which every year takes the lives
OF 50 many thousand children or
wrecks their bodies with pain and
leaves them twisted and sllrunk.

forts of medical scientists. A
year ago DIR. Flexner announced
that he was sure infan,ile paral.
ysis was germ disease and be-
lieved he had succeeded in cul.
uvating the germ, but had new
e. been able 20 see il. Now,
there is no doubt left. He has
isolated the germ, which is in.
conceivably minute. and has made
II visible under a high.powcr
miscroscope And by injecting
animals with this germ culture. he
has proven that the disease u
iranSmisible.
More than that be- has discoy

The germs enter the child :
body. he says, through the mn.
cous membranes of the mouth.

doctors can proceed intelhgently
