"Let's face
up to
CANCER"
•By R. M. ALDIS, M.D., D.P.H.
Huron Medical Officer of Health
"Cancer remains as one of our leading health problems. The quest
for its origins continues in countless research centres across the- world.
"Hope for cancer patients does exist, however, and is built upon
early diagnosis and early treatment. This means regular checkups from
your physician.
"Quacks attract geese. Beware of persons who advertise or
promise 'cures/
Remember that officially recognized treatments include surgery
and/or x-ray or radium. In some forms of the disease specific drugs have
been used with encouraging results.
"Referred clinics are frequently used by the doctor in dealing with
special problems of diagnosis or treatment. In this area, the Ontario Cancer
Foundation operates such a clinic at the Victoria Hospital, London.
"Despite our splendid facilities for fighting cancer, a high per-
Centage of cancer deaths are still persons who were victims of their own
procrastination."
THE WORK IN HURON•
In 1961, with the help of many conscientious volunteers and the
