The director began his fantastic pep talk, To be cut short by a raging door knock, In came newsmen, photographers, papermen galore, Just to be kicked out of the Big Old Stage Door. The audience was anxious to come in, And out came a man to announce, "The show will begin." The orchestra was small, but quite a band, And at the end it got a fine hand, The actors were allowed to have one final smoke, And some of them just had a coke. Well to.

The parotid-glands, which are located below and in front of the ears, are the chief ones affected. Mumps is caused when these glands are invaded by a virus. And it is spread almost entirely by direct contact with a person who is infected. The virus is present in the saliva and in the secretions of the nose. Everybody knows what a person with the mumps looks like: there is a swelling about the ears and the jaws.

This is often the firsts recognizable symptom of the disease, There may also be a sudden rise in temperature to between 104 and 105 degrees and headache and vomiting. The swelling appears first on one side and then the other. Mumps is primarily a disease of children and young adults, though in rare cases it occurs in adults. Children usually get it between the -ages-of-five-and fifteenand especially between the ages of seven and nine. In almost all cases, after a person has had one attack of mumps that involved the salivary glands on both sides of the face," he is i une against the disease.

There is no serum or injection developed yet which can produce permanent immunity to mumps. Among children, mumps is considered to be a harmless TiseaSeiriris detected earl; "7L JZ SZ and if there is ninnfir troat. ment.
