OCTOBER 15th THE BOY MARKED "PRIVATE" (Junior) Once upon a time there was a certain DihLDCSS ilrtn called Self, Llllmted. Luke most. businesses. it be- gan in a very small way, but; it grew so rapidly, both lll size and unpert- ance. that Mr. self, lhe owner had, L0 engage and. train n general mun- _ agcr and a secretary to assist him 111 ills affairs. The manager's name was MI‘. Criticism, and the secret- ary's, Mix Memory. Mr. Criticlcln was a rather ser- ious-mlnded person, with a, strong sense of duty any of the conduct. manners and general behaviour which were w be expected from a firm of such standing as Self, Lim- ited. Wherever Ml‘. Self went, there went MI. Criticism at his elbow, noticing everything, and always ready with u ulhrspreed word of ad- vice, encouragement or warning. Mr. Self relied on hls good judgment in everything. and as a result the firm of Self, Limited, was held 1n great respect wherever it was known. '1he Secretary. Miss Memory, was equally valuable to the flrm. She made notes of everything that ha. - vpened and entered tilem in spec note-books. all carefully indexed, so that. at a. moment's, notice she could turn to anything required. Most of her note-books she car- ried about with her tucked under her arm or in her pockets, but there was one book she always kept 1n a box. which she would allow no one else to touch. The bOX lavas marked "Private," and Mr. Criticism kept the key on his watch chain. When the firm was about twenty- five years 01d it happened that. Mr. Self was invited to spend the even- ing at the house of e friend, and of course MI’. Criticism and Ml§ Mem- pry went. with him. for he could not get on without them even on such on occaslon. Among the guests was a certain Mr. Intoxicants; he seem- ed a. very agreeable fellow. and everyone but Ml’, Self was on very familiar terms with him. “What!” exclaimed the host. "D0 ~ you mean to say you don't know him‘? I must introduce you at. once. Intoxlcanbs is quite the most de- dream of giving a part" without him; he manages to get everybody talking and laughing in no time, and makes them all feel unusually pleas- ed with themselves." “Inmtxlcanw? repeated Mr. Self. “I'm sure I've heard the name be- fore, Miss Memory, one moment, please; turn up any notes you have about Mr. Inloxicants." Miss Memory found the place in her note-book at once. " three notes about him, Sir." bri~kly. “First. h. sermon you heard last October on Temperance Sun- day, warning everyone against even glee most casual friendship with lm." “Excuse me." said Mr. Irltoxicflnis at Mr. selfs elbow, "I couldn't help overbearing what your secretary just read. I'm surprised you let hel- worry you with such rubbish!" “Note Number Two," said Miss Memory, ignoring the interruption; "severa gentlemen of your ac- quaintance, Mr. Self. have come to grief soon after becoming intimate friends with Mr. Intoxlcants.” “But why blame me for the dis- astcrWasked Mr. Intoxicnntg indig- nuntly. “How do you know they Lvoud not have come to grief any- "your mother, when you were a boy, begged you never to have anything to do with this gentleman." "Poof!" ex laincd Mr. Intoxlcanhs, tcstily. He s ipped a finger into lvlz‘. sclf's buttonhole and drew him on one side. "Look here, my dear fel- low.“ he sold confidently. “you're uite out ofthings on an occasio Ike this without my llclp. Every- olle's staring and whispering be- came they see you are not on inti- mate terms with me, and-I hope you wont feel hurt-your- conversa- tion ls desperately sensible and dull and polite. Come, be a sport and make friends, even if it is only for this evening, and see i-f I don't help you to be the lion of the party!" Ml'. Sclf felt very uncomfortable. After Miss Mommy's notes he knew he ought to refuse Mr. Inmxtlcants’ help, but at the name time he could not llclp feeling that. the other gllileists were thinking him odd and u . “I'd be careful what I wBs about, ISIr." whispered Cllllclslll in his ear. r “I'd be careful how I let an old ‘spoil sport dictate i0 Me!" whisper- ed Mr. IIltOXlClIllls in the other ear. “You are a slllV mull!" “Oil come alcnu then!" exclaimed Mr. Self. lmDfltlOllllV. “I'll be friends with you for tonlgh ." "That's a sensible fellow!" cried Mr Intoxicanus, nnd elbowing M1‘. Criticism to one side he squeezed his chair 1n next to Mr. Self and sat lightful companion; I should never m‘ charming P9 ow?" "Note Three," read Miss Memory, bad! Y! power of self-criticism? felt dull and out oi he began to talk more raise his voice so as “Birl Sir!" whisper wxicants tails. "You're preventing other peo- pie talking, I E worth hearing.’ . Intoxicants nudged Mr. Crit- icism sharply with his elbow. “Shut up!" he owled: but in M1‘. Sfilf he exclaimed?‘ "Excellent! Excellent! I knew you would be a brilliant talker if you let yourself go. There's jus one little fault; youre too 300d)’- goody and polite; could not your secretary tum up a few stories s. lit.- tle more highly flavoured?" - “Mr. Self Mr. Self!" cried Mr- Crlticism. “You'll be ashamed oy w- mcrrow morning of lowering your- self like this." Mar. Intoxico-nm kicked Mr. 011M0- ism violently under the table. "Wtll you be quiet, you stupid!" he nixed, "Miss Memory has some swear words. and c. few nasty bits of gos- sip and some secrets in the note- book thavs looked up in that box she always carries about with her," said Mr. Self. "I'll tell her t0 get out the swear words and the goss p~the secrets of course, I've promised not to tell anyone." “Never mind about. the key!" said Mr. Intoxicants. seizing the box. With one wrench he pulled 0i! the gig and out fell the carefully gimm- "There you are. Self!" dried be. "Now see if you can't make every- one sit up!" There was no doubt, about it, Mr. Self did make them “sit up." Hie used the bod language. he fold all the nasty bits of gossip, and then he hinted about the secrets. "Not the secrets!" shrieked Miss Memory, “You can't use them!" "Can't!" snapped Mr. Intoxicanis. “Of ‘course he can! Nancy stopping now." So Mr. Self told the secrets. he swaggered and boosted about "Mo. and lf no one else thought him a fine fellow, he was sure of 1i. him- self. "Capital!

