concerned adult,”’ said Annetta.
“There has been the ‘“Me” genera-

Don’t Care” generation. A new gen-

apathy. It was the late James
Nicholas, who got me involved,”

Dad
HARRY SWEPPENHEISER,
Echo Valley Trailor Court, who is
14, says his Dad is very special to
him. ‘“He’s ‘always there for me
when I need his help with anything
at all, or when I just want to talk.”
While each of these kids
expressed their thoughts a little
differently, what they had to say
sums up pretty much the way most
of us feel.
Dads are very special people,
indeed, and we wish all Dads every-
where “Happy Father’s Day.”
TOM LADAMUS, of Park Street,
Dallas, whose Dad’s name is
George, thinks his Dad is pretty
special because ‘“He’s the nicest
Dad there is, and he’s special cause
he’s my Dad.”
KRISTEN HARDISKY, of RD3
allas, «who just had two teeth
pulled right before this picture was
taken, smiled nevertheless, and
said, “My Dad is special because he
helps other people when they are in
need, and he practices baseball with
me.” Kristen is 12. HARRY SWEPPENHEISER
SIGNS
AND
SYMPTOMS
It's true that certain symptoms,
such as headaches, neck pain,
and numbness or tingling in
the arms and legs can be a
definite sign of nerve pressure.
However, pain is very often
DR. JOHN WANYO the last sign to appear when
a problem is present and the first sign to disappear
when the problem is corrected by your chiropractor.
Unfortunately we do not have a red light that goes
off every time we have a bone out of proper allign-
ment irritating a spine nerve, Often, by the time we
notice pain, numbness, swelling or disease. in our
body, the spinal problem has already been inhibiting
communication between the brain and body parts
with resultant reduction of proper function.
