ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS
OF POLIO PRESENTS
UNUSUAL PROBLEMS
Minneapolis, Minn.—Accurate
diagnosis of non-paralytic polio
myelitis presents a challenging
and important problem, even
though the medical staff of the
Sister Elizabeth Kenny Founda
tion has diagnosed and treated
thousands of cases of the disease.
The patient with paralytic polio
can be accurately diagnosed, but
non-paralytic polio resembles
very closely a great number of
other diseases which are almost
impossible to distinguish from
polio. One of Sister Kenny’s con
tributions to medical science per
tained to early recognition of
symptoms and necessity of early
treatment.
Perfecting of a diagnostic test
for polio is a. tremendous prob
lem, because polio viruses are
elusive ' things. They are too
small to be seen with the ordi
nary microscope and require liv
ing tissue for growth. The prob
lem is further complicated by the
fact that polio is not just a one
virus disease, but a disease
caused by different viruses.
As a result of tests carried out
on patients referred to Kenny
treatment centers with suspected
polio, a number of unusual infec
tions of the central nervous sys
tem were uncovered. The same
complicated laboratory • tests
would seem to indicate that many
of these other diseases are indis
tinguishable from polio by the or
dinary techniques available to
doctors.
These diseases have in common
the same polio symptoms of fever,
headache, stiff neck and an in
crease in the number of white
blood cells in the spinal fluid of
patients.

trade exhibition at Radio Center
in Charlotte.
The exhibition, to be held during
Thanksgiving week, will be devot
ed entirely to industries and insti
tutions located in North and South
Carolina.
Primarily, the “Made In Caroli
nas” show is designed to acquaint
the public with the wide variety
of products manufactured in the
two states, and the many service
institutions which have home offi
ces here.
“We believe this ‘Made In Caro
linas’ show is long overdue,” said
Harry Dee Moore, Director of Pu
blicity and Special Events for
Radio Center.
“Much has been written about
' the industrial expansion of our
j Twin States,” he said, “but little
ihas been done to let the people
actually see it for themselves, ex
cept for isolated efforts by indivi
dual manufacturers.”
"The ‘Made In Carolinas’ show
will attempt to bring a sample of
all the wares and services of the
j Carolinas under one roof. Even our
| smallest companies will have an
I opportunity to participate,” he add
ed.
Display booths in the “Made In
Carolinas” exhibition are available
to every type of company which is
engaged in acceptable enterprise
and is located in the Carolinas.
Detailed information may be ob
tained from Radio Center, 3229 S.
Boulevard, Charlotte, by sending

DOGS
By:
FARLEY MANNING
DENTAL CARE
So you “brush your teeth twice
a day and see your dentist at least
twice a year”. Naturally, you do if
you want to retain that pearly
white grin and avoid the ill health
that so often accompanies neglect
ed teeth.
But what about your dog. Maybe
his grin isn’t so important but his
health certainly is and if you want
him to stay sleek and happy you
should pay careful attention to his
teeth and mouth.
A dog’s teeth are unlike a
human’s. They don’t have pulp and
nerves and therefore are not sus
ceptible to cavities. If a dog
breaks a tooth it does not decay
but wears smooth and there is no
necessity for having it capped or
crowned. But, if the tooth breaks
below the gum line then he re
quires immediate professional
care.
Although his teeth are not so
vulnerable as his master’s, a dog’s
mouth should be inspected regular
ly. If there is any objectional odor
the mouth may be rinsed with a
weak antiseptic solution applied
with a soft, small tooth brush or
a swab of cotton. All particles of
food which may become lodged be
tween the dog’s front teeth can be
removed, since such matter will
ferment rapidly. Not only can it
cause a bad case of halitosis but
it may also result in severe attacks
of sore gums, pyorrhea and the
premature loss of teeth.

