CANCER NEEDS EARLY DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT The recent increase in deaths from cancer that has been reported from practicclly all parts of the United State shas focusad ‘the attention of pub- de health workers on this fatal dls- ease, A nation-wide campaign to de- creasa the prevalence and reduce the mortality of caneer has been instituted by the American Society for the Con- trol of Cancer, the week of October 30- November 5 being set aside as the can- cer campaign week. In Connecticut the campaign is being carrie don by the state department of health through physicians and health officers 4cting as chairmen of the cam- paign in communities of 5,000 and over. Cancer deaths are on the increase in Connecticut and it is felt that only by education alone can the necessity of early diagnosis and treatment be brought before the attention of the peo- ple. The death rate from cancer in Connectleut is lower than the surround- Ing states aceording to the last annual report of Dr. John T." Black, state com- missioner of health. Cancer death rates per 100,000 popu- lation: Connecticut Deaths, Rate.Mass.

There are many forms of cancer com- mon_to both men and women which can be detected early in the course of their progress, being visible to the eve, one of #these being that which grows on the lip. Cancer of the lip is commonest In middle-aged <men and oceurs more ;men on the lower than on the upper tp. Within the mouth cancers very com- monly start on the tongue. Any lump on the tongue or ulcer which does not heal should be shown at once to a doctor; so also shou'd warty growths or ulcers appearing on the gums. At the other’ end of the alimentary tract cancer occurs with sad frequency in the rectum. Their presence is usually first revealed by passage of blood in the stools. This is a symptom which al- ways calls for a thorough examination by a physician. Certain cancers affect but one sex alone and may be so deep below the surface that it is not possible to make the diagnosis until the disease has progressed to a certain extent. These cancers are first noticed by the person feeling a lump beneath the skin, or may be suspected by abnormal bleeding. A leaflet containing a' few vital facts on cancer will be forwarded to anyone in Connecticut oh request by the state department of health, state capitol, Hartford, Conn. WILL USE SUMMER KITCHEN FOR COLCHESTER SCHOOLROOM A “summer kitchen" used in connec- tion with a camh has been leased by the selectmen of the town of Colches- ter for use as a school room for the sixteen children o! the Tenth School Dis- trict of that town, accordinz to George R. Sturges, legal director of the state board of education, and it is believed that the school difficulties of the dis- trict have been settled for this winter at least. ‘It is probable that the town of Col- chester will buy or lease a dwelling house and remodel it for a school house for next year. Although the children of the Tenth School District are providea for this year, plans are to be presentea to the state board of education by the disl.‘i(fi school committee and the se- leccmén for a permanent school house when the board meets at the capitol this week. Last year tha Tenth School District school house was destroyed by fire and the district had to get the use of ah unoccupied store for the remainder of the school year. The district is located in the Cedar Swamp area whose roads ars impassable in the winter, thus mak- ing it impossible to transport the dis- trict school children to anot! sehool, Because the district committee was unable to furnish adequate facilitiesr and at the time the selectmen claimed the town was mot able to do so at its ex- pensé the state board of education got the general assembly to adopt a law au- thorizing the board to intercede in towns which have a district system in behalf of adequate school facil A committee of the board has already held a public hearing in Colchest>r and it was reported that all parties were eager to provide adequate school facili- ties in the dism/ct. PLAYGROUNDS HAD DAILY ATTENDANCE AVERAGE OF 217 a close last week was very successful this year. The playgrounds were located at the Falls and on Lake street. The average daily attendance at the Falls grounds was $1 and the daily average at- tendance at Lake street was 136. The equipment’at the grounds included see saws, swings, sand piles, croquet sets. At Lake street the wading pool was pepular with the children and the base ball diemond was much in demand by the boys. She daily program at the grounds in- cluded flag exercises, games, singing, folk dancing, story telling, sewing, cro- eheting, knitting and the making of pie- ture books. A croquet tournament was arranged for the boys of the Lake strest ground and the prizes were awarded as follows: First class, Neil Murphy, first prize; Stewart Cedrone. second prize. Second class, Joseph Ruffo, first prize; John Mingo, second prize. In the girls' cro- quet contest at the Falls grounds, first prize was divided between Bertha Bannas and Annie Dzingal Prizes in sewing were awarded for the largest number of articles completed during the season. At the Falls grounds the prize went to Victoria Nowakowska who completed 14 artieles. At TLake street grounds first prize went to Ber- nica Cedrone fir six completed articles: second prize went to Irene Blanchette for five completed artieles. First prize for crocheting went to Anmie Coldarole, second prize to Elinore Regina. The playseounds had the usual cooper- ation of the public health department.

At the rear of her home are stalks eight and ten feet icent blossoms, the size of an ordinary breakfast plate, representing the English cactus varieties Califor also several varieties of the Slocum dahlia as well as many others, in all varieties. On the Brown plot on Fanning park are still others of the gorgeous specimens, which include 300 seedlings, planted less than three months ago, and called the Fanning park dah- lias. These seedlings, many of the beautiful varieties have been named for Norwich people. A large handsqme fire red dah- lia was named Howard L. Stz ton, for the chief of Norwich fire department In recogmition of his birthday August 25, a choice specimen red with golden tips, very broad petals with st-eak of gold, was goven the name of Dr. Lamb. A dainty shade of pink with Detals having the appearance of a Jack Rose was nam- ed Darling Bill, for the infant son of Mr. nd Mrs. Frank Golkowske. A buft pompon is called Little 1larbara fr Mrs. Brwn’s yungest daughter, aged about two years. . Other names of special in- terest include: Mrs. Howard L. Stan- ton, Lady Moffitt, Mrs. Ella Tibbits, Mrs. Simmons, Lafayette, Lady Dora. Donald Fraser, Thorold (A Canadian place,) Rose of New England and Lady Fanning. The Donald Fraser opened its petals on Mr. Fraser's birthday, August This beautiful seddling is hybrid peony, large, its rich maroon shading to lighter at tips, with wide flat petals about two inches at center wiht pointed: petals in- terlaced. Donald Fraser, a hero of the World war, was with the Mallet R serves as first class private in the medical corps, and died of pneumonia at Hatten- court the day before the armistice was signed November 10, 1918. He was a son of Mr. and Mrs. George Fraser, and the dahlia named for him is a loving tribute to his memory. Mrs. Brown also has among her col- lection the Robert Ogden Fletcher, a hy- brid decorative bloom, yellow at center, shading t white at tips, and flecked with red. This danty blssm was given its name last year, for another of Norwich heroes, who was Kkilled in action three years ago last August. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. iam L. Fletcher. Among the English cactus varieties, the choice ones are the Mrs. C. Cooper, a brownish tan; F. W. Fellows, orange; Alabastar, pure white; Startler, dark red; and one all by itself a Japanese chrysanthemum callel Vulcan, deep ma- roon, having at the base of each petal is a tiny white petal which adds to its beauty. Of the California specimens which are mammoth in size, conspicuous are the Mrs. Warner, George Walters, Dr. Tev- is( San Mateo, Diana and one partic- ularly rare bloom c\lled Insulinda. Among the more beautiful of the Slo- cum varieties are Glory of New Haven, pinkish lavendar; Nathanlel, golden yel- 16%; Ruth, apricot shade; Annie, golden one side and the reverse of the petals dainty rose. A salmon .!pec:msn the name of which Wwas_lost in transportation, was given the name of The Import, by the person who had sent for it. Although an amateur, Mrs. Brown has attained wonderfol success in the short While she has been growing dahlias; and th many who have visi her gardens have marveled at her paintaking care which has resulted in the thrifty ap- pearance of her many blooms, all of such gorgeous colorings.
