From a statement
March 28, 1944

never read articles like thar, of course, for
these are the personal tragedies that peuple
bear in silence.

So, when you pick up the paper sometime
and read, “* . . . there were 5,000 new
VENEREAL DISEASE cases reported in this
province last year... » remeinber! These
are not cold figures, They represent 5,000

heart-breaking . . . hearc-aching situations.

Yes, VENEREAL DISEASE is a scrious
problem. It’s a problem for parents; for
taxpayers; for young people on the thres-
hold of life; for everyonc.

VENEREAL DISEASE need never strike if
.we all do our part. If we know the facts. lf
we use these facts to advantage. If we don't
shrug our shoulders and say, *“This couldn't
happen to anyone in my family.”’

You have a duty to your family and the
community.
