The Fear Of Cancer
,.Many people spend a large part
of..their lives worrying over what
they fear might be cancer. If there
are any symptoms on wbioh to base
those fears, a doctor should be
consulted immediately, or, if there
is one in the area, a cancer clinic.
The examination may set your
mind free from the fear of the
disease, If there is any basis for
your fears, it will be possible for
treatment to be given immediate-
ly, Many cancers are curable if
caught in time.
The Senior Citizen's Diet
Older people are often found to
be suffering from malnutrition from
various causes — economic condi-
tions, dental troubles or ignorance
of proper nutritional principles.
There are certain rules for the
correct selection and preparation
of foods which will provide the
nutritives necessary to the older
bodies. "Canada's Food Rules" may
be obtained free of charge from
your local or provincial department
of health.
Precious Eyesight
When a man loses a limb or his
teeth, or his hearing becomes im-
paired, there are artificial substi-,
Lutes or aids he can purchase to
help him sustain the loss, but there
is no substitute for lost eyesight.
Only by care and good treatment
can you expect a lifetime of s r-
viee from your eyes. Don't reld
or do. close work under poor light-
ing conditions; protect your eyes
from glare, flying particles and
strain. Periodic examination of
your eyes, especially after +0 years
of age, is essential to prevent the
unsuspected onset of eye diseases
and for the provision of necessary
glasses. Always consult a medical
eye doctor.
