 After the Greshams had re turned from Seward and were settled for the night, the second misfortune took p1aee-an oil stove in one of their cabins ex- p1oded completely destroying the building. It's occupant, Bills brother, Swede, crawled from the flames uninjured.

ChiIds Arm Turns Hard Stony;
Medical Treatment Slows Process

Christine VersluiS, who is
nine and lives on the shores
of Lake Ontario at Hilton,
NY, is unable to straighten
her right arm because of
rheumatic disease.
Her arm and parts of
both shoulders are becom-
ing increasingly calcified,
which means change of the
muscle tissue into a hard
stony substance.
This somber-faced child is
the tragic victim of dermato-
myositiS, one of the forms of
rheumatic disease. Another
form is rheumatoid arthritis.
The majority of people don't
know that children suffer from
arthritis; they believe mistak-
emily that arthritiS affiicts only
the aging g-someone's grand
father or grandmother, surely
not the very young.
But there is urgent reason
today why grownups and par
entS especially should be intel
ligently informed about arthri-
It's among children. DR.. William
S. Clark, director of medical
care of The National Founda-
ton, whose expanded program
embraces arthritiS, birth de-
fects and continued work in
polio, said this week:
"Rheumatoid arthritis is a
type that can make children
very i'll indeed. They may be-
come severely crippled. Their
joints may freeze Happily,
we can now demonstrate today
that with proper treatment
and care, most of the crippling
caused by juvenile rheumatoid
arthritis can be prevented"
But the cardinal point, DR..
Clark emphasizes, is that thou
sands of children have rheu-
matoid arthritis without know
ing what the disease they suffer
from really is. Their parents
may dismiss the aching in
neck, knees, wrists or elbows
