TWO POLIO DEATHS AT ARTHUR, ILL.
Arthur, Ill. — Infantile paralysis has claimed the lives of two children in this community. Mary Miller, two year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Obie Miller, died July 27 and funeral services were held here July 29. Willis Glen, 12, son of Mrs. Andy O. Diener also succumbed to the disease.
Eight other persons in the Amish Mennonite community here, most of them children, have contracted polio this season. Some have recovered.
