The Finer Carolina" committee
certainly pulled one out of the
bag when they adopted the build
ing of Il community hospital as
one OF their projects. II took rervc
TO even breach the subject-much
less adopt it as project.
There is no doubt that the COM
mittee members will be discour-
aged AT times by the attitude of a
few; however, out of such dreams
come mighty fine things. A lot
OF iolkS never expected anything
to materialize from the talk of a
shirt and pajama plant: however.
its presence in Tabor City is tcsti-
mony enough that the pessimists
were fooled again.
don't expect to see the founda-
ton laid next week or anytime
within the next six months: how
ever, If we are ever 10 have a
community hospital or anything
of such worthy nature then the
movement has to begin someplace
at some time or other. Those things
don't just pop up overnight.
Competition in the grocery line
is really getting keen in our small
community. In the past six months
there have been several remodel
ing jobs undertaken by various
grocerS ana the effects have been
stimulating. It's good for the town
when competition exists; keeps
everyone on his toes and the Gus
toner Is given the breaks.
One line hes always had plenty
of competition in this community.

appliance bearers. There are ap-

pliance dealers number about IS.
| doubt if there is any other town
our size IN North Carolina that has
more furniture or appliance deal
crS.

Polio. Patient Expected Nome

Mrs. Gary LaRose of Palmer is expected home sometime next week from Providence Hospital in Anchorage where she is re- covering from poIiomyelitis. Mrs, LaRose was stricken by the dis ease last week, shortly after the LaRose'S three-year-old daugh- ter Patty Lyme was hospitalized with polio. Early diagnosis by Dr. Arthur Colberg was credited with the quick recovery of Mrs. LaRose by her husband this week. Patty Lyme is expected to be hospital ized about another month, her father said.
 MT. LaRose said this week that gifts and cards have been sent by many and he wished to extend his thanks to all. Among gifts was a doll sent to, Patty Lyme by children of the. Faith Hill Chil- drens home in Palmer. Anyone sending cards to Mrs. LaRose is asked to mail them to the Pal mer address.

PALMER MOOSE TOP MALEMUTES

Radio listeners last night were treated to one of the closest fought basketball games of the season when the Palmer High School Moose trimmed the Fair banks Malemutes in an overtime period, 48-46.
 Palmer took an early lead and was ahead of the far-north team 11-8 at the end of the first quar- ter. Although the Malemutes started a gradual climb in the second quarter, Palmer was still out front 21-20 at half time.
 A combination of field goals put the Malemutes in the lead dur ing the third quarter, 33-31 and when the final whistle was sound ed, the teams were tied up 42-42 The tie was broken in a three minute overtime period when Palmer shot a field goal, making the score 44-22; foul shot by Fairbanks, followed by a field goal put them in the lead 4544. Two foul shots by Palmer gave them the lead, 46-44 and with only B seconds of play remaining m the overtime period, Fairbanks made good a foul shot and tied the game up, 46-46. Taking the ball downcourt, the Palmer Moose held on long enough for Hemmer to drop field goal, cinching the game for the local boys.
 Tonight they meet the Anchor age Eagles.

Questions and
 Answers On Polio

The following questions and an esWers pertaining to polio were prepared for Parents Magazine by the National Foundation fo1 Infantile Paralysis and are among those most frequently ask ed about. They are reprinted here to help readers with some of their qustions about the disease of the central nervous system which is caused by a tiny virus.
 O. How does the polio virus en- fer the human body? A. It prob ably gets into the alimentary can al from the mouth and nose. The way it travels to the motor nerve cells, where it does its damage, is not yet fully established.
 o. What are the symptoms of polio? A. Headache, sore throat, upset stomach, sore muscles, dig ziness, stiff neck and back, fever, and infrequently, difficulty in swallowing or breathing. In it's initial stages, polio may resemble any other illnesses. O. Do many people die from polio? A. Rela- lively few: about 89o of all re- ported cases.
 o. Why is polio called infantile paralysis? A. Because in the earl jest epidemics the disease seemed 1tQ strike at infants and very young children almost entirely, and because it was thought al ways to paralyze It is, today, misnomer, since the group most affected is past infancy 6 to 9 years of age), and at least 50% of the cases are not paralyzed.
 O. Do poor sanitation conditions cause higher polio incidence? A.. Quite contrary-lack of sanitation seems to increase immunity. Children who are constantly ex- posed to the virus in small doses build immunity. O. How many people recover completely from infanile paralysis? A. About a50% of all reported cases recover com pletely. Another 25% recover with slight after effects that do not interfere with normal living About 179o are seriously and per mantly crippled, and about 8% die.
