BREAKFAST
From coast to coast and from the
Gulf of Mexico to Canada, there is a
great response to the cause of eradi
cation of infantile paralysis by re
search and care. Funds for the foun
dation for war on polio are to be
raised in parties, balls and other
functions on January 29th, the birth
day anniversary fo President Roose
velt, the nation's most outstanding
victim of this malady.
Here in Plattsmouth the event will
be marked by a ball to be held at the
American Legion building and the
proceeds of the ball aside from the
actual expenses, will be turne'd over
to the foundation for its use in the
polio warfare. Those attending and
securing tickets can aid in the most
worthy cause that has taken toll of
so many thousands.
The paradoxical phases of Infan
tile paralysis are quite numerous. In
the first place, designating the dis
ease as infantile paralysis is a mis
nomer. It is not limited to infants
only. Many cases have been recorded
where the victims were between the
ages of 20 to 70 years.
Also the word paralysis is applied
to the disease in an erroneous man
ner for there have been many cases
where the patients have recovered
completely without any sign of
paralysis.
In th majority of instances, severe
epidemics of infantile paralysis have
occurred between the months of June
and October. One would think the
epidemics would occur when children
were in school rather than at the
time when they are enjoying their
summer vacation.
It has been discovered that epi
demics are more numerous and more
severe in the temperate zones than
in the tropical and subtropical cli
mates. There have been no severe
epidemics in the southern part of the
United States but there have been
several major epidemics in the north
eastern and north central states and
these occurred in the summer months
when the temperature in the north
ern states was on a par with that
of the southern climate.
In a family of three or four chil
dren, most contagious diseases that
affect one will affect them all. Infan
tile paralysis, a contageious disease,
usually only affects one child in a
family and the others seem to become
immunized. There are exceptions to
this principle but they are rather
rare.
There is a lack of periodicity in
infantile paralysis. A certain area
Apparently healthy adults can be
carriers of the disease, as well as
children who are sick from it. It has
been said that it can be communi
cated by direct contact through sneez
ing, coughing, kissing, and even loud
speaking.
We gain protection from the dis
ease by not living too shut-in a life.
According to Dr. J. P. Leake, Sur
geon, United States Public Health
Service, "The more crowded and cos
mopolitan the community in which
the child grows up, the sooner, ap
parently, he acquires protection
against the disease, though he may
get a frank attack in obtaining such
protection."

When baby came, we got a telephone
so we could keep in touch with the
doctor. Now it gives us so much
pleasure that we'll never be without
it. We talk with friends and neigh
bors. The Mrs. telephones her mother
frequently. And it makes it real
cheerful here on the farm even in
the most disagreeable weather. It
doesn't pay to be without a tele
phone; it costs so little.
