LESSON II (lmlos)

llﬂlilliil»: HEALTH AND BOMB

Everyone should strive ior the three H's-health, home an heaven. Anyone who attains these will find much happiness thrown in as a bsnue. In today's lesson w, _re going to consider alcohol as relates to health and home.

Syl Apps Says

Many boys and tewer girls want to excel 1n some kind o! sport. In modern competitive sports there is no place ior a. weakling, or for one ‘who is even slightly under par. I thought some oi the boys. particuiazly, would like to know what. Syl Apps, capiain oi the Maple Leaf Hockey Team, thinks about alcohol. I liked Syl ior a statement on this question and this it what he said, "Any boy who wants to be a good athlete should leave alcohol alone. it is definitely harmful." Coaches of athletic teams in both Canada and he United States would endorse vhat Syl Apps has said, Alcohol silpairs muscular coordination so zhat the speed, accuracy and ltamina oi a player are lowered. imagine the eiiect upon team ipirit should some o! the key men render themsslves second-rate through alcohol.

Through continued use oi alcohol a person is running a real risk oi harming certain essential organs or glands oi the bcdy. Dr. Grant L. Dolinelly iii his book, Alcohol snd the Habit’. Forming Drugs. says: “What happens to the stom- ach oi a man who has been drink- ing large amounts oi alcohol ior several years? The mucous lining, once delicate and pink, is not de- lioate and pink any longer. It is thick and has a leather-like ap- pearance.

Alcohol weakens the kidneys. Kidneys filter the blood. removing some waste materials. Without your kidneys you would die in a 10W hours. The extentof damage to the kidneys depends upon the amount oi liquor consumed, how long the habits persists. and the kind oi alcohol drunk. Indirectly alcohol abliiflblltBl to the dread dlsﬂde turberculosis.

Alcohol Changes Character

In s previous lesson we said that alcohol changes the person- ality and tilat the changed person is always inferior; Robert Louis Stevenson's story. The Strange Case oi Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. tell! oi how an honourable man, Dr. Jekyll, discovers s potion by means of which he can change hlmseli into Mr. Hyde. a loathsome character who lives will-long n- straint simi plunges into all man- ner of evil, He uses another potion to change h'r.nseli back into Dr, Jekyll. After thus transforming his personality and his character sever al times, Dr, Jekyll ilnds himself lspsing into Mr. Hyde without taking the potion. In despair, he commits suicide. in much the same way as Dr. Jekyll's potion, al- cohol acts as a demoralizing agent especially ii errugh liquor is con- sumed. and i! the habit oi drink- ing is formed. It is easy to un- derstand the oit repeated testi- “when lie is sober he is a good husband and father. but when he has been drinking . . ." Uniortunately what ls related to the ‘courts in some cases is true in thousands .oi other cases which never come be- iore the courts.

They may not only become the victims of brutal beaitings but oi brutal attitudes, Children need the sympathetic undtrstanding oi loving parents, and to be denied this is to be denied a birthright. Many parents are utterly ignorant oi the blighting eiiects oi their behaviour upon their children, Dr. E. A.

One of the saddest features of recent years is the inuesse in drinking by women. Won-nan have been striving ior whstt they call, "equlity oi the sexes" Often this is taken to mean that women have just as much light tn smoke, drink and gamble as have men. Why woman should striveto copy they foibles of men is a pusale, The wlie and mother establishes the moral standards oi! the home, and woe to that home ‘where mother hrs no standards. Alcohol afiecta women in exactly the same way as it does men, cnly more so. In homes where both parents drink there is a good chance that there will be qusrreiling, bitterness. bad lan- guage and little respect ior Christ- ian principals o! liic,

casual observers, thatt they "will no: have even a remote chance for happiness and success in life. The alcoholism oi a iather or mother. and the home conditions it pro- duces. have loaded the dice against them."

Security o! Jobs

One oi the signiiicant trends of modern times is the striving oi man for stcurity oi jobs in times of deprcsson. Many businesses have set up sickness insurances schemes and pension iunds it!’ em- ployees to take care of illness and old age. The increasing use oi be- verage aicohol cuts right across this move-vent toward security by creating those conditions that make the iu'ure most lincei-‘alirl.

With all the advances in science, and trained scientists are working dilignetly on the sub- ject oi beverage alcohol, there is no rway, yet discovered, to tell who will became the victim o: alcohol. We know that scme drinkers will become alroholics, but. we crnnot tell which ores. Alcohol respects no particular age, race, or intell- ectual level, It realps its h~rvest from among rich and poor, clever and dull, young and old.

Pllnning Your Home

Obviously our young ‘readers are in no position to alter the home environment in which they live. But oi one thing they can be sure: they will be the creators oi homes in a iew short, years. We urge them to do some clear thinking and some cerciul planning ior that home. What kind or a home will those homes be?

was also the home ior a while of the outstanding race horse “Captain Aubrey" who became known irom one end oi the Province to the other.

“We arentQoing anywhere, are we?" she asked. "We really could- n't, you know, without asking = Mother."

"Just going to travel in imag- ination, little lady-J’ began Sir Al- ochol.

"Is that a. new kind oi car? I know the names oi quite a num- ber oi cars, but I don't seem to have heard of that one. But Jerry will know. He knows all about cars," and she looked proudly at her twin.

