Infantlle Paralysis
Now Believed to be by Dust and Horse Flies
Virus Found by Swedish Doctor.

+ Contributed by DR.. S. w. Moorhead,
delegate from the city of Keokuk to
the International Health Congress
held In Washington, d. C. Sept. 1928,
1929
| The means of infection of poliomy-
elitis, or infantile paralysis, which has
completely baffled the medical pro
lfession of the world in the compare
lively few years in which 1t has been
closely studied, was virtually estab-
| lished as result of experiments by
Prof. Alfred Peterson of Stock

paper read before the recent Interna-
tional Congress on Hygiene and Dem

charge of persons who had been ex-
posed to the disease through asso-
citation with its victims. His discovery
i is taken as a vindication of the
theory of DR.. Simon Flexner, director
of the Rockefeller Institute for Medi
cal Research, New York City, that
the disease is communicable from per
son to person through the upper re
spiratory passages, or that the bac.
terra leaving one person may be con
veyed through the medium of dust
and wind. The result of the sympo-
stun in which students of the disease

pated will, it is believed, result in the
general acceptance by the medical
profession of the practice of of isola-
/ tion in infantile paralysis cases.
The Importance and practical value
of this discovery can hardly be over.
estimated. Largely because of the
inability of the medical profession to
determine upon It's means of trans
mission, infantile paralysis has been
a most battling subject, and in the

a heavy toll of child life in particular

self in paralysis of one or more or
gans and in affections OF the, mind
has ranged upward of rs per cent. It
has been the subject of constant lab
oratory research throughout the coun-
| try, and because of the infintisemal
size of the germ SO small that 1t can
not be caught in the finest of bacteria
i logical filters, scien.ific men have
been unable to unite upon any deter
mination as to its means of transmits
sion from person to person. All ex-
periments have pointed to the exist
ence of germ in the disease, but SO
fine is this bacteria it was never posi-
lively identified until DR.. Peterson
succeeded In isolating It,
At the same congress DR.. M. j.
Z! Rosenau of Harvard University
brought forward the theory that the
stable fly is the real transmitter Of
infantile paralysis. Few scientists
were ready to admit that DR.. Rose
nau has discovered the source of in
fantile paralysis infection. His
statements aroused much interesting
discussion. He declared that he OBJ
tanned twelve monkeys which were
infected with the disease. Stable
flies were placed IN the cages with
| the, monkeys. Later these monkeys
became infected with infantile par
alysis. DR.. Rosenau declared that he
then took tissue from the monkeys
| which had been bitten by the stable
| flies and with this .noculated third
set Of monkeys. These monkeys in
turn became afflicted with the dis
case.
| There Is no known remedy for in
| fantile paralysis, but If the cause of
the disease and the means by which
/ it is transmitted are known it can be
! dealt with successfully by preventive
! measures and an ounce Of proven
tion is worth more than the tradition
al pound of cure. A high degree of
practical interest therefore attaches
! to the discoveries announced at the
| International health congress, and
physicians and laity would co well to
cooperate along the lines indicated
with a view to stamping out the
dread disease.

HOME, SWEET HOME.
Home, sweet home! How many men
Have sung that song the world
around,
And longed to find themselves again
Upon that sweetly hallowed ground!
The sailor on the distant sea,
The hunter high upon the hill,
Each of them dwelling tenderly
Upon its sweet relations still!
The love of kindred fills the place,
To keep it beautiful and sweet
Through all the years that come
apace,
And whatsoever we may meet.
Nor ever man so base but tears
Have dimmed his eyes the way
along
For knowing through the long, long
years
The truth of that immortal song.
Home, sweet home! The world grows
old,
But that sweet song is ever young,
And will retain its tender hold
So long as ever songs are sung,
There is no other place the same,
Wherever human feet may wend,
And in that song we shall acclaim
Our great love for it to the end
