Vaccination Clinics
Begin Next Monday
Complete Schedule Re
leased By Local Health
Department
Vaccination clinics will be held in
Chowan County beginning Monday,
May 31, during which time free vac
cination will be given for typhoid
fever, diphtheria, smallpox and
whooping cough. In calling atten
tion to the clinics, Health Department
officials stress the fact that in a
neighboring county there have al
ready been five cases of diphtheria
this year, three of whom died.
It is emphasized that typhoid
fever is strictly a preventable dis
ease. Germs enter by mouth. They
can be transmitted indirectly through
contaminated water, milk or uncooked
vegetables, and directly from a sick
patient to a well person byway of
contaminated fingers, linens, utensils,
etc. Flies may carry germs from
filth to foods. The means of con
trol is by good sanitation and vac
cination.
Those who haven't been vaccinated
for typhoid fever are reminded that
vaccination will be administered at
the local Health Department Wednes
days from 2 to 5 P. M., and on Sat
urdays from 9 A. M. to 12 noon.
Three doses, a week apart, are re*
quired, or a booster, which is one
dose each year. *

Chauffeur’s Licenses
Must Be Renewed By
Wednesday, June 30
Ed Ballenger, State License Ex
aminer, has announced that all chau
ffeurs’ licenses in the State must be
renewed by June 30.
Department officials said there
were approximately 36,500 motorists
in the State who hold chauffeurs’ (
licenses, and the law States that these
licenses must be renewed by mid
night of June 30.
A chauffeur means every person
who is employed for the principal
purpose of operating a passenger
motor vehicle; except school buses,
and every person who drives any ,
motor vehicle while in use as a pub- ■
lie or common carrier for persons .
or property, and this shall apply to (
city delivery motor vehicles.
The Department urges chauffeurs ,
to get their renewals as early as '
possible,' preferably during the re
mainder of May.
June 30th is also the deadline for
persons with surnames beginning
with C or D to have their regular
driving license renewed, and an un
precedented rush is expected to ensue
near the end of June. It is estimat
ed there are around 160,000 C and
D drivers in the State, and so far
only around 46,000 have obtained
their new licenses.
FIRE AT BASE SATURDAY
One of Edenton’s fire trucks rushed
to the Edenton Naval Air Station
Saturday morning, when a pile of
lumber was reported on fire. The
lumber, property of the Norfolk
Southern Railroad, was piled near the
tracks at Waddell, and is supposed to
have been ignited by sparks from
Train No. 1, which had stopped for a
while in the vicinity.
Who feels injustices; who «hrinlr«
before a slight; who has a sense of
wrong so acute, and so glowing a
gratitude for kindness, as a generous
— l Thackery.
