J kills 1,000 Canadians every month. One out of every eight persons now living must expect die of cancer, unless far-reaching preventive measures are taken. Cancer is a deadly killer unless the patient • seeks early medical advice. But when caught in its early stages, cancer is generally curable. The cause of cancer is still unknown, and there is yet no specific cure. But if diagnosed5’* in time and treated by surgery, x-ray or radium, a cure can be effected in a majority of all cancer cases.*. It is now proposed to organize an energetic campaign in Ontario against cancer in all its forms. This campaign will have the follow­ ing objectives: 1—To organise and operate fully equipped cancer clinics at suitable centres, where people may be ex­ amined, and, if necessary, treated according to the most scientific methods, 2—To pay a portion of the cost of treatment of cancer for those needing financial help, 3— To pay travelling expenses to and from clinics if needed. 4— To' conduct an energetic program of cancer research. To carry out this program, the first need is money. Your donation will definitely help to reduce the number of deaths from cancer in this province. It will help hundreds of people to be medically examined in -time and to escape from the deadly clutches of cancer. It may well help research scientists to dis­ cover a cure for cancer and so free mankind forever from the dread scourge of cancer. This appeal is for an objective of $2,000,000 to provide for a three-year program of cancer research, treatment and province-wide service. Thl» organlzed drive against cancer is a join! effort of The Ontario Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation and The Canadian Cancer Socioty.

Do you re­ member ’way back when bananas were considered indigestible, par­ ticularly for children? That idea has been refuted by nutritionists and pediatricians who today recom­ mend mashed ripe bananas as one of the baby’s first solid foods. More bananas are on the market this winter than there have been for a number,of years. And while there is^no great abundance, even now, you can occasionally buy enough bananas for a treat dessert, salad, cake or pie. Bananas are sold by the pound, one pound averaging 4 bananas of medium size. If the bananas are slightly green, allow them to ripeh at room temperature, not in the re­ frigerator. Cold temperatures pre­ vent proper ripening. For best eating, infant feeding and as an ingredient in baking, the fruit should be yellow, flecked with -brown. At this stage it is sweet and mellow and thoroughly digestible. A 'banana tipped with green is only pulp is firm, tart, Such ban- eaten raw. * Cool on cake frost top of of icing.
