Hats will be large. rich in

a high feeling in the crowns, the

Usually this long name is short
ened to polio" particularly
among doctors, and now I find
that people generally are begin
ing to refer to it by this term.
Rarely Found
In Hot Countries
It is a disease Of moderate
climates, rarely found in very
hot tropic countries and it ls
almost unheard of in the far
North. Its favorite stamping
ground is in the Great Lakes
district of North America where
the temperature is variable and
the climate moderate. Here in
Callander we are less than so
miles from Lake Huron, so we
come well within what we might
call its home grounds.
Polio is shrouded in mystery,
for we can't tell exactly what
causes it. An organism causes
it, true, but this isn't an ordi-
nary bacteria because it can't
be seen under the microscope.
Monkeys can be infected with
the disease from human beings
by the injection of materials
from the nose and throat OF
infected humans.
Probably nc disease has re-
ceived the intensive research
that polio has in the attempt to
prevent the illness or, at least.
check it before actual paralysis
takes place. Cancer has come
in for lot of research in our
laboratories, too, but we can do
something to control and cure
cancer.

He's equally indulgent to

SnOOds
And Hair Nets

Snoods and hairnets, to cover
the spring coiffures, are an i'm
portant influence in spring hats
with hairnets given the
greater emphasis as head GOV.
erings in Lilly Dache's forecast.
Hairnets, however, will not be
the old-fashioned, badly-fitted
ones, but will fit like snoods
and be decorated with gay little
ribbon bows, beads and with
sequins for evening wear.
With hairnets and Snoods to
anchor them, hats will be more
than ever "perched" on the side
of the head.
