vehicles, and the constantly
growing system of freeways throughout the country,
continually expand the opportunity for the type of
accident which can result in "whiplash” injures
and agonizing pain. '
While such injuries remain little-understood in
many branches of the healing arts, the chiropractor,
because of his constant training and study of spine
and its alignment, is well aware of the significance
of even minute changes in the alignment. He
realizes that "whiplash” victims really are in need
of help.
The chiropractor, through scientific examination,
can locate tiny spinal displacements which may
result from "whiplash-type” accidents. With com
petent, gentle adjustments he restores proper align
ment to release dangerous nerve pressure and allow
nature to restore the body to its normal, healthy,
condition. Another Health and Life Article from

Schools Make the Grade
Our schools use hundreds of things that are made from oil: desk tops
and fiberglass seats, educational films, tapes and records, paint, ink ~.
even the erasers on pencils.
But most of all, schools use energy. For heat, light and transportation.
75% of all our energy comes from oil and natural gas (including 40%
of our electricity).
But today, we’re using these petroleum fuels faster than we are
finding them. That’s why America faces an Energy Gap.
We're your local oil companies. Working to bridge the growing Energy
Gap. Because it's as simple as A-B-C ... a country that runs on oil can't

Fall Vegetable Production
Vegetable producers growing
vegetables for the fresh mar

Weeds must be controlled

SWEATERS
Sweaters are going to be
big news again this year. The
from the long cardigan rib
knits to the short, snug in the
waist style. Also good will
be the sweater sets or match
ing sweaters.
When you go shopping for a
sweater, remember that sweat
er sizes are not standardized.
This bit of information may
not come as a surprise if you
have had difficulty in getting
the correct fitting sweater.
So, the Extension Service
Hom Economist recomm end be
fore making the final decision
on those fall and winter swea
ters, you better make sure
they fit. You may find two sw
eaters marked the same size,
yet differ as much as two
inches.
The secret is to try before
you buy any sweater. Try
it on over the kind of cloth
ing you plan to wear under
neath the sweater, too.
Read the care instructions
carefully, too. The fiber con
tent or material that the swea
ter is made will determine how
to care for it. Some of the
manmade fibers should only be
washed by hand or machine,
however, most wool and cash
mere sweaters need to be dry
cleaned.
Remember, try the sweater
on and carefully read the la.

PEANUT BUTTER
Peanut Butter for distri
bution to needy families has
been bought by the U. S.
Department of Agriculture. A
Georgia firm will supply about
55 percent of the peanut
butter purchased. A total of
90,210 cases of peanut butter
containing approximately four
and one-third million pounds
was purchased by USDA at a
cost of about one and one
third million dollars.
Again Georgia farmers have
been warned by the U. S.
Department of Agriculture to
be on the look-out for screw
worm infestations. USDA
announced that Southwestern
ranchers now have 72 hours
instead of the previous 24
hours to have livestock
inspected by a veterinarian and
certified free of the parasites
before shipping animals inter

HELPFUL ADVICE FOR
THE WOMAN DRIVER
by Kay Nicolette
Women's Service Director
Gulf Oil Corporation
Considering your long
range interests, understanding
the make-up of your car is
more important to you than
the make-up on your face.
Your car is made up of cer
tain basic units — frame,
body, engine, transmission
and wheels. The frame (or
chassis) is the rectangular unit
around and upon which the
car is built; it supports every
thing else.
The body is your car’s
“shelter”; it provides protec
tion, comfort, appearance.
The engine, coupled to the
transmission, coupled to the
drive shaft, coupled to the
axle and the rear wheels are
what gives your car its
forward and reverse thrust.
