CAMPAIGN FOR
CANCER CONTROL
FUNDSJUCCESS
Volunteer Canvassers Give
Out Literature to
Fight Disease ^
The drive for funds to fight cancer
was launched in Clare Tuesday morn
ing by an enthusiastic group. Twenty-two workers met at the Doherty
Hotel for breakfast.
Harold Hughes .campaign chairman
opened the meeting and introduced
Dr. McArthur, who spoke briefly on
the importance of a county unit. Joe
Motel, Field Representative for the
Cancer Society, addressed the group
and gave them soms very forceful
and important facts on cancer control.
Mrs. Willard Bicknell, chairman.of
the County Unit, presented the workers with their campaign material
and the drive was off to a fine start.
The American Cancer Society points
out that there are three acceptable
methods of treating cancer—surgery,
radium- and x-ray. To recognize this
fact, coupled with the knowledge that
in many cases early cancer can be
cured, the threat of this scourge can
be faced with courage and realism.
The truth about cancer should be
spread with the zeal of a missionary.
Not only did the society ask for funds
but every volunteer canvasser in this
county handed out literature that
tells what to do to safeguard your life
against the disease.
Clare, with her usual civic spirit,
cooperated and by noon the quota
was over the top. A complete report
will be presented next week.
Mrs. Elizabeth Jane Gleason, recently of Bay City, who with her husband, the late Wm. C. Gleason, resided

of her birth and in August, 1874, was

In 1917 Mr. and Mrs. Gleason came
to Clare county, purchasing the Rob-

much enjoyed playmate.' He was a
very dependable, manly little fellow.
His ways were steady and quiet, yet
he entered into play with much zest
and ability. He will be greatly missed
from the schoolroom and playground.
One could not know David without
loving him. He won love antf re^

mature beyond his tender years and
was very responsive to worthwhile
things., JUst a few days before his
death, while in conversation with
other children and his teacher at
school, lie volunteered the statement,
"I love Jesus." He *also indicated
positively that Heaven would be his
final destination. Little did we dream

not here,  but  they  know  that now
his happy laughter is ringing in Celestial Gardens and Heaven seems near-
