in the medical schools in the clinics and in the research laboratories of this and other countries and the men engag cd in the combat are the doctors the research men and thetechnlc inns The least that the layman can do is to see to it that they are given the tools to finish the job and the Canadian Cancer Society is pledged to that cause In Ontario there are three or ganizations actively engaged in the cancer control program The first is the Ontario Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation which is previncial in scopeand is concern ed with the diagnosis and treat ment of cancer the establish cut and support of clinics and clinical research The second organization is the National Cancer 1nstitutca scien tific and professional organization concerned chiey with the problems of fundamental research profession al education and the support of the Central Tumor Registry Role of Society The Canadian Cancer Society which the local unit is branch of has as its functions lay education and service to the cancer patient It acts asthe only Cancer agency making public appeal for funds for cancer control The society is national in scope with divisions in yall the provinces except Manitoba andthese provincial divisions are further divided into local and county units The Canadian Cancer Society came into physical being in 1937 as result of recommendation of the Canadian Medical Association Shortly after the formation of the society World War II broke out and the work of the society was of necessity curtailed With the end of the war its activities Weresre spmed and in the years since that time the growth and development of the society has been outstanding stated Mr Weich The essentials of its program are dime the cam Forum velops more rapsdisc than Asiatic held in Barrie on Wednesday can log Dr Weaver umber of the medical staff at Hamilton General Hospital was one of the outstando trig speakers brought to Barrie for the forum which marked the for motion of local cancer control unit Reviewing the advance made in the treatment of thedrcad disease up to the present time the speaker pointed out that there had been no more accelerating advance in of forts against the disease than in the understanding of cancer gained by the public The chief function of the Can adian Cancer Society he stated is to educate the public To conquer fear of the disease he remarked it is necessary to know the facts and many of them are encouraging Misconceptions About Disease He spoke of the many misconcep ions that the public have about the ilseose that must be eliminated People feel that nothing is known ibOill cancer and that nothing can be done about it and the result is feeling of unreasonable fear and hopelessness There is sense of disgrace and indecency about it in the minds of so many people If women would learn to tall as free ly about cancer as they do about gall bladder and ovary troubles there would be mortality drop by half In cancer of the uterus and breast in the next few years In no branch of medicine he stal cd is there greater tendency for the person to go to quack dis penser delaying good treatment even when it is available right he side them No branch of society would like to find cure more than the medical profession hepolnted out Any true advances are like ly to come through the ordinary scientific channels Symptoms of Cancer The first thing that the average person should know about cancer are its symptoms he stressed Any lump any ulcer which doesnt heal promptly any change in bowel Or bladder habit any unusual dis charge from any body openings especially if bloodyany change iii wart or mole must be viewed with suspicion Constantly re curring irritation may be one of the causes of cancer He emphasized the importance of adequately investigating symptoms vast number of cases particular ly if found early can be cured The average person should also know that there are no specific cures he stated lclne is very alive to this problem and is interested in passing on any advances Citizens are not aware of the enormous amount of time and sums of money that many organizations are devoting to the study of the problem good deal of citizens have spent great deal of time helping to pass on information re and thefund will provide grants all across Canada If discovery is made in Vancouver or Halifax or Organized med cholera which may kill within an hour of the first symptoms garding the problem to the public through the Canadian Cancer So ciety Another interesting feature in the ght against cancer Dr Weav told the audience is the effort that has been made by organized med lcine in keeping its own members interested and up to date on cancer roblems An interested public will keep their medical men Inter ested he suggested Cancer said the speaker Is mixture of diseases that might be liltcncd to jigsaw puzzle It is composed of many varied parts and was also secretary of the researchers can now see the pat Waterworks Commission and score tern There are many other bits tory of the village hydro the latter now bging placed position which he has still retained Scientific Advance Referring to the amount of scientific knowledge that war had been required about the disease eves over the years he told how ad vances in treatment had accompam led progress in the knowledge of the queer and multitudinous disease Surgery Xrays and radium are still the only forms of treatment but tremendous advances have been made in the techniques of each Surgery is still the most important individual branch in therapeutic treatment but techniques in the use of Xray have improved with more personnel better machines and better technicians We can nowget into deepscatcd itsion with cancerkilling rays Radium is important and useful in the treatment of some types of cancer he explained and only in the last few years has become avail able in quantity Canada has pro duced much of this radium for all parts of the world He spoke of the potential use of atomic power in the treatment of cancer telling of research being made in that field All over the world wherever radioactive sub stances are available research is going on Nuclear physicists think it will not be long before some chemical is found that has affinity to the cancer cell and can be made radioactive and taken by mouth perhaps to destroy the cell CATERING If you are havinga party and are worried about dinner arrangements let us help you We are ex pert caterers whether dinner parties wedding receptions club dinners in any type
