IN MEMORIAM
In memory of my mother
who passed away the 25th
day of December, 1964, Alice
Ragland Reynolds.
Memories are something
that no one can steal.
Death is a heartache
nothing can heal.
Some may forget you now
that you’re gone.
But I’ll always remember
no matter how long.
Daughter, Maxine
Reynolds Lee

HOW TO KNOW ffi
A MEDICAL QUACK M
Quacks not only take your money, but also
IW steal some of the precious time when early Ml
diagnosis and treatment of a disease can pre
vent much later danger. BM
IBS Any person who guarantees a quick cure, l|i
uses a secret machine or formula, advertises KL
■ testimonials of his cures, tells you surgery or
x-rays do more harm than good, or claims the
medical profession is persecuting him is a BS
quack. The more he tells you that the physi
cians are afraid of his competition, the more
certain you can be of his quackery. Beware
|bm of such fakers. Voltaire said, “The quack was
■a born when the first knave met the first fool.’’

Montgomery
Marine Pvt. Daniel Mont
gomery, Jr., son of Mr. and
Mrs. Daniel Montgomery, E.
Sixth St., is going through
recruit training at the Ma
rine Corps Recruit Depot.
Parris Island, S. C.
His first stop when he ar
rived here was the depot’s
receiving barracks where all
new recruits are processed.
Here he received his first is
sue of Marine uniforms, the
equipment he will use in
training, and his first mili
tary haircut.
After being placed in a
training platoon with other
new recruits, he left the re
ceiving barracks and began
his formal Marine training
under the close guidance of
his drill instructors. Until he
graduates, eight weeks after
he entered "boot camp”,
these seasoned non-commis
sioned Marines will guide
and supervise his progress in
physical conditioning and
development, rifle marks
manship, and other skills
which he must master to be
a Marine.
Everybody can talk, but
few can talk to the point.
