The Union Recorder has continual ly urged our people to trade with their home merchants because the progress and advancement and the very life of our city demand it. Money taken out of circulation in Milledgeville, and spent in other cities or with mail order houses takes fro i the regular channel of trade th-.t which rightfully belongs here, j and its loss is felt not only by the merchants but by the clerks and laboring men and all classes of our people. The person who goes away from home to spend their money is! contributing to the death of his town,; because if their example was follow-! ed by all the people it can be readi-1 ly seen that business in this city would become of such a small value that -here would he no use for the existence of even one store.

Phone 302 SAM McCOMB Dr. Hilton Iru Jones in his lec- re, “Self Management” at the audi- rium March 13, tells some the sec ts which science hns found He id, “The most powerful drugs known to science are manufactured >y little glands within our own Iodic?. The actions and reactions •f our bodies arc controlled by these little glands.” He states further, "four years ago school of medicine in Michigan made the most wonderful discovery f the ages. “The actions of these litle glands were found to be under the direct control of the subjective mind resident in the base of the brain." Now this discus.- io n naturally rais es a question. If these powerful drugs are made in our own bodies use in our bodies, why is it ssary to swallow or squirt chemi cals from other animal bodies .made for their especial use into our bodies? —This violates the laws of nature and the results are the terrible after effects of Anti-toxins, serums, and vaccinations. Instead of this we prefer to have our spinal bones adjusted so as to remove the pressure from impinged nerves as they leave the spinal cord carrying messages from brain to or gans of the body. To Dr. Jones and his co-workers this discovery that the controlling power of the glands Is m the base of the brain, is new. But most of you who read this will recognize a baric principle of Chiropractic. Na ture manufactures all the chemicals needed by our bodies within our own bodies, so long as there is no inter ruption to natures processes. When there is pres«ure on these nerve trunks nature cannot direct organs of the body in their work. The re sult is disease. Dr. Jones and his- co-workers are to be congratulated for their advanc ed thinking. They will yet see the light—perhaps? Some day all peo ple will understand the group of na tural laws that operate thru the hu man body and known to the world as CHIROPRACTIC. In the mean time let us not condemn on the ad vice of (socalled) friends. But rather let us investigate in search for truth. H. E. STANFORD. D. C- Adv.
