THE HOUSE THAT GEOFF BUILT

To anyone passing the square white house on Gray Street, the eight of four instead of five littlc figures on the side lawn would have been strange. To see all four watch- ‘ ing the road, no one saying o word. ‘was stranger still.

' “Here he comes now," shouted Phil May at. last, "and your mother Ls with him. Joan."

"And Geoff?" Joan jumped up and down in her excitement. "Is Geoff there?"

"l can't see."

"1 can see s hand waving.” ex- clnmed Bill May. the other English "war guest" who was staying with grandparents in the apartment house at the corner. "It must. be Geoff, or the doctor and your mother wouldn't be in the unbu- lance. They'd be in Dr. Black's oer."

Then the ambulance turned in at the driveway and all four clustered round as the doctor and the ambul- ance driver brought out the stret- cher and they could see the pale lace of the boy who lay on it.

"I sure will be." said Geoff, “but it's sort of a cracked foundation now."

"Broken bones will heal. i! they are given a chance, Geoff. but there are worse things than that."

"What, Doctor?” asked Bill. "A leg, like a foundation, is something you have to stand on, and if it is cracked it might mend agan, but itwouldbeleesueeaeepeprop.”

Dr. Black laughed. "Quite m argument, Bill, but I think Geoff's legs will be strong enough still to hold up his ‘house.’ His special job will be to see that the right things go into the-what shall we eey—"

"Wait. until we get him stowed away in bed then you can all come

So it was almost half an hour later when the four tip-teed up- stairs and stood around the rented hospital bed where Geoff, with a weight to his right leg, lay smiling up at them.

“Don't look so scared, Alice Anne. It's just my leg that's broken."

"But. it might have been all of you, Geoff. You mighm‘t have been hereaf all. What will they do to that old truck driver?"

“He's not old, and he's hurt much Worse than I am," was the answer. "Maybe he won’; ever be better."

"Joan!"

"I mean he should have been more careful, Geoff."

“A chap like that isn't fit to drive u truck or anjulfng," added Bill.

"Well whatever they are, they make the guests all so jolly. One guest. fell and broke his collarbone he was so-so jolly." she ended.

"Might be made of several things," said Dr. Black kcriously, “but alcohol. or something contain- ing alcohol. would be the founda- tion of it."

ALCOHOL AND THE BRAIN B! RICHARD H. UHAIVIPION

community by wires over which messages are sent and received, ec the brain connects all the various psrtrof thebody hymen-us of little nerve channels.

Certain centres of the brain take up definite tasks, though they are not entirely separate. If one part. of the brain is harmed. sometimes another pert ls able to tube on its work. We shell consider the de- velopment of the brain in five stages.

l. The centres which control the beating of the heart. Without this control from the brain the been would not beat.

2. The centres which control the breathing of the lungs. Without those centres the lungs would not expand end contract.

are accidentally or wilfully damag- ed, the ability to reason may be lost; Where men have complete? lost the’r memory, this has oﬂei been the case. . 5. Another higher stage of de- velopment ls found in the inhibi- tory centres. To inhibit means to restrain or prevent. These centres give us a sense of values, Judgment, self- criticism, self-control, a con- science, the ability to distinguish between right and wrong You have this power and you take it for granted. You realize that a. certain thing is right and that something else is wrong. You knoy thatlto take something that is no: yours is wrong and it. is so obvhus to you that you think that everyone else is Just as able to see it. in that light. This is not the msc, however. If you did not have those inhibi- tory centres in your brain you would not. realize that it ls wrung to take someone else‘s property There are some people who are like this. They are classed as crimuala and they usually are sent to 1min. They are punished for their act-ions. Ii: isdrequently the case, however, that these" people should 0e pltied and helped rather than despised and punished.

These inhib tory centres or the brain are not definitely separated from one another but are inter- dependent. and one part. may as- sist in the task of another.

Alcohol a Narcotic

Alcohol is cuisscd as a narcotic. A narcotic is n drug that numhs or stupefies. Other narcotics are heroin, opium, cocaine. In quantity these narcotics are pdsons. Several drugs have an affinity for some particular par: of the body, that is. thev concentrate their poisonous effects at that place Strychrine has an affinity for the heart. Pepsn has an affinity for the stomach. Lead has an affi-iltv for the wrists. ALCOHOL HAS AN AF- FINITY FOR THE BRAIN. In u her words, the ill effects of alcohol on the human body are chieﬂy due to its action on the brain. When food is eaten it passes into the stomach. Here it is digested or prepared by a chemical process for absorption and use in various parts of the body. This absorption takes place after the food leaves the stomach and enters the intestines. The blood picks up the- prepared substances and carries them to their proper places. Alcohol, however, l3 not digested. n n picked up by the blood, by sbsorption from the sto- mach, without being prepared for use in the body. There are about five quarts of blood in the body and about 55 per cent of the blood goes in the brain. Alcohols effect upon tho brain is to paralyre the nerve centres. The higher develop- ments of the brain, inhibition end reason. are attacked first and most severely. The lower stages of development, heart, lungs and motor control are attacked later. In practice this in how it works. A men may be walking along the street. ﬂeeing e stone. the thought ocoursto hirntothrowit. Here- frsine frun doing this because he realizes that he might hit and hurt someone. Hie power of inhibition helps him to make this ‘ecinion. let us suppose that this men has come recently from a beverage room where he has been drinking beer. Th inhibitory centres of his brain have been paralysed by ll'h)'l0l. The thought comes into his heed to throw s. stone and he does, regard- less of consequences. Drinkers com- mit all sorts of follies while mder the influence of liquor. During the time they are under this inﬂuence they ere in e. sense. criminals and commit criminal acts.

tot us suppose that the drinker takes another drink or two of liquor. His ability to reason clearly becomes effected. Hie memory is confused. Meeting someone on tho street, whom he has never I901! be-_ fore. he greets him u an old friend or perhaps as on enemy and begins to fight. He forgets his own name He does not know where he lives. m- the tlme being he has lowered himself in the intelligence stole to the level of nnlmbecWeJle is in el- fect an animal and has to be cared for by others lest he harm himself

motor control is affected. He stag- gers and ls unable to stand up steadily. He is unable to control the movements of his arms and legs. He becomes as helpless as an in- font.

Of course, a day or two later when the effects of the alcohol have worn off. the men is normal again. ‘more ls one effect, however. that does not wear off completely. The inhibitory control, having been perelylcd are left slightly weeken- edJlvei-y timetbeman getsdr-unk he weakens the-m further. Our power of inhibition strengthens the will and therefore our resistance to the temptatiml of drink, but every drink that in taken weakens this resistance. This is one of the rea- sou why an habitual drinker becomes so spineless and lacking in will-power. m many cases he pro- lessee s desire to quit the drink- ing habit and yet looks the will- power to refuse the first drink that is offered to him. ' If the drinker takes enough at one time it ll posdble for the effect to go right on to the nerve centres which control the beating of the been sud the breathing of the lungs. There have been cases where drinkers have been dared to drink a large bottle of whiskey at one sitting. The due was taken and within e few hours the drinker was deed. ouch a large amount ct alcohol at one time had paralysed the nerve centres controlling heart. and lungs and the drinker strang- led to death.
