Lots of folks call Ethel, Miss Blood Pressure,
because she’s one of the Red Cross volunteers who
gives free blood pressure tests.
“High blood pressure is a silent disease,” warns
Ethel. “Generally, there are no symptoms. The only way
to tell if you’ve got it is to have your blood pressure
taken.”
About 35 million Americans have high blood pres
sure. It’s a leading cause of stroke, heart disease and
kidney problems.
Prompt treatment reduces that danger. In most
people, high blood pressure can be lowered and kept
under control.
When was the last time you had your blood pres
sure checked? If you can't remember, it’s been too long.
Call your doctor.
Or call us.

Richmond County high
school with the exception of
Glenn Hills and Westside
where students will be
divided into two groups,
each of which will have two
days to take the tests. The
tests will help identify
students who have not
acquired these important
basic skills and will aid
teachers in planning in

students.
Those students not per
