Find No Definite Cure for Cancer Dr. Blackader Returns From 1 Conference Held at _ Cardiff "Canada is well equipped, and as far ahead as anyone else in the treat, ment of cancer and other diseases of this kind," stated Dr. A. Blaekader, WD., who returned from the Old Country, where he attended a medical ‘conference in thrrdifr. He said that a great many reports on cancer and consumption were received at the con- ference, but nothing was definite. The Blair-Bell “lead cure” was discussed, but was found to be only ofheaeious in certain forms of cancer. Other cures were discovered to be the same. "It all comes to tho some thing. We are really no further ahead now than we have been as fur as cancer; is concerned.

While still a boy in his 'teens he Joined the ranks of royal authors" when the Journals kept by himself and his brother, the young Duke ot Clarence, were pub. lished after a long tour as middies in a naval vessel. Some years ago these diaries ot His Majesty’s youth played a part in clear. Ing up some points in dispute in the annals of Annapolis Royal in Nova Scotia. As a young man, then Prince George, he and some friends left the| ship to which they were attached ati, Halifax and Journeyed inland tor sport 1 and pleasure. In addition to the) prince there were in the party Cap-i tam Francis Durrant, Lieutenant the; Hon. B. Colville. R.N. (now A.D.C. to' the King), Paymnster George A. F. C. Scales. They stayed three days in Annapolis in what is now Hillsdale House, went fishing in nearby rivers, 'drove to neighboring towns and inves- Itigated the ruined and deserted fort, ‘abandoned thirty years previously by I British troops. During their stay the young ”moors. ', had their afternoon tea, English tash-' ion, at Hillstlule House. The hostcss; was famous for her cooking, and wan notable even among the excellent! Nova Scottan housewives. And the; scones she served them were without! doubt the best her hands could turni out. Sixteen years later. in 1900,] Lieut. Colville returned, as Capt. Cori ville.
