As to the question of what a par

sights. What a relief it would be to
be able to make clear-cut answer
to this question" he says! "No
method such as vaccination can be
used to protect individuals. SO far
as is known, spraying the nose and
gargling the throat are of doubtful
value
But" he continues more hope
fully, ''since it is apparent that the
disease spreads from person to per
son either through secretion from
the nose and throat or through food
and drink contaminated with eXcre-
ton from the intestinal tract. it
seems reasonable to conclude that
reducing the number of contacts and
using care as to what goes into the
mouths Of our children offers some
protection. Extreme care should be
used in preparing their food and
drink. Children, particularly under
the age of Is should not be allowed
to attend picture shows, parties, and
other group meeting. Swimming
should be reduced to a minimum.
Cautioning further, DR.. Gray
states that considerable evidence ex-
lists to show that it is not advisable
to have children's tonsils removed
when roliomyelitis is prevalent in a
community. In several instances, he
declares, children have come down
with the severest type of poliomye.
