And another advantage in shopping at home is the courte¬ ous service you get at local stores.

Tommy Davey was stricken with paralytic polio when he was 14 months old. That was over four years ago. Arms, legs, chest muscles, all paralyzed. His earliest memory is the iron lung and the world seen through a mirror. What he sees is the white, hushed, institutional world of the hospital. But here he seems to be looking ac you — at me — at all of us. He seems to be reminding us that polio is a costly crippler still. Tommy is one of 50,000 polio patients receivin': March of Dimes aid. Your help in the past literally kepi him alive. Your help also enabled scientists to develop weapons against polio, like the Salk vaccine and advanced rehabilitation techniques.
