A. Schafer, Esq., Chairman Board Su- pervisors, Tehama County Red Bluff, Cal. Dear Sir: Your telegram to Mayer Blankenberg requesting the Liberty Bell stop in your City has been re- ferred to this Committee for reply, and it is with pleasure I inform you the Liberty Bell Special will arrive in Red Bluff about 9 a.m. Friday, July 16th, remaining for five min- utes. I inclose herewith Itin- erary and later will for- ward you a correct copy of same. Respectfully yours, Charles Seger, Chair- man The above communi- cation was received yes- terday by Andrew Scha- fer and confirms the press dispatch sent out a few days ago from Phil- adelphia to the same ef- fect. Accompanying the letter was an extract of the Itinerary of the Lib- erty Bell Special, show- ing that the train will ar- rive in Red Bluff about 9 a.m. and will remain here five minutes. It will arrive at Chico about 10:45 a.m. and remain there five minutes. Schager, as president of the Red Bluff Merchants Association, has offered the suggestion that all the stores in Red Bluff close from 8:45 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. in order to give the merchants and their employees a chance to see the bell. There is consid- erable discussion regard- ing the holding of another big celebration on that date. It is quite probable that Corning will send a special train to Red Bluff on that date and it has been suggested that a baseball game between Corning and Red Bluff business men would be a good feature for the day. — June 5, 1915 100YEARSAGO... LibertyBell will stop here Stores will close during its stay; may have celebration on that date Weight is a progressive disorder. By that I mean, if you are overweight and you're not doing something to lose weight, you're go- ing to gain it; there's no middle ground. Peo- ple who battle obesity con- sistently fool themselves into thinking they can "take a break" and "main- tain for awhile." They can't. After all, if they could, why would they not have "maintained" ten or twenty pounds lower? That's not meant to be snarky; it's just truth. Eventually the reality, "I've let it get out of con- trol" sets in, closely tailed by panic. When that occurs, logic beats a hasty exit and all sorts of strange get-thin- quick behaviors show up on the front porch. One of which is "The Cleanse." To lay all my cards on the table, I'm not a fan. One reason is that so many "cleanses" are bizarre at best, even downright un- healthy — not to mention unsustainable. To that point, I relay a recent conversation with a friend. "I'm on day four of a seven-day cleanse," he said. "I need advice. I'm starving. I can't think. I'm ready to bite some- one's head off and all I can think of is eating. What do I do?" Curious, I asked, "Why are you doing this? Why not a more balanced approach like cutting back a little here and there and add- ing in some exercise? That would work much better — without the side effects." "My girlfriend and I wanted to kick start the weight loss. We found this on line." "And nothing says 'safe, reliable, weight loss' like something on the Internet, right?" "Don't worry. We checked it out. Besides, everyone's doing it." "I'm not." "You know what I mean. We figured we'd knock off several pounds this week and then start eating sen- sibly. But, it's driving me crazy." Realizing his mind was locked; I sought additional info. "How does it work?" "For six days, we eat fruit for breakfast and nuts for lunch. At dinner, it's boiled chicken and a cup of rice. If we want, we can have more fruit for dessert." "That's pretty close to a starvation diet. A guy your size needs about 2000 cal- ories a day to sustain him- self. You're getting maybe half of that. No wonder you're going crazy. Can you have anything else?" "Yeah, as much water as we want." "Oh, my heart be still," I quipped sarcastically. "What happens on day seven?" "We have the same breakfast and lunch and then at 9:45 at night, we mix one cup of olive oil with cranberry and grape juice and chug it. Then, we lie on our left sides for 20 minutes, right sides for an- other 20, on our backs for a half hour and then go sleep. In the morning, we are cleansed." "Yick. I hope you have more than one bathroom in your house." "Yeah, we're a little ner- vous about that too. Any advice?" "Short of what I already told you, I think your only option is to tough it out. Good luck." Curious about the re- sults of their seven-day en- durance, on day eight I rang him up. "So, how'd everything turn out this morning?" "Great! We're done. We feel fantastic!" "I bet. Just thinking about drinking a cup of ol- ive oil is enough to make me sick. So, what's the plan for today?" "We went out for break- fast and lunch. Tonight, we're celebrating our suc- cess at our favorite restau- rant." "Uh, what about the diet?" "Oh yeah, we're going to maintain for a while. We'll start next month."
