PRICE FIVE a NO NEED FOR FEAR DUE TO N. S. EPIDEMIC Hemenway Explains Symptoms of Infantile Par- alysis Which Has Visited Highland Park. DEATH RATE IS LOW By Keeping Patients Under Quarantine There Is No Need To Worry. By Dr. H. B. Hemenway. The feet that there have been sev- eral cases of Infantile paralysis in Lake county may have unduly alarmed some of the residents along the north shore. The presence of such reports from a near-by town may properly cause the official protectors of the public health to be watchful, and that may serve to decrease the local dan- ger below the normal. In the absence V* known eases early instances cl the disease are frequently overlooked, and mistaken for other ailments, simply because the physicians are not fully on their guard. The presence of in- fantile paralysis in Lake county may therefore serve as a protection for the residents of Cook county. Sporadic or isolated cases may occur anywhere, at almost any time, but there is no epidemic Of this disease in Cook county. Name. .^Infantile paralysis has been known by many names, not one of which is satisfactory. Sometimes paralysis may be absent, and the malady is by no means confined to infants. Seven per cent of Hill's cases in Minnesota, and ten per cent of Wickman's series in Sweden were oyer twenty years of age. The common scientific name Is "Anterior Bolio-Myelitis," which means the inflammation of a certain portion of the spinal cord, but the inflamma- tion may not be confined to that sec- tion, and ill some cases it may be un- injured. Because it Tsay touch, more or less severely, several nervous cen- ters, the symptoms vary greatly in different patients. Very naturally, therefore, the different types were formerly regarded as different dis- eases, and part of the confusion of names was thus produced. What It Is. Infantile paralysis is an Infectious, or contagions disease, Which is spread r-y some living organism:,- wnicn causes a distinct Inflammation partic- ularly in the .forward portion of the gray substance of the spinal cord. That inflammation causes destruction of certain nerve cells, and paralysis is thus produced in the portions of the body directly dependent upon those nerve centers. It Is a living organism, for experiments show that a very small amount or the poisonous material from one patient when in- jected into a monkey produces the disease, and in that way ft has beep passed through twenty-five animals in succession, without apparent reduc- tion in virulence. If It were merely a mechanical dilution of a chemical poison the effect In the last cases would he very slight at the roost. The germ is too small to be seen by the microscope, though by the use of the ultramlcroscope It has been seen. However, it is so small that it can pass through a fine porcelain filter. By experiment it has been found that the germ may be communicated through the discharges from the nose, and per- haps through the spittle. How It te'Bpread. Infantile paralysis is not a highly contagious disease. It is Quite likely that if five children were occupying beds in a ward, and if the middle one had the disease, none of the others would be affected. That would not be true in the case Of measles, and it probably would not be true of scarlet feverl It has been noticed that epi- demics of the disease are more like- ly-to occur for werrir weathery-when the air is dry, and especially In lo- calities where there are horses. Hill, for example, thus explains the fact that, though among children under five about the same number of boys and girls are affected, among adults most of the patients are men. It Is ^^»-meawhe come moat in contact with the horses. It has been thought that dust assisted in spreading the disease. -Roaenau and others have found that the stable .fly sometimes is the active carrier of the virus, but this is not the only agent. Because the cerm fa so very small tt-nr dtfn> EXCELLENT PROGRAM FOR OPENING DAY Three Noted Artists Will * Appear at Woman's Club. An exceptionally good program has been arranged for the opening meeting of the Woman's club, which will be held next Wednesday after- noon at the clubhouse. Owing to the fact that travel between Europe and this country has been greatly im- paired since the beginning of hostil- ities, Bruno Steindel, whose services the committee had hoped to secure for the afternoon, has been delayed and will not appear, but his place will be well filled by three noted artists, the Steindel brothers, and the com- mittee is assured that nothing will be tost by the exchange. The program will be as follows: Trio, Op. 60...........Tschalkowsky Allegro-Maesteee Theme--Variations Violin Solo- Caprice--Vienowe ... ..... -Kretsler Dance of the Sylphs......Goldblatt Piano Solo-- Fantasie--Impromptu ___. .Chopin Elfentanx ...,.........Sappelatkoff 'Cello Solo-- Kol--Nidrei ...<.....'........Brueh Rondo..................Boccherini Trio, Op. 48........___.Mendelssohn Andante--Scherzo WILMETTE CAR IN COLLISION IN CHICAGO No One Injured When Two North Shore Autos Collide. A serious accident was narrowly averted on Thursday of last week when an automobile,' owned and driven by Mrs. Ralph C. Whitsett, 830 Oakwood avenue, collided with a ma- chine belonging to G. H. Miltord of 6S2 mnrnall avenue, Evanston. The collision occurred at Ashland and North avenues, Chicago. According to reports, Mrs. Whitsett, while endeavoring to avoid another car, turned Into the path of Mr. Mil- terd?»~ear. The Milford car struck the Whitsett car and both were thrown against the curbing. In Mrs. Whitsett'a car were Mrs. Whitsett and her two children; Mrs. Ferd Plate, 1227 Elmwood avenue, and her tbtee children and Mrs. J. J. Durkin of Wilmette. None of them was injured. In the other car were- Mr. Milford and Mr. and Mrs. P. Ross, 710 Hin- map avenue, Evanston. They, also luckily escape «"l"nr. although_their car was badly damaged.

