\F J tag, b NEVADA CITY NUGGET Memorial Hall, Grass Valley, Saturday Evening, January 30, 1937 VERY YEAR infantile paralysis cripples hundreds of children. Rich and poor the dread disease, makes no distinc: tion, but in the families of the poor the visitation of this scourge is devastation beyond description. The struggle for food for the other children must go on regardless of what happens to the crippled child. A roof, clothing and\food must be prvided whether the afflicted child dies or lives to be a hopeless cripple. The President of the United States, himself one of the casualties in this never-ending war upon infantile paralysis, his instituted the ‘President's Birthday Ball,’’ which this years fails on January 30, next Saturday evening, at which all generous and civic minded people are given an opportunity to contribute toward the curing and alleviation of the suffering little children due to this plague.

Under the arrangement made with the national committee 70 per cent of the receipts of the ball go for the benefit of the local victims of the infaritile paralysis. Thirty per cent goes:to the endowment of Warm Springs, Georgia; where hundreds of “ little children, suffering from the disease are treated. This year the President's Birthday Ball is more, far more, than a general community dance in Memorial Hall, Grass Valley. There will be an excellent program preceding the ball, which gives anyone, whether he enjoys dancing or not, his money’s worth. All the forces which have made Nevada County noted for its charity, its kindness, its thoughtful generosity for those in want, in sickness or bereavement are mustering for this great annual event.
