Alcoholics Anonymous I
(Prepared by The staff of Fair-
view, Inc., Ridgeway, S. C. A Chris
tian Home for helping alcoholics.)
Alcoholics Anonymous is an in
formal fellowship, without dues, of
ficers, or by-laws, bound together by
the fact that all its members are
admittedly alcoholics who want to
stop drinking, or live without alcohol.
AA, as the organization is gen
erally called, has within its ranks
men and women from all walks of
life. Doctors, ministers, bankers, law-
years, teachers, farmers and busi
nessmen as well as the various trades,
are well represented in the rankV
Beginning as a completely anony
mous organization, AA has found it
increasingly difficult to maintain
anonymity as numbers have in
creased. Membership in the United
States of America now approaches
150,000.
The large membership indicates
the soundness of the principles of
AA. Before AA, alcoholism was gen
erally considered hopeless. The medi
cal profession recognized the need of
Members Asked To
Return Cards For
Club Ladies Night —
Cards have been mailed for the
Chamber of Commerce Ladies Night
which will be held on Tuesday even
ing, October 14, af 7^T0 at Hotel Mary
Musgrove. The secretary, Miss Iona
Blakely, asked all members who have
not already done so to please return
the cards, today (Thursday) as res

morning.
The event will be informal.
the alcoholic as more than physical.
Sanitariums, even after a year or
more of expensive treatment could
boast not more than 6% rehabilita
tions.
AA has brought hope to tens of
thousands of hopeless men and wom
en who drank, ' not because they
wanted to, but because they coul4
not help themselves.’'It offers fellow
ship of* a sort iirxpossible elsewhere.
Members gladly get up-in-the middle
of the night to go and help an’ alco
holic who gives a distress call.
AA teaches ' that alcoholism is a
sickness; that it is incurable; that
the alcoholic must become a total
abstainer for life; that full surrender
of the life <0 God, and daily reliance
on God for help is essential to so
briety. '
The Twelve Steps of Alcholics
Anonymous are given below:
1. We admitted that we were pow
erless over alcohol; that our lives had
become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power
greater than ourselves could restore
us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will
and our lives over to ,the care of
God AS WE UNDERSTOOD HIM.
4. Made a searching and fearless
moral inventory, of ourselves.
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves,
and to another human being the
exact nature of our wrongs.
6. Were entirely ready to have God
remove all these defects of character.
7. Humbly asked Him to remove
our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of all the persons
we had harmed and became willing
to make amends to them all.
9. Made direct amends to such per
sons wherever possible, except when
to do so would injure them or others.
10. Continued to take personel in
ventory, and when we were wrong,
promptly admitted it.
11. Sought through prayer and
meditation to improve our conscious
contact with God AS WE UNDER
STOOD HIM, praying only for know
ledge of his will for us and the poyer
to carry it out.
Having had a spiritual experience
as a result of these steps, we tried
to carry this message to alcoholics,
and to practice these principles in
all our affairs.
