We cannot estimate the price of • life lost or a human being wasted by disease so that h« can on looser support himself and contribute to the wealth and welfare ql the community. We can figure the low of wages, the coat of medical car*, of paying compensation, pensions, and welfare to patients' faiallira r t; The coat of one ease of tuberculosis Is estimated at between *14,000 and $18*000. This includes costs of medical cars, compensation, loss of wages, pensions, and relief payments to pstients' families. Tuberculosis is an insidious as well as an expensive enemy. It creeps up on Its victims without warning. There are no outward, visible signs during its early stage. But we are not powerless against tuberculosis. Among our many dependable weapons Is the x-ray. A chest x-rty can "see" tuberculosis in the early stage when It Is easiest and least costly to cure. Watauga county is at present engaged in a community-wide chest x-ray campaign to find every toknown ease of tuberculosis. The majority of cases will be found smong apparently healthy people before the disease has done serious damage. By finding them and getting them under treatment immediately we will help to cheek the spread ti TB. People who might otherwise have suffered long, crippling 111 r MM at great 111— tO IkMh Mhw and to th« rommunity can count upon taking up normal Uvea after treatment without taar al becoming a burden to soeiaty. We cannot achieve theae results without 100 per c*et cooperation Everyone over II yoars of an must have a chart May. It tafcea only a few minute* to gat it-ft la free. Only a few minutea of time •pent by every eltiaen to aave thousand*—la It ■ bargain? WHO NEEDS X-KATST if-, I Hie goal of the county-wide cheat x-ray program which opena here on June 14th ia the x-raying of every reaident 18 yean of age and over, abort and tall, thin and fat puny and powerful—yea, even you who aay "I never had • atek day in my life." Why x-ray the apparently healthy? Did you know that people can look and feel well and still have tuberculoaia? Did you know that tuberculoaia may have no outward lymptoma in its early stage? By the time the symptoms which we aH recognize appear—loas of weight, coughing, spitting bloodchances ara the disease ia in an advanced stage, difficult to cure. Did you know that any active case of TB can spread germs? Whatever the outcome of a person's chest x-ray, he has nothing to lose everything to gain. If his x-ray ia clear, be will know his lungs ara healthy. If tuberculosis is discovered, he knows he can take stepa toward checking the disease before his illness becomes mora aerioua. X-ray program officials report that the majority *t cum Mi| inch ■ project arc in an «arly stage A»d the earlier tuberculosis ia found, the eaaier it is to cure and the quicker the patient can return to a normal, useful lite.
