Campaign
Puliclty
Director
An
all-out
Intensive
campaign
to
"further
trie
;onquest
of
enncer
is
now
In
full
swing.
In
short,
our
donation
is
solicited
to
help
achieve
British
Columbia's
$300,000
objective.
In
British
Columbia
the
B.C.
'Cancer
Foundation
and
the
B.C.
Branch
of
the
Canadian
Cancer
Society
are
uniting
lorces
to
combat
Canada's
No.
2
Killer,
which
annually
takes
a
terrible
toll
of
the
lives
of
more
than
14,000
Canadians,
over
half
of
whom
could
have
been
saved
had
they
been
diag-nosefi
properly
early
-enough
and
received
prompt
and
adequate
treatment.
Cancer
Is
a
subject
which
-vitally
concerns
'every
one
of
us
because
ONE
OUT
OF
EVERY
EIGHT
CANADIANS
WILL
DIE
OF
CANCER,
In
fact,
37
minutes
after
you
have
read
this
a
Canadian
will
die
from
this
scourge.
The
average
Canadian
can
do
little
to
help,
but
the
little
he
can
do
is
important
because
self-awareness
and
constant
vigilance
may
mean
'the
saving
or
prolonging
of
his
own
life
or
the
lives
of
his
loved
ones.
The
first
step
for
the
layman
is
to
make
an
annual
medical
check-up
a
"must"
on
his
health
calendar.
After
reaching
the
age
of
40
years,
the
medical
check-up
should
be
semi-annual.
The
second
step
is
to
be
ever
on
the
watch
for
the
seven
early
unmistakable
warning
signals
which
may
indicate
the
presence
of
enncer,
and
to
seek
immediate
medical
diagnosis
If
one
or
more
appear.
These
signs
are:
1.
Sores
which
do
not
heal,
particularly
on
tongue,
lips,
or
mouth.
2.
Painless
lumps
or
thickening,
especially
on
breast
or
thumb.
3.
Discharge
from
any
body
aperture.
4.
Progressive
change
in
color
or
size
of
mole,
wart,
or
birthmark.
5.
Persistent
Indigestion,
especially
over
40.
6.
Persistent
hoarseness,
unexplained
cough,
or
difficulty
In
swallowing.
7.
Any
radical
change
in
normal
bowel
habits.
Presence
of
one
or
more
-of
the
above
does
not
necessarily
mean
cancer
has
been
ontradted,
but
it
Is
not
safe
to
delay
in
seeking
medical
advice.
The
success
of
the
second
annual
Conquer
Cancer
Campaign
depends
upon
the
whole-hearted
support
of
every
British
Columbian.
