ponds upon your support in the
election on November End.
am not conducting a mud
singing campaign and have ad-
vised my friends and supporters
accordingly. | have nothing d s.
paraging Or uncomplimentary to
say about my opponent or anyone
associated with this campaign.
My opponent is member of one
of the most prominent families
in the county. His father was the
first Clerk and served in this
capacity for several years. From
1923 to 1882 another member of
the family served the county as
Commonwealth Attorney.
I was born and reared on Can

college during the summer. To be

schools before I was awarded my
Masters Degree in August, 1887.

this time. All I ask is that you

A Word From
EVerette B. Stanley
Candidate For Clerk

P. Stanley, a great uncle of mine,
was appointed several years ago
to serve an uneXpired term as
Sheriff but died before the eX-
piration of his term of office. We
have all paid our taxes and have
been law abiding citizens a d
have contented ourselves to stand
back and help the other fellow
along the best we could. 1t would
be a new experience for men,
Der of my family to be elected to
public office.
l am qualified for the office,
and to be frank with you, need
the office. AS you know the teach.
ing profession is the most un-
derpaid of any profession in this
country. In order to meet all the
requirements and to give the
children the best that is possible
it is necessary that teachers spend
a large part of their time and
earnings in school in order that
they may retain their positions
as teachers. AS a result teachers
give a life of service to their peo-
pie and remain poor at the end.
My election will make it possible
for me to hold what little I have
been able to accumulate teaching
school. and at the same time put
me in position to do things for
my family that l will be unable
to do if I am defeated. In MAX
ing up your mind as to how you
are going to vote in this particu-
lar race 1 would appreciate it if
you would take into consideration
the future welfare of my boys.
Consider my case from the stand
point Of need, and remember that
the person that needs public Of
flee the worst is the one that will
appreciate it the most when he
gets it. He is the one that will
know you and will do the most
for you after the election.
l earnestly and hopefully So
licit your support, and if elected,
l promise you that for the next
eight years you will receive an
efficient, courteous and impair
tial administration in the office of
County Clerk. believe that am
acquainted with practically all
of the people in the county, and
I trust that most of you know me
and have the confidence in me
that I have always aspired to OBJ
tain.
I want to take this opportunity
of thanking each and everyone
for your thoughtfulness and kind
ness in past years, and I want to
assure you that you will never
regret any support that you give
me in this campaign through any
act of mine. In return for your
support, I promise a fair and
honest administration, and one
which will be devoted to the best
interests of the people of our
county.
With best personal wishes to
you and your. I am

Kenny Treatment

Miss Kenny found by experience
that by using hot packs on the
affected muscles and by nanipu-
lating and moving the limbs from
the very earliest period of the
disease, muscle spasn is relieved,
She believes that by using this
method more recoverics take place.
And finally she has come to the
conclusion that the disease is
located in the muscle alone and
that the nervous system or motor
nerve cells are not diseased at all.
1t is unfortunate that she ever
forced herself to the last conclu-
SION, The application Of the hot
packs and the msnipulations early
in the disease are forms Of phys
iotherapy that had probably been
neglected BY the regular profes
sion and which probably do GER
te-n. amount Of good, But TO deny
that motor nerve cells are not de-
stroyed by the disease Is sheer
nonsense and I am not acquainted
with any physician who believes
that.
Residual Paralysis
In nearly any case Of lnfantlle
paralysis there is early in the dis
case a wider extent Of paralysis
than that which finally remains.
As the patient RECEIVERS he regains
control over group after group of
muscles no matter what the treat
ment. What is left permanently is
known as residual paralysis. The
Kenny method has no treatment
for these residual psralyses and
the resulting determines, and they
occur Just as frequently under her
treatment as under orthodox treat
ment.
Her statement that under her
treatment so per cent of patients
recovered while under orthodox
treatment the average percentage
of recoveries was IL per cent" is
simply q misstatement. In Alberta,
IN l94l. DR.. R. q. Huckell reported
that Of 167 patients treated by
orthodox methods during an cpl
demic $50 per cent recovered TO
the stage where they we're prac-
tlcally normal. That is the same
as the Kenny percentage Of re-
coyery and statistics from other
epidemics show that this is the
usual recovery rate.

tween her and what she calls 1.-THE
orthodoxes" in the medical pro-
fession.
The orthodox view IS that in
fantile paralysis is an infectious
disease. the virus Of which has a
particular affinity for those cells
in the nervous system located in
the spinal cord which send tibrils
70 and control muscle movement.
The inflammation of and around
these cells sometimes puts them
out of commission temporarily so
that there is a temporary paralysis
and sometimes completely destroys
them so that there is permanent
paralysis.
