Doctor Says Prompt
Care Kills Cancer

KANSAS CITY, 30, Oct. 19.-(R
With modern methods Of treat
ment, there Is no excuse for persons
to neglect cancer Of the face and
avoid medical aid because Of fear Of
disfiguration, DIR. James Nj. Martin,
professor OF the Baylor University
college Of Medicine. Dallas, Texas,
declared today in an address before
the convention Of the Interstate
POSTGRADUATE association Of North
America.
Early methods Of treating cancer
of the face, he said, were far from
successful. Cures were few and re-
sulting sears and deformities were
so often so Objectionable that victims
preferred to be dead. Since then,
DR.. Martin continued, methods of
treatment have improved until death
in properly treated cases Of cancer
OF the face, except in advanced
stages, i an exception, and dis
f~iEurations are few.
TO seek aid after the cancer has
reached advanced stages, DR.. Martin
said, was like sending for the fire
department after the fire had burn
ed its way through a building.

cause Of the necessity Of keeping
such metals free from impurities they
must be melted under conditions that
will not permit the flame from a gas
furnace to come in contact with
them. This is the way it's done:
"The actual melting pot is sur
rounded by a coil Of wire, directly
connected with a transformer which
supplies about 1000 volts. The coil
is water-cooied SO that il carries this
high current without itself reaching
a high temperature, and there is a
heavy lining Of insulating material
between the coil an the retort.
by a process of induction, which
employs the radio principle, the heat
generated by the current is all con-
centrated upon the metal TO be melt
ed. The surroundings are so cool that
the crucible employed may be lifted
with NJ special precautions and the
molten metal poured into molds
without any discomfort to the oper-
ator although the metal has a melt
ing point Of over $500 degrees +.
1.-THE special alloy made in this
way is free from impurities, and has
the highest possible resistance to the
extreme conditions met with in spark

DODGE UNIT
REORCANIzED
Changes in Service
School Are An
nounced Here

To maintain and improve the high
quality of service to owners for
which Dodge Brothers dealer organ
ization has become so well known
throughout the country, the factory
has completely recognized its train
ing school for service managers and
service men. The school has been in
existence for several years, giving q
comprehensive course In servicing
Dodge Brothers four cylinder cars
which has been taken by thousands
Of service men from all parts Of the
country.
The recognized course Of study
includes, in addition to the former
instruction on four cylinder cars, de-
tailed study Of the c~ompany's senior
line. The school Is modern in every
respect and the instructors in charge
are specially trained service engineers
who know the proper method Of per-
forming every mechanical detail of
service on both lines of cars.
The training course now includes
instruction on servicing motor,
clutch, transmission, universal joint.
front and rear axles, steering gear,
brakes and other mechanical fea-
lures. All major parts are on dis
play in the room as well rs two cut
away chassis. With the latest and
most efficient tools for both the
four and the Senior at hand the
students and instructors 20 through
all service operations, giving the
students a chance to see how each
is performed. A number of the more
modern and highly efficient shop
tools that Dodge Brothers recon-
mend are shown and by actual DEM
onstration the proper method to use
them is fully explained.
Already approximately 100 service
men have come in 70 the factory to
20 through the new course Of study
and during the next few weeks il Is
expected that many dealers from all
over the country will send their men
to Detroit to take the course Of in
struction. q
In addition to the service school
Dodge Brothers maintains field SER
vice men all over the country whose
sole work is TO maintain contact with
dealers service departments and keep
them informed on the most up-to-
date methods of servicing Dodge
Brothers cars. Each of these travel
ing representatives is a trained ser
vice engineer whose work in his par
~ticular territory supplements that OF
the faetory's service school.
