Mt. Pleasant found itself one of the
dozen or more cities in Michigan in
which the dread disease had struck
when George McGregor, 17, of Negau-,
seaman at Central Michigan; Ju"f ""!' , . ,.
.1 Pvt. Underwood is the son ot
' and* Mrs. John Underwood and
nee, a
College, was afflicted. He was iso
lated in the Central Michigan Community Hospital Friday, August 4, and
on Wednesday of last week removed
to the Great Lakes Naval hospital, after physicians and county health authorities had diagnosed his case. He
is reported as having,a very slight attack with only slight indication of
paralysis.
As a precaution against an epidemic
of polio, seamen at Central Michigan
College were placed on restriction and
all recreation places in Mt. Pleasant
declared out of bounds. The order
was released Tuesday of last week by
Lieutenant M. R. Kelso, commandant
at the school, upon the advice ot Lieutenant Commander Leland Brown,
medical officer at the college. Brown
also ordered the college swimming
pool closed.
Leo Mulholland, acting City Manager of Mt. Pleasant, ordered the Municipal swimming pool at Island Park
closed and cautioned all residents
about limiting activities and against
visiting crowded areas until the state
epidemic subsides.
No other cases have been reported
in Isabella county and none have been
reported in Clare county, but local
county health officials advise that
every precaution be taken here to
avert the possibility of the disease
spreading to this area.
Eight rules for the prevention of infantile paralysis have been released
by the state health board. They are:
1—Avoid overtiriug and extreme
fatigue.
2—Avoid chilling, such as plunging
into cold water for a swim.
3—Pay careful attention to personal
cleanliness.
4—Keep flies away from food.
5—Do not swim in polluted water.
6—Keep community sanitation at a
high level.
7—Keep little children out of
crowds and limit number of people
they comeTn contact with.
8—Do not delay calling a physician
if any of the following symptoms occur: vomiting, diarrhea, fever, stiffness in the neck or back, constipation,
or any sign of cold.
A warning against removing tonsils
during the polio season was sent to
all health officers in the'state early in
August by Dr. DeKleine. This message stated, "The presence of polio
myelitis (infantile paralysis) cases in
Michigan raises the question of the
danger of the removal of tonsils during the polio season. There is very
suggestive evidence To indicate that
the removal of tonsils may predispose
children to an attack of poliomyelitis.
This evidence furthermore suggests
that the type of poliomyelitis most
commonly observed in tonsillectom-
ized children is of a severe type.
Eighty-two cases of poliomyelitis occurred in Michigan during July, compared with eleven cases in July, 1943.
Ordinarily poliomyelitis increases during the summer months reaching its
peak in September.

With an infantile paralysis epidemic

Alber to Head State
Organizations
The most disastrous foi^est fire in
this area in many years raged for
twelve hours Sunday and swept nearly
half a section of the W. C. Cornwell
Ranch and adjoining George Winn
farm, burning within forty feet of the
Winn farm home and buildings before
being brought under control late iu
the day.
The Are, which is thought to have
started from a firebrand from a smaller fire extinguished on the Cornwell
Ranch Saturday, was discovered on
Section 8, Arthur township, at 9:30
o'clock Sunday morning, and was soon
out of control.
The Clare Fire Department, Glare
Auxiliary Fire Department (a volun-
teer fire-fighting unit equipped with
mobile forest fire equipment), Gus
Fnehr, of Gladwin, District Supervisor
of the State Department of Conservation, Clare County Conservation officer Wayne Tenuant and Fire Warden
Earl Skinner, of Harrison, other conservation officers and neighbors battled the sweeping flames from 9:30
Sunday morning-until 9:30 Sunday
evening, fighting in smoke so dense
they could hardly see a foot ahead of
i them and many times risking their
lives, before the fire was brought under control after burning over be*
tween 250 and 300 acres of land.
The Conservation Department's caterpillar tractor and plow and the Corn-
well Ford tractor and plow were
pressed into service, along with the
equipment of the two fire departments
and conservation department and
every available bucket and shovel on
the ranch and in the neighborhood, in
an effort to check the raging flames.
Mrs. W. C. Cornwell and Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Carter wish to thank each
and every person who fought so val-
liantly to bring the fire under control
and Mr. Carter said iu an interview
this week that words could not express their gratitude to those who
risked their lives and fought so long
on one of the hottest days of the summer to preserve the wildlife and property threatened by the fire.
water. Two other youths joined in the
rescue attempt and, when unsuccessful, called to Glen Emmons and Henry
Young, of Lansing, who were fishing
in another part of the pit.
Young and Emmons recovered the
youth's body and applied artificial respiration until the Lansing Fire Department inhalator squad arrived, but all
attempts to revive the boy failed.
Dallas, who lived in Farwell and
attended school there two years ago,
is survived by his mother, Mrs. May
Thorntgn, and a sister, Mrs. May Kay-
eer, both of Lansing; and four brothers, Pvt. Wesley Deforest Thornton,
of Camp Wolters, Texas, Pvt. Hazen
C. Thornton, in China, Dexter Thornton, of Lansing, and Cecil Thornton,
of Louisville, Ky.

