any population where smallpox
vaccination is allowed to lapse,
there is constant danger of a re-
currence of an epidemic.
Smallpox sleeps, but it does not
die. Some place somewhere—in-
deed, in many places everywhere
— there is somebody carrying
around the virus of smallpox.
We had an example a few years
ago of a traveling show which was
nearly disorganized because a case
of smallpox broke out in the midst
of its unvaccinated membership,
and rapidly spread all over.
You’ll say that you have never
seen a case of smallpox. Maybe
you have, and maybe you haven’t.
Not so very many years ago, an
Indiana Health Officer noticed the
following heading in the paper
from a certain city in Indiana:
“The scourge of chicken pox
which began early in the fall
continues to increase in viru-
lence. Many of the patients be-
come completely covered with
* pustules and the head and neck
are so swollen as to make the
patient unrecognizable. There
have been at least 300 cases;
many of them resembling small-
pox. Some of the patients are
apt to go on until it becomes as
bad as smallpox.”
’ A photograph of one of these
cases of “chicken-pox” was sent to
the Health Officer at his request.
No photograph could ever have
illustrated a more beautiful full-
blown case of smallpox.
During an epidemic in my owo
city about twenty years ago, of a
most malignant form of smallpox,
my office and the offices of my
medical friends were crowded with
people clamoring to be vaccinated.
They had never been vaccinated
before and had ne'ver seen the ne-
cessity of It until some real bad
cases were just at their door.
Children are particularly sus-
ceptible to smal|>ox and should,
of course, be vaccinated long be-
fore they go to senool. Vaccination
of children is not nearly as hard
on them as the first vaccination of
an adult. In fact, one American
physician recommends smallpox
vaccination on a child as soon as
it is born; certainly at the age of
six months or a year, the first
smallpox vaccination should be
done.
Smallpox immunity begins to.
run out about the fifth year, and
re-vaecination at this time will
usually result in a take, showing
that the child is not immune to
smallpox.
Of the students who matricu-
lated at a certain college, approxi-.
mately one-fourth had never been
vaccinated against smallpox, and
approximately two-thirds were in
some degree susceptible Only
about 6 To of the group had bean
vaccinated more than once previ-
ously. Compulsory vaccination ob-
tains in some places but voluntary
submission as a result of a full
knowledge of the situation is much
the better course.

Ylena groaned aloud and stood
her ground. “Don’t be an imbecile,
Diane. What is Tate? An infant?
No! He’s plenty old, and plenty ex-
