The heart of Easter is the re. '

His Gospel. When We review the

learn that they centred their evan. •

-Combatting Cancer
The . extensive , death toll in our
population now credited to cancer
in its many forms becomes more
formidable because the realization
of its scope is now beginning' to be
brought ° home.
The' time is passing when the,
very word )'cancer',' :was taboo, like
something indecent,- sol`nething to be
shunned by "nice people"; such as
four letter words or mention of
venereal disease.
Actually, , the ,really decent
thing, in terms of rendering a -valu-
able service to mankind, is to bring
the matter out into the open. with
better opportunites'for understand-
ing and , solving the complex. prob-
lems associated with the nature of
cancer, how it may be retarded or
arrested, ' and just as •important as
anything else, how it may be pre-
vented.
It is significant that the medi-
