Recent Tuberculin Test Proves Most Valuable In this connection it is interestâ€" ing to note that the child of one parent who refused to allow her to have this test is now a patient in the Weston Sanatorium. difficult task when he started his campaign to have these children tested about two years ago. The strange antagonism of parents to new tests for disease in their chilâ€" dren was mainly responsible for the opposition he encountered. There was also the problem of the expense of the test itself, as well as of having the positive reactors xâ€"rayed afterwards. The results are very interesting and instructive. Of 749 vupils testâ€" ed there were 99 positive to the tubereulin reaction. On xâ€"raying these 99 it was discovered that two were actual cases of pulmonary case, otherâ€" an y or sanatoria taking the ctre. minimal case we expect will be reâ€" stored to health in about three months, and the advanced case in six to twelve months. There were two others whose xâ€"rays showed that they were susâ€" picious cases. By taking extra rest and precautions at home, these will be cured *without going to a hosâ€" pital. Of the remainder xâ€"raved, twelve films were picked out which were not quite normal. These pupils will be kept under observation and reâ€"xâ€"rayed in six months. In the meantime, they are instructed to h}:'e every possible care of themâ€" seives. a In brief the result of the test is this; An advanced case was picked out who would almost certainly, within the next few months, have infected a number of others, and he, in all probability, would have proceeded to an advanced stage of the disease before illness would have compelled him to see his family doctor.
