Tuberculosis Clinics Expand Public Health Efforts
A regular semimonthly free tuberculosis clinic will be held Friday morning from 10 to 12 at the Artillery Armory in Bristol under Dr Washburn of Providence with local physicians assisting. Funds from townspeople covered scales costing 5550 dollars with Waldron Co providing a discount that allowed 270 dollars to be reallocated to clinic expenses. Dr Pitta of New Bedford will lecture to Portuguese residents on tuberculosis and hygiene at Colt Memorial High School on the first Sunday after Easter as part of a public health series.
