SYNTHETIC RUBBER TESTED
IN SURREY?
Farnconthe Man's Sersaational
Discovery
a• •
To Provide Funds for Cancer
Research
Mr. 'rorranee Galbraith of Farn-
tombe, formerly of Bluevale, Hurn
County, Ontario, and who resides at
57 Walnut Street, .Londen, Canada,
claims to have discovered a cue for
cancer and the lcey to the secret of
-synthetic rubber.
If the discoveries bear inves aga-
tion, and so far they have passed every
test, they will be the most sensational
of thd past few years.
Mr. Galbraith, who lives with his
mothen-in-law, Mrss Wiles, at Farn-
combe, is a Canadian veterinary sur-
geon with medical degrees and, has
foryearspast been interested in can-
cer research work. In conjunction
with Dr. Vagner, of Canada,,hedis-
covered an anti cancer serum and so
far this appearsto havebrought a-
bout tangible results'.
Mr. Galbraith actually did, it is sta-,,
ted, inoculate himself with a cancer
-
symptoms of the malady. The injec-
tion of the. serum brought about a
complete cure. Since that time other
patients have been experimented. upon
with satisfactory rasults.
The natural outcome was that 'the
discovery was notified to several me-
dical associations- but owing to the
.fact that:1%ft was thought desirable to
retain the secret of the serum for „a
while the matter was not taken up as
it should have beea and doubts were
generaaly expaessed as to the efficacy
,of the treatansent.
With the intention of placing the dis
covery before- the Cancer Research
Association, Mr. Galbraith came to
-England and submitted' the serum. De-
tails of the composition of the serum
were asked for but these were refused
Mr. Galbraith as now taleing steps to
nrotect his right with regaa,d to it
and expresses, willingness to comply
with the 'demands of the association
.as soon as the patent becomes oper-
ative...When this takes place interest-
ing results are expected.
His passion for creative work also
led Mr. Galbraith to search for a
chemical substitute for rubber. This
he believed he would, if successful, pro
vide funds for his cancer resea.tch
work,
After patient endeaveur and thou-
sands of experiments he succeeded
in, evolving a substance possessing
many of the attributes of rubber in
.cluding elasticity, durability and re-
silience, .
The compound will stretch seven
•tunes its length and is stated to be
an acceptelmbstitute for rubber in
every way. • ,
-A firm of rujsber mantifacturers of
national nepute are investigating the'
discovery. So far, every test demand-
ed has been Passed and everyone
teeins sanguine about the ultimate re-
sult.
If synthetic rubber has really been
discovered a sensation on the E' -
change is inevitable. It will be one
of the most vital discoverie,a of mod-
ern tunes and isyevolutiornse more
than one indestry.
As it is also claimed, that the sub-
stance is infinitely cheaper to inanua
facture than ordinary rubber can be
obtained, the discovery is not with-
out pleasing features.
It is difficult to adequately eaaplain
the full extent of what the discovery
may meae. The problem • of the
,sources of supply of rubber tnay be
immediately solved. The esent
stock of Tubber comes fromthe rabs
bcr plants of Alike, parts of India,
ethe Amazon. Valley, , Brazil, Ceylon
and the Malay Peninsula. If• milker
can be made artificially the economic
vaine of the discovery will be readily
lecognized.
The uses to which the synthetic
rubber may be put are well known'
In the home, the hall, kitchen, nur-
sery and bathroom may ale fernished
,altnost entirely in rubber and provide
ifivititig examples of the hygienic
and artistic appeal of rubber walls
and flooring. It seems superfluous to
lineation the cleanliness and darabil-
ity of rubber."
There are taa,ny doznestie articles,
ado, in the ,cemposition of Which
rubber may play anImportant part
It has been computed that there are
many thousands of uses lor rabbev
and there can be no doubt that it is
one of the most generally ttseful pro-
ducts in the world, Rubber has stir-
tounded our daily lives to aa eatent

that it is almost imposaible to realtse.
It his proved itself unequalled for
adaptability to all purposes,
Now that Mr, Galbraith has claim:.
'ed to have,. succeeded in producing
synthetic rubber no one can tell what
the future 'holds in store for the in-
dustry. Synthetic rubber, it is o .ted,
can be produced at a much cheaper
tog than that involved in the obtain-
ing of the usual type of rubber, and
that, of course, is a vitally important
fact.
The experts, who are engaged in
the analysis of the discovery, have
found no cause to doubt its genuine
nature. The experiments should soon
be concluded and, if a ftivOttra.ble re.
port 18 ••inade sytithetic rubber will
soon be on the mari et. rt IS under -

Dear Friends of the home church:
"As your missionary I must drop

safely at our own home about two
weeks ago. Tonight I have also ail

You will renlember that when I was
coming home last year I brought our
littlest one and we dedicated her, in
baptism in the Auburn church. I had
hoped that she might be, your repre-
sentative when I retired, but last
night her little spirit' was called home
and we have fier no moreaShe was ill
one week with dysentry ands after a
brave little fight had to give up. I
know we have the sympathy of the
whole church in our perpsonal loss,
and as I love the Auburn church so
much my heart *ens there at tine
