Maxwell S. Green, a prominent
Chicago insurance man, was thru
Alaska in 1927, taking the Circle
Trip from Dawson around to Sew
ard. In a letter written some
time ago, among other things,
'says:
“Please accept my hearty thanks
for the various news items sent
me, same is very interesting.
t “On March 10, I hope to sail
f from New York on a cruise in the
* opposite direction by way of the
Panama Canal to San Francisco..
However, I am a regular Alaska
boaster, and have hopes of going
over the route again as soon as
'the roa dis finished to the base
of Mt. McKinley.”
;♦ i J. W. Peek, a prominent busi
; | ness man of El Paso, Texas, has
' made two trips to Alaska. On one
! of them he was on a hunting trip
, to the White River country. His
next trip took him in via Fair
banks and out to Seward. Writ
| ing some time ago, he says, among
: other things:
I "I received your Christmas card
j a few days ago and I certainly
| appreciated it very much. It was
i like a breath of fresh air from
the cold North.
"I had quite a little talk with
the Franklins upon their return
and they repeatedly mentioned to
me how nice and courteous you
were to them while they we*c
there. I wish to assure you that
I appreciate the attention which
you extended to them, for they
were personal friends and neigh
bors of mine for quite a while. If
everything goes well I will, in all
probability, be back in the North
to see you an'd some of my other
good Alaska friends in 1931.”

Cancer causes one of the every
eight deaths among men between
the ages of 45 and 70 and causes
| one of every five deaths among«
| women between 45 and 65 years
; of age, the United States Public
Health Service pointed out August
1, in urging all people over 35
years old to be examined by a
physician at least once annually
and to secure prompt treatment
of all sores, or persistent lump
formations, regardless of how in
significant such minor afflictions
may seem,
j “Many cases of cancer can be
; cured and many more prevented,
| if the general public will give its
i full cooperation to the medical
! profession, which is striving to
I eliminate this disease,” it is as
I serted.
It is the general opinion of sci
entists that cancer is at first a
local disease. Something goes
wrong with the regulating mech
anism of the body, and as a re
sult the unwholesome persistent
growth begins, and once begun it
can not stop itself, but must be
j removed or destroyed,
t Cancer may occur anywhere on
| the outside or the inside of the
| body. It* is always small in the
| beginning. When it occurs on the
outside it is much easier to dis
cover in its early stages. It is at
this time that effective action
against the growth is most likely
to result in a cure. After par
ticles of the cancer have found
their way to other parts of the
body and give rise to new cancers,
the situation is much more ser
ious. For, to cure the patient, it
is necessary to find out where
these new centers are and then
they must all be removed.
Cancer is much more likely to
make an attack after the age of
35 than before that time, and |
consequently the death rate is!
higher in certain age groups than ;
in others. Among all deaths in j
men between the ages of 45 and !
70, one in eight is due to cancer,
and among all the deaths which
occur among women between 45
and 65, one in five is caused by
cancer. There are no reliable
statistics to show how many cases j
occur apart from deaths.
The most- prevalent site of fatal j
cancer is the stomach, with 33 j
per cent of the total. The female j
genital organs were the site of I
fatal cancer in 14 per cent of all j
deaths. Cancer of the breast J
caused 9 per cent of all fatal
cases. Cancer of the skin causes
3 per cent of the cancer deaths.
There is evidence to show that
cancer itself is not hereditary, al
though a certain susceptibility to
ward the disease seems to exist
among the members of some fam
ilies. This particular phase of the
problem is now' being thoroughly
studied by a number of investi
gators.
Joe Curtain, about 45 years of
age and well known around Sew
