EXAMINATION DAY
FOR U. s. URGED BY
MEDICAL SOCIETIES

The American Society for the Con-
troll of Cancer is strongly seconding
the efforts of the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention OF
tuberculosis to have December set
apart as National Medical Examin-
alton Day." Among other opservances
planned for the day, DR.. Harvey r.
Gaylord, of Buffalo, Director Of the
New York State Institute for the
Study Of Malignant Disease, will de-
liver an address on cancer at Min
neapolis under the auspices of the
'Health and Happiness Week" ar
ranged by the Minnesota Public
Health Association in cooperation
with other social and civic organiza-
tons.
The time fs undoubtedly coming
when Americans will appreciate the
great wisdom of the Chinese policy of
paying the doctor to keep the patient
well. The rapidly growing movement
in favor of an annual medical ex-
animation for every person, sick or
well promises mueA benefit in the
reduction OF the death rate from can
Ger as well as that from tuberculosis.
In both these very prevalent dis
eases the hope of cure is very much
greater if the ailment be recognized
and treated in the earliest stages.
Cancer is by no means hopelessly
fatal disease and an ever increasing
number of those afflicted are being
saved through their intelligent recog-
milton of the danger signals and their
prompt recourse to competent treat
ment. Undoubtedly many more cases
of this disease would be recognized
in time for treatment in the early
stages, when cure is a comparatively
simple matter, if the people were in
the habit of consulting tn cir physi-
clans once a year or even at shorter
intervals, and having a general ply
steal examination.
Cancer patients are often persons
who have generally enjoyed good
health, have never been seriously Ill
and who at the time Of the onset OF
the disease were apparently in robust
health. This disease is so insidious
in its approach and so often without
pain in the first stages that the pa
tient often fails to pay serious atten-
ton to the signs Of danger Stats
tics independently gathered by many
surgeons prove that the average can
Ger patient waits year or more after
observing some suspicious condition
before seeking the treatment which
is then often too late. This disastrous
delay Is the main If not the sole OBJ
stacle to the successful treatment OF
cancer at the present time.
Early cancer" says DR., ChaTles p

This is going to be the
greatest made in America
Christmas that ever we have
any of us seen.

There are more American gift-things
this Christmas than ever before.
There is more goodness to be noted in
these American things than ever before
That is why it is going to be the biggest
and the best American Christmas that ever
was.
Toyland IS a good example of exactly
what we mean.
See the wonderful trains that go whirng round and
round
Note well the handsome carriages and gocarts that
little girls are offered for their dollies
Take good long look at all the games for boys and
girls to enjoy during winter evenings.
Spend little time noticing how nicely the rocking
horses and the little shoo-fy rockers made.
See with your eyes how well the mechanical toys
have been built.
And then remember that they are made in American
workshops
Truly may well be proud of our Made America
Christmas
there is just one exception: the Dolls
We cannot make dolls to equal those made in Europe
And, fortunately, there imported dolls in Toy
land; quite lot of them And with them the best Of
those made in America
Little girls who love doies going to be disap-
pointed Not much there many many beauties wait
ing to gladden. their hearts.
