Even When Careful

Calomel is dangerous. 1t may sal

calomel. 1t is mercury; quicksilver.

CANCER WEEK
Do it today!

This is cancer week throughout
the nation. ...
The object of Cancer Week" is
not to spread alarm about cancer
but to bring hope through educa'
ton for the prevention and cure Of
this dreaded disease which is Sec
ond only to tuberculosis in fatili-
tiles.
The aim of the cancer education
is to so impress the public that mo-
tice will be taken of pre-cancerous
warnings. ...........
Until recently diagnosis Of can
Ger has been regarded as a death
warrant. But now, after scientific
research, we are informed that can
Ger can. be both prevented and
cured. Malignant cancer is positive
" incurable, but in its preliminary
stages the disease can be cured.
1t is for this purpose that this
has been designated cancer week.
Physicians have responded nobly
and are giving up their time to edu-
cate the people. Let it be hoped
there will be ready response.

HALLOWEEN

Halloween, or All Hollow Even
the name given to the night Of Oc-
tober 31st, and the eve Of All
Saints Day November 1st), is the
one night in all the year when most
towns are what is termed "wide
OPEN" It is the night that boys
look upon as the opportunity for
mischievous pranks and affording
the license to annoy their elders.
Girls Just naturally consider Hal
lowe'en the time to peer into the
future. sweep sidewalks at midnight
and comb their hair before the
looking glass, expecting to see the
features of their future mate. 1t IS
the night best loved by COLLINS,
elves. gnomes, witches and certain
of our citizens who masquerade in
odd attire and call upon their
friends, who grin and look foolish
as they try to identify the ghostly
visitors. Of all nights in the year
this is the one upon which supernat-
ural influences most prevail and
there should be nothing but jollity
and mystery.
November was also one of the
uuarternary periods when the
Druids lighted their bonfires in
honor of Baal. The custom was
kept up in many portions of Great
Britain until comparatively recent
period. The lighting of these fires
was followed by feasting on nuts,
apples and parsnips and the playing
of games. Scotland and Wales had
many superstitions regarding these
fires and looked upon them as ef-
ficacious for lighting souls from
purgatory.
On this night the peasants in Ire
land assemble with sticks and clubs,
going from house to house, collect
ing money and food for the feast,
repeating verses in honora6f the So
lem1ity, demanding preparations
for the festival in the name OF st.
Columb Kill. .%t
Everybody is familiar with
Burns favorite poem, "Haliowe'-
en-" which gives panoramic in.
sight into the customs of Old Scotia
on this night of mirth and mystery
Perhaps no influence has done more
than this to preserve and spread
these observances among English
speaking folk.
But what was once ceremony
of deep belief has become thing OF
snort welcome in a day of serious
thought. and work and sense OF re-
sponsibility, so that now its obser-
vances are all jest, which the Young
people play upon themselves, not in
The least believing in the conse-
ouences, half hoping there is some
thing in it, and saying to themselves
that stranger things have happened.

mind; but God can so that 1 will
think of myself as L ought to think,
so that / will use my gift (whatever
it is) in a way that will please Him
and not collide with my brothers.
A renewed mind will make me see
that his gift and mine are equally
necessary to the body of Christ,
even though not equally important;
that we are to cooperate, and lot
to collide in our use of them.
Their love will be the controlling
motive, and all my relations to Him
will be governed by that Even
though He is my enemy, love will
wait until God has settled the score
between US, looking out in the mean
time for an opportunity to do him
a good turn and in so doing heap
Goals of fire on his head.
Can not we learn this gracious
truth just here-that because of the
mercies of God, and because +ot
are all things" our part is just to
make Him a gift and let Him re-
new our minds and transform us in
to His likeness. We are not to make
a life that will be a success, but
just to accept a life that He has
planned for us. How different the
two. Which do you want.
But notice, teachers; the first
essential for you teaching this les
son is that you do it yourself, Make
the gift;, it's reasonable, Be not
conformed to this age; it's evil Be
if you will let Him. And you will
find out day ~ day the blessed ex-
perience of living in the splendor
of the. will of God There's no life
that can compare with it all.
