Familiarity with the signs of

against this disease. DR.. Dodge
spoke in the interest of the Kinds

Every person should know the
six danger signs which may mean
cancer" DR.. Dodge said. "These
are: lump, no matter how small
or painless, any irregular bleed

a persistent cough or hoarseness
not caused by cold; any digestive

detect early cancer and treat pre-
cancerous conditions"
Although cancer is the second

Mississippi, it becomes incurable
only because of neglect or delay,
the physician stated, estimating
that three-fourths of early cancers
can be cured.

a mysterious reli-

dirty sheets were,
she was quoted as
telling them, neces-
Sary means 10 pur'

But an important
part of this new
religion, attributed
10 Mrs. Smith, was
alleged 10 have
been the cash value
of the two girls.
The FBI men said
that not only did
she take the girls
ample earnin gs
each week, but she
also mufeted the

among strangers is especially likely
TO make the acquaintance of some
domineering potential Svengali, who
is unconsciously looking for victim.
II is a wise young man or young
woman who refrains from forming
close friendship with a domineering
person. Break off before any hyp-
notic.like condition has been given
chance to develop.
And if such a situation has devel-
oped, bear in mind that it came about
just because you gave in. You have
not been given any drug or mesmeric
influences. You arc simply being a
mouse, not a man. Your submissive
ness started it, and with aggressive
ness you can easily break the slave

the wives who meekly stay home and
scrimp while their husbands spend.
Essentially, this is precisely the
same situation as the FIJI uncovered
in Mrs. Smiths household in Tulsa.
Then there are some bosses who
have their old employees completely
under their thumbs. The employees
are overworked and underpaid, but
put up with it because, through the
years, the boss has gradually weak
ened their resistance.
1t Is an interesting fact that domi-
neering people seldom form friend
ships with other domineering people.
This is often seen in friendships
between girls who work in offices, OF
who live together in roomfng houses.
The bossy one makes the other her
virtual slave.
When they have double dates she
picks the boy friend for the humble
girl. She dresses well, but insists
that the submissive girl always wear
palmer clothes.
