The Pierceton Press, captivated by Mr. Tennant and his old car, wrote a store- about them in November 1963.. The Ford Motor Co. in Detroit wrote The Press and Mr. Tennant a letter of commendation on our treatment of their product. Kerlin Motors ran a newspaper ad. shouting. “See what Ford’s will do!” It appears the old car isn't done yet. If Dr. Tennant and Mr. Reeg have their way. the old Model A will be around for a long time. As Dean Kerlin of Kerlin Motors states m an advertisement in this issue. "Another Ford car is going to auto heaven!’

Our Health by J. M. Amberson, M.D. Cancer Nearly 300,000 people will die of cancer this year. Many of these deaths will be needless for, though the cause of cancer reg mains largely a St mystery, the v W disease itself is •"** often curable. In fact, there ' ’‘Mel ate an estiL Ajk,’■‘"TSjy mated 1,400,000 people alive in the United States today who once had cancer and who now are curedl Cancer is characterized by the abnormal growth and spread of cells. It begins when a cell nucleus mysteriously changes. This altered cell then multiplies rapidly, until eventually the neighboring normal cells are choked and starved by the abnormal ones. The process can be checked, however, by surgery, x-ray, and radioactive substances. And recent discoveries in biochemical research have led to new treatments with drugs, chemicals and hormones which have already shown encouraging results. At the beginning of the disease, the altered cells remain "localized” and when it is discovered in this stage cancer is almost always curable. But even if it escapes detection and continues to the next stage—the invasion of other tissues-it still can be treated successfully. Obviously, therefore, it is essential to stop cancer in its earliest stages. Be on guard for the seven danger signals: unusual bleeding or discharge; a lump or thickening in any part of the body; a sore that doesn’t heal; change in bowel or bladder habits; hoarseness or cough; indigestion or difficulty in swallowing; change in color or size of a wart or mole. Any of these conditions may be a sign of cancer. If any one of these danger signals lasts longer than two weeks, see your family doctor. Better yet, get in the habit now of having a complete medical checkup at least once a year. ♦ ♦ • If you wish FREE copies of recent Our Health Columns you may have missed, write to Dr! J. M.

It is eqe—ly critical at air terminals. With the steady growth of air traffic, control towers are hard put to guide traffic into and out of the terminal. A new system, designed to facilitate the movement of aircraft f \"i touchdown to terminal and from terminal to take-off. will ease the problem. Instead of oral instructions to the pilot, which may be misunderstood, the new system achieves complete visual guidance from the tower. The ground controller has before him a visual pattern of each runway and taxway and selects the path he wants the plane to follow. A sweep of a stylus over tha runway diagram in the tower sets up a brilliantly lighted path for the pilot. The pilot has only to follow the lights which chart a straight course to the air or to the airline terminal. Called the Arrow System, and made by the Eagle Signal Division of the E. W. Bliss Company, it provides complete “Safety on Sight.” Little or no voice contact is necessary.

One of the simplest ways to bring the youngsters in on the decorating project can be found at your food store, service station, or wherever you purchase the family refreshment. Cartons of Coca-Cola during the holidays will also contain folders with unique cutouts of Yuletide figures. They’re so simple to assemble. Just cut, score, fold and paste. Presto! You have a cheery Santa to top off a tray }f goodies, a wise man in royal purple to preside over gifts on a party table. Give the traditional decorations a new look with angels of palest pink to hot orange, and deck the tree with colorful snowflakes, stars and partridges in pear trees. Six different folders are available, each containing a