Color Scheme
“Go ahead and use colors you
like when color-styling the ex
terior of your home, but be prac
tical about it, too,” advises John
Abbate, New York color stylist
and interior decorator. “Don’t be
afraid of your color tastes but
choose hues which contrast pleas
ingly or become an integral part
of surroundings.”
Abbate illustrates his thinking
with a color scheme using compli
mentary colors to contrast against
an urban background where there
are no trees, shrubs, or natural
beauty.
“A colorful scheme is needed in
the city,” he says. “Suppose you
choose a medium-gray asphalt
shingle roof for a start. It’s prac
tical, long-wearing, and won’t
show soot and dirt. It’s smart, too.
Gay French blue siding would be
a good complement, with white
for window surrounds, shutters,
and eaves trim. Then use bold
and bright Chinese red to accent
the front door.
“But while this might be smart
in the city, it would probably look
like a ‘carnival poster’ in the
country. Country color schemes
are better if subdued, allowing
the house to merge with its back
ground.
You might begin with a deep
green asphalt roof, move to pale
green for siding, continue with
pale citron yellow window and
eaves trim, white shutters and
flower boxes, and then use an ap
ple green front door.
“Of course,” he cautions, “fac
tors like architectural style, cli
mate, and the materials selected
for the exterior should be consid
ered, but reflect your own tastes
as much as other factors will allow.
more than 100 feet are the key
structural factors. The effect is like
fingers reaching for the sky, while
the warmth and natural beauty of
the wood further enhances the in
spirational atmosphere.
Standard sizes of Southern Pine
lumber now can be glued together
and shaped into arches of such si
ze that church architects are now
free to design structures of a style
hitherto impossible. A Southern Pi
ne Association survey reveals that
at the present time, glued laminat
ed Southern Pine lumber is the
basic material of at least 298 ch
urches completed this year or pre
sently under construction.
Farmers own 39 percent of for
est producing acreage in the South
and the material best suited to
their own building needs grows in
their own back yard.
Southern Pine is the predomina
nt species on these farm wood
lots, and farmers have found it par
ticularly well suited for all types
of farm structure 'from fenses to
barns.
In its Technical Bulletin No. 408,
the US Department of Agriculture
ranks Southern Pine ahead of oth
er wood species in nailholding and
bending strength, hardness and to
ughness. These are qualities need
ed most in lumber for farm build
ings. and they are being put to
good use in a variety of ways.
What’s more, Southern Pine is
recognized as the most suitable
species where a treatment is re
quired because of the ease with
which it takes the preservative.
This is of value to farm ahwsreoer
using the economical pole frame
type of construction, involving tr
eated Southern Pine poles.

NEW "GERM-FIGHTER”
Pretty Peggy Smith of Chicago
was first person to try the new
est thing in oral hygiene, an ac
tively antiseptic toothbrush which
remains germ-resistant for up to
four months in use.
Three times a day for two i
weeks Peggy brushed her teeth
with the new “Germ-Fighter.”
then took it to the Dr. West lab
oratories for tests to determine
whether or not the brush had re
tained its anti-bacterial quali
ties. Chemical Engineer Kedzie
Teller placed Peggy’s brush on a
slide with bacteria cultures. The
following day she looked at the
brush head on a bacteria colony
counter.
There she saw scientific proof
(lower photo) that the “Germ
Fighter” was effective. Around
the bristles was a wide, clear,
entirely germ-free area due to
the action of the anti-bacterial
agents with which the brush is
impregnated. (This is shown in
the actual, unretouched photo.)
The new toothbrush can be seen
at local stores.
Air Conditioning Added
Look Magazia^
“Almost Inevitable” is what central air conditioning for hornet
Is called by Look magazine, which says year-round, combined cooling
and heating systems are spearheading the advance in climate control.
The magazine points out that new all-season units not only cool or
heat but control moisture content and circulate and clean the air.
As an example of economical “add-on” air conditioning, in which
heating can be installed initially and cooling added later, the maga
zine shows a Coleman system, above, with air blender-outlet and duct,
top left, furnace with cooling coil, center, and outdoor condensing
unit, right. Cost of central air conditioning can be financed over
three years or tacked on to a long-term mortgage, Look points out.
