‘‘Newspaper advertising, next to
the news column of the honest
press, can be, And almost gen
erally is, a forceful influence for
the community’s good. Newspaper
Advertising is as good for the in
dividual who reads It as for the
business which uses It.
"It is almost inconceivable-a
community without a newspaper
and without advertising of one
kind and another. V's know which
foods are healthful through news
paper edvertising. Our ideas of
lioine charm, home health, home
comforts come from newspaper ad
vertising. The advertiser has de
veloped a sense of pleasant taste.
Advertising is good reading. It
is usually good English, even
good literature. It is cultural
influence. In recent years adver
tising has been giving us the best
in art. __
"Society—every class—owes a
debt to the nian behind intelligent
use of newspaper space to adver
tise his product. Foi\ the most
part he is trustworthy. The dis
honesty advertiser is out of the
picture, or on the way out. Thru
self scrunlty, thru pressure from
newspaper eiecutives and thru re
alization that false, blatant. It
responsible advertisin'* in the to**
run Just doesn't pay the adver

"As for the advertiser, his busi

dom. The chestnut about the
mouse trap and the world beating
a path to its inventor's door ts
full of worms. The mouse trap
inventor and the butcher and
baker and candlestick maker are

vertising for their sails, they are
sunk.
EXAMINATIONS URGED TO
HALT CANCER SPREAD
Every girl whose mother has
cancer should have a thorough
physical examination each six
months until 35 years old, and
each four months past that age,
since cancer is much more pre
valent among women than men.
■ That warning was given at
Meany Hall at the University of
Washington by Dr. Clarence Cook
Little, former president of the
University of Michigan and presi
dent of the American Society for
fb* Control of Curtr. Dr. Lit
tle’s lecture, "The Heredity of
Cancer," was sponsored by the
King County Medical Society.
120,000 Mice Used
Dr. Little, considered one of the
leading medical research workers
in the country, told of extensive
experiments carried on with more
than 120,000 mice the past tWelvo
years.
"Cancer is no longer a disease
to arouse fear, because in early
stages it can be fully cured in
nine cases out of ten. If it ap
pears in your family, check up, be
careful — but don’t get panicky!"
The noted medteul scientist
said the most modern studies to |
data have approved only three
methods of cure; X-ray, radium
and surgery.
t’nacer Clinics Approved
Dr. Little stated that the Am
erican College of Surgeons has I
approved two cancer clinics In j
Washington, the King County Hus 1

Seattle. He praised „he experi
