If you are the average reader you probably have a house with a mortgage, a family, a job and a car; you live just within your in come, pay your taxes (with pro test), own some life insurance and have some money in the bank. Surveys have shown such to be the condition of large numbers of persons in the United States, Dr. T. Earl Sullenger, head of the department of sociology at the University of Omaha pointed out. Doctor Sullenger also is a mem ber of the board of directors of the Nebraska Tuberculsis associa tion. But suppose, said Doctor Sul lenger, you are one of the 115 thousand persons, who, a year from today, will have acquired tuberculosis? You wouldn’t know it at first. Fortunately, although there are no early symptoms, tuberculosis can be discovered early by means of a chest X-ray. That is why the Nebraska Tu berculosis association and its af filiated county associations urge everyone to have a chest X-ray periodically. Tuberculosis can be cured, Dr. Sullenger said; but if the on set is slow, so is recovery, particularly if treatment has not been started in early stages. Early treatment is important not only to the individual but to society, Dr. Sullenger noted. Even in the early stages TB can be spread. Support of the chest X-ray pro gram is simple and easy, Dr. Sul lenger said. Just buy and use Christmas seals. — - I Odbert New Manager for Bell at Stuart— STUART—Richard D.
