IYOOR HEALTH CANCER i Cancer is a health problem of middle life second only to heart disease. Here the most pressing need is a sharp reversal of our attitudes. Hope- j lcssness must be replaced witn nope; tear must be superseded with understand- I ing; resignation must give way to prompt action. Somehow it must be < brought home to everyone of i us that, taken in time, can- < cer can be cured! Two im- ! portant facts about cancer < determine its curability: it is 1 always local at the beginning, < and if the local cancer is < completely removed before it spreads to other parts, it does 1 not return. None of us should forget < for a moment the warning 1 symptoms of cancer and take < promot action should thov 1 occur: i 1. Progressive change in form or color of any wart, mole or birthmark. 2. Any sore that does not j heal, especially around the mouth. 3. Persistent hoarseness 1 lasting more than a few weeks. 4. Painless lump or thick- 1 ening especially in the breast, lip or tongue. 5. Persistent indigestion. 6. Bloody discharge from the nipple or any body open- ' ing. 7. Radical change in normal bowel habits. Instead of becoming panicky and beint* afrairl of going to the doctor for fear of what he may find, if the signs are experienced, we should go to him promptly. Any of these things may mean other things than cancer, but if they do mean cancer, the sooner one receives medical treatment the more likely he is to survive. The worse thing one can possibly do is try some home treatment for any of the warning signs shown above, or try some quack remedy. ' Either of these may appear ] to give temporary relief, but 1 T ^ ihbp ERIOUS EFFORT in the Adult ne Clinton Mills community is d progress is being made by the By CAROLYN INGLETT MYRTLE WEST Clinton-Lydia Nurses if it is cancer, it will continue to spread to the point where it cannot be cured.
