(i. mm & ,'iOLiU, £ S T A B l I S H £ D N 18 8 I TUI dmd CAPITAL AND SURPLUS $625,000 - MEMBER - FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION Alcoholism is a progressive ill ness which, between the first drink and the grave, follows a fairly well defined course, ac cording to a statement from Fair- view Center, Ridgeway, S. C., where more than 1,000'alcoholics have received free^reatment dur ing ttye' past five years. With present knowledge alco holism is incurable. ‘‘Once an alcoholic, always one drink away from a drunk” base become al most universally accepted among therapists working with alcohol ics, according to Rev. Maxie C. Collins, director of Fairview. Th ceourse of alcoholism al ways worsens. Careful examina tion of several hundred alcoholics who have remained sober for two years or more and returned to drinking indicates that the illness or loss of control over drinking continues to worsen even during the period of sobriety. “The drinking bout after a period of sebriety is usually wore than the last one before the period of so briety began, indicating that the deterioration of control continues regardless of whether the patient drinks or not, though perhaps not as rapidly during sobriety as dur ing drinking," Mr. Collins said. Twelve stages of alcoholism have beea definecj by therapists, and are given in digest form be low. (1) You begin to drink, mod erately in your opinion. Now and then you take too much, but next morning you can’t stand the sight of the stuff. (2) You are drinking more than formerly. You get “high” with some regularity, perhaps o n week-ends. You associate with a drinking crowd. You are sure you can stop any time you want to stop. During this stage you may have your first blackout, or loss of memory of events during the drinking period, or part of it. (3) Gradually your taste for alcohol grows stronger. You sneak drinks at parties, take two or three more than was normal in. stage two, gulp down your drink hurriedly and look for another. You are now drinking for the ef fect and not to be sociable. (4) Every time you take a drink, you drink more than you intended. You promise yourself, “I will limit myself to one or two,” but wind up taking a dozen. (5) You begin to make excuses for your drinking. “It is a hot day or a cold day;” “ My feet hurt;” “I need to relax;” “My wife nags me”; “The boss is un fair;” any excuse will do. (6) You need a drink next morning. This is always a posi tive sign of advanced alcoholism. (7) You begin to drink alone. Whether in yuor room, in a bar, or in a crowd, you are alone with your fancies. Alcohol has become a means of escape from the real ity of this world. (8) You become destructive in your attitudes; highly criitcal of others; suspicious; feel rejected and unloved. People do not un derstand you. Quick flareups of anger; sudden rages; rough prac tical jokes may mark this stage. (9) You begin to go on bend ers. You have become a compul sion drinker. The morning drink is now routine, and you may not be able to shave until you have had a drink to steady your nerves. At this stage you use up your resources for alcohol. If money gives out, you pawn what you have, beg, borrow or steal in order to get just one more drink. (10) In the brief intervals when you are sober, you may feel re morse and worry over the mis erable mess you have made of your life, but you no longer have the moral resourcse to face real ity, so begin to drink to escape worry over the mess alcohol has made of your life. (11) You walk with terror night and day. Your hands^trem ble, your nerves are shot, you never sleep except when under the influence of alchool dr drugs. Friends dodge you, for you al ways want a “loan”; your job is gone; your family has left you or your home life has become a con stant misery for all except your self. (12) You wake up one night or morning, in a hospital, in jail, or in a hotel room or maybe even in your own home ^f you still have one. You do not remember how you got there. You are sick and miserable physically, mental ly, spiritually. Despair over whelms you. You have had De lirium Tremens or convulsions. You are possibly half starved from drinking and not eating. Your nerves are screaming. Your brain is in a fog. At last you may admit that you are an alco holic; that you cannot handle al-, cohol, for alcohol handles you. In stage twelve you have two choices: stop drinking and start the long, hard, anr rough road back to sobriety and useful liv ing, or die. held on the I4th day of August, 1956, in all the regular primary voting precincts of Laurens coun ty school districts No. 35 and 56.

This means that a bone in the spine is knocked out of line and- thus is pressing on the spinal cord. Such a condition is sure to cause trouble later— maybe even years later. We have found that many people who were suffering from various conditions remember that they were not sick before they had a fall or acci dent. Think of the suffering they would have missed if, immediately after the fall, they had gotten their spines checked by a Chiropractor. Any of you who are reading this now and are sick think back and see if you can remember any fall or accident that you have had—then see if you can remember being sick before that accident. One case I had in the Clinic had arthritis, was very nervous and their appetite was very poor. Also they were constipated. This case had suffered for six years. I asked if they could remember having a fall or any kind of an accident before they got sick? Upon examining their mind they’did re member falling from a ladder while cleaning windows. They could not re member being sick before'that. X-rays of this case’s spine showed where two segments were knocked out of line. These two segments were pressing on nerves leading to the stomach and large intestine making it impossible for these organs to function properly. Also these segments were causing pressure on the nerves controlling the calcium balance in the body thus causing the arthritis. Adjustments to replace these segments to their proper positions were given and in time this case was well. You see, if this person had known to see a Chiropractor just after the fall from the lad der, all this suffering would not have had to be. ‘YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TO GET YOUR SPINE CHECKED!”. 4 HOURS: 9 A.