I did my best to check you. but. how could I get your at- tention when you let Intoxicants silp ln between us?" "I did not notice he had done that," said Mr. self.

Intermediate Senior By EDITH LANG [looking over the last lesson we are new in a position to Judge what is the effect of drinking small quantities of liquor on the drinkers ability to drive an alim- mobile in the highway. There is still much controversy fLs number of accidents which are the direct. result. of drinking, and it is sometimes said that as few as 1.5 Der cent. of accidents am due to drunken drivers. But that f.s not. a. scientific wsy of stating the prob- lem, as ll. ls not. the drunken driv- er who does the most harm. but the person who has taken small quantities. of liquor, and by so doinii has blunted his judgment. increased his self-complacency, and down.

Two sets of figures give an ides of the size of the problem. 1. An increased number of ac- cidents always coincides with an increased mount of liquor sold. From the Dominion Bureau off Statistics come these figures: Be- tween 1933 and 1937 the umount. of spirits sold increased 73.4 per cent. tle amount of beer sold increased 211.4 per cent, motor fatalities In- creased 87 per cent, highway ac- cidents increased 100 per cent. 2. Dr. Thomas Gonzales, chief medical examiner for New York City, who has made alcohol tests in all violent deaths for the past. twenty years. 1n reporting for the years 1936 and 1937, stated that 40 per cent. of all victims of motor fatalities were found to have been drinking. and that one out of every three (33 1-3 per cent.) pedestrians killed by automobiles were found to have been drinking. In several countries, and in many parts of Canada. scientists have been wol-klng on how little alcohol 1n a man's blood w!!! make him incapable of sazfe drivlnfl. 'f‘lley are practically unanimous on the following smteirlerlts. If a mun has from 1 to 3 parts alcohol i0 1.000 parts blood. he is "convivial". 1f he ssfrosn-itofipartsslcoholto 1,000 parts blood. he is belligerent. (This is of crimes like more parts alcohol to 1.000 parts blood. he is a “dead drunk" heavy sleep, or dead. It; is in the first group that the dangerous drivers come.

[If there are 2 tn 3 parts alcohol to |1.000 parts blood. the mun “sci-s double," tottcns. is incohcrcu. fum- bllnz and lmistcl-ous; fcclinq and ain are lessened. He also estimates hat the almmgc adult lliliVT nor- mal conditions. who (lrlllks two glasses of 4 per rout bc-“r uvhlch is weaker than the beer sold ln Canada) will have a concentration 0f 1 part alcohol in a thousand parts of his blood. Professor Jocelyn Rozcrs of Tor- . onto University spends much of hi: | time hinting blood for the presence -. of alcohol. He gives it. as his con- , sldered statcmrrnt that "the effort, cf small quantities 0f alcohol m} a person's blood is to create qlllck- y 1y a. sense of well-being and Bil un- 1 warranted feeling of c/pllbllllyxi which leads him to take Street chances when he L: less fit to deal with thcln." lie estimates that "any one with an alcohol content of 1.3 per thousand parts of blood is quite unfit to be in control of an auto- mobile." Wlly does alcohol s0 quickly af- fect u man's driving? Driving dc- mands quick and accurate sight. ability to judge distances nnd the relative speed at which his and other curs are travelling, quick and accurate Judsment in on om- ergency knowing what to do, and being able to do it without hesi- tation. Al! of these qualities dc- mnnd perfect musculnr coordina- tion. All depend 0n the snccrl and accuracy of the nerve rencilons. and those reactions are slow-rd up by even a small amount of liquor. To take the lnstber of eyesight- SEC 5L!‘ you. It _ R. Mile; in the United Slat-Es has our eyes do vwo things for us. They sight ahead. and they also will surprise you.) Dr. W. carried out many experiments to best the effect. of alcohol in small quantities (less than one ounce of alcohol in two pints of wafer) on our "side" sight. (1) He found that the angle of vision was much Silliflllftf. The men did not. see nearly as much to either side of them, and a child could step oft the sidewalk on to the road and they could not see it. i2) The time it took to see thlngs not straight ahead increased (Wlbll beer 11.8 per cent, with wins 5.7 per cent.) (3) The time it look to move the eyes increased 6.7 per cent. (4) ‘The distance which one could flee‘; straight ahead decreased one- rd. (5) The eyes did not. coordinate with each other, and so than seamed to be two objects, when really there was only one. (6) The speed in distinguishing of colour was decreased 6 per cent. so that a man would not notice n quldcly an altered traffic light. Pin all these results together and you see at once how much small quan- ties of alcohol impair and huldet our sight some very interesting e - moms have been carried ou on two g-rolws of men. half clf whmn were chauffeurs and half were students. Both sets of men were duly tested for speed and accuracy without any liquor. Then one set was given liquor. Each man um given a small “dosc" of one and e half ounces of alcohol in \\_'.\ZCi for each 150 pounds of his weight The tests were carried out fort! minutes later. The results on thou who had the alcohol were as foi- lows: The time requued to decide what to do was increased 9.7 per cent. The time rcquLrod to do the thing decided upon was increased 1.7.4 p61‘ cent.