THOMSON AGAINST IT Considers the Passage of The Bill Was Not Required • By Charles M. Thomson. The war tax bill passed the house yesterday. I voted against it I be- lieve any such course as is provided for in that bill le unnecessary at this time, either to meet present needs or to provide against future contingen- cies. The argument advanced as the reason why congress should pass the hill was passed almost entirely on the fact that there was a falling off in the customs revenues of the government for the month of August as compared with that month in 1913, amounting to about ten million dollars, and on the supposition that a falling off In the customs duties to that extent would continue throughout the fiscal year. The need of the treasury for addi- tional revenue, raised by means of further taxation, cannot properly be based on a falling off In customs duties. \Of course, those duties are resulting In less revenue this year than was coming to the treasury from that source last year. That falling off in customs duties Is due to the differ' ence In the tariff rates as laid down in the old law and in the new. That is a simple fact admitted by everybody and which has nothing whatever to do With the relative merits of the two laws. The proponents of the new law pat the income tax law on the statute books for the express purpose of pro- viding revenues that would make up the falling off In the customs duties, represented by the difference in duties specified in the two tariffs laws. So the bare fact that there has been a falling off in customs duties does not demonstrate the need of providing ad- ditional revenue through taxation. That need must be based, if at all, On a falling off In revenues from all sources. Falling Off In Revenue*. Now ss a matter of fact, there was a falling off In government revenues sources, for me momn-of from August, amounting to about 810,500,- 000. We are asked to assume that the revenues are going to continue to show that shrinkage throughout the fiscal year (ending June 30, 1915), ow- ing to the disturbance In Europe, and on that assumption we are urged to THE PARENtS CLUB WILL OPEN SEASON C. D. Heller Will Give Inter- esting Industrialogue on Cotton ^Industry. The Parents- club of the Logan school will one* .the season on Mon- day, October 5. Plans have been per* fected for a miniature county fair which will be given and at which the children will have on exhibition the vegetables, flowers, etc.. which they have raised during the summer. One feature of the fair will bo an old fash- ioned side show, where an will have an opportunity to renew their youth by viewing again the wild man from Borneo, HI Ki; the snake charmer. Zaxa; the human phi cushion, and all the rest of those marvelous exhibi- tions which held us seen bound dur- ing the days ef "Real Sport." An elaborate musical program has also been arranged. The evening meeting of the Parents' club will be held Thursday evening. October 8, at 8 o'clock. Mr. Charles D. Heller, publicity manager of Mar shall Field & Co.. will give a motion picture indnstrlalogue on the growth and manufacture of cotton, beginning with the planting, cultivating, pick- ing, etc.. and showing many opera- tions, including the making or laces. hosiery, etc. Mr. Heller has given this Industrialogue before more than fifty public schools add universities. The talk Is decidedly, interesting, and presents an unusual opportunity to learn how many of the common art!- cles of the home are manufactured from cotton.

Two days ago friends of Mr. Purdy received word thst his engagement to Miss Edith A. Cole of Marshfleld, Wis.. had been announced by the parents of the bride-to-be. Then came the suit for damages filed by Miss Hutchinson. The friends recalled an accident which happened last spring In which Miss Hutchinson, whom Mr. Purdy had known for sev- eral months, suffered a broken hip. The couple went, riding in Mr Purdy's automobile. According to the story told at Highland Park the couple stopped at a roadbouse for dinner, and when on the way home the automobile plunged Into a ditch, throwing out both passengers. Mr. Purdy suffered only slight injuries. After that Miss Hutchinson and Mr. Purdy were not aeen_ togetlifit_Jfflt^o_thJnj_^ulted from the accident until Mr. Purdy a engagement to Miss Cole was an- nounced. WdtOK TRUCK ON FIRS.

Both of the girls' literary societies were launched last week with an in- formal reception for new members and election of officers. The Eliza- bethans held; their meeting at the home of Norma MacMlllan. Their hostess was chosen president; jfijSjttk Nichols, secretary; nJg which will yield $106,000,000 during the year. *- But that assumption is a mere guess, and I do not believe we ought to lay on an additional million in Uses, based on a guess. Why base such ac- tion on our experience as to the effect produced on our revenues by the war In Europe for the first month of that war? Why.not, before taking such a step, give ourselves the benefit of at least two Or three months* experience? The wisdom of such a course la dem- onstrated by the fact that for file ■rat twenty-three days of this month, the falling off in the revenues of the government from all sources, as com- pered with the same period In 1913, amounted to only $1,730,446.19. In other words, the foiling off In rev- enues, amounting to about ten and a half millions in August, will appar- ently be less than $2,500,000 In Sep- tember.

The residents of Wtimone, partic- ularly those< llvlhg on the east side, were awakened from their peaceful siesta last Sunday afternoon by e series of blood curdling yells and war whoops intermingled with an answer- ing chorus of shrlekB end groans. Some thought that the PottaWatemles bad again descended on the north shore end that the horrors of the Ft. Dearborn massacre were about to be reenacted, while others believed the Allies had finally succeeded In turning gjjiGimiM' left wins. But It WSS learned, upon investigation, that neither was the case. It was only a football game between the Humbott Park Tigers of Chicago and the Archangel Athletic club.
