Answer — A physician specializing in the
diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting
the inside of the body. Sometimes the symptoms
of an illness can be almost the same for differ-
ent diseases. Then your family Doctor may wish
the opinion of an Internist to confirm or help
him make the proper diagnosis.
This help often saves much . sickness-time..
It illustrates why it is seldom wise for people
to attempt to diagnose or treat themselves. You
are safer when you consult your physician.
YOUR DOCTOR CAN PHONE US when
you need a medicine. Pick up yxiur prescription
if shopping nearby, or we will deliver promptly
without extra charge. A great many people en-
trust us with their prescriptions. May we com-
pound yours?

that during 1961, Kirby Lumber Corporation paid ad valorem
taxes to East Texas Counties, school districts, etc., in a total
amount equal to nearly $450.00 for each and every one of its employees
. . . and, that these same ad valorem tax payments represented
approximately $5.75 lor each and every thousand feet of lumber
manufactured in its Silsbee plant? This is only one of the many ways
in which Kirby Lumber Corporation contributes to the economic
growth and well-being of the areas in which they operate.
