"Fight Cancer with Knowledge": A doctor-penned public health pamphlet published with the aim of educating the general public about the "Prevention of Cancer". Describes cancer as "the greatest of all the natural hazards in the adventure of living", and outlines the current theories about causes of cancer investigated by the medical community in 1927: "Parasitic Theory" and "Heredity".
