MEASLES HARD ON CHILDREN

Sir: 1 wish to call attention to th; _,i statement made in your paper o! Deumbcr 13th regarding the control or measles. It is an old idea and a. false one that children resist measles better than adults. Measles ‘are very hard on children, especially those under five years of age. ‘The death rate is very much higher under this age. For example, in Canada. in 1926 you fl-equqntly 59g cases of what. is there were- 460 deaths from measles called migraine or one-sideci head- and 382 of these were children of ache, The individual will enjoy good four years of age and under. Measles weeks, or even seems to break down the child’s re- sistance to many other infectious diseases. It is very commonly observed tl-at a child takes scarlet fever, chicken pa», diphtheria. and colds following measles. Broncho pneumonia 1S i1 coluplication always to be guard- ed against. Measles also predisposss to tuberculosis, - It is therefore very essential i118! parents prcvcrlt children tinder rive

It is recorded of Sir Roger de ' Coveriy, that genial character whom Addison created to symbolize the virtues of the English squire at his best, that following the laudable custom of his ancestors he always kept open house at Christmas. Ills practice. says the author. was to klll eight fat hogs for this season, to’ deal about his chines very liberally.‘ amongst hlsneighbors. and in par- ticular to send a string of hogs‘- puddings with a pack of cards to ev- ery pour family in his parish. Sir Roger was a "Santa Pal" before the word was ever ‘mined or the idea, promulgated in a newspaper. "I have oft/en thought." he is reported as say- ‘i ing, “it happens very wcll that‘ Christznsls should fail out in the. lmlddle of Winter.
