LESSON V (Senior) ALCOHOL: WHAT T0 D0 ABOUT II‘

Are you ready to make a decis- ion? Make no mistake about it, al- cohol'is going to present problems to you. Beiorevery long you will be invited to drink. In a iew years you will have a. vote. The day will come when you will be entertaining in a home oi your own. Are you ready to make your choice to be a total abstalner and a worker ior a sober Canada? Are you ready to make that choice NOW?

In previous lessons we have dis-

Liie; Alcohol and the Public High- way; and Alcohol, The Great waster. In these lessons we have tried to explain the nature oi al- cohol. how it siiects the human body and the social eiiects oi its sale and consumption. We may summarize all that has been said about alcohol in one sentence: beverage alcohol might well be labelled, “Public Enemy Number One.". It is an enemy oi health. It degrades character, benumbs

and by removing inhibitions re- leases the baser instincts and de- sires. Alcohol is the destroyer oi homes. It robs the home oi neces- rities. causes dissentions, weakens morale. and causes divorce. Alcohol encourages and supports crimin- als. Drink is the enemy oi educat- ion. Dr. George Cutten. pre- sident oi Colgate University said (Sept. '39). "Everything I am try- l"! to build up as an education- lst, alcoholic drinking tends to tehr down." Alcohol causes iright- iul loss oi liie in automobile sc- cidents. 4d to 50% oi such deaths being due to drinking drivers. Ai- cohol is an enemy oi government breeding grait. corruption and disrespect ior law. Alcohol de- stroys youth's health, idealism and spirituality.

Why Do People Drink?

A group oi young people selected this as the most perplexing quest- ion that temperance education must answer. There are many reasons why people drink. Three oi the most important are:

l. Because it produces euphoria. —a medical term meaning a sense oi well-being. Alcohol is deceptive to a marked degree and because oi this ieeling oi release irom in- terlority complex and iroml worry, many drink alcohol. Alli sensible people know a,nd thel drinker knows, that alcohol doesl not solve human problems. it only. postpones solution. and may ev- entually become a more serious problem ltseli.

2. To be s. good fellow. some young people cannot stand to be- leit out. or to be singled out oi social groups. They would preier to do what they know to be wrong rather than lace issues! honestly. we should remind such persons that no ones admires an individual who lacks the power oi decision and these young peo- ple actually suiier loss oi respect from the very group they are try- lng to impress.

3. Lack oi isith. During the last thirty-live years our country _en- gaged in two serious wars and experienced a. terrible depression. which dealt s. ‘severe blow to our homes. These three IJEQQCIESI brought sorrow, striie and bitter-I ness into many hearts with the‘ result that many people lost iaith‘ in their iellow men and God._ Many oi these suiierers had had. little contact with the Christian Church and in the hour oi testing; iound liie empty. Many oi them turned to drink ior rellei. Ii these people are to be helped we must lead them to an abiding: ialth in God through Jesus Christ ‘

National Temperance p Study Course-ISM!’

‘soclated with the sale oi liquor .

This is e. real challenge to the Church oi our time. but s chal- lenge in which we dare not isll. I

What can l De l

Every young person. every parent. every teacher should make a study oi alcohol. Paul said. "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you tree." Ii the truth about beverage alcohol be- came general knowledge, most oi the liquor problems would be‘ solved. Arflniormed person is less apt to start drinking. and is less likely to become a hopeless wreck should he start. Armed with the iacts a parent oi teacher is eq- uipped to give sound advice and because oi his knowledge oi al- cohol will command a hearing. A‘ well iniormed youth can easily iu- iiuence others.

Every young person should look to the iuture and ask himseli the question. "How will alcohol in- ﬂuence my liie? Can I aiiord the risks involved in drinking?" Surely the sane person would reach only one conclusion. namely, "I can't aiiord to drink." Thlsshould lead to a deiinite promise to God, s. dedication oi one's talents to all that is tine arid good in liie. ‘Iihis decision will bring no regrets. What Can The Community Do?

l. Educate. There is a heavy responsibility upon each commun- ity to prepare the young ior adult liie. Education should go beyond the iacts learned in the average classroom. It should include a

"Dangerous!"

