NEW GUARDIAN
IS Ma M ED FOR
STANLEY CHILD
Rather Unique Proceedings
in Much Fought Over Child
in MinOt Court
TO ALTERNATE HOME

| Minot, N. d., May 17.-A somewhat
unique decision, involving the guar
dianship and custody of Lois Flath,
four year old orphan, of Stanley,
| N. d., has just been handed down in
district court in Minot by Judge
John c. Lowe of this city, wherein
it is provided in part that Dr.. A.
Flath of Stanley shall become the
| guardian of the child.
The case has attracted considerable
attention, due to the fact that the
two sets of grandparents have been
seeking the custody and guardianship
! of the child. In memorandum opin-
ion recently written, Judge Lowe
gave joint guardianship of the girl
to DR.. A. Flath and Mr.. and Mrs.
Gems Nelson, all grandparents Of the
child, with power to agree between
themselves as to the actual custody
of the child.
No Agreement Reached
This arrangement, according to
court officials, did not meet with
favor from DR.. Flath, the plaintiff, or
the defendants, Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson,
and Judge Lowe prepared new pa
pers in the case.
DIR. Flath is awarded sole and exc
cutive guardianship of Lois during
her minority.
Inasmuch as the plaintiff and de-
PENDANTS equally love the child and
are entitled to share equally in the
companionship, possession, love and
affection of Lois, they are entitled to
her possession for equal periods un-
til she shall arrive at the age Of sew
en- years, Judge Loves decision
states. After that time, the decision
continues, during the period Of the
school year of nine months of each
year the child shall remain in the
possession of the plaintiff contInu-
ously except as subsequently provid-
ed for.
Alternate Until School
Until the child arrives at the age
of seven years on September /, 1927,
the plaintiff and defendants shall
have continuous possession of Lsis
alternately for four month periods,
the court holds. This portion of the
order becomes effective on June l,
1924, when it is provided that DR..
Flath may receive possession of Lois
from the Nelson family where she
is now residing.
After September |, 1927, the ordcr
provides, during the nine months.
period Of school year of each year,
Lois shall remain in the possess on
Of DR.. Flath continuously and until
the close of the school year; who re-
upon and within five days from the
close of the school year, upon the
request of the defendants, she shal
be placed in the custody of Mr.. and
Mrs Nelson and there remain until
the following September. During the
time that the child is in the posses
sion of Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson the court
provides that they shall furnish her,
without charge, with the proper food
and care, while DR.. Flath as guar
dian is compelled to furnish the pro-
per clothing, if necessary.

DANCES
 WITH U. s. GIRL
Miss LeOnOre Cahill Of St. Louis
 Chosen For His Partner

On Beard R, NJ, s, BeTengaFia. Aug, s7.-Aliss Leonore eahill of St, Louis is the lucky girl aboard the Berengaria, From among the beNy of beauties that were his for the asking, the Prince of Wales chose Miss cahill as a dancing partner al a tea daRsant yesterday.
 IL may not have been the most comfortable dance of Miss eahill's career because the heat was intense but it will be the longest remem- bered,
 The prince seemed slightly affeet- ed by the blisterlhg weather His collar gave up the struggle in The middle of the party and he went below for a fresh one before cons tinuing on the dance floor.
 Miss cahill was not the only per- son with whom the prince danced, but she was the only American girl. II, R. H. danced with Lady Louis Mountbatten and Mrs. Richard Nor ion. who Is accompanying the Nominations 10 the United States.
 On one lap of the room Wales recognized II. R, Gardner on tho small end of sakophone, which he plays in tho Rerengaria orchestra. Gardner and the prince are old friends. They first met when the musician was a member of the crack Irish guards and again when the prince crossed to Canada in 1923 on the Empress of France. Cross- ing over to the orchestra Wales shook hands with Gardner and dur ing the intermission they chatted.
 The prince, Lord Louis Moupt- batten and Mir. Duff Cooper and members Of the prince's suite took part in a practice tug-of-war. An English team Is being formed to pull against an American team.
 Strenuous exercise continues to be a part of Wales routine. He was up early again yesterday morn- ing for a workout in the gymna- sium and a few rounds with the gloves against George Mason, an English boxer.
 Wales appears to be enjoying the voyage thoroughly and is winning the golden opinion of the other passengers by the spirit with which he enters into the games and other amusements. For his part he is delighted over the attitude of his fellow travellers, giving him un- wonted freedom from special at- tention.
 1ta t,r.t., .1,., with his tug-of-war team which is to compete with a team composed of Americans. The latter out weighed the princes team but have offered to adjust weights so as to equalize things.
 The prince rises at 7:50 a. m, boxes, exercises and promenades the deck vigorously. He has a cheery greeting for the newspaper corre- spondents who seek him out and altogether appears happy and care- free. Occasionally he has private poker party in his own suite, but he is generally out reveling in the fresh air and sunshine.

CANCER INCREASES
 AT ALARMING PACE
Statistics Tor 1928 Reveal i,l5O Deaths From This Cause

resent isbulatien of deaths from cancer in the efiiee of the state de- psrmsnt of health, indicates that curing the last half century nearly ss,o00 people in Connecticut have died fFam this disease, The num- Der of deaths attributed to cancer las increased from sei ia 1875 10 lib0 in 1888,
 Figures indicate a rise of isi per cent in cancer death rate from an average Of ss,s for the five years beginning 1875. 10 ss.e for the four gears beginning 1890, A similar in- crease Is reported from other states and other civilized countries Some think the increase Is only apparent and Is due te better diagnosis, changes in age distribution and oth' CT factors. II appears likely that the figures reflect in large part q real Increase in prevalence of cancer
 The cause Of cancer is not known, Specific preventive measures useful in communicable disease control do not apply to cancer. Such measures as are available must he applied hy each individual for himself Cancer SO frequently develops in tissues suh- jscted to long continued irritation that the prevention or removal Of such irritation may be regarded as measure for the prevention Of ean- eer.
 Everybody should understand that cancer Is not communicable, that it is not inherited and that it Is not a s.biood disease" There Is no reason so fear "ratching" the disease from
 sr aying 1t because an an- .4f Having cancer is no a, iit te he individual or family.
 PpuHs can be dismissed as s,s aur of worry.
 oy should understand that
 .r- t9ass z cancer may be cured
 C, tment Is begun in time. A. nrst cancer Is local growth and may be removed. People must know the danger signals so as to seek treatment in time. Some of the dam ger signals are:
 l. AHy sOIc III iIt uloutii tiiat does not promptly heal.
 2. Any wart. mole. ulcer. bruise or any sore on the body that changes in appearance or does not heal.
 3. Any long continued irritation about the mouth or elsewhere.
 {. Any lump which does not soon disappear may be cancer.
 s. Any unusual or long continued discharge of blood.
 If medical advice is sought promptly upon the occurrence of any of these danger signals, a sur prislngly large number of cancers can be readily so thoroughly remav- ed as to effect cure. If all cancer cells can be taken away before the growth extends from its primary location to other parts of the body. . cure may be expected.
 It is highly important that per- Bon with cancer be properly advised in regard to method of treatment All advertised cancer cures may be classed as frauds and swindles. There is no medicine known which, taken internally. or applied locally. can be depended upon to cure can cer. Even though drugs offered for this purpose should prove harmless, the delay occasioned may cause the cancer to grow beyond the stage where 1t can be cured by proper treatment. The course to pursue if one suspects cancer is to seek the advice of the family physician in whom every confidence is placed and then follow his advice if he deems it wise to consult specialist.
