Rural Reflections: Much has been writeen about the absence of the old-fashioned Thanksgiving, but as yet the flavor of the turkey and pumpkin pie from the super market is just as pungent as Non-Surgical Method Cures Hemorrhoids Painlessly A relatively painless, non-1 Iration or confinement. Pa- surgical method of treating hemorrhoids (piles) is work ing therapeutic miracles for thousands who suffer from rectal and colon disorders. A recently developed elec tronic treatment is proving more effective than surgery, with none of the after effects of surgery.

Alafeen Helps Teen-Agers To Live With Alcoholic Parents By LOUIS CASSELS UPI Correspondent Washington -(UPD-. The girl was 17, blonde .and pretty. She walked to tfie speaker's rostrum with as much poise and dignity as if she were to deliver the valedictory at a high school commencement. "My name is Sue J ," she began. "My father is an alcoholic." The two dozen boys and girls in the audience didn't bat an eye. Any one of them could have begun a speech the same way. This was an "Alateen" erouD. holding its weekly meeting. Principles of AA Alateen is a young people's fellowship based on the prin ciples of Alcoholics Anony mous. It tries to help boys and eirls whose lives have been messed up by the uncontrolla ble drinking of one or both of their parents. The first Alateen group was organized in Pasadena, Calif. in 1956. Without benefit of much promotion or publicity, the idea has spread rapidly during the past two years. To day there are 29 groups in operation and 32 more being organized. They are scattered all over the map from New York to New Mexico, and from Toronto to Texas. Even with this mushroom growth, Alateen has barely scratched the surface of the problem it is trying to allevi ate. At a conservative esti mate, there are upwards of 3,000,000 teen-agers in Ameri ca who are the indirect vic tims of the illness which now ranks as the nation's No. health problem. Alateen cannot give these young people sober parents and a normal home life. But it does help them to live with their problem, and to over come the deep sense of shame, insecurity and resentment that haunts the children of alcoholics. Can Afflict Anyone The first lesson brought home to a youth who attends an Alateen meeting is that alcoholism is an illness that can afflict anyone, even "nice" people. "You-are not alone in facing the problems alcoholism brings," says the little green pamphlet present ed to each new member. "So don't waste time feeling ashamed." The question that every new member asks is "how can I get my father (or my moth er) to stop drinking?" Alateen's answer is simple and realistic: "Perhaps you cannot alone But you can help immeasur ably by understanding the problem of alcoholism; by treating your parent as a sick MEDFORD MOTORISTS!

Home Office: SKoKle, Illinois person; and by adopting a tolerant attitude. You cannot scold, plead, reason or threat en anyone into sobriety. Hiese tactics only make matters worse." Alateen draws heavily on AA's experience (an AA mem ber is usually present at each Alateen meeting as an adult adviser). And it has found that many of the basic principles which have proved so effec tive in helping alcoholics cope with their illness can also be applied to helping their families bear their peculiarly heavy cross. For example, Alateen mem bers find a special meaning in AA's "serenity prayer": "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference." On Day At A Tim As AA members are taught to concentrate on remaining sober for the next 24 hours, so Alateens are urged to "live one day at a time." "You can endure something for 12 hours that would ap pall you if you had to keep it up for a lifetime," says the little green pamphlet. "Re member, there is always hope for the alcoholic." Like AA, Alateen builds its therapy around a simple but profound faith in God's abili ty to solve any problem and transform any life that is committed wholly and trust ingly to His care. This faith is the heart of AA's famous "12 step" philosophy, which has been adapted with few modi fications by Alateen. Finally, .Alateen emulates AA's heavy emphasis on serv ice - the so-called "12th step work" in which those who have solved their own prob lems turn their energy to helping others who are suffer ing from the same kind of troubles. ' Alateen is the second non- MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or., Wednesday, December 3, 1938 3 A alcoholic fellowship to grow up around AA. The first was the "AlAnon Family Group" movement, organized several years ago to provide counsel and mutual support for the husbands and wives of alco holics. Although each Alateen group is self-supporting and self-governing, with the teen agers themselves in full charge of all activities, the movement is under the gen eral sponsorship of Al-Anon.
