But maybe you’ve wondered why we’re so fussy about other things . . . like penicillin, sleeping pills, the new tranquilizers. These potent medi cations are called “legend drugs” and you have to have a prescription to get them. Reason; Un controlled use may do more harm than good. Only your physician knows whether you should use them or not—and, if so, just how much. So we require a prescription. It’s a matter of profes sional ethics and the Uw. Always it’s common sense.

DEDICATED TO REV. AND MRS. DAVID L. HARRIS Thank God ’twas His will that sent you our way. Four years ago, but it seems just like yesterday. He sent you to us when we needed you most, But now you must go to serve on the coast. You’ve been a wonderful pastor, counselor and friend But all good things must come to an end— You taught us so much these few short years, It was not always easy to hold back the tears. It’s not possible to measure in numbers or per cent What has been accomplished here, in the years you’ve spent. We must say we were sad when you resigned that day. But we cannot be selfish as God calls you His way. It’s hard to put in words just what we want to say. But we pray that God will bless you as you serve His way. I’d like to ask a favor, if we should cross your mind. Just say a little prayer for us you’ve left so far behind. For we may never meet again until the day we die, But I hope we’ll meet in Heaven where we won’t have to say Goodble. Goodbye and may God bless you both. MR. AND MRS. J. A. BYRUM.