"Yes. He's lust like poison. Is said so himseli. Isn't it queer that people will take him — alcohol i mean—to drink when they'd never think o! drinking the kind oi poison that Daddy puts on the rose bushes when he sprays them. or the strange smelling poison Mother keeps in the blue bottle in the medicine cabinet."

“That's because they know they're poison." defended Jerry.

“They know alcohol is, too. At least we know, because Blr Al told us so himseli and was ashamed o! it."

"Well, we're not taking it. Even ii it doesn't really poison me I don't want my arms and legs to slog’ being elastic. the way you sa .'

"It isn't the arms and legs, it's muscles that make them move. and the muscles get, their orders to move irom the nerves that carry all sorts oi messages irom the brain. You remember Miss Wray explained all that to us in school. but Sir Alcohol seemed be make it plainer. And he was so sorry."

"I should think he- would be ashamed, whoever he is."

"You know who he is. Jerry Bur- ton. You sat here-no, not here, in the car. I mean-and talked to him ior ever so long." '

“But the car isn't here." declar-

ed Jerry. "It hasn't come yet. I've been watching." "Well, so — someone who

looked like a bottle and said his name was Sir Al-Sir Alcohol - told us ever so many things. He was very, very interesting, even ii he sometimes is such a bad friend to people. He honestly ‘doesn't want to get into anyone! Iblood and then into the brain so ;that it can't tell the hundreds oi ‘little nerves to tell the muscles jwhat to do.

2. Organize. Each community should organize and upport a var- iety oi activities in which liquor has no part. Communities. like individuals, develop habits and once drinking becomes an estab- lished habit it is a. diiilcult thing

"Jerry. Jerry. wake up!" She didn't whisper this time and when Jerry did not speak at, once she shook him. "Jerry." she called again, her voice trembling with iear, “wake up. Jerry. The car's gone and it's all dark."

"Gone! I didn't know it had come yet." Jerry rubbed his eyes and sat up. "You iell asleep aiter watching ior ever so short a time. but I've been waiting and watch- ing to see it dﬂve in."

Therefore it is oi supreme importance that we elect to eirice only those who are competent. trustworthy and oi sterling character. We should give our votes only to those who will sive us the kind oi government we desire. Alcohol has already gained s strong foothold 1n political liie, and it will require a strong Christian influence at the polls ii’ it is to be eliminated.

“Out oi what?" Jerry's tone was impatient. "We weren't going out We were just going to look out until

don't believe it's coming till morn- ing now. Let's hurry up to bed."

“But he may come back-Sir Alcohol, I mean to tell us more about-about athletes."

"What athletes?"

"You remember. Svil Apps—"

"The hockey player?” interrupted Jerry. "Oi course. I have his picture hanging in my room."

"I know. You said that beiore."

“I didn't We hadn't been talking about him beiore."

"You couldn't have been listen- Ing when sir Alcohol—"

"Sir who?"

Then because in some way she could not understand Jerry did not seem to remember any oi the things Sir Alcohol had been tell- ing them Joyce told him all over again.

"I'm rather sorry now that I said he looked like a bottle when his hat was straight. He'd so much rather be in a clr radiator or locked up in a thermometer bulb than poured out oi a bottle ior someone to drink. He doesn't want to get inside people at all. He's much too dangerous."

| "Would it be all right to ask God right now to make us strong and swiit?" asked Jerry. "Then we can hurry back to bed. ior it's cold to sit here and the car may not, come till morning."

Joyce decided not to mention the car and the moonbeam and the strange little visitor again. Jerry hadn't seemed to undeutand. though he had been there all the time. But ii there hadn't been a little man who looked exactly like a bottle, how could he have told her the very things Miss Wray had told at school? How could-

But Jerry was already kneeling by the window seat. so quietly Joyce slipped down beside him, and the moon, that still shone in. must have been glad to know that at least two little people hsd discov- ered a means oi keeplnﬂ "m9"- tlon sway, so that their mind! ‘and their bodies might be kept strong and clean and clear as God. who made them, meant that they should be kept.
