When you think of
Nothing of special interest has
occurred this past week in the De

struction at Talent school was the
only deviation from the regular
schedule.
Some apprehension has been man
ifested regarding two cases of In
fantile
Paralysis reported and
while little is known about the ori
gin of the disease, we do know it is
caused by a germ and is spread
one person to another. The best
advice is prevention—keep your
children clean and in a good phys
ical condition as possible—keep
your child away from crowds and
homes where there is sickness.
Keep premises free from rubbish
and fleas. A child may be sick
with Infantile Paralysis for twenty-
four or seventy two hours, before
any signs of paralysis appear—the
disease usually starts like some oth
er contagious, diseases—the child
that was perfectly well becomes
restless and drousy, is quite Irrit
able—there may be vomiting or di
arrhea, but constipation is the rule
—there may be headache-pains in
the muscles and stiff neck—fever or
convultions before paralysis. This
symptom may be very slight or en
tirely absent but no matter how
mild the illness may seem—call
your doctor at once as by making
diagnosis before paralysis sets in,
it may be prevented by convales
cent serum—and follow his instruc
tions. Under no circumstances use
massage or rub the child until your
physician instructs you to. Many
cases have been permanently crip
pled because this treatment was be
gun too soon.

knows best. Unless health officials
advise do not close schools.

Last Sunday night word came ov
er the radio that a big forest Are
in Southern California was under
control after burning over 300 ac
res. It was fought by 600 men. An
other big Are was still raging and
had done hundreds of thousands of
dollars damage. These fires were
in brush and scrub timber.
