TETANUS
MAY END
HIS LIFE

In the home of Joseph Grobarac, 412
One Hundred and Fifty fifth street
West Hammond. lies a 7-year-old boy,
one of FIVE children. who is on the verge
of death owing to a malignant case of
tetanus-the dreaded disease, commonly
known as iockjaw.
How the deadly germ entered the lit
tie sufferers system is not positively
known, but DR.. A. a. Young. the at
tending physician, is the opinion that
the lockjaw Is due to a mosquito bite
which the boy subsequently scratched
The parents of the child say he had no
firecrackers on the Fourth of July, and
consequently his condition cannot be
attributed powder poisoning He has
a little wound on his foot and his par
ents say that he was not barefooted on
the Fourth.
Has a Chance to Live.
Although having suffered untold
pains since last Sunday, the boy has a
fighting chance for his life. but the
pathetic feature of his case is that his
parents are poor and that after all his
life may be sacrificed because of a lack
of the expensive anti-toxin, the only
thing that can save his life. The ia
ther. who worked at the glue factory.
is out of work, being lad up with an
injured hand. and is nearly distracted
to see his child dying by inches be-
cause there is danger that the life
saving anti-toxin may give out.
The little patient lies on pallet fixed
on the floor where he can be near the
window. His body Is rigid and every
muscle is strained to the breaking
point. The stronger muscles OF the
back bend the body backward and in
this position. with every chord in his
neck protruding like ropes. he has lain
since last Sunday. His jaws are not
tightly locked. He is able to take some
liquid food, but the terrible strain on
his system cannot last much longer.
The case has been brought to the
attention of the ladies of the Settlement
House, and an ecort will be made to
raise funds. If necessary, among the
friends of the stricken family. DIR.
Young is giving the patient all possi-
Bile care and is still in hopes of bring
ing him through the ordeal.
