DOES ALCOHOL AID CREATIVE ABILITY?

By Harry 6. Warner

That mild stages of intoxication in some mystical fashion give freer play to creative mental activities, is an impression that has prevalledi for ages. It is found especially a- mong the followers of writers. poets. dramatists. and it is fondly sup- ported by some of these men of genius themselves. Biographers of great leaders. men of public af- fairs, statesmen. philosophers. in- dustriaiists, have echoed similar opinions. as to the drinking cus- toms of their heroes.

For ages alcohol has seemed to be an effective means of releasing emotions and abilities that are fin- er, more profound or brilliant than they would be without its aid. Men of genius have counted on it, have employed and praised it. By infer- ence and imitation vast numbers of men of ordinary or lesser abil- ity have turned to it without quea- tlon as an aid to whatever they de- sire to be or to accomplish. However, the idea and its liter- ' ary ideology are illusory. products of wishful thinking and subjective writing. Through all the history of great literary accomplishment. there has stood out another list of men, men of supreme ability whose creative activity has been clearly dissociated from wine and the wine cup; and yet othersgwho have even questioned its value. describ- ed its xcesses, and won their fame in spite of it.

Even in the period of heaviest drinking in England, when the custom was well-nigh universal. the list of non-drinking writers was disproportionately great. A- mong these were Milton. Shelley, Wordsworth. Southey and Tuiny- son. In modern times Bernard Shaw says: "Alcohol knocks off the last inch of efficiency which. in all really fine work. makes the difference between first-rate and second-rate." ,

It istnot clear reasoning to in-i fer that slumps in mental ability that transform an auto driver into ii. public menace on the highway will bring constructive aid to a thinker. a writer. an artist. in the fine. creative work he seeks to do. And the scientific explanation is no longer in doubt.

Alcohol impairs constructive a- bility. rather than increases it. De- pressing. as it does. the highest and most sensitive complex of hu- man capaoities. the centres of man s intellectual and spiritual resources. it permits the lower and the more automatic to take control of the personality. The changes are mark- ed in thought and conversation. in form' of emotional expression: in receding self-control. in the re- placing of self-observation and criticism by sci!-exploitation and exhibitionism. in display! Of, prim- ary emotions, in confused mental processes. am; with the cultured character of, the individual and his higher 300' ial standards.

Spring- field. exchangsd marriage vows with Errol Boyd Bagnsili, I-lazel Grove. The ceremony was performed iuadar an arch of tiny pink roses.

charity enough to see some "good in your neighbor; love enough to "move you to be useful and helpful to others: faith enough to make real the things of God: hope e- nough to remove all anxious fears concerning the future."

And now the end of another week. "One week nearer to Fall vacation." says Ron optimistically. as he helps me to pick a pan of beans. How we enioy the garddn's harvest these days. Beets. carrots. beans and so on are at their very best. The sun is a shimmering golden globe as it rides high across the heaven's dome. Bees hum drowsily as they garner " supply of sweetness from flower and bloa- sosn. A bilge combine wheels up the road past the gate and the wheels droning seems to say "Summer is about over." Our feathered friends deny this assertion loudly as their bursts of song seem louder and more cheerful than ever. A tiny humming bird, like a bit of this- tledown. pays us a visit every day. hovering over tha marigolda as if entrained. But we know the lovely summer is fading and such delu- sions are only "bits of hoarddd A- pril - strange to hear. amid the languor of the fading year."

Strange But True

When he tagged his wife's sum- mobile for over-parking, a police- man in Summerside. Prince Ed- ward Island, wrote on the back of the ticket: "Who's boss now, eh?"

No one is ever too old to learn. but many people keep putting it off. '

Suddenly inherited wealth is just about the worst thing that could happen to an individual.

Not having the proper training to guard the suddenly acquired fortune and invest it wisely, is but one of the many problems you'd meet.

Countless agents. with something to sell or give away. would beat 1 well-worn path to your door. so- licitors for charitable organizations and whatt not, would descend upon you like ii plague of locusts on a field of grain; you would be the victim of confidence men. quacks and beggars.

A Toronto woman who inherited In fortune not so long ago. received a letter from a total stranger ask- ing for 32,000 so she could start raising a family.

A Montreal man who came by is fortune through an uncle in the U. E. A.. got a letter from a crank who wanted tl0.000. If he didn't get the money by return mail, he threatened to blow out his brains and have a friend mail them to the Montrealer,

Upon the receipt of this news the wealthy Montresler pulled up stakes and sailed for France where he is still living. so I don't know whether the money or the brains ever got into'the mails.

Instead of yearning for sudden riches we should thank our lucky stars the Fates kept us poor, or at any-rate, just above poverty.

Believe me, money lsn”t every- thing.

Strangest of all ceremonial CIl'Il'iIl5 is that of the Vapes Indians of the Upper Amazon in Brazil. South America. They have a drink which they believe will symbolical- ly transmit ih:m to all qualities of those who have gone to the happy hunting grounds.

These Indians cremate their dead to a very fine ash which they save and add to a drink called Casire. Then they drink it with all the pomp and ceremony the tribe can muster.

We now learn that cows can be identified positively by taking a print of their noses. Every member of the bovine family has a dis- tinctive iioseprint just as every human has El distinctive finger print. This should do away with the cruel practice of branding now in vogue among all large cattle ranches.

Snakes do not have vocal cords. and a single silk worm is capable of producing a thread about 800 to loot) yeards in length.

More effective than fines for reckless driving would be to make the offender spend a. week in lins- pital watching the accident victims being brought in.

"33-years can Napoleon Magotte left his home in Ottawa. on ii shopping tour. He got back last month.

"Magottek wife. who found her man in ai Toronto hospital, learned that he had lost his memory.

"so, instead of going shopping in Ottawa, Magoite boarded A train, rode it to Vancouver and back to Toronto. where he picked up a job and worked for aayears before he was located and claimed by his wife and daughter.”

sounds fantastic. but then truth is stranger than fiction.

Since 1920 the U. 8. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Canadian Government have banded 6.000.000 birds from their 1000 banding stations. This banding service en- ables cunservationists to determine migratory routes, distribution. and other facts.

It's a curious fact that most waterfowl are different rain other bright-colored birds in that during the summe they acquire what cor- responds to the dull plumage of other birds.

waterfowl also differ from most birds in that they lose all their flight feathers at once and for sev- eral weeks are unable to fly. Once they have replaced their flight feathers. they start coming back in- to their bright breeding plumage again.

Every farm boy and girl in mm- iliar with tame geese. Close obser- vation has taught them how the father and mother goose brings up their little ones. They know, for instance, that the gender merely accompanies his mate to the nest and than stands on guard: he nev- er takes over the egg-setting job. But he stays close by his mate though the incubation period and takes a hand in raising the babies.