"Don't be silly." whispered Jer- ry, hoping that the silly little man hadn't heard her. “He means -means just pretending we're go- ing ior a ride. Just imagine this moonbezm is a long road and we're spinning along at ever so many miles an hour past houses and trees and—"

“What if we crash into some- thing ii we're going ‘so iast?" ask- ed Jovce with alarm. “It would be terrible to break the glass in the windshield or one of the head- lights or something beiore Daddy even sees his new car."

"Who's going to break wind- sliieids or headlights? You couldn't do that in an imaginary drive, silly.”

"Nor in a real one. either," in- terrilpted the little man in front. "If you're talking about this car oi ours-J’

“You attended to it?" It was Jerry who interrupted this time.

"Oii course. Who else? Haven't 1 explained beiore that it is my business -one oi my businesses- to be a good mixer, and because of that I have to do a great many things that no one else can do."

"'I'hat sounds very conceited!’ said Joyce prhrnly. “I mean it's conceited to talk so much about one's self."

"But how else can I answer all your questions? I can't help it ii I'm so necessary to the people who run big factories and make

Turning to Sir Alcohol Jerry asked politely, "was it by mixing things that aren't very, very mixy that you keep glass irom break- ing?" t

"You've heard oi unshatterable glass-or perhaps‘ you haven't." said Sir Alcohol. and he looked straight at Joyce.

“Oi course I have." she declared at once. “I heard Daddy talking about it to the man at the auto- mobile show And I know what it that won't break."

“I've been able to do something very iine ior you. and ior this au- tomobile trade too, oi course, in making unshatterable glass pos- sible. Ii it weren't (or me, however, in the world would tho glass-mak-

"I never heard of such s word," said Joyce indignwV-Y- “You're teasing us."

“Is it really a word?" asked Jer- ry. wishing that his sister would not be so dlstrustiul oi_ the little man whom he was beginning to admire. "I'm going to study chem- istry some day and I\know there will be many strange long words to learn and remember. Perhaps that is one oi them."

"That's it Jerry. And if you're going in'1or chemistry some day you and I should begin now to be firm iriends, for you'll iind me a most useful chap about a labor- atory," then looking at Joyce, he continued, "and a laboratory. miss. is a place where the chemist or scientist does his work. when he wants to mix one thing —perhaps something solid like the new sub- stance I mentioned that you'll know about some day- with some- thing elsc~perhaps water -- and they just don't mix, his business is to find something that will blend with both and just make them mix.

Gloves Are High’

Fashions

How much do you know about than important accessories that are considered "the mark of a lady" —gloves'.'

They've come to mean so much more than protection against weather. -They've come to be high fashion.

Gloves began their tradition st least a thousand years before Christ. Before the thirteenth cen- tury, women were allowed to wear only fingerless gloves, the type we know as mittens. But after tho year 1200 the gale ware permitted to wear finger-gloves, made of lin-

en.

During the Restoration, gloves became really quite fashionable, and they symbolized - according to their styling —— such attributes as "virtue", "purity", “love" and "peaceiulness."

Modern gloves are now made to match clothes and accessories. They've been brought to a iine line. Now, most oi the better gloves an hand-made. Even cheaper gloves that are machine-made try to imi- tate the deslgns and iine detail of the hand-made models.

._ were shy anywhere they would be at the White House, but you weren't needed there."

"Yes," said Sir Alcohol, "but that was a sort o! government oc- casion you know."

“Take Shirley Temple too. She was very angry when the papers said there was alcohol at her party. She had all sorts of good eats, but no dlcohol."

"It's iine that you are such s good mixer in the laboratory." said Jerry. wishing Joyce would not. be so hard - on Sir Alcohol, for after all he was a guest.

“But mixers at parties are an- other matter." persisted Joyce stuhbornly.»"You need to be the right sort of mixer." /

"Yes," he admitted reluctantly, "I heard Mary Gray say once that her lather was too good a mixer: He goes to the beer parlour evew evening and is such a good mixer that first one man treats him. than another, then he treats them to beer. and sometimes when he comes home he hasn't any money left and Mary and her mother can't have new shoes or clothes. No wonder they hate beer and aill the alcohol and everything that goo: into it, Oh, I iorgot! I'm so sorry."

“Don't be sorry. It's I who should be sorry." and Joyce believed. from his tone that he really meant it. “How would you ieel it you knew that some girl and her mother had to go without clothes just because a. man who was like- able in every other way didn‘t know that you were more useful outside than inside his body? You wouldn't like it either. Neither do I, I can't think why s0 many mm like Mr. Gray begin to do it."

"I do." It was Jen-y who spoke this time. "He's a know, and I heard him sag that a man needed a little drink after driving in all weathers. It wanna him up."

"That's the greatest mistake OI all." said Al. quite erossly. "Mr. Gray, and many like him. Just

think they are being warmed. The! like to think it became '51!” like

the iun and iriendllness of the

beeir parlour and the feeling at be- ing good iellowe. But the

first really is just taking warm. which is kept; up by the b running swiftly through tbs body, out to the skin where it be quickly ielt. The flush warmth is just on the surface the! and won't last long."

"It's strange to hear you saying that Mr. Al." Joyce hesitated dvd the name.

"I'd like to tell everyone. spscial- ' iy girls and boys, how harmful as i

well as how helpful I can be. It‘! their iaul-t, not mine, when things

go wrong, and they can't begin toe _ v

soon to think about it." (To Be Continued)
