Polio Danger

One OF the most drea d d
scourges of mankind is the Grip
pling disease, poliomyelitis, which
strikes in any quarter and may
find its way into YOUR home
next.
That is why the National Foun-
dation for Infantile Paralysis has
selected for the l945 appeal for
funds the slogan:
"YOur Child May BE Next"
And that is why the Detroit
drive for contributions is so sig
nificant-so the youngsters Of this
community may have the best
possible opportunity for recovery,
once they become victims of this
frightful virus.