The parishoners of St. Cecilia's ended forty hours of continuous prayer,
Tuesday evening, August 15th.
"Man was created a little less than
the angels," and someone said that
the closing ceremony of the Forty-
Hours of prayer at St. Cecilia's offered
a scene in dignity end beauty that
touched the celestial.
Forty-Hours of continuous prayer is
a devotion commemorating the forty
hours during which the Sacred Body
of Jesus was in the sepulchre. It or
iginated at Milan, about the year 1534.
The faithful of St. Cecilia's dedicated
their prayers to the nation-wide intentions of "Making America Worthy
of God's Favor," and the protection
of our boys and girls in the service.
The parish service flag now has forty-
seven blue stars- and one gold star
The closing ceremonies of this age-
old devotion were profoundly impreS'
sive. Fr. John Pons, a former pastor
of St. Cecilia's preached the sermon.
Fr. Joseph Ciesluk, of the Catholic
University, Washington, D. C, directed the choir. Fr. Gordon Grant, of
Rosebush, played the organ. The officers of Benediction were, Fr. Walter
Grill, of Greenville, Celebrant, Fr. Joseph Walen, of Loyola University, of
Chicago, Deacon, and Fr. O'Toole, assistant -pastor of St. James, Bay City,
sub-deacon.
Sixteen Priests in Procession
The Litany of the Saints was chanted by the priests and the colorful,
closing procession was formed. Altar
boys carrying candles and wearing
capes of the traditional papal colors,
white and gold led the procession.
Seventeen little girls in bridal costume, each carrying a bouquet of flower- followed, then the priests, singing
the thirteenth Century Hymn, "Pange
Lingua Glorlosi," and finally, moving
with majestic slowness the golden
vested officers of Benediction raising
aloft the Monstrance preceded by two
censor-bearers—the very ancient symbol of the prayers of mankind ascending to the throne of God.
Other priests present were, Fr. Flan-
nery, Fr Hart, Fr. Schneider, Fr. Zas-
kowski, Fr. Amman, Fr. Ostrowski,
Fr. Farrell, Fr. Fox and Fr. Daniel
Izzo, of St. Andrew's Cathedral, Grand
Rapids, Michigan.
Edgar A. Born, of Cadillac, the father of Dr. G. C. Born, of Clare, is in aj
serious condition in the Communityl
Hospital, at Mt. Pleasant, since suffer-J
ing severe injuries in a fall from the
roof of the Farwell post-office building
at 6:00 o'clock Thursday evening of
hist week.
Mr. Borri went to the post-office
building, where one of his crews was
roofing the building, and in some way
fell from the top rung of a ladder they
were using. He was rushed to the
offices of his sou here, where X-ray
examination revealed him to be suffering a fractured pelvis and dislocated
left shoulder.
He was taken to the Community
Hospital for X-ray examination and
treatment and his condition has been
such that it has not been advisable
to make -further X-rays to determine
other apparent injuries.
Mr. Born has done considerable
work as a roofing contractor in, Clare
and vicinity and friends here wish
for a speedy recovery.

