Shanghai Women Are Style Conscious

SHANGHAI, Oct. i7 — (AP) -—| With the tvar over, Shanghai] women once more are acutely clothes-conscious.

This is the style centre oi’ the Drient, but during the Japanese occupation "city" women gener- ally went around in slacks and sweaters. There was little at- tempt to dress well.

But now there's a hungry clamor for dresses of all kinds and eve- ning gowns to match the city's awakening night life. Women here would give almost anything for a 1945 fashion magazine, Their pre- war copies are worn out from use. The few Allied women war correspondents here have been busy answering questions as to the latest European and American Itvles.

On the other hand Shanghai women are astounded to hear oi

SUNDAY. OCTOBER ﬂat LESSON ll (Senior ALCOHOL AND

MINI) By George A. Little and Thomas B. MacDormand

Tho Great Deceiver

“Wine 1s a moeker. strong drink is raging: and whoso- ever is deceived thereby is not wise." Proverbs 20:1.

The writer of these words was a shrewd observer of life. “Wine is a mocker"-it. makes rosy promises to those who will fall for its wiles, and than when sorrow instead of tho promised Joy results, it mocks its victims without mercy, A youngWJ/anadian married a fine Christian girl. While in the army he got drunk, and, in that condi- tion, married a. girl whom he met in a. drinking place. woman immediately applied for his arm! allowance. As a result he was charged with bigamy discharged from the army. and exiled from his home where a broken hearted wlie tries to carry on with two small children. This is one tyne of thing to men and women who are made incapable of reason ct morality when under the influ- ence qf alcoholic drinks. The wise man of Proverbs long ago was strangely up-to-date.

Question: Why is liquor an en- amy of the home?

Project: Obtain and prepare a temperance play for roduction in your Church or Sun ay School. Prayer: Our gracious Father, grant that thy Spirit may lead us into ways of true wisdom as we make our choices. Amen,

Tueday: No Use Talking

Scripture: “He was very drun-k- en: wherefore she told him noth- ing, less or more, until the morn- lihg light." I Samuel 25236.

There is no use talking to a

drunken man. His reason is in bonds to the drug alcohol. He can neither say nor understand any reasonable thing. Abigail, the gal- lant woman of this dramatic sto in I Samuel, is one with the mu- titudes of wives across the centuries who have learned to their sorrow and shame the tragic power of li-

uor to becloud the mind, and dim t e reason.

An intoxicated man was poking around in the dust of the street where the glow of a street lamp fell. A policeman happening along in- quired, “What are you doing here?" The drunk replied, "I lost a quar- ter." The policeman persevered, "But where did you lose it?" "About a. hundred yards up the street," came the prompt reply. “Why, then are you looking for it here?" asked the policeman. “There's more light here," mumbled the man who had sold his powers of reason for the deceptive pleasure of drunkenness.

Question: Why is a drunken man unreasonable?

Prayer: Eternal God, grant wis- dom, charity, faith, and power to all individuals and organizations which seek to make plain the evil of strong drink and the Christian virtue of total abstinence, Amen.

Wcdnesda : Prelude to Crime

Scripture: And when David had called him (Uriah), he did eat and drink before him; and he him drunlrm.” 2 Samuel 11:13.

David's lust stirred him to a crime in which liquor proved a

Thnralay: Thoso Man Weep

Iaiphue: “Awake, ys drunkarda, and weep; and howl, all ye drink- ers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut off from your mouth." Joel 1:5.

Drinking is the cause of many tears. In a large Canadian city recently a young man was found dead by his bed in a cheap board- ing house. He died of acute alco- holism, A few years before he had graduated in law with honours. He became a member of a well-estab- lished and prosperous law firm, and married hap ily. Then he oom- menced drin ing for sons." He went from bad to worse. He was dismissed from his law firm. Dishonest ractices as a means of obtain ng money for more liquor led to his being ex- pelled from the legal profession. At thirty-seven he dlsd in povsrvy and shame, Liquor had robbed him of his wife, his home, his pro- fession, his honour, his life,

ll bear in mind that for every report you happen to see there are hun- dreds in the land which you do not have an opportunity to read. Those who admit; liquor to their lives invite a brood of sorrows with

it.

Question: Why does liquor often lead to crime? Prayer: Our Creator and our God, save us from the cruel dc~ ceptions of the liquor traffic, and grant us clear heads and pure hearts that; we may not sin ainst our fellows or against thee. en.

Friﬂay: Babblera!

Scripture: "Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath conten- tions? who hath babbling?" Pro- verbs 23:20.

The babbling of the intoxicated man is always pathetic, though some regard it as a great joke. To be sure. men say amusing things in such circumstances, but there is nothing funny about it to one who thoughtfully considers the tragic loss of mental control which such silly mouthings indicate. A drunken man will betray the most intimate secrets so the common device used by spies is w serve ll- quor to men and women from whom they hope to secure valmblc stain information. A man under the influence of liquor will any in- decent things which, in his saner moments he would not dream of saying. any a man has lost the respect and confidence of valued friends because of vul ar things said when l uor had $113301‘! the guards poste at tho door of his
