PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: Before it got around to
the time for my usual visits to my
favorite spots, snow hurries and
icy blast right out of ole man
winters best cold storage had
driven most of the dyed-in the
wool-FariSh Streeters to cover
and warmth Those / ran into
were gathered around the gas
burners in the popular spots given
bent to opinion and illustrating on
subjects anywhere from the ''rela-
tive balance between the material
and manpoWer to be expended by
the United States and England in
the opening of the second front,
to the affects of that new propel-
lerless plane that they're now talk
ing about, on the future of Mill
tary and civil aviation. One group,
perhaps cognizant of how little we
could do in the weighter1natters Of
politics and diplomacy, got to talk
ing about the dreadfulness of in
fantile paralysis and how presis-
tently its secret was resisting the
best medical minds of the world.
Speaking of infantile paralysis, the
eleventh annual appeal for funds
with which to carry on the first
against infantile paralysis, will be
conducted between January 14th
and 31st, Basil O'Connor, Presi-
dent of the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis announced
last week. One half of the money
raised during the annual fund
appeal remains with the National
Foundation Chapters, to furnish
aid to local infantile paralysis vic
Tins regardless of age, race, creed
or color. The other half goes to
the National Foundation for its
program of research, epidemic and
education. They call this campaign
the MARCH OF DIMES, when
everybody is asked to give a dime
to help destroy this dreaded dis
ease. While we might not be able
to do more than talk about the
heavy political and diplomatic
matters, everyone can, and every
one should, JOIN THE MARCH
OF DIMES.
