see a doctor when to their mind
1t is vitality necessary. This US
ually means for the relief of pain.
Pain, unfortunately, is not an
early symptom of cancer. 1t is
almost as if nature eontrives to
fool us, for certainly if pain oe-
Cured early in the disease more
people would consult doctors at
"a time when the disease is cur
able.
Many people will not attend a
doctor when they first notice
symptoms because they do not
want to be told that they have
cancer. Cancer to them means
certain death. If these people
know how many persons all over
the country are being saved daily,
this anxiety would disappear and
they would be quick to take posi-
tive action.
Down through the ages, in fact,
there has come a horrifying dread
of cancer as a hopelessly incur
able disease. Up until the past
fifteen or twenty years this fear
was justified. Cancer was in
deed a hopeless agony which al
ways resulte din painful death.
But the attitude of the public
has not kept pace with advance
IN science. Even today, when
many people are being saved
from cancer daily, the vast ma
Jority of people still look upon
the diagnosis of cancer as a pro-
nouncement of impending doom.
1t is vitality important that this
fear be dispelled. Fear acts to
prevent people from seeing a
doctor early. Cancer is curably
only when seen in the early
stages, and every day spent in
fearful hesitation is valuable
time lost.
The Importance, therefore, of
learning cancer facts and of APP
preciating the life and death sig
nificance of early diagnosis, can
not be stressed too greatly.
Next weeks article will in
clude a list of cancer symptoms) :.

ON. THE AGRICUL-
TURAL FRONT

TWenty-seven persons partici-
pated in the Annual Farm Tour
of Pulaski County in which the
farmers in the northern part of
the county visited the farmers
in the southern part Of the coun-
ty last Tuesday, September 4th.
Five farms were visited including
those of Prof d. J. Johnson, w.
r. Ashmore, King Washington,
Ed. Cook, and Guile hurry. Each
farm visited demonstrated we'll
balanced live-at home program.
Special mention was given to
the usual large and fine corn pro-
duction program carried on by
Wr. r. Ashmore and King Wash
ington. These were the most in
teresting features of the tour. In
dications were that each Of these
farmers will produce more than
1000 bushels of corn this year.
The cotton crop Of Ed Cook
and Guile hurry seem to have
been the heaviest fruited and
more nearly finished making than
any Of the crops visited. Meat
hogs, vegetables and other food
crops gave evidence to adequate
family production.
The tour ended at the home of
King Washington where the home
demonstration club members in
the community served very
timely and tast ydinner includ-
ing vegetables cooked with coun-
try cured ham, fried chicken,
canned beef, lemonade, ice cream
and cake; after which a short
program was held including re-
marks by W. r. Ashmore, d. j.
johnson, Rev. A. H. Gentry, Ozell
McAllister, Louis Gentry, King
Washington and Mrs. d. J. John
son who spoke for the ladies.
The tour was under the lead
ership Of Elijah Thompson, Negro
County Agent, and is conducted
each year for the purpose of slim
ulating interest in improved me-
thods and practices in the pro-
duction Of field crops, livestock
and poultry.

healthful activity is Skipper, who
is playing "going to market" and
has just loaded the cart from the
fruit bowl that Mother keeps well
filled at all times for the children.
There's connection between
the two. Skipper doesn't know
about vitamins and minerals but he

prunes, bananas, green peas,
spinach, baked potato. to name but

normally crave fruit and even a
small child should be permitted to
eat this wholesome form of sweets

they are forced to live. These
conditions prevent them from
seeking early medical care.
Cancer is durable only when
seen in the early stages. OF the
estimated 10000 people who die
in this country every year from
cancer, at least one-third of S.
600 could easily be saved if their
cases were seen in the early
stages. Recent advances in med
icine, particularly in the use Of
radium and X-ray, and the i'm
provement in surgical technique,
have resulted in the cure of a
large proportion of the cancer
cases seen early.
Cancer gets off to a good start

that have a low income. Most

which can take sides with us in
such a contest. The spirit of the
master is abating, that of the
slave rising. l hope for a total
emancipation" The discussion
concludes with the statement,
jefferson was one of the great
est statesmen"
Full attention is given to the
so-called curse of Canaan which
many people even today still re-
gard as a divine curse elinging to
the Negro. The absufdity of this
is fully shown, and there is point
ed out the pre-eminence of the
Bible descendants of Ham-"cush-
itic Babylonia and Chaldea, Ham
itic Libya, black Nubia, and her
offspring, Phoenicia." The an
tiquity and ancient accomplish
ments of the Negro are discussed
with thorough historically, and
controversial questions such as
the race of Moses, Black Buddhas,
and so on, are presented with
adequate evidence and full ref
erences.
Little known facts regarding
the influence of the Negro on
the hiostory of Spain, Portugal,
France, England, Russia, Ger
many and Italy are stated, along
with ample references, Detailed
attention, of course, is accorded
the place of the Negro in Ameri-
can history.
The edition consists of six Sec
tons of 80 pages each, the equiva-
lent of a book Of four or five
hundred pages. Copious and
well-chosen illustrations and
photographs accompany the ar
ticles which are written by COM
petent authorities, often Phi. D.
and scholars.
Indeed the one regret of this
reviewer is that the edition was
not published as a regular book
instead of in newspaper form.
1t is worthy of preservation in
anybody's library.

SISgt Vernon Whatley is back
from the war and is about to
doff his uniform for civilian
clothes as he was given his dis
charge NAV 26. His medals and
his ribbons, too, will be laid
aside but will be treasured as a
record of his achievements as a
waist and tail gunner on a BIZ
in the Battle of Europe.
Among the awards is the Air
Medal with five Oak Leaf clus-
tiers, the Good Conduct Medal
with a bar, the Purple Heart
Medal, and the European-Afri-
can-Middle- East ribbon with a
bronze battle star.
Sgt. Whatley enlisted in the
Air Corps a little over four years
ago, giving up his employment
at the Ingalls, shipyard to do so.
He was sent to England from
which all of his missions 35 of
them were made over Belgium,
France, and Germany.
He was wounded in the hand
and one eye in a mission over
Merseberg, Germany, but is al
most fully recovered and expects
to regain his normal eyesight as
time goes on.
Sgt. Whatley spent the first
few days following his discharge,
with Mrs. Whatley in Tampa,
Fla, but is now in Pascagoula
for a visit with his Rarents, Mr..
and Mrs. r. A. Whatley. AT the
end of his visit he will return
to Tampa where he will be en-
ployed in a shipyard.
He has two brothers still in
the service and another who is
awaiting his call and still anoth-
er one who has received q med
zeal discharge.
Pvt. Rupert Whatley has been
in the Army eight years. He is
with the LIST Army and is now
somewhere in France. His young
er brother, Pfc. Robert Whatley,
is also with the LIST Army, in the
Bird armored division, Bind regi-
ment and is in Germany. He has
peen in the service two years.
Henry Whatlev was with the
Army before receiving his medi-
cad discharge.
