Mr.. Prescott received Il cable this
morning which he doubtless reIayed
on to You. Leslie. stating that you,
mother and Mr.. Whitney would be
here on the twentieth Of this month
That j. one week from today. am
afraid She will be disappointed not to
find YOU awaiting here at the dock.
However. | know your mother we'll
enough to know that when Ruth 5
need is explained to her. she will
wait until YOU can come back TO her.
Leslie, every day | see your hus-
band | more andd more realize how
hoyish he is! As he read me the
cib.rgram from your mother he SAID.
Gee! | wish Leslie would come
home! Seems that / never wanted
her so much in my life!"
Don't you worry, Leslie dear, he
doesn't really need YOU. He just
hates to think that he must have any
social duties at all. With both your
mother and Paula here, he knows he
viii have many calls upon him. Be-
sides, you know, that Mrs. Prescott,
senior, is like the poor and always
with US, and to tell the truth. | think
she is quite as welcome rs the poor
to most of US.
! read Il little note in the paper
yesterday, saying that your mother
and Karl Whitney were expected very
soon and there was Il sly reference to
the fact that all the girls in society
were haunting the importers just ut
present because they knew that the
most eligible young bachelor in all
Pittsburgh would probably be on the
market again.

When they looked up again to see

The people in the pictures were
moving. They had become real! And
the animals were real, and the houses

real. You could see that the frames

What gives the disease surh par

, which results from the inflammation
Of the spinal cord. a paralysis that
may cripple It's victims for years or
even for life. The first symptoms OF
infantilc paralysis are usually fever
some digestive disturbance, pain in
the back and limbs and sometimes
unusual nervous symptoms.
Excessive Hrowsincss and restless

symptoms and it is now recognized
that many cases have only these

KEEP CHILDREN AT HOME
IN TIME OF EPIDEMIC

subside the primary paralysis tends
to become less extensive and Il GER
tain portion Of the cases progress to
complete recovery within few weeks
or months. In other cases this early
Improvement stops short of recovery,
leaving a more or less extensive par
a!ysis which may disappear with 4
wear or more af careful treatment
or may be permanent, depending upon
the extent Of damage to the spinal
cord.
The cause of this disease is a
minute germ, so small that it passes
readily through the pores Of dense
porcelain fi:tcr which holds back
ordinary bacteria.
Experiments have shown that the
germ is present in the nose and
thraat Of children in the acute stage
Of the disease and, what is Of greater
importance, that it is present at times
in the nose and throat of people who
are apparently in perfect health. SO
we have germ carriers OF infantilc
paralysis just as we have germ ear
ricrs Of dphtheria.
You should know that for the con-
troll Of infantile paralysis it is i'm
pcrative that all cases as soon as
recognized be isolated for a period
Of three weeks.
No means has yet been discovered
for minimizing children against in
fantilc paralysis. The most effective
treatment in the early stage is the
simple care which any intelligent
physician will prescribe.
Treatment Of the residual paralysis,
that is the partial paralysis that re-
mains requires an expert orthopcdic
surgeon and above all patience and
persistence on the part of the par
ents Of the affected child. In cases
where Improvement appears to have
stopped much good can be accom-

treatment for years. In some cases

New York, Nov. 20. Sunday morn
ing is the one time when life in New
York seems much the same as il would
in any other city, It is The one time
when the tumult fades out, when the
cliff-dwcllerS may enjoy in their
homes something Of the Sabbatical
calm that pervades small communities.
OF course, the night-lifcrs use their
Sunday mornings for late sleeping
and for rccupe,ation from their dis
sipation. but generally the day affords
the average New Yorker his one OPP
portunity for complete domesticity.
| believe one of the most impress
sive things in New York is the ring
ing of the church bells. iGcs, there
are churches in this lrell-holc.) The
bells are Of many tones and various
volumes and there is martial Chris
tianity in their concerted Ginning.
Recently John ID. Rookie teiier, Jr.,
paid for the installation of a carlton
in the Park Avenue Baptist Church.
This is the largest set of chimes in
America and each Sunday Il concert
is given. Great throngs gather about
the church and fill the streets to lis
ten to the program, which includes
almost all kinds of selections except
modern jazz.
That amuses me. Most Of those
gathered about the church cOuld hear
the concert if they opened the win
dows Of their homes, for the sound of
the chimes carry for miles, and fur
+ Their, it is relayed.
Speaking Of the radio, n broadcast
ing studio attendant tells me that a
certain program conductor, who is in
the habit Of pronouncing the benedic-
ton on his audience at the close Of
Il program, sometimes shouts $50 to
hell" just after the microphone is
shut of.
Michael Sheinbcrg. a druggist,
dreamed the other night that his lit
tile son had been kidnapped. He did
not recall the dream on awakening
in the morning and went to his bust
ness. Late in the afternoon he re-
membered the dream and all its vivid
details. 1t affected him so that he
jumped into his auto and drove home
ut top speed. He didn't stop the en-
CINE when he arrived home, but leaped
out and ran through the house shout
| ing, Jackie, Jackie, where's my
jacket" With Jackie safe in his
arms, he was greatly relieved. Then
he heard the engine of his car in
crease its speed and looked out just in
time to see auto thieves making off
with it.
