After examination and x-rays of the Royal Family of Morocco, the first chiropractic adjustment was delivered in that kingdom. Morocco, which is located on the northwestern border of North Africa (and was also the home of Casablanca) had formerly been void of the chiropractic profession. Sidi M. Lemnouni, B.S.; D.C., of Atlanta, Georgia, was called upon by the Royal Family to make the examination.
"It was a privilege to deliver this first chiropractic adjustment to the royal family. This is the first step to the opening of Morocco to chiropractic," said Dr. Lemnouni.
Dr. Lemnouni added that he hopes to seek audiences with the governor in order to create a mutual cooperation and understanding of the profession in that country. It is anticipated that neighboring kingdoms will follow Morocco's lead and invite more chiropractors to introduce their field to the people of North Africa.

So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?
