New Dimes Targets
The theme selected for the
New March of Dimes in January
is a simple, direct statement.;
Prevent Crippling Disease! Yet
it says a number of things not
always apparent to the average
American.
Most of us are barely consi-
ous of the crippled child or
adult. We see a boy dragging
.along a braced leg trying to
keep up with his playmates. The
little girl on crutches or the
man in a wheel chair are us
ually taken for granted as an
unchanging way of life.
Crippling has many causes.
The New March of Dimes singles
out three major fields of crip¬
pling disease for a forntal at¬
tack. These are birth defects,
arthritis and polio. Here is the
size of the problem:
Every year a quarter of a
million infants - 685 a day -
are born with birth defects. At
least half of them face a life¬
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, happiness and health to you-
To each of you dear readers so true. And to the won¬
der advertisers so loyal
We wish you a New Year, ever so royal!
To the county sheriff and all his victims
To the tax appraisers—(we wonder who picked ’em!)
And the ordinary and his cute littlfe pigs
And ail the club women—even those with wigs!
And a Happy New Year to our superior court clerk
And the inquiring public—who drve us beserk!
To our county agent—he’s oh so slim!
And the school superintendent—he tries to be trim.
Best wishes to all the Post Office staff
And the welfare director, who so seldom will laugh!
And to the entire crew of the next door cafe
And that girl upstairs—with that certain sashay!
A very happy New Year to the politicians so fine—
And especially those with paid announcements divine!
To the folks who say—‘1 saw it in The Times”
May all the good things this year—be thine!
(This pome was writ to bring you joy, By nobody else,
but our sick copy-boy.)

time of serious chronic illness
and disability.
Upwards of 11 million people
in the United States alone are
affected by arthritis and rheu¬
matism. Apart from the physi¬
cal pain, the economic loss to
the nation tops $1.5 million an¬
nually.
In polio The National Founda¬
tion continues its aid to over
50,000 patients, most of them
paralyzed in previous years. The
past year added many to the
aid roster. The need for
braces, crutches and wheel
to say nothing of iron
rocking bed and other re¬
aids, went on without

March of Dimes by giving

To the Editor:
Your splendid editorial, THE
AMBASSADOR FROM DADE,
needs no endorsement, but it
certainly has mine! This is the
type of coinage that ought to be
circulated more freely, and fre¬
quently, in the market of
human relations. Out public
servants are often abused by
uninformed people whose only
sense of mission is to be critical.
How wholesomely refreshing,
and how well-deserved was this
editorial.
May I pat you on the back for
this pat on the back.
Sincerely yours.
