CANCER

Some 20 years ago my father died of cancer. He died in the height Of his usefulness when only 49 years or age. He need not have died from cancer. If Cancer Week. such as we are observing all over the United States this week, had been observed during my fathers life he might still be alive and be contributing his share of usefulness and happiness to the world There was no need Of my fathers dying of cancer. He had ample warning had he known it. I shall tell you about him.
 My father was six feet tall. robust and active; his health was apparently perfect. We were ranching in Cali fornia and he was doing the whole some out-of-door work that goes with the management of a ranch He mo- ticed litle sore on his hand. He thought nothing of it and treated himself with salves and ointmenrs- It did not heal. Still it was such 6 trifle. Just small sore on his hand. No pain no effect CU bis general health.
 In about six months he was in a hospital having the major operation of the rem moval of a mass of tum orous glands from under his arm. He had waited too long Had he had the It. tie sore thoroughly removed by a competent physician when he rounu it did not show evidences of healing undoubtedly it would have been re- moved before it's cells had broken off and been carried by the lymph vessels into his system.
 Instead Of slight painless opera ton under "a. local anesthesia with a triling scar remaining, he had to have a very serious and extensive op- eration. A year later he died. He might have been alive today. Can you see how much I wish there had

 After my father died. I had a nor bid fear of cancer I thought 1t was hereditary and I was always de- pressed at the thought of dying the lingering death that he did. Now I know about cancer I never rear 1t as the termination of my life.
 I still fear cancer but 1t Is the wholesome fear that we all should possess I fear it so much that as long as I possess any sense I shall never let anything go to the cancer stage on me Or mine
 I also know that cancer is not her editory. I know that it is not con- tagious, and I know that in the large majority of cases there is pre-can- cerous stage which gives no definite symptoms. know that if these symptoms were needed in time the large number of deaths from cah- cer would not occur
 know that if I have a sore on my hand or on my skin anywhere, or on my lip or my tongue, and that if it shows no evidence of healing, I will hie me pretty quick to a com petent surgeon even if 1 have to hire an aeroplane to get me there I know that if I have a lump in my breast, it will come out the next day after I discover it
