Today the Back Porch will dig into. a
_ 100-year-old mystery -- an we will point a finger,

sorta gentle like, at another.

This second one is

the Aongest an most

expensive war in hist’ry. It soaks up more millyuns
of dollars an has taken more lives than all the wars
in hist’ry... YET WE CAN’ T WIN IT!

So hand on, foiks. We are gonna take a sorta
sneaky look at CANCER RESEARCH.

First, tet’s take 4 squint at.

Daniel ’ Douglas Home. He
wus a sorta unusual critter.
Fer party tricks, you jest
cuden’t beat him!

F’rinstance, he wud pick a

hot coal frum the fireplace an

walk arount the room with it
in his hand. Jest fer an extra
kick, he wud then stick his
face in the fireplace an wash

his kisser with glowing coals! .

Wen the party got dull, he

wud riz up off the floor an
jest sorta float arount to

amuse the folks. Seems like -

one time, wen folks got real
crotchety, he riz up an writ
his name in chalk on the
ceiling!

_An wen she cum spring-
time an. wimmen folk get all

worked up fer movin’ furni- -

ture arount, he wus jest the
feller to have! Jest settin’

peaceful like, he cud lift a .

grand pianner on t’uther side
of the room an float it jest
where you wanted it. .

. HE CUDN’T EXPLAIN IT.
HE DIDEN’T DO IT FER
MONEY ... AN A HELLUV
LOT OF IMPORTANT PEG-
PLE CONFIRMED IT.
