Although there is yet no definite meafls of preven- tion and cure, there are measures parents can take to help ward off the disease. By keeping close watch over" children during late summer and early fall, when polio is at its peak, any cases that develop may be discovered in the early stages so that recent advances in treat- meat can be most successsfully applied. The disease is caused by a vir- us so small it cannot be seen through an ordinary mocroscope. The virus attacks the nerve cells that control the body's muscles, most commonly those of the arms and legs. It may weaken them or it may cause paralysis. Despite its name infantile par- .ayis may strike older  age grpups and may cripple adults as well as children. The majority of people affected by polio never suffer from weakened muscles or par- alysis. Of those whose muscles are paralyzed, more than half re- cover without serious after-ef- fects. Recent developments in treat- ment, plus the fact that they are now more generally available to victims of the disease, have done much to allay fear of infantile paralysis. The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, through its national office in New York and county chapters throughout the United States, is ready to assist communities where outbreaks oc- cur and to help individuals who get the disease. A polio outbreak is "a time for parents to keep their heads. Panic never prevented or cured a dis- ease. During an outbreak, chil- dren should be kept out of crowds and away from polio patients. They should be kept away from persons who have just come from IF YOU WANT TO °SHOOT ° CHRISTMAS IN with KODACHROME Catch the tlills and joys of Christmas in pictures.

Since people who are over-tired are more apt to get the disease, it is well to see that children get plenty of rest and do not exer- cise too hard. They should not be allowed to stay in cold water too long. It is usually wise to post- pone tonsil and adenoid operations until after the polio season is over. Since flies may be carriers of infection, waste and uncovered garbage should be eliminated from all communities. Sewage must be properly treated. Every effort shotlld be made to protect food from flies and other insects. Chil- dren should be kept away from bathing places polluted by sewage or other filth. During the infantile paralysis "season" children she uld be watched carefully for any symp- toms of illness. A headache, slight fever, a cold, sore throat, or an upset stomach may indicate the onset of polio or any one of a number of childhood diseases. If any of theme symptoms ap- pear, a doctor should be called at once. The important thing is to get the patient under a doc- tor's care so ,t.hat, if the illness is serious, the best treatment can be given promptly.
