By Lawrence Lamb, IW.D.
Dear Dr. Lamb— l am 71
years old and taken for 50.
My hair is not gray and
there is plenty of it. I don’t
go to the doctor for a medi
cal checkup or take any
pills, but live the simple life.
My 88-year-old father-in-law
has been with us for several
months. He had a hard life
and he and his wife fought
like two tom cats with their
tails tied together and
throwed across a wash line.
When he came he had so
much medicine that his
dresser looked like a drug-

Throw All Those Pills Away
store. The first thing I told
him was to throw all those
pills away.
I have never seen a man
eat like this one. He amazes
me. He eats twice as much
as I do. He sits out in the sun
every day and you should
see his tan. I told him to
start walking around for
exercise. He went right
from HELL to HEAVEN
and no one knows it
better than he. Before he
came if he got a bath once
a year he was lucky, scared
to get into the tub. He loves
the shower. The pants he had
on would have stood up by
themselves. He is a differ-
Ellis attends
Athens workshop
Patrolman William O. Ellis of
the Griffin Police Department
was a participant in the fifth
annual Police Juvenile Officers
Workshop held at the Georgia
Center for Continuing
Education in Athens.
“Participants had an op
portunity to combine academic
theories with practical ex
perience,” said Richard J.
Korstad, coordinator of the
conference and head of the
Police Science Division’s Law
Enforcement Section. “In
addition," said Korstad, “those
attending were exposed to as
many situations as possible in
order to help them deal more
effectively with the juvenile
offender.”

ent man. Frankly he will
probably outlive me. I am
under the tension of having
him under my feet 24 hours
a day.
On the way down to Flor
ida I stopped at two nursing
homes and saw some rela
tives and friends. How pa
thetic. Sitting and waiting
and paying SIOO a week
What’s the answer?
Now this is for your own
information. I sure as hell
am not looking for anything
including a doctor. If I go,
there won t be much gone. I
have no illusions about this
hereafter junk. I will be just
like the mules I used to drag
out in the fields. I will be put
under and nine chances out
of 10 go back to the earth
period.
Dear Reader—Thank you
for a refreshing letter. With
your sense of humor you
should live a long time, and
help others do the same.

in Ist class
Dr. George L. Simpson, Jr.,
chancellor of the University
System of Georgia will be the
keynote speaker at the first
graduation exercises of Clayton

Graduating in the first class

common sense in it. Good
living patterns are better
than a box full of medicine.
The right diet, proper ex
ercise, avoiding bad habits
like tobacco, coffee, colas
and alcohol would go a long
way toward decreasing the
need for medical attention
for young and old alike. The
cost of health care could be
greatly reduced if people
lived right. Os course, medi
cine can be life saving. Digi
talis for heart failure is a
good example, or insulin for
diabetes. But a vast array
of medicines is given to
people who could improve
their own lot by improved
living. High blood pressure
medicine is given to people
who need to get rid of fat.
Tranquilizers are taken by
people who should stop
drinking from four to 20 cups
of coffee a day, and so on.
Our "old folks homes,”
are often halfway houses—
halfway between life and
death They are poor substi
tutes for the emotional sup
port of loved ones in a home
atmosphere. Everyone
should be so lucky as your
father-in-law. In caring for
someone else it is more dif
ficult to get old yourself. It
all sounds to me like you al
ready have a pretty good
doctor for yourself.
