searchers are now trying them on
plants. They say tranquilizers help
the plants withstand the strain of
^ the weather such as light frost,
drought, prolonged heat spells, and

Ridge community. With as much
interest in forestry as we are now
Iuving, I believe rt would be wise
to learn to take care of the trees

have weeds and insects that prevent
growth. The same is true with pine
trees. This demonstration is to cov

than a life time to make money.

Rehabilitation Center
Ridgeway, S, C.
Alcoholism affects an estimated
5,000,000 men and women in the
United States.. It is generally agreed
that the cause of alcoholism is un
known. and that with present know
ledge it is incurable. It has been
recognized b y the A men can Med
ical Association as a treatable ill
ness, and can be arrested with the
cooperation of the patient
Early diagnosis is as important
in alcoholism as in tuberculosis or
cancer, because alcoholism is a pro
gressive illness, always getting
worse until death results unless ar
rested. The longer it goes uncheck
ed the less likelihood there is of
recovery. To aid in early diagnosis
these symptoms are published.
It should be stressed that any
one who takes a drink of alcohol
may become an alcoobc There is
no special type of personality among
alcoholics The alcoholic is simply
a human being with a problem.
Therefore anyone who drinks alco
hol should carefully check himself
periodically to ascertain whether
or not he is becoming an alcoholic.
No. 1
EARY STAGE SYMPTOMS
(Usually between ages 14 and 32
years. May occur at any age. )
1. Alcohol MEANS MORE to the
early stage alcoholic than to others
in his social group.
2. The early stage alcohohc is
usually preoccupied with alcohol;
thinks about it a lot; talks about
brands; drinks; effects; flavor, etc
3. Alcoholics prefer the company
of drinking people. Usually bored
with non-drinkers.
4. Occasional drunks, especially
on week-ends.
5 Sneaking drinks. Drinking when
others do not know about it
6. Gulping drinks.
7. Blackouts. Loss of memory for
events taking place while drinking.
8 Morning hangover
9 Drinking at a regular time each
day, before dinner, bedtime, etc.
10. Great importance attached to
alcoholic beverages as an aid in en
tertaining, or at social events
11. Begins to avoid reference to
drinking.
If you have three or more of the
above symptoms you are an alco
holic in the early stages.
augmented by increased expendi
tures in specific categories to pro
vide a margin of safety In a recent
speech, I advocated more money
to be spent (1 )to keep the Strategic
Air ('ommand on an air alert to pre
vent our retaliatory striking force
from being destroyed on the ground;
(2) a speed-up in our second gen
oration missile program with par
ticular emphasis on the anti-missile
mis-silc; and (3) increased person
nel and modernization of weapons
and equipment for our ground
forces. 1 pointed out in my speech
that this margin of safety in our de
fense program could be provided
within the limitations of a balanced
budget by cutting or eliminating
certain non-defese programs.
