Cancer incapacitates 100000
Americans annually and takes 1907
600 American lives each yearl There
were $50 deaths from cancer in
Montana during l943!
The Congress of the United States
in 1888 took cognizance of cancer
as one of the country's great killers
by setting aside the month of April
as Cancer Control Month Dur
ing this time the Women's Field
Army of the American Society for
the Control of Cancer conducts an
intensive nation wide educational
campaign.
The statement Treated in Time
Cancer can be Cured" has been a
ray of hope to many persons who
have been afraid of the word cam
Ger. Education is the key to cancer
control. The wide prevalence of
false ideas makes it necessary for
the average adult to replace his or
her present conception Of cancer
with the now known facts about this
condition. A simple understanding
of the nature of cancer, in the light
of present day knowledge, should
The Western news. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1933-current, 1944-04-06

refute practically all misconcep-
tons the public now holds about
this disease.
Lincoln County is doing its part
in this work and the local commit
tee has made plans for the Cancer
Control Drive. Literature will be
passed out through the different
organizations and on Monday, April
10, there will be a Tag Day so that
may donate any amount,
large or small, to this cause. In
dividual enlistments are Sl.00 for
anyone who wishes to join the
ranks of active supporters, but any
contribution will be very much ap-
preciated. The tagging will be for
one day only and the committee
hopes to secure the needed amount
in that way, along with enlistments
from the various loca organizations.
The Libby committee is composed
of Miss Inez Ratekin, chairman and
county commander, Mrs. H. w. Red

Sophomore Class
Presents Two
Lively Plays

A full period of entertainment
was offered by the Sophomore class
of Libby High School when they
presented two one-act plays before
the Junior and Senior high student
bodies.
The first play presented was BE
Home by Midnight Father Jones
Dave Klehm) was loudly raising
his voice as the clock struck mid
night and his two children, Mary
(Marjory Hunter) and Paul (John-
ME Richards), were still not in.
Mother Jones (Marilyn Neils) tried
to pacify her husband by reminding
him their youngest son, Junior
Russell Walsh, was at least in
bed. Through a series of events the
play ends with Junior coming in
later than Mary or Paul.
The second play, who Gets the
Car Tonight = presented another
typical family situation. Everyone
(the same characters as before) in
the family needed the car worse
than they had ever needed it be-
fore. Again there is family argu-
ment but the arguments were to no
avail for in the climax the garage
called and informed the Jones fam
lily the car had a leak in the gas
tank and wouldn't be ready until
the following day.
The plays were also given for Old

The Sophomores showed that the
class has some excellent talent and
next year, as Juniors, they will pre-
sent a three-act play.

Egg Week Proclaimed
by Governor Kelly

Michigan poultrymen in their
patriotic effort to comply with Fed
eral request for increased food pro-
duction find themselves confronted
with an over-abundance OF eggs.
This is due in part to the increased
number OF laying hens and the unu-
sually mild winter which brought
about the peak OF egg production
much earlier than usual.
Unless these eggs can be profit
ably marketed Immediately it will
become necessary for the produc-
er to eliminate his flocks. Should
this occur we will be faced with a
potential egg famine in the coming
fall and winter months. Therefore,
1t Is the patriotic duty OF every
citizen TO help assure a continued
production of eggs by using more
OF this fine. unrationed food now.
