(Sunphoto by Steve Armfield) At St. Jude Children's Hospital- Danny Thomas Puts His Luck To Work For Sick Children! Danny Thomas is a lucky man. So lucky that he founded the famous St. Jude Children s Research Hospital in gratitude, and to keep a sacred pledge he made when his career was at its lowest point. His luck held up. First, he was successful in finding generous people to contribute to the building of St. Jude’s. Then, he was able to interest the University of Tennessee’s Medical School in staffing the hospital - and in concentrating on research, especially in the fields of leukemia and other cancer and blood-related dis eases. Again, Danny’s luck came through. A research hospital is enormously expensive. The staff must be specialists of high standing in the medical field. Equipment is complex and costly. But Danny found thousands of Americans will ing to join him in helping to support the hospital. All Treatment Is Free Thousands of out-patient treatments are given every year to leukemia-stricken chil dren. Hundreds of others are given full-time care. AND NO ONE PAYS ONE PENNY FOR SUCH CARE. All children, all races, all religions are treated alike. Now, Danny’s fabulous luck is spreading to the specialists, and to the children stricken with leukemia. Leukemia is cancer of the blood. A few years ago, all such children could look forward to only a few more months of life - months filled with the torture and pain of the disease which kills nore children in Amer ica t>. i any other. NOV, ALMOST 30 PER CENT OF THOSE WHOSE CANCERS ARE CAUGHT EARLY ENOUGH CAN BE SAVED. NOW, HALF OF THOSE WHO CAN BE KEPT ALIVE FOR FIVE YEARS THROUGH THE CHEMICALS THEY RECEIVE AT ST. JUDE’S CAN LOOK FOR WARD TO A NORMAL LIFE SPAN Most doctors, and most hos pitals, must refer leukemia- stricken children to one of the nation's few leukemia centers- such as St. Jude’s. There then begins the race against death, a race in which chemicals are used to keep the child alive, until they lose their effective ness and another combination must be found. While the delicate treatment of such children proceeds, great contributions to medical knowledge and to its war on cancer are being made. St. Jude’s departments of pathol ogy, epidemiology, immunol ogy, bacteriology, chemother apy, nutrition and cell biology are daily adding bits and pieces of data that will help all mankind. Danny is hoping - for the sake of thousands of children who would die were it not for St. Jude’s - that his luck will hold out. He’s hoping that the people to whom he writes for contributions in November will make a gift that could well help in keeping a child alive to see another Christmas! Use Christmas Seals The Fire Report When the weatherman says: “Colder Tomorrow, w he could well add, “followed by death, injury, and destruction.” Cold weather means increased use of heating units. Twenty - five percent of all fires start some where in these heating sys tems. Practically all fires can be prevented by a few simple pre cautions. Each fall before fir ing up careful inspection should be made of all heating equip ment and any defects remedied. It is well worth the service charge to know that your unit is in proper working order. If this is done each year, you will avoid the large repair bills and actually pay less in the long run for proper maintenance of your heating system.
