The series is presented in co-operation with the Exeter Unit of the Society.) • In this enlightened scientific age one quarter of tete women of Canada sltill think that drinking causes cancer, Even more sur- prising, oneout of every five women questioned in a. recent nation-wide poll' thinks that im- morality 'will lead to some sort of malignant 'tumor, These common lmiseonceptions-- along with many others -were re- vealed in a recent survey spon'laor- ed ay the Canadian Institute of Public Opinion and sponsored 'by the Canadian Canter Society. Since its purpose was -to discover exactly what opinions Canadian women (held eoncernlng cancer, the survey covered a =representa- tive sample of 'women from all regions, eonditions sof •life and socioeconomic status. Altogether, more than 3,0.0,0 women were questioned. Need More Education, The results of the question- naire gave the leaders of the medical and lay 'organizations who are fighting cancer many im- portant elues as to the effective- ness of their educational pro- gramme and where more empha- sis and work is needed. There was.' for instance, Considerable difference in the amount of know- ledge possessed IbY women itth e ten different ,provinces.. The ques- tionnaire definitely indicated the need for more pulbliceedueation. The questionnaire was in tour parts, designed to discover the attitude of women towards all serious 'diseases, their knoWiledge of Cancer of ,the ;breast and uter- us, attitude towards the causes and .cure of cancer and personal experience with :the disease. The third set of questions --which will be considered here--desit, with t h e general •attitudes .towarde cancer and its :treatment; causes and fears and the importance of public discussion in combating the disease. The answers to questions con- cerning the causes of eancer in- dicated considerable confusion in the 'minds of the women .questtion- ed. This. is natural enough since science has not yet discovered o the exact reason for the disorgan- ized, unregulated growth of ,body cells which is cancer. Whereas about one quarter oaf the women believed that drink- ing and immortality had some- thing to do with !bringing about cancer, 70% of all the women questioned realized that the exact cause of cancer is not yet known. A small group (11% of the total) held the yiew that .a knock or a 'bump or a fall was the main cause of cancer. More Males Affected The questionnaire revealed that there is •considerable mis- conception regarding the :preval- ence of cancer in men and wom- en. 52% ofthe women question= ed considered females more li- able to cancer than males; only 8% considered males more sus- cep,tilble; and 31% considered both sexes equal. Actually the most recent mortality figures show that of 19,0Q0 cancer deaths in Canada in one year, 10,000 were males and 9,000 females. • Opinions on the treatment of cancer revealed a consideralble lack of knowledge and emplha- sized the importance of •public information and education. Sev- enteen per tent of those question- ed bad; never heard of radium and deep X-ray as a treatment for cancer. An astonishing 25% of those questioned kelleved that surgery increases the spread of cancer. It was apparent that many of the •taboos and mu•eh of the "hush- hush" that •surrounded the dis- ease as recently as fifteen or twenty years ago this vanished. Between S0 % and 90% of the women in .each province favoured freer 'public discussion on the symptoms and possible cures of cancer. The survey also revealed the significant fact that .fear and superstition are less in (those era eas where the Cancer Society is best organized. The 'Society; which Was organized at the request of the Canadian Medical Association and works Closely with that body, carries on a vigorous programme of lay .education lthraughout •Can•. acla, as well ms supporting re- searchi and ,assisting eaneer pa- tient The s. work c of the Society is largely xione tby volunteers and the money to supporit it is deriv- ed: from nubile subscription dur- ing the annual Cancer Campaign. LCom•ntenting on the results of the survey, the ;Society's National President, 1t•. M. tinckerfieid of Vancouver, stated that it lndi-. sates that "oonsi•i1erabie •progress has ,been, made, but a great deal more money and effort Is needed to inform the public of the symp- toms and -treatments of the dis- ease. Until we find the funda- mental cause, knowledge of the disease that will lead to early. diagnosis and treatment is our best weapon against cancer." September Bride Receives Shower On Saturday Miss Margaret Willard of Exeter was hostess ,for a miscellaneous shower at her home for Miss Margaret Thom- son, :bride -elect of Septemlber. She was presented with lovely gifts and good wishes. On Friday Mrs. Harry Beaver. was hostess to a surprise shower for her niece Miss Margaret Thom- son.
