• She also urges
participants to alter their
environment or image in
order to lessen the cues for
smoking. “Rearrange the
furniture, dress differently,
work in a different
location.’’
Flaxman, who has had
about 50 per cent sucess
with other subjects, believes
that breaking the habit is a
feat. She urges talking about
it to other persons:
“Don’t be modest
about it.”
Tests given to
participants in the program
determine why they smoke
and what kind of techniques

Why Chickens?
Reynold White's reply was “In December of *74 I had a heart attack.
The doctor told me no more hard work. I was in the logging and
sawmill business...and that’s hard work. I sold my business. For
about a year I didn’t really do anything. I needed something to oc
cupy my time; and earn money too. All along, I had been hearing
about Perdue. By this time, they had made a lot of investments in
the area. I decided they were gonna stick. I talked to my doctor. He
gave me the go ahead so I built my first Perdue chicken house. Now
I have two.”
Think about it!
Here’s how the responsibilities are broken down:
