Points
for
Mothers
InfantiIs Paralysis.

lntantile Paralysis.
Infantile paralysis is a germ disease.
Being a germ disease. infantile paraly-
sis is communicable from person to
person It is. contagious and infectious
The germ is mainly taken through
the nose.
1t is communicated by means Of the
nasal discharge.
Wherever possible handkerchiefs
should be destroyed when soiled. In
any event. they should be thoroughly
boiled.
The use of the pocket handkerchief,
however, is not sufficient to protect a
child from infection. The nasal pas
sage and throat should be kept thor
.oughly sterilized. A mouth and nose
wash Of hydrogen peroxide may be
used for the purpose. This may be ap-
piled with an atomizer or other form
OF spray.
Children should be made to avoid the
filth of the streets Under no circum-
stances should they buy fruit or can
dies which have been exposed to the
dust charged air OF the streets.
Do not let your children indulge in
kissing. Infantile paralysis may very
readily be spread in just that way.
Above all. keep your child clean.
These precautions are more neces-
sary in the summer months. but It
would not be unwise to practice them
the whole year.

Mr.. Hill. that there are a good many
hundred university graduates in this
country every year who would be bet
ter off If they had shaped their studies
with a view to agricultural industry
and taken their diploma straight to the
farm.
There is not and never will be any
oversupply of educated farmers.

university education. supplemented by
just such practical instruction as he
would feel essential to any other occu-
patton, is certain Of success on the

tinue in connection with the main
business Of earning living than en-
rchment and enlargement Of the mind.
which is the best gift OF university
life and its proper though seldom real
