Some of the residents of Saco are
entering protests against the special
improvement district about to be
created in that city. Saco has al
ways had very poor water supply

that enterprising little city would
welcome any kind of system that
would give them good water and
plenty OF it.
There has been a number of COM
plants registered against the
crossing over the irrigation ditch
near the Coburn home south of town
and at several times there has been
accidents narrowly averted. The
embankment thrown up by workmen
when the ditch was made makes it
impossible for parties coming from
opposite directions to see each other.
Al1ttle work in removing a portion
of the embankment would eliminate
all possibilities of an accident.

The present General Scott is reported to have said
that this country would army Of least 100000
men in the event of war and that short of universal

means by the pressure Of the cancer
masses interfering with swallowing

"The ultimate cause OF cancer" de-
clares DR.. Kelly, the reason why
these cells take on this rtotous devel-

We only know this, that any chronic

individual to another! Cancer Is al
SO not directly Unbeatable, although
the predisposition may be inherited.
In other words there may, be AN in.

the seeds are dropped, as we drop
into prepared ground, cancer may re-

The first step toward the proper
treatment Of cancer" continued DR..
Kelly, lis the early. recognition OF the
disease and the reporting to a compe-
tent surgeon of any little sore, how
ever tiny, about the lips, tongue. or
throat which does not promptly heal.
"In this early stage and in a stage
Of irritation called the precancerous
stage, the disease is practically al
ways durable. But, Il allowed to go
on until it forms a lump of consider
able size, with every passing month
the chances OF cure become less. 4
"The treatment of cancer is abso-
lutely, first, last and all the time, sur
gical. No means have as yet been dis
covered which will cure cancer out
side OF surgery, with the exception OF
radium, and that is ct present in an
