CURE VERY NEAR
French Surgeon Hints in

BIZ Radio to The star.

By Radio to The Star.
LONDON, June 22.-That the world
Is near q nonrentous discovery in the
treatment and cure of cancer was
limited last night by Prof. Claude
Regaud of the Pasteur Institute and the
University of Paris, when he delivered
the Cavendish lecture before the West
London Medico-C hirugical Society at
Kensington Town Hall here. This dis
covery, he forecast. would come from
the ARCHAEOLOGICAL side, which he
called the most fruitful field for investi-
cation in the near future.
If the means could be found. he said.
to increase the narrow margin of RADIO
sensitiveness which lay between normal
and cancerous tissue it would constitute
q momentous discovery. Radium, he
pointed out, had been used as q thera-
peutic agent for 80 years, and that great
advances had been made in that time.
All sorts of methods of attacking cancer
by means of radium had been at
tempted he remarked, yet 1t was fairly
well established that any approach by
way of the blood stream was without
any real value.
The use of radioactive needles In
conditions such as cancer OF the tongue
presented would always be of value, he
said, but its usefulness In this direc-
ton was limited. The use of radium
combined with surgery, he continued
still offers promising field In the cure
of cancer.
"Radium," the French professor said,
els not a panacea for cancer, far from
it. The public, and even medical men,
do not always realize the serious diff
culties which are met with in the use
of radium. While awaiting further de-
velopments in radium treatment of
cancer we must rely upon an early
diagnosis and an early and proper
treatment. therapeutic methods
In surgery are of proved value"
The lecture was illustrated by series
of lantern slides Illustrating some of
the amazing cures effected Under the
dire ction of the lecturer by his Partisan
associates In 1926 he pointed out that
cancer of the lip cures had reached the
high figure of 81 per cent He cited
other statistics to show that In various
forms Of cancer an amazing number OF
cures has been registered since the war.

Home, the place where be-
loved parents live, where furni-
ture is familiar, where friendly
playmates laugh and play, is a
small child'S whole world for a
few years.
Now our world is bigger. We
can appreciate the whole uni
verse, our vast country and
countries across the seas. Do
you remember that your work
and your recreations, your very
life, seemed speeded up, and
that it took a few years to do
things less intensely afterward?
To q small child a Hurried
home, the home where there
is loud noise, confusion, scold-
ing and quarreling, is like our
world during war times. But
the quiet, well-run place which
Is home, the peaceful happy place
filled with consideration for
others. time to listen to . little
fellow once In o while, that
must be like our big worldfaS it

Yesterday I, ran away out
into the country and sat by
the roadside a long time. Every

the distance could hear a
farmer calling Geo." and
"Haw" at his team as he un-
hurriedly plowed a field. That
man would do his work, per-
hapS read his evening paper
after a deliberate supper and go
to a refreshing sleep. No jump
ing into the tiny little automo-
bile after eating and rushing
into town to discuss the latest
developments in the big fight.
No heated discussions at the
corner drug store over who was
right and who was wrong. No
driving home, SteWing with
heated, mental arguments as to
the why Of the thing, or the
outcome, and ending in a toss
ing, dreaming sleep, with a drag

The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1929-11-23

So it is with the children Of
peaceful homes. Work and play
can progress without the cleo
trio undercurrent Of something
unpleasant about to happen, or
constantly happening. And rest
full sleep can come at night
without hours Of tossing before
jangling nerves are in a condi-
ton to invite sleep.
A world at war isa precari-
Gus world. A home at war
means a child's world at war,
with the attendant nervous
strain, wiStful eyes, and uncom-
pretending unhappinesS.
And once again, parents have
to, by example rather than pre-
cept, offer the children self
control, kindness, courtesy and
love.
Shrill, impatient commands,
engendered by adult emotion
rather than necessity, mold
nervous, excftable children.
Scolding at other adults. even
though the child be uncon-
cerned has an irritating effect,
and conditions the child's re-
SponSe to other children, and
grown-ups. When the time
comes, you will hear your own
knife-edged tones, your own
angry retort used by the child
for his own purposes.
Nagging and fault-finding,
hurry, a lack of planning which
. makes for half-prepared actions,
are all reflected In the tiny per-
son who sees and senses them.
When you stop to think that
the home is your child's whole
big world you will readily I'M
derStand why it is so important
to keep the tone of life there
a harmonious one. You will
understand why your thought
less, everyday little chickering's,
naggingS and cauStic remarks
are such a weighty force in
molding your child's character.
There he takes his cue for all
life, he takes his tempo from
the home, and likewise his pitch.
