No Liquor Defense \' * — Lessen for October 25, 1953 ON THE SOUTH side of a large sign in front of a Methodist church on a main highway are the words: LIQUOR HAS NO DEFENSE. The church did not invent that expression; it is a quotation from Abraham Lincoln. On the opposite side of the sign, drivers coming the other way see this: Drink rive eath Even the companies that make money out of drunkenness (the' more liquor, the more profits) know that the north side of the sign is true, and will say so in large paid advertisements. Liquor certainly has no defense as a drink for drivers. But some of the other defenses put up for alcholic liquor as a beverage that “belongs,” that is part of the social scene, do not sound so good when they are taken down and looked at with a cold and sober eye. Alcohol Is A Drug The one thing that defenders of alcoholic beverages invariably keep

quiet about, is the simple fact that > alcohol is a drug. a harmful drug, a habit - forming drug. No amount of advertising can talk that fact out of existence. That it is a fact, can be witnessed to by anybody—he does not have to

Dr. Foreman

be a preacher!—who has had to deal with the wretched people at the bottom of the slide that was lubricated with liquor. Alcoholics are sick people; that is a recog* nlzed fact; but alcoholism differs from all the other diseases in the book in this one vital thing: ’ No one can say to himself, I refuse to have tuberculosis, I will never have cancer. He may come down with those dilbaseg in spite of his best intentions. But any one may sav to himself: I will never be an alcoholic. And he can make that : resolution stick, simply by staying away from alcohol. On the other hand, no man or woman who mixes alcohol in his system can ever be quite sure he will not be an alcoholic. No alcoholic ever meant to be one. • • • Drugs Have No Drakes Now the trade in alcoholic liquor is legal; trade in other drugs such as heroin, cocaine and similar drugs, is strictly illegal except for medicinal purposes through regular pharmacists, and on doctors* prescriptions. Still there are a great many people who in spite of, the difficulties do manage to buy and use these forbidden drugs, and of course there are always the conscienceless people who sell the stuff to the addicts. But let Us suppose we listened to the defenses of ordinary liquor, if applied to other drug habits. How ridiculous they would sound! We are told that the habit of drinking liquor is a long-estab-lished American way of life. Well, the taking of, cocaine is long-es-tablished too. People will buy liquor—legally or illegally; they will buy heroin too in spite of all the laws. People will steal cars, and forge checks—it’s been done a long time. But that doesn’t make it rights ' Or again, consider the pleasure people get out of liquor. Why, of, course. They get an even keener pleasure out of shots of other drugs than alcohol. Every time you put a drug addict into a sanitarium you deprive him of his greatest pleasure in life. But that does not make his habit any better. But, it will be said, self-control is the answer; a drug used in moderation is not so harmful as when used to excess. True; but the trouble'is, no drug has brakes, and drugs of the kind that alcohol and heroin are, actually weaken self-control instead of making it stronger. Staff And Nonsense . The reader can amuse (or horrify) himself by thinking of other antique arguments used to bolster the cause of those who use, or who profit by other men’s use of, alcoi holic liquors. How do they sound when used in defense of other drug habits? "The Illegal drug business gives employment to thousands.” "To Interfere with this traffic is to interfere with free enterprise, the right of every man to make his living as he sees fit.” "To interfere with this traffic is to interfere with men’s personal liberty. Even if a man ruins himself with cocaine, it’s his own business.” y This Week’s Bible Verse - “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth Me, shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.’’—John 8:12.

THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR CHURCH ATTENDANCE " ■- ’■ •* ■ (Mrs. James R. Meadows) The need of church' attendance never was greater than now 1 . Your personal welfare and the interests of the church require if. No organ--ization can survive the persistent non-attendance of those who have pledged themselves to its support. It is not-, therefore, a trifling matter to attend, but an important contribution to a great cause. ' You may also have learned by experience that;it is. easier to attend churph regularly than only occasionally. Regular attendance is a pleasure'. Occasional attendance is'tod often a task. Your time and personal influences are bidding for your attention. These may be all right in their place and at the proper time, but' not as a substitute for churchgoing, for it would mean, in the end, a great personal loss to you and your children. The churches of Adams county extend to you a cordial invitation to worship with them.
