His name is POLIO, and she singled out the victim and the daughter ot friends, Mr. and Mrs. Gerbert Hairston" as evidence ot the curative power oJ,,J[ou and Dr. March ot Dimes. She told us the story of little seven-year-old Barbara Hairston of Elm Street in Rutherford, New Jersey who was struck down suddenly one Summer by Polio. The National Foimdation of Infantile Paralysis came to her rescue, and she was given the best of treatments at the Burgen County Convalescent Center, Polio which can strike anywhere, anytime, did not win that battle, but left its mark that can be seen when little Bobby limps similingly to meet you. Born July 13, 1918 under the Cancer sign was our personality this week of 615 Dupree Street who is a clerk in the Credit division of the Ordinary De- partment of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, her birthplace is Rutherford, MISS G^EVA CHASE New Jersey, a daughter of Mrs. Frank Chase and the late Mrs. I^avena Chase. Geneva was one of four girls; Madeline who is supervisor in a corset factory back home; and Pauline who is inspector in the Becton-Dickson Medical Supply Company there; and Mrs. Clara Baylor who also works at the corset factory. Sparkling and bubbling over with smiles and a northern ac cent, Miss Chase told us of going to public schools in Rutherford where she got her business training at Rutherford High School. She also finished beauty culture in Newark at Mrs. Stewart’s Beauty School. Thereafter she worked in that field for four years. Her visit to her cousin, Mrs. Nell Goodloe Wilson, stopped her in Durham and she’s i>een here since she drank some of this flourideless North Carolina water. She intended to stay a few days and they merged into years when she began to work in a beauty shop here which lasted a year and a half. In April, 1950, North Carolina Mutual sent for her and she started punching the clock as an addressograph operator. February, 1951 she was promoted to fier present position. She is a very eligible bachelor, if that’s what you call unmarried young women. Her hobbies are working with flowers, keeping a scrap book pertaining to her company (NCM), and “I crochet a little and that’s about all.’” She likes basketball and the movies, but foot ball “only occasionally.” I know most of the other sports, she as- certs. I don’t have any embarrassing moments that are printable and there have been no high spots in my life. “I’m not engaged and 1 have no comment on the subject of boys and men or politics,” she answered further with a glint in her eyes and a whisper of un- certainity. She joined the Mount Arrat Baptist Church in Rutherford, New Jersey and is now a Watch Care member of the White Rock Baptist Church here.—(Adv.) n Pictured above is Corporal Willard Perry, son of Mn.

By WILMA JOHNS MONTGOMEBT (A Local Mother) As important as the fi nancial resources of the foundation were in contri buting to Kenneth’s recov ery, I believe the entire personnel of the organi zation did also a job in hu man relations with parents and children that should surely give all of us in America a greater ap preciation for this great land, and a greater con fidence in the goodness of the people, the humble people, who make up this land. At times when I was despondent and almost hy sterical with agony, I have been cheered by the kind words, the understanding gesture which I believe is more than the professional duty of personnel in con valescent center which brought'my Kenneth back to me. How can I express sufficient gratitude for the many of’ you people who helped my boy come back to me. It's March of Dimes time SFONSORCD BY Coca-Cola Bottling Company.

Feature Of The Month A ^OTHER’S PERSONAL TESTIMONIAL ly WILMA JOHNS MONTGOMEBT —^Datbam— ■ ' First of al), I should like to say that, as a mother whose 6 Vi year old son spent eight months in hospitals recovering from the effects of polio, I can never adequately express my appreciation. p THANKS TO YOU HE’S PLAYINO AGAIN As I watch him at play today, running around like other normal boys his age, I am reminded of the awful times that both of us went through in those dark days in 1948 when Kenneth was more courageous than I. The National Founda tion for Infantile Paralysis deserves the help of all Am«r- icans, for I can think of no more American, no more demo cratic, no more humane organization that the Foundation which puts human needs above all else. As one of millions of American mothers who have experienced the agony of the uncertainties which accompany the cases of polio-stricken children, I am pleased to take this opportimlty to have en dorsed this drive and to offer this personal testimonial that through the work of the Foundation, my boy and I enjoy to day the blessings of a free America.
