She was transferred from the Broadlawns General hospital in Des Moines to the Guthrie county hosital in Guthrie Center. Her homecoming was not just an ordinary trip from Des Moines. This trip was her return after 74 days spent in the Des Moines hospital. Most of the time she has had a constant companion--an iron lung.

At first she spent Tall of her time in the iron lung but more recently the lung has just stood by in case she needed it.

and Mrs. Grove at supper Thursday honoring Mrs. Grove's birthday. Friday evening Mr. and Mrs.

Donald Brown and Donna honored Mrs. Grove at a birthday dinner. Others sharing the courtesy were Mr. Grove and Mr. and Mrs.

Lester Pangborn. It's not a very pleasant good looking companion but tc Mrs. Webber it has meant the difference between coming home to her family or not com ing back at all. Her trip home was made in an ambulance manned friendly Yellow Cab drivers and her special nurse, Miss Donna Woodhouse, was her companion on the trip. The in evitable iron lung followed immediately behind the bulance in a truck.

On August 30 Mrs. Webber contracted polio and was taken to Broadlawns for treatment. Five days before Mrs. Webber took ill the Webber's six-year- old daughter. Shirley, had suffered polio and was being treated at Raymond Blank Memorial hosital in Des Moines.

There was a shortage of help at Blank and Mrs. Webber offered her Cervices in the hospital so she could be near Shirley and so she could help out in the hospital. Later Shirley was transferred to Broadlawns too and thev started their convalescent period together, Shirley had bnlbar type polio and was released from the hospital on October 31 as cured. Her mother was not so lucky. Mrs Webber had the paralytic type polio and is still paralized from the chest on down.

However, she has shown much improvement and it was decide that she would be better off closer home. About two weeks ago wheels were put in motion for her transfer. Local officers of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis were contacted. Mrs. S.

Emelie Ritter, administrator of the Guthrie county hospital, was asked if arrangements could be made to handle Mrs. Webber and doctors and nurses held conferences. Finally arrangements were completed and the transfer was made. Miss Woodhouse will stay with Mrs. Webber for some time while the regular staff of nurses at the Guthrie county hospital learn the routine.

Hot packs and physio therapy treatments must be continued and the iron lung may have to be used from time to time. The Webbers were protected by insurance and the treatment and care of both Mrs. Webber and Shirley has been paid for by the insurance. However, the iron lung is the property of the March of Dimes as is the "rocking bed' in which she spends her time. Both are furnished at no cost to the patient or the insurance company.

While in Broadlawns Mrs. Webber learned to assemble and finish billfolds and other leather devices. Friends have heard of her newly acquired talents and she has received several orders for her products. She has no idle moments now since she is working feverishly to fill her orders. Mrs.

Webber and Shirley were two of more than 30 polio cases in Guthrie county this iummer and fall, according to Kenneth Robinson, chairman of the Guthrie county chapter of National Foundation for Infantile P-aralysis. Many of the cases were light, Robinson added, and all but a few have to their homes. Unlike the Webbers, several of the patients had no in surance and several had hospital-type policies that did not pay the entire cost of treatment. In these cases local March of Dimes has assumed the responsibility of paying the bills. Glenn McCall, treasurer of the local March of Dimes organi zation, stated today that the local treasury has spent all its money and many bills are unpaid.

Monday Robinson made application to the emergency fund of the National Foundation for money to cover the outstanding accounts. The annual March of Dimes drive will be held in Janulary again this year and Robinson and McCall joined in reminding the people of Guthrie county that the largest amount of money ever raised here will be needed if all post-polio cases are to receive necessary aid.
