LU- i GANGER IS CURABLE IN EARLY STAGES; DELAY DANGEROUS The American Society for the Con trol of Cancer has designated the week of November 12 as National Cancer "Week. The object is to teach the public vital facts concerning cancer, eo they may receive early treatment and thereby have a greater chance of complete cure. ' During the two and one half years that the United States was engaged in the World's waf, about 80,000 sol diers were killed or died of disease. During that same time, 1SO.0O0 people died of cancer in the United States. Cancer caused more deaths in Indiana in September than any other disease. Statistics prove conclusively that can cer is on the increase. Cancer is almost exclusively a di ease of adult life. About ninety five per cent occurring after the age of So. Of all deaths over the age of 40 one in 13 men is due to cancer. Among women over thi3 age, one of eight dies of cancer. Among women over this age, one of eight dies of cancer. Be tween the ages of 35 and 45, three times as many women as men die of cancer. Between 45 and 55, twice as many. This great mortality among women is due to cancer of the breast ' and special organs of generation. Many of these cases can be cured by early treatment. At first cancer is a local disease. In practice too, it is difficult and in some cases impossible. for even the physician to recognize it in the first stage. Treatments Delayed The great difficulty is to get the pa tient to consult a physician immediate ly after he or she recognizes something Is wrong. If every case was treated ... early a much larger per cent would I- be cured. Unfortunately, statistics prove that the average cancer patient discovering something wrong, waits weeks, monthB, or even years before j seeking advice. It must be impressed tipon the patient that cancer starts from very trifling beginnings. Heredity has proved not to be a fac tor in the development of cancer. In determining whether or not a person is a good risk, life insurance com panies pay no attention to a history of cancer. Cancer is not contagious. There is no danger in treating or dres sing a case. Ordinary cleanlineps re Quires that the soiled dressings or dis charges should be handled carefully and disinfected and the dressings burned. May Not Feel Pain In all the thousands of recorded op erations for cancer, there is no report of a case acquired by any surgeon or nurse. There is a mistaken notion among the laity that cancer is always accompanied by pain. Pain is not found in the early stages of cancer but only in the late stage. If the early stage of cancer was accompanied by pain, more patients would be driven to seek advice and there would be a greater hope of cure. During cancer week a meeting will be held in each county of the state and other states to impress npon the people the necessity of an early ex amination of all cases in which there may be a suspicion of cancer, t'ree diagnostic cynics will be held in many of our larger cities. A free diagnostic rclinic will be held at the Deaconess hospital in Indian apolis to which any person may go to receive free examination by a staff of competent medical men. The Ameri can Society for the Control of Cancer does not spread alarm about cancer but brings a message of hope. Early :ancer is curable. Delay is dangerous. Be sure and attend these cancer meetings and also secure free litera ture which will tell you of the early symptoms of cancer. v THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND IND., MONDAY, NOW 13, 1922. PAGE NlNli AMUSEMENTS WASHINGTON It seems a far cry from Impersonat ing the avatar, or descendant of some racial deity, to participating in a Har vard boat race but such is the transi tion required of Rodolph Valentino, star of "The Young Rajah," a Para mount picture, which is now showing at the Washington threatre. In vision scenes he is presented as Krishna and Arujura, in highly decorative and fan ciful attire of those characters of an cient Hindu literature, while in the main story he is a popular young un versity man, an athlete and student. In reality he is a rajah who for certain reasons is left with farming people in America to be raised and educated. The fascinating story embodies a de lightful romance and Wanda Hawley interprets the feminine half of this with her accustomed charm. The boating scenes were made near San Francisco in co-operation with the University of California crew. MURRETTE Gloria Swanson proved more charm ing than ever in her latest Paramount picture, "Her Gilded Cage," which was shown at the Murrette theatre last night. In this new Sam Wood production Miss Swanson emerges, for a few epi sodes, from the conventional fashion creations which have caused her to become known as the fashion model of the screen, and apears in some pret ty theatrical and dancing costumes which accentuate her beauty and lend her a fascination not before revealed The star displays exceptional talent as a dancer and entertainer. The set tings and costumes, the cast, including David Powell, Harrison Ford, Anne Cornwall Walter Hiers and Charles Persimmons are artificially ripened by placing them in chambers filled with carbon dioxide gas.

All ends hap pily, however, snd the picture is de lightful entertainment for the average motion picture audience. V " MURRAY The last picture made by the late William D. Taylor, the -Paramount di rector who recently was the victim of a mysterious assassination in Holly- York," a Paramount picture starring May McAvoyW It is said that Mr. Taylor's directorial art never was more conspicuously displayed in a pic ture production than in this delightful story of tenement and department store life in a great city. Miss McAvoy has the role of a New York tenement girl who clerk3 in the toy section of a huge department store and during the Christmas rush is featured as an animated doll at the toy counter, to attract customers and amuse the children. The tragic home life of the girl, in decided contrast to her gay trappings and light-hearted manners as the doll make a story full of colorful scenes and gripping in tensity. - "The Top of New York" which Is be ing shown at the Murray theatre was written by Sonya Levien. Walter Mc Grail is leading man and heads an unusually clever supporting cast of players. 200 FOUNTAIN CITY. TAXPAYERS PETITION FOR AUTO FIRE TRUCK (Special to The Palladium) FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind, Nov. 13 A petition, already signed by more than 200 taxpayers, asking the purchase of a motor chemical truck to provide ade quate protection for the town will soon be presented to the town board. - The only fire fighting equipment Fountain City has is a Hand-drawn hand-operated chemical wagon. It eti'J operates satisfactorily although it has been in service a number of years, but citizens realize that because of thy time it takes to get the apparatus to the scene of, a fire there is always a danger of a eeriou3 conflagration. Members of the town board said to be considering the question of interest ing farmers living within a radius of three miles of Fountain City in co-op erating with the,town in the purchase of a motor chemical truck. It has been suggested that farmers living near Fountain City who desire to have adequate fire protection for their properties be asked to make con tributions to the purchase 'of the motor truck and annual contributions toward the maintenance of the service. Resi dents of the town would contribute to a fund for the purchase of the truck and towards the maintenance of the service either by voluntary subscrip tions or through a special town tax.
