Facts Given by Chairmen of Rheumatic Fever Campaign; Contributions Urged Rheumatic fever is a dread dis-ease because it is the second greatest fatal disease of children between the ages of five and nine and because the greatest number of cases, according to population occur in the New England, and Rocky Mountain States. The United States Childrens' bureau reported several months ago that Utah with a rate of 22.4 per 100,000 population had the highest rheumatic fever death rate in the country. The rate was said to be nearly twice the nation-al average and four times that of the lowest state, Vermont. Rheumatic fever seems to fol-low a streptoccocus infection of the upper respiratory tract. Now since 60 per cent of accompany-ing strep throats are severe en-ough to make the patient seek a physicians advice it is now poss-ible to prevent 60 per cent of the rheumatic fever cases. ci-- rents might well check with i.iieir family doctor when a child suffers a severe sore throat. Because of the large number of cases in Utah county, the Rheu-matic Fever Foundation of Utah County ha purchased a rest home located in Provo across the high-way west of the Utah Valley hos-pital. Upon recommendation of your local physician any needy child will be admitted. This home has been made possible through the efforts of your County com-mittee and a drive each year will maintain this rest home. We hope later for some State aid. Bountiful has the only other rest home in Utah. The Provo Business and Pro-fessional Women are sponsoring a public meeting Tuesday, Feb. 14, at 8:00 p.m. at the South Court room of the County Building. The purpose of this meeting will be to further the education of parents in preventing and mora readily recognizing the symptoms of this disease. The speakers at this meeting will be Dr. Eugene Smith of Og-den who operates and maintains a Rheumatic Fever Clinic, and Dr. John W. Spies, newly app- - , olnted commissioner of the State f Department of Health will also be present. In this drive for funds for Rheumatic Fever all you contrib-ute stays in Utah county for the rest home, for diagnosis and pre-ventive education. Thank you for your contribu-tion.
