STANDING, Clerk, TOWNSHIP OF NORTH YORK min Health is our most valuable possession Dr. Cameron pointed out and one important precauâ€" tion is to have regular tubercuâ€" lin tests. This test shows whethâ€" er you have TB germs. A harmâ€" less substance called tuberculin is injected into the skin by a doctor or nurse. The skin where the test has been made is exâ€" amined a few days later, and the nature of the temporary mark which appears will tell one of two things: (1) if the test is negâ€" ative â€" your body has no TB germs, or (2) if the test is posiâ€" tive â€" this does not mean that you have TB but only that TB germs are in your body. The healthy _ body usually _ keeps these germs from doing damage, but the germs remain as a threat for years after. For this reason positive reactors should have regular chest Xâ€"rays to be sure that damage to the lungs is not occuring. The largeâ€"scale use of the tuberculin test is practical, and the Association now offers you this additional safeguard. You are invited to attend a moâ€" bile clinic in your own neighâ€" bourhood where you and your family ( all ages ) may have this free test. Positive tuberculin reâ€" actors normally remain positive for life and need not repeat the test, A second mobile clinie will later interpret your tuberculin test, and if it is positive, offer you a free chest Xâ€"ray. Also, people over 40 years of age, evâ€" en with negative tuberculin tests, will â€"be offered chest Xâ€" rays because this age group are more prone to cancer of the lung and other chest diseases. If you are unable to attend for the tubâ€" erculin test, but are able to atâ€" tend for the chest Xâ€"ray, please do so because the Xâ€"ray alone is a great protection. . However, The announcement was made by Dr. W. K. Cameron, M.O.H. who expressed the hope that many residents of Weston would take advantage of this special opportunity. The units will be located at Weston Collegiate and Vocational Schdol on William Street and will be in operation from 2:00 p.m. to 4.30 p.m. and from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. All persons in Weston will be given the opportunity of safeâ€" guarding their health by having a free TB test when a communâ€" ity tuberculin test and chest Xâ€" ray survey begings soon. Announâ€" ced last night, the survey will be promoted by the Weston Board of Health and conducted by the National Sanitarium Association. The Weston survey is part of the war on tuberculosis begun in 1945 by the National Sanitarâ€" ium Association to find the disâ€" ease in its early stages.
