Revision of a film first produced 1924 "Skipper, aged four, and the youngest member of an average American family, has fallen ill. As there are many cases of diphtheria in town, Dr. Simmons is called in. He finds that Skipper has only raided the family ice-box. However, pre- cautions are taken and Skipper is given his first injection for diphtheria immuniza- tion. Dr. Simmons tells Skipper's mother of the days when his grandfather prac- ticed medicine. The film fades back to little Betty and Johnny Adams in 1860, showing how, because of the lack of pre- ventive measures, Betty Adams lost her life from diphtheria. Dr. Simmons also tells the story of Von Behring's first anti- toxin injection in 1891, which is portrayed in a Christmas scene. The next generation of Betty and Johnny Adams in 1900 are shown saved by antitoxin. The doctor then shows how simply we can prevent diphtheria by toxin-antitoxin or toxoid."