Underwood is the son ot ' and* Mrs. John Underwood and nee, a College, was afflicted. He was iso lated in the Central Michigan Community Hospital Friday, August 4, and on Wednesday of last week removed to the Great Lakes Naval hospital, after physicians and county health authorities had diagnosed his case. He is reported as having,a very slight attack with only slight indication of paralysis. As a precaution against an epidemic of polio, seamen at Central Michigan College were placed on restriction and all recreation places in Mt. Pleasant declared out of bounds. The order was released Tuesday of last week by Lieutenant M. R. Kelso, commandant at the school, upon the advice ot Lieutenant Commander Leland Brown, medical officer at the college. Brown also ordered the college swimming pool closed. Leo Mulholland, acting City Manager of Mt. Pleasant, ordered the Municipal swimming pool at Island Park closed and cautioned all residents about limiting activities and against visiting crowded areas until the state epidemic subsides. No other cases have been reported in Isabella county and none have been reported in Clare county, but local county health officials advise that every precaution be taken here to avert the possibility of the disease spreading to this area. Eight rules for the prevention of infantile paralysis have been released by the state health board. They are: 1—Avoid overtiriug and extreme fatigue. 2—Avoid chilling, such as plunging into cold water for a swim. 3—Pay careful attention to personal cleanliness. 4—Keep flies away from food. 5—Do not swim in polluted water. 6—Keep community sanitation at a high level. 7—Keep little children out of crowds and limit number of people they comeTn contact with. 8—Do not delay calling a physician if any of the following symptoms occur: vomiting, diarrhea, fever, stiffness in the neck or back, constipation, or any sign of cold. A warning against removing tonsils during the polio season was sent to all health officers in the'state early in August by Dr. DeKleine. This message stated, "The presence of polio myelitis (infantile paralysis) cases in Michigan raises the question of the danger of the removal of tonsils during the polio season. There is very suggestive evidence To indicate that the removal of tonsils may predispose children to an attack of poliomyelitis. This evidence furthermore suggests that the type of poliomyelitis most commonly observed in tonsillectom- ized children is of a severe type. Eighty-two cases of poliomyelitis occurred in Michigan during July, compared with eleven cases in July, 1943. Ordinarily poliomyelitis increases during the summer months reaching its peak in September. (Contlnuea on Page Ten) gravel pit southwest of that city.

Gray and Mrs. Edna Alber to Head State Organizations The most disastrous foi^est fire in this area in many years raged for twelve hours Sunday and swept nearly half a section of the W. C. Cornwell Ranch and adjoining George Winn farm, burning within forty feet of the Winn farm home and buildings before being brought under control late iu the day. The Are, which is thought to have started from a firebrand from a smaller fire extinguished on the Cornwell Ranch Saturday, was discovered on Section 8, Arthur township, at 9:30 o'clock Sunday morning, and was soon out of control. The Clare Fire Department, Glare Auxiliary Fire Department (a volun- teer fire-fighting unit equipped with mobile forest fire equipment), Gus Fnehr, of Gladwin, District Supervisor of the State Department of Conservation, Clare County Conservation officer Wayne Tenuant and Fire Warden Earl Skinner, of Harrison, other conservation officers and neighbors battled the sweeping flames from 9:30 Sunday morning-until 9:30 Sunday evening, fighting in smoke so dense they could hardly see a foot ahead of i them and many times risking their lives, before the fire was brought under control after burning over be* tween 250 and 300 acres of land. The Conservation Department's caterpillar tractor and plow and the Corn- well Ford tractor and plow were pressed into service, along with the equipment of the two fire departments and conservation department and every available bucket and shovel on the ranch and in the neighborhood, in an effort to check the raging flames. Mrs. W. C. Cornwell and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Carter wish to thank each and every person who fought so val- liantly to bring the fire under control and Mr. Carter said iu an interview this week that words could not express their gratitude to those who risked their lives and fought so long on one of the hottest days of the summer to preserve the wildlife and property threatened by the fire. water. Two other youths joined in the rescue attempt and, when unsuccessful, called to Glen Emmons and Henry Young, of Lansing, who were fishing in another part of the pit. Young and Emmons recovered the youth's body and applied artificial respiration until the Lansing Fire Department inhalator squad arrived, but all attempts to revive the boy failed. Dallas, who lived in Farwell and attended school there two years ago, is survived by his mother, Mrs. May Thorntgn, and a sister, Mrs. May Kay- eer, both of Lansing; and four brothers, Pvt. Wesley Deforest Thornton, of Camp Wolters, Texas, Pvt. Hazen C. Thornton, in China, Dexter Thornton, of Lansing, and Cecil Thornton, of Louisville, Ky.
