Show OREM-GENEVA TIMES Thursday, November 13, 1S47 THIS 'II THAT " By Ethyl N. Hair A REQUEST WHY BE AN ALCOHOLIC? Hi Folks: A reader wants to know hy some drinkers are alcoholics and others are not. It's rather hard to explain in a way some people can understand. It is not the alcohol al-cohol tha; makes for an alcohol-ic-but warped personality traits. The test: can you take a drink or two and go about your duty and forget about it or does it torture you 'till yoi take another drink, and another, and others, I have never known an alcoholic alco-holic who had to have his arm twisted to get him to take the first drink and the ones following. follow-ing. He just naturally seeks alchohol any time, any place, as a means of ESCAPISM. He's an inferior personality who can't take it on the CHIN. Who can't face FACTS, and life without flinching. He's a mental pantywaist. A Boob. Then why are some drinkers alcoholics and others NOT? It dates back to the home environment, the cradle and preschool years of a person's life. Alcoholics are spoiled brats, from the cradle to the grave- Some possess great charm, even good looks, and these two characters are sure to play into the parents' hands doubly in creating an ALCOHOLIC. ALCO-HOLIC. It's a matter of developing devel-oping abnormal personality traits in childhood. Psychiatry so far has done very little for this shocking condition, except to lay a finger on the personality traits that make for an alcoholic. AMONG PERSONALITY MO-TrVATIONS MO-TrVATIONS AS SUCH, OFTEN FOUND IN ALCOHOLICS, THE FOLLOWING APPEAR TO BE SIGNIFICANT: A self-pampering tendency, which repeals itself in a refusal to tolerate even briefly, any unpleasant state of mind (WHICH MAKES ALCO-HOLICS ALCO-HOLICS GOOD-TIME-CHARLIES) boredom, disappointment, worry, depression, dissatisfaction, dissatisfac-tion, and feelings of inferiority or INADEQUACY. A childish demand de-mand for "I WANT, WHAT I WANT, WHEN I WANT IT, BECAUSE BE-CAUSE I WANT IT", perhaps expresses the attitude of most alcoholics toward life. Alcoholics Alco-holics have more than unusual craving for emotional expression, expres-sion, but they lack incentive to create, or organize their talents. .lore than The SamSOH ALL-PURPOSE c In such people, they argue equal rights but never, never assume EQUAL RESPONSIBILITIES. An alcohoic has the tendency to escape from all responsibilities, responsibili-ties, or worrys. And to seek escape es-cape from REALITY by the easiest means available. There are people who drink socially keep liquor in their homes at all times yet are not drunks (ALCOHOLICS) (AL-COHOLICS) can, and do assume as-sume the responsibilities of adulthood whose attitudes are wholesome they are rarely ever seen under the influence of liquor, they are wholesome citizens citi-zens - not because of the alcohol alco-hol thoy drink, but because ihey possess wholesome personality traits. There are many neurotic, psychopathies who never touch alcohol. But they are not mentally men-tally healthy individuals they are sick personalities, and easily succumb to alchohol if given encouragement. en-couragement. And that is the tTgument against keeping alon-hol alon-hol in the "HOME", or encouraging encourag-ing some person to take the first drink; they may possess hidden neurotic traits, and surely before God you would be held responsible respon-sible for such a downfall of a fellow man- A weaker brother. It's up to the parents (THE HOME to weed out alcoholism. Teach your child to "take It", without flinchihg; life is no bed of roses, but full of hard knocks. IF HE LEARNS TO TAKE IT ON THE CHIN HE WON'T BECOME BE-COME AN ALCOHOLIC.

This room has been made to look larger by using a minimum of frills but a maximum max-imum of good taste. The one chair in the room has been selected because be-cause it provides comfort and was proportioned to the size of the room. Because an end-table would take up too much spare, glass shelves have been used as a corner knick-knack. For the final touch of spaciousness the valance has a matching border at bottom of the window and the window shade matches the color of the draperies. The trick of matching match-ing the color of shades to drapenei or the wall car make an) room look much larger.

LOUIS, MO.-Deta!ls of two secret cancer operations performed on Pres. Grover Cleveland at a time when the nation confronted a grave economic crisis were disclosed here by Dr. M. C. Seelig. Dr. Seelig was cne of six surgeons who boarded the yacht of a friend of the President's Presi-dent's to perform the operations. Writing in the medical journal, Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Gynecol-ogy, he tells how the operations were performed. In June, 1893, the country was In financial near-panic and a special session of congress was set for little more than a month away. Made Hospital Ship. The economic and political consequences conse-quences of a disclosure that the chief executive had cancer of the mouth was Impossible to predict. So, late on the night of June 30, the six doctors, the President and his secretary of war, Daniel La-mont, La-mont, came aboard the yacht The craft had been converted into a hospital hos-pital ship. The next morning the President's entire upper left Jaw and a portion of his palate were removed In an hour-long operation as tha yacht cruised lazily In Long Island sound. Dr. Seelig writes that, although President Cleveland was "a poor surgical risk," everything went well. Two days after the operation, he went home. The physicians deemed a second operation necessary, however, and it took place two weeks later under similar circumstances. Dentist Helps Out. Three days before the special con-eressional con-eressional session began, the Presi dent returned to Washington, A dentist den-tist had fitted a specially-construct ed vulcanized rubber jaw In place. As he opened the special session, his voice was firm and strong. Since the operation was entirely inside the mouth, there were no scars to roar his appearance and give away his secret. Cleveland lived for 15 more years and his death certificate recorded that he died of "heart failure com' plicated with pulmonary throm bosis." A short time after the operations the Philadelphia Press printed a story which, according to Dr. Seelig was "uncannily accurate In many respects." The Press report was angrily denied de-nied by L. Clarke Davis, editor of the Philadelphia Public Ledger and a close personal friend of the President, Presi-dent, and was generally disbelieved at the time.
