J-fbat Immunity To Cancer May Result- From, Research Work. Mr. Hugh J. Creech, M.A., of the Banting Institute, Toronto, son of Mr. and Mrs. R. N. Creech, of town, read a paper before the medical re search men from all over Canada attending the Royal Society of Can ada, medical science section, in Tor onto Friday of last week. The Tor onto Star reports as follows; “Medical research men working under the direction of Sir Frederick Banting at the Banting Laboratories hope that “immunity against cancer may ultimately <be achieved.” This was revealed today by H. J. Creech in a paper read before medical re search men from all over Canada, at tending the Royal Society of Can ada, medical science section. In the paper by Dr. W. R. Franks and Mr. Creech, who have been en gaged on this research, it was dis closed that a vaccine is now being tested on laboratory animals prin cipally rats and mice} at the Banting laboratory. Protection of human beings by the new vaccine has not been at tempted, and will not 'be at the pres ent. In reply to a query from Wash ington, Dr. Franks replied. “We have no evidence that we have suc ceeded in producing a vaccine to protect against cancer. We do not know yet whether the union between the antibody produced in laboratory animals and cancer producing chem icals checks the power of the latter to cause cancer.” It is an this problem that the men at the Banting laboratory have been working for four years. IThe vaccine was made by combin ing various proteins of the type which includes the white of eggs, with cancer-producing substances such as certain coil-tar or antha- cene derivatives. This material and ■other substances have been injected into laboratory rats and mice and other laboratory animals. Although the paper read to the Royal Society was extremely tech nical, describing the various chem ical antigens obtained from cancer producing substances, it was indi cated that, after the injections, the blood of these animals contained subtances which united with the can cer-pr o ducing chemicals. The laboratory is now trying to produce cancer in these and control animals, to learn whether something has been produced to afford immun ity against cancer.’ Dr. Marie Hearne read a paper at the Canadian Physiological Society meeting in London on May 25th in which she presented the results of her research on the effect o-f cancer producing chemicals on animal tis sues.

SPONSORS “BIG BROTHER” MOVEMENT T'he St. Catharines Standard on Saturday last announces the organ ization of the Big Brother Move ment in that city sponsored by Judge J. G, Stanbury, formerly of Exeter. The Standard says as follows: “A St. Catharines Branch of the Big Brother Federation was formed last evening at a largely attended meeting held in the court room of the county building. His Honour, Judge J. G- Stanbury who called the meeting, presided as chairman ano explained the activity of such an or ganization. The judge pointed out that a big Brother movement was not only to guide youths who had come into the hand.' of the juvenile court, but to provide a leadership among boys which will keep them out of court giving them the same opportunity as more fortunate lads. The Big Brother movement it was explained, would not interfere, with the present activity of service organ izations, but would co-ordinate this work. During the general discussion, the slot machines were given several body blows. Aid. W. E. Affleck who staged a losing battle against the machines in city council, declared the plan to oust the machines was dormant and not dead. He declared that slot machines were a real evil. Judge Stanbury replied that the evil of the machines had been brought forcibly to the attention of the juvenile court, it having been ascertained in a majority of cases of juvenile theft that the boys stole to play the slot machines. “As ju venile judge, I would find it a great help, if the slot machines could be abolished,” he declared. Officers were elected and repre sentatives appointed for the various churches: “Big Brother” iSpeaking editorially the Standard pays tribute to Judge Stanbury as ■follows: . “There is a report in The .Stan dard today of the formation of the “Big Brother” movement. It is a satisfaction and a delight that this movement has (been inspired by His Honour, Judge Stanbury of.the Co. Court of Lincoln. It is not for one moment submitted that.His Honour is associating himself with this fine effort be'cause he is the Judge, and the man who presides over the Ju venile Court. It is because the Judge is a man, very higthly imbued with thoste aspirations of service to humanity and his neighbors and the community in which he lives... It is a nice thing to have a‘man in the highly responsible position of Judge iStanbwry, who is determined to help the young, the oppressed and distressed. Could there be anything much better than this “Big Brother” movement, which he has launched and of which he must be, by example and force of character, the spiritual and moral head?” HURONDALE The regular monthly meeting of the Hurondale W.
