Ashland Auto Parts 83 North Main St. OPENS MONDAY, JANUARY 7 with a full stock of STE V E : “ How was the hospital dinner, Judge? Sorry I couldn’t get there.” OLD JUDGE:"Nexy interesting, Steve. One of the doctors on the staff read a paper on the research work that is going on at one of the big universities where they are studying chronic alcoholism.” STEV E: " I ’d like to have heard tliat, Judge.” OLD JUD GE:" He pointed out that approx­ imately 95% of the people who drink do 10 sensibly. Only 5% abuse the privilege oc- casionally and included in that 5% is the very small number known as alcoholics. Then he quoted a doctor from a famous university who said ‘Alcoholics are sick per­ sons and, if treated as such, may be cured.’ Alcoholism, he said, is not caused by alcohol but by deep-rooted emotional derailments which can be prevented by education and often cured through modern psychology!" S T E V E :" That’s the most sensible approach to the problem I ’vs heard.” T hit adttrUttriunl rpm wrrZ » / ConjtrnKt »JA let M U I t t e r t p In iM r it! l i e Auto Parts and Accessories « Where Courtesy Exists”
