Evidently there is more danger in
the epidemic of infantile paralysis
which pervades the East than people
realize. That it is coming this way
seems assured by the action of health
bodies at Chicago and other large cit
les. Even in North Dakota, which
may be considered as being at safe
distance, no risks should be taken by
letting children mingle promiscuously
in crowds and among strangers. Pre-
vention is easier and better than a
cure.
