MESSAGES
of HOPE by
T. A. Williams
I
GIVE NATURE A CHANCE
There are only three different
kinds of health methods In the
woild. They are. first, the mental
methods; second, th. mechanical
methods, and third, the chemical methods.
Anything -^t runs whether It Is a human body or a
machine, depends or. these three things An automobile
for Instance, depends on (1i the driyer (mental); 12) the
motor (mechanicali and <31 oil and gas (chemical) to
keep it running
If your body has quit functioning with normal vigor, due
to a mechanical interference of spinal bones which press
upon spinal nerves, the obvious thing to do U to make
S mechanical (chiropractic i adjustment.
It the motor goes bad. you don’t feed It more oil and gas.
nor figure the driver needs more faith. The obvious
wnsible thing to do is to make the necessary, mechanical
adjustment
It someone steps on the hose arid the water suddenly
stops, you don’t turn more water into that hose, you
remove the kink./(mechanical obstruction!
When one of the segetnents of your'spine gets out of Its
correct mechanical alignment, it creates pressure on the
nerve lines and prevents,, the normal flow of nerve
energy, or the driving force of your body and the part
of the body served by those nerves will suffer disease.
Chiropractic Health Service Is designed to restore the
misaligned vertebrae to their correct position and allow
the life forces In your body to heal the diseased>t>arts
and make you well
3. Apprenticeship or other on-
the Job training, for which vet-
erans receive compensation for
productive labor.
4. Combination or cooperative
training In which students at-
tend school part time and are
employed part time, usually In
a relative field.
5 Internship and residency
training.
6 Oraduate training under a
fellowship requiring -a reduced
credit course-load because of
services rendered under pro-
visions of the fellowship. ,
Eligible veterans now In
schoool, who are entitled to 75
dollars or 105 dollars under the
new rates will not have to ap-
ply for the Increased allowances
Existing applications will sup-
ply all the information needed
to pay the new benefits. These
veterans, .therefore, need not
write VA at the present time
concerning their increases.
