The objective this year for the Barrie and District Unit of the Society is to help as many as possible oLttIe one in four Canadians who are stricken by cancer and to reach the other three so they can be told the symptoms of this dread disease and told the importance of early diagnosis and treatment WELFARE SERVICES The Units objective is to pro vide welfare services for all cancer patients 65 per

the world in Canada the effort is directed through the society The society is the only national voluntary health agency fighting cancer through research education and service to patients its sole
