Quit fiddling around
Old heating system got you unstrung? You
tune up the thermostat: Put it on a high note;
put it on a low note. And still it's on a sour
note. Unless vou have electric heat.
With electric heat, the temperature is always
right on pitch. It never varies more than one
degree. And you set the thermostat just once.
Many electric systems have room-by-room
temperature control. All give you the same
flawless performance. The same clean, gentle,
comfortable warmth.
And electric heating is keved to the modest
budget. Call us or your nearest certified electric
heating dealer to get the score.
With electricity conducting, you'll never play
the thermostat again.

BY SHARON ABERCROMBIE
Christmas has gone by only just last Monday. We are
still looking back with a smile at the lovely happen
ings the Day brought. The family talking of other
Christmases, of the gifts this one brought, of how
young Billy had grown since last year, and Linda would
be in school before next Christmas. The love and peace
are still in our hearts. And now it’s time to look for
ward to a New Year, to make those “good resolutions”
—and without doubt break some of them. We do not
have to wait till another New Year to try again to
keep each one of those good resolves, All we need to
do is keep trying—earnestly, remembering always that
we can get all the help we need if we just “Take it
to The Lord in Prayer.”

Notes on -
Chiropractic -
By DR. HENRY L. FOLEY :
FAMOUS LAST WORDS |
“1 have never been sick a
- in my life.” .
Two days after he made |
that boast John Doe made °
the cbituary columns. :
People like
John, Doe are
often a great
er health risk
than the
sickly ones. A
person who
suffers a
physical de
ficiency and
learns to con
serve his
strength and
curtail his activities will
frequently outlive his con
temporaries who, on the sur
face at least, enjoy more ro
bust health.
The John Doe type, on
the other hand, may be in
clined to abuse his body.
Lulled into complacency by
his apparent good condition,
he works and plays as hard
“at 40 or 50 as he did at 20.
Then one day — Curtains!
Conservation of health
should be a permanent ob
jective of everyone with a
zest for life. However, lack
of symptoms should not be
accepted as proof that the
heart, lungs, liver and other
organs are just as sound and
strong as they ever were.
When good health is lost, it
may take long, tortuous
e, 3 to regain it. Or, it may
be wOO late.
You have never been sick
a day in your life? You're
very lucky. But take a les
son from the experience of
the late John Doe. Your
doctor of chiropractic sug
gests you not be complacent
about health — particularly
after 40.
