from diphtheria occur in this age group. The only reliable, safe and sane way of protecting children is through innoculation. The toxoid builds in the body a protective agent which counteracts attacks of the diphtheria germ.

It becomes effective within six months and gives protection, for life. Health authorities advise this immunity should be checked six months after the innoculation of toxoid to make certain that it exists. Rosenthal P. T. A.

Three firemen risked their lives in a vain effort to save a mongrel from a ledge on a rocky bluff nearly 150 feet above a river-front street. The firemen, with ropes tied around their waists, were lowered 50 feet to the ledge. A large crowd watched. The dog growled and snapped at his rescuers. It leaped away from them and tumbled 130 feet to a railroad track.

A policeman shot the injured animal. Motorists reported the dog had lain on the ledge since yesterday. Wednesday shots of diphtheria toxoid will be given free to chi! dren of pre-school age and those already in school. This is a very dreaded disease ana the P. T.
