in Lexington at the City Hall for
the purpose Of helping Organize q
permanent cancer association for

The purpose Of this organization
IL threefold: Education, research and
help for the INDECENT cancer victims.
When we realize that 100000 Of
u present population in the Uni
ted States will die of cancer unless
something is done to reduce the
present death rate from cancer; that
more than 1900 of our people in
Mississippi (l200 Of them women)
died last year of cancer-approxi-
mately one person out OF every Q
people. This should certainly bestir
us to do something. Our best author
tiles say that if the people and the
family physician knew how to rec
ognize and heed the early symptoms
Of cancer that more than one-hali
of this number could be saved. VIZ
should feel that it is a privilege and
the opportunity of our lives to have
a part in such a noble undertaking
We hope to have a representative
number at this meeting so as to elect
good active officers for the associa-
ton. Come and help elect OF il you
are not there to help elect someone
else, YOU might be elected.
