Tell Neighbor
Crusade Theme
“Tell Your Neighbor” is a major
theme of the American Cancer So­
ciety’s 1966 Crusade in April, Can­
cer control month.
Mrs. Bill Horn, chairman, of the
Society’s Crusade in Vernonia said:
“It is my hope that all our volun­
teers will be communicators of
hope rather than salesmen of fear.
It is hope, not fear, that makes
people take personal action against
cancer.”
