The Wake County Health Department yesterday issued a statement calling the attention to the public to the requirements in regard to vaccinations against smallpox and announcing that vaccinations maybe received by white persons every Wednesday from 9 in the morning until 1 in the afternoon, and by colored people every Thursday between the same hours.
The statement follows.
This is to call your attention to the regulations of the Wake county board of health in regard to vaccination against smallpox. We quote Sec. 1 and 2 of these regulations:
“Sec. 1: It shall be unlawful for any teacher or adult pupil to attend any public or private school in the limits of Raleigh township, Wake County, unless and until such teacher or adult pupil shall have been immunized against smallpox in the manner specified for minor pupils.
“Sec. 2: No parent, guardian or householder, in the order named, shall permit any minor child from their family, household or institution to attend any public or private school in Raleigh township, Wake County, unless and until such minor child shall have been immunized against smallpox.”
