Editor’s notes
BOY, DID I GOOF!
For those of you who read last
week’s column and are still
trying to figure out just what Dotty
the heck Therapy Drugs Inter- h
national are, let me explain. Martin
There is no such thing as Ther-
apy Drugs International - at
least not that I’m aware of. The
correct name of the group of
which “Joy’’ is a member is
we did have room for it, it was
necessary for us to eliminate
several names of people who
had attended the reunion but
who do not live in the Back
Mountain.
Because the names of her
family members from out of
town were not mentioned, this
woman became rather insulted,
immediate family, all of whom
live in the Back Mountain,
attended this reunion was
important enough for us to
include in our newspaper. How-
ever, if we were going to men-
tion all the names of other
family members who do not live
in the area which we cover, we
would be left with very little
ment at Aetna Life & Casualty,
my father is taking what is long
overdue - a well-deserved retire-
ment.
Lots of traveling in his new
custom van and getting in my
stepmother’s hair are priorities
on his list of things to do, but I
have a feeling retirement is
going to agree with him.
Good luck, Dad - the dear
Lord sure knows you’ve worked
hard enough for this. -

tive Editor of The Dallas Post.
Her column appears regularly.)
Therapy Dogs International.
Not only did I get that wrong
in last week’s column but I
made a double mistake by call-
ing the group Therapy Drugs
International twice.
“Joy,” who belongs to Janice
Blight and who visited us at our
office one day last week, is a
Therapy Dog and belongs to
Therapy Dogs International, a
group of dogs and their owners
who visit nursing homes and
elderly people in an attempt to
get the senior citizens to relate
to the dogs.
There is no such thing as
Therapy Drugs International
and I owe not only Joy and
Janice but all my readers a
very sincere apology. The mis-
take was an honest one and
made only because my fingers
hit the wrong keys on the com-
puter and my eyes did not catch
the mistake after it was made.
I hope Joy, Janice and every-
one else you will forgive me on
this one - it sure was a bigee!
SPEAKING OF MISTAKES,
incorrect credit was given on a
color photograph in last week’s
paper.
The photograph depicting the
colorful leaves that appeared on
page nine of last week’s paper
was taken by Dallas Post staff
correspondent Charlot M.
Denmon during a ride through
the Back Mountain one day.
The photo certainly depicts
Mother Nature at her best
during this fall season.

MUCH THANKS to everyone
who has asked how my foot is
coming along. You’ll remember
a few weeks ago I mentioned I
had foot surgery and was hob-
bling around wearing a surgical
shoe.
Well, the stitches are out now
and the foot is on the road to
recovery. I’ve been told by my
ever-confident doctor that this
foot is healing much better and
much quicker that the last one
did, however, since I’m having
some trouble wearing real
shoes, I’m having a difficult
time believing that.
But, anyway, thanks to all of
you who have been so kind as to
inquire about my progress. I'm
sure it will be a thing of the past
before too long.

I HAVE A MESSAGE for a
woman who seems to be rather
upset about the way we handled
a news item she brought in to us
a few weeks ago. Normally, I
would respond in the form of a
letter, however, this woman did
not leave her address with me
and I have been unable to locate
her any other way.
So, I offer the following expla-
nation for two reasons — hoping
to ease her mind a little and, at
the same time, offering our
policy to the rest of our readers
so that they can avoid an ugly
situation in the future.
This woman dropped off a
news item about a reunion her
family held. The reunion was
held out of town and, because of
space reasons, we did not get it
in the paper the same week she
brought it to our office. When

THE SPINE AND
NERVE SYSTEM
The malfunction of one organ can affect another
and sometimes several. Nerves not only control every
organ and function but inter-communicate and con-
nect each part of the body to every other part.
Whether next to the skin, close to the bone, or passing
through tissue and muscle, whatever their function or
| wherever they go, all nerves connect with the spinal
column and the brain.
The Ochreiter Croup is pleased to announce the re-
opening of its Dallas Office. The construction is
completed and we are now better able to serve the

the trouble must be found and corrected in order that health may be restored.
