true, and of limited proportions,
at about this time of year. Fortu-
nately it has been many years
since we have had a large, severe
or widespread epidemic.
Infantile paralysis presents a
striking example Of the preach
ments L have been making all
week. Suppose we had a preven-
tive vaccine for it-how eagerly
would everyone rush to take ad-
vantage Of this in the face Of the
fear Of an actual outbreak of the
disease. Yet we remain coldly
indifferent to the fact that we
do have protective vaccination
against diphtheria, smallpox and
typhoid fever. These diseases are
far off and remote because these
very measures Of protection have
been used long enough to make
them so. And on account of their

lect what probably is mans great
est conquest over Nature.
known Aids
There are certain principles.
however, known to US about in
fantile paralysis, which lead the
way to some measures Of preven-
ton, uncertain as they are.
We believe that the portals Of
entry OF the virus are the nose,
throat and possibly the digestive
tract. 1t is probably conveyed in
the vast ma jeritY of cases from
one infected individual to another.
In the early stage OF the disease
there is usually no paralysis and
nothing to indicate tie real nature
of the trouble. The child has head
ache, fever, nausea and a mild
sore throat. This stage lasts from
twenty-four to thirty-six hours
and may be followed by a period
of one to four days before paraly-
sis sets in.
Therefore it seems very sensi.
bic to say: Keep your children
away from other sick children at
this time of year, no matter how
trivial the illness may seem.
Avoid Exhaustion
Avoid gatherings Of children
during the summer and autumn
months, especially baby shows.
Especially contests where it is to
be judged which child has the per-
feet back. When he gets through
with the contest he may not have
such a perfect back.
Another thing we know def
nitely about infantile paralysis is
that it is not highly contagious.
If a hundred children we're ex-
posed TO it probably not more
than two would contract it. II is
even less contagious than scarlet
fever, the least contagious of the
common childhood diseases. In
dividual susceptibility depends
upon the child's condition. So it
is we'll that children at this time
OF year 90 not get exhausted by
games, or chilled'by long stay in
cold water while swimming.
Other methods of prevention
advocated by health authorities do
not seem to me logical.
II it does strike, the child
should have long period Of rest
in convalescence. | believe most
sound orthopedic judgment is
swinging away from the Kenny
treatment. Its promised advan-
tages did not pan out

JEWISH FEAST
 OPENS OCT. 1S
Reform Hebrews to CeIe. brate Festival for 8 Days
 Starting Tomorrow

Sukos, the Feast of Tabernacles, which begins on Wednesday evening, October l3, has a twofold signifi- canoe. Primarily 1t was a harvest festival, the character of which was for ancient Israel much what our national Thanksgiving cay is to us. Then, too, it was intended to remind the Jewish people of the providence of God, in that during their march into the Holy Land, they were pro- tected from every danger, even though they were compelled to dwell in frail huts.
 Reform Jews celebrate the festival for period of eight days, while their more orthodox brethren ob- serve thief estival for a ninth day. Involved in the celebration of sukos this year Is the reminder of the ob- ligation of prosperous peoples to care for those who are less fortunate than themselves. During this war period, the festival of Sukos takes on added significance because the production of food will play an in- creasingly important part in the winning of the war. Thus a celebra- tion of very ancient festival, which praises the bounty of God, becomes especially important in these times
