Doctors AdUise Cancer
Teaching to Save Lives.

The same regard for human life that
prompts people to teach children to
swim, to mark exits in red and to
arrange fire drills at school should also
prompt early and adequate teaching
about the facts of concer.
According to a bulletin on the sub
ject issued by the Minnesota State
Medical association today, cancer Is as
ruthless a killer as fire and waves and
a much more frequent cause of death.
More than 10000 people died from it
in the United States in 1887 and ap-
proximately half of them could have
been saved if they had known the
simple facts about cancer and acted
upon them promptly.
AS routine life saving measure,
therefore, members of the committee
on public health education of the
association today endorse the campaign
carried on annually during the spring
months by the Women's Field Army of
the American Society for the Control of
Cancer to extend cancer education and
secure members in Minnesota.
The youngest children are being
trained today in what to do in case of
fire or accident in order to avoid panic
and save life. People of all ages should
also be taught to report for careful
examination as soon as the slightest
lump or unusual discharge or bleeding
occurs to find out if the cause is cancer.
If it is, and it is treated immediately
life may be saved just as definitely
as when a man is rescued from drown
ing. In addition, cancer panic will be
avoided.
Physicians urge the interest of every
body in the spring educational cam
paign by the Women's Field Army about
cancer.
