Pre-School
Immunizations
Are Required
Don’t let all the furor over
the swine flu vaccine make
you forget to get regular
immunizations for your pre
schooler. says Dr. John F.
McCroan. Director of Epi
demiology in the Georgia
Department of Human Re
sources.
Georgia law requires that
children entering kindergar
ten or first grade have an
immunization certificate
from a physician or from the
county health department. If,
for some reason, circum
stances prevent parents from
having their child immunized
before school starts, a
120-day grace period is
allowed to begin the vaccina
tions.
Required immunizations
are: polio, measles, dip
theria. tetanus, whooping
cough, and reubella.
"Immunization guards
against contagious diseases
and prevents epidemics in
schools and communities. We
recommend that parents
start their child’s immuniza
tions at two months of age,”
says McCroan.
"There are many young
sters between the ages of six
months and six years who
are not protected from
contagious diseases because
they have not been im
munized.” says McCroan.
“The reason may be that the
reduced number of cases of
these diseases in recent
years has deceived parents
into believing that they are
no longer dangerous.
A private physician or the
county public health depart
ment doctor or nurse can
administer each vaccine
when the child is the right
age.

Veterans Advised
About Insurance
Premium Waivers
ATLANTA According
to Georgia Veterans Service
Director Pete Wheeler, it &
entirely possible that some
veterans might be making
unnecessary premium pay
ments on their National Ser
vice Life Insurance (NSLI)
policies.
“All NSLI policies (begin
ning with World War II) pro
vide for a waiver of pre
mium payments in the event
a veteran becomes totally
disabled,” said Wheeler. “A
veteran who has kept his
NSLI policy in force may
not be required to pay pre
miums if he or she becomes
totally disabled before reach
ing age 65, and if the dis
ability has existed for a per
iod of at least six consecutive
months.”
Wheeler pointed out,
however, that, under the law,
a waiver of premium pay
ments for reasons of dis
ability is not automatic: “A
veteran must apply for the
waiver,” he said, “and re
funds of premiums already
paid following the occur
rence of a disability are
usually limited to one year
prior to the filing of the
claim.”
Current VA figures show
that some 70,000 Georgia
veterans of World War II
have kept their NSLI policies
in force. Any veteran having
questions pertaining to his
government insurance should
inquire at the nearest office
of the Georgia Department
of Veterans Service.

Rules-Of-Thumb
For A Garden In The House
Lush green plants add a
refreshing touch to any
home’s decor. However, if
your home’s too dark or
drafty for plants...if you lack
a “green thumb”...or if you
just want to fill-in and bright
en-up hard-to-decorate areas,
spruce up your abode with
beautiful imitation house
plants.
With a bit of ingenuity,
your home can look like a
veritable Garden of Eden. To
keep these lifelike, plastic
beauties looking their attrac
tive best, spray them with
Glass*Plus,® glass, appliance
and cabinet cleaner, and wipe
with a clean cloth or damp
sponge. That’s all the care
they need!

All candidates for political office are
requested to submit copy for their advertisements
to the Progress-Argus office not later than noon on
Monday preceding the publication date. This is the
same deadline that is applicable to regular
advertisers. Candidates who meet this deadline

FACING TOMORROW'S PROBLEMS NOW
Many concerned, dedi
cated physicians today are
coming to the conclusion
that they are more than
healers of the sick. They
feel a responsibility not only
to their patients, but to
society itself.
This is especially the case
of the family practitioner
and suburban doctor. They
know the people who come
to their offices not just as
sick folks in need of treat
ment, but as friends and
neighbors. These physicians
who come to grips with life
on a very human, personal
level are among those be
ginning to worry about the
future of man, and about
the scientific and moral is
sues that are now cropping
up as medicine pushes its
frontiers farther into un
charted areas.
For these concerned doc
tors, leaders in their com
munities, a foremost medical
magazine is publishing a
series on Ethics, Genetics,
and the Future of Man that
objectively explores some of
the critical issues that are
facing society, including in
telligence and race, human
medical experimentation,
the role of the physician in
worldwide survival and the
control of evolution - the
new science of bioethics.
The magazine? Modern
Medicine, which publishes a
If you enjoy the green

of various sizes and shapes

* Tall artificial plants can
brighten up dark corners. In
stall back-lighting to cast ro
mantic shadows on the walls
at night.
* Decorate unused fire
places with imitation plant
arrangements. Move these
groupings to the mantle when
the fireplace is in use.

to decorate your vacation
home and never worry about
watering while you’re away.

Sporting white jerseys for
all home games this fall, the

traditional red on the road,
unless their opponents re
quest another color.
The varsity and B-team

U.S. edition with a circula
tion of more than 170,000
physicians. It also publishes
1 1 international editions in
five languages that reach
more than 450,000 doctors
in 39 countries, making it
the largest circulation medi
cal publication in the world.
In addition to helping
the conscientious doctor
face up to tomorrow’s is
sues today, this influential
magazine also presents him
with the most up-to-date
information on what is going
on in clinical medicine, plus
practical discussions of pro
fessional problems. There's
also a unique department
on drug actions and inter
actions for doctors to clip
and file for use when they
write prescriptions.

tor may well find Modern
Medicine to be an important
adjunct to his practice, de

along with his stethoscope,
blood pressure cuff and
medical reference books.
