Even little shavers
get a big deal.
To little brother, years before his first razor, big
brother shaves with amazing skill. And at an amaz
ingly low price. Just two cents’ worth of electricity
will smooth a face every day for a couple of years.
For two cents, at our average residential price
per kilowatt-hour, you can churn 15 gallons of choc
olate ice cream. Or bake 14 waffles to a crispy,
golden brown. Or wash eight loads of dirty jeans. Or
keep the Saturday morning bunch happy with almost
five hours of colorful TV cartoons.
That’s getting your two cents’ worth. And that’s
especially important if you have little shavers in
the house.

TOMLINSON
Remember, a drug is any substance which
has an effect upon body or mind. Now, if
a drug that has an effect only upon the body
is abused or misused as a general rule only
the person involved is injured by abusing
the drug. Such is not true for a drug that
has an effect upon the mind. Many times
a person will abuse a mind altering drug
and by their actions harm another person.
The damage may or may not be intentional.
Why would a person want to take a mind
altering drug? The effect of the drug is an
escape mechanism and relieves the desire
for pleasure.
At birth, the psychic is composed of two
parts, the Id and the Super-Ego. Now,
these parts can not be touched or pointed
to as an arm or leg. They exist only in the
mind and serve only to explain mental
phenomena.
The Id is the psychic location of the libido,
or pleasure principle, or instinctive sexual
urge. The Super-Ego is the goody-good
part of the mind and serves as an internal
sensor or the Id. The Id is alvzays trying
to control the actions of the individual and
the Super-Ego is always attempting to hold
the Id in check. This battle begins at birth
and continues until death. Both forces are
in the sub-conscious and exist whether we
want them to or not. Another force starts
developing soon after birth and is the result
of conscious developement or awarness and
is called the ego or "self". . The tendences
we are born with are the things of Nature
and the tendences we aquire as a result of
awareness are the things of Nurture. The
per sonality is a result of the forces of Nat
ure and Nurture and is peculiar to the in
dividual. In other words, no two person -
altities are exactly alike. What does all
this mean? Itmeans that every person has
a personality which is his and no one else
has one like it. A neurosis is a partially
disorganized personality and a psychosis
is a completely disorganized personality.
Many drugs have the ability to alter or
change the personality. These are the
drug s taken by a person when they are dis
satisfied with their surroundings and want
to 'escape" thereby satisfying their pl
easure desire.

glances were cast as the bride entered the sancturary, wearing
an elegant gown of white silk peau de soie.
