The regular tuberculosis chest clinic under the direction of the Tuberculosis Institute of Chicago and Cook county will hold its monthly meeting at the village hall in South Holland on the third Friday of the month, March 20, from 12:30 noon to 2 p. m. People from the communities of ISouth Holland, Phoenix, Dolton and Riverdale are eligible to attend. Tuberculosis cases, people who have been in close contact with people, or anyone who has had a positive skin test are asked to come in for their regular semi-annual check up at these clinics.

Dr. J. B. Novak, the clinician, is in charge. Because tuberculosis is a contagious disease and is given from one person to another, anyone who had ever lived with a tuberculosis patient and had therefore become exposed to the disease should have a semi-annual check up regularly either by their own physician or by this clinic.

People from the ages of 6 to 45 are the most susceptible. Everyone owes himself a clean bill of health and this can only be secured by a regular check up. If you put it off you may miss the best chance to keep well. We must try to ward off tuberculosis instead of permitting its development. Mrs.
