Ix't thin be thoroughly understood, for everyone in this city feels profoundly the gravity of the preii- . ent situation. l!ut there is little uc to become hysterical and there is positively no use in making matters worse than they are. We are told that infantile paralysis is a summer disease, that with the cool days and nights it disappears. We are having the cool weath er and all who are closely watching the situation believe it will Boon be' over. Let us inwardly pray that such is true. As for closing a city the size of Klamath Falls, such a thing is impossible to do. We may suspend business, we may cease to have any public gather ings, but even then we will experience just what other cities have experienced namely, failure in a very large degree to close the community. The seemingly possible and correct thing to do is to keep children from public gatherings, keep them out of the business section if possible, and urge them, to stay in the open air. This is following the plain intent of the recommendation of the State Hoard -of Health and let us each and everyone ap point ourselves. as a committee to see that this is done. ' " It would be folly to plunge this city into a panic relative to complete closing when the children can and will be looked after. Then, why should we not proceed with saneness and even balance to the end that the children the dearest part of.this commun ity shall have the surveillance and protection which the adults of this-city can give.
