I Ouestionn aires Mailed To Parentsj Has your child had "baby shots" yet? Some 43,000 families In Eas tern North Carolina will be ask ed this question this week when the postman delivers an enve lope from the North Carolina State Board of Health, pan of an Intensive state-wide immu nization program, endorsed by the Medical Society of the State of North Carolina. The immu nization Activity Program has for some fifteen months been contacting parents of new ba bies by cards, letters, phone calls, or visits to urge them to start protective "shots" for their children by the age of three months. Unfortunately some families make a practice of postponing this protection until school age. This leaves children suscejxlble to serious diseases for the first five or six Years of their lives. Tnls month, die Program em barks on another phase of this campaign to edfeotufrue (hose not already completely immu nized to obtain this Important " protection as soon as possible. Lists of all children born In North Carolina since January 1, 1962 and prior to December 31, 1964 were prepared by the Vital Statistics Section of the State Board of Health, and were sent out to local health depart ments where records were checked to screen out the names of those known to have complet ed their series of Immuniza tions. For those names not found In health department files, cards were prepared _ which are being mailed this 1 week In 33 Eastern counties. Parents are asked to ans ** wc_tc three simple questions and return the card to the State Board of Health. The purpose of the card Is (1) to determine If possible how many children are pro tected, an (2) to call attention to the fact that this Important protection Is available and to encourage parents to take ad vantage of It without delay. The terrible side effects of so called "childhood diseases" can often leave their victims crippled, mentally retarded, or physically handicapped for the rest of their lives. Yet It Is possible now by means of se veral simple Immunizations not even available a few short years ago, to completely prevent the five major killers and cripp lers of little children. The list of diseases Includes Diphtheria, Tetanus, Whooping Cough, Polio, and Measles plus Smallpox which Is so rare now that we are Inclined to forget that only rigid enforcement of compulsory vaccination enabled us to keep this dreadful disease under control. It Is never era dlcted as long as It exists in the world ana It may be Im ported from other countries at any time. Up until two years ago, po lio left a hugh annual toll of dead and seriously disabled. Now It has been reduced to a decimal. Diphtheria which once accounted for clusters of tiny graves In every community ce metery Is now almost unheard of. Whooping cough Is especial ly dangerous for Infants under six months of age, because un like many other diseases, in fants are not born with any temporary natural Immunity. For this disease, especially, it Is extremely Important to begin protective "shots" at three months of age. A 1 d In the last three years sc- d lence has discovered a means of conquering another old enemy t of childhood, red measles. a Once considered unavoidable, I measles epidemics left behind a s trail of complications Including t pneumonia, encephalitis, hear- 1 lng loss, and permanent brain t damage. And because there was t no prevention and no treatment, 1 people were accustomed to < ' 'having the measles and setting it over with" as the only thing to do. I Now, a safe, sure vaccine Is 1 available which apparently I gives life-time Immunity a- i gainst this vicious disease. A 1 child may receive this Immu nization anytime after the age 3 of nine months, upon adoctor s i recommendation. It is parti- i cularly Important for parents of older children who came along I after this vaccine became avail ; able, who perhaps no longer make routine visits to their doctors, to know about It and to make every effort to obtain this protection before It Is too late. After a child has had mea sles there is no need to receive the vaccine, as a case of mea sles confers lifetime Immunity. Tetanus immunizations are Important for adults as well as children. To maintain adequate Immunity, Immunizations must be continued throughout life, but It Is of great Importance to begin this protection early. If < Injury occurs to a person who hais never before received te tanus toxoid, thetreatmentpre scrlbed may cause serious dis comfort to the patient. If, how ever, a person has received toxoid previously, a booster Is sufficient to prevent the di sease from occurring. And It Is of utmost lmportantce to prevent tetanus, as six out of ten persons who develop the Is ease die. Tetanus is a serious threat 0 newborn Infants if conditions it delivery are not aseptic, lowever, the Infant may have :ome protection from Its mo her if she was Immunized, rherefore. It Is Just as lmpor ant for mothers to maintain heir tetanus Immunizations as t Is for them to see that their dilldren receive them. All these considerations are jehlnd the simple card which he Health Department Is mail ing this week. If the child tamed on the card has been protected by Immunizations in lis doctor's office or at his Local health department, the card Is to be checked accord ingly and returned to the state Board of Health. If the answer Is "no,* parents are urged to Eve immediate attention to this iportant matter. Delay Is dan gerous. Every season brings Its special disease hazards and every year Is another twelve months of exposure for a child to disease which may kill, crip ple, or disable him for life. A few simple, almost painless Injections can Insure a life time unmarred by these com pletely preventable diseases. If a card comes to your house, checkyour child's health records. If all the recommend ed Immunizations have been completed up to date, mark the card properly and send It back to the State Board of Health. If not. check with your doctor today. A child's good health Is his most valuable possession. Pre vention Is safer, cheaper, eas ier, and always surer than cure. 1 1 Apple Lrrowers To Vole July 6 North Carolina commercial growers will vote July 6, on a program of self-assessment to promote the state's ex panding apple industry. The proposals to be voted on are assessments of three cents per bushel, or bushel equivalent, for all apples pack aged for sale and three cents per hundred pounds for apples sold to processors, excluding fruit sold for Juice. A fovorahle vote of two-thirds of those voting will be required for adoption. Eligible to vote are orchard owners and those who lease or chards and operate them Inde pendently of the owner and who either package apples for sale in closed containers or sell to processors. This will be the fourth such referendum for Tar Heel apple TO X>At> vAlW WE ? growers. The three previous proposals failed to receive the necessary two-thirds favorable vote. The last referendum was held in 1962. (irf|Tp?IS THE TIME TO BUY iMniDHDcn Good Selection Of Late Model Used Cars Several '64 Chevy's & Fords Also Several Good '60 '61 &'62 Models.
