Diutlaul Reading: PhlUppiana 4:4-8. ..... .i. .N.H —I— In Two Ways Lesson for August 5, 1956 THE United State* now baa more drug addicts than all other western nations combined—sixty thousand. In the past three years the Federal Bureau of Narcotics has compiled a list of names and addresses of 30,000 known addicts, and the list is growing at the rate a thousand every month. '3H These and other F faet* were® brought to light last January by a v'” | | Senate Judiciary Subcommittee V after seven ■ months seeking the facts. Illegal ® c - ' dope traffic, they ® r ’ Yoreman found out, has trebled since World War IL Whereas at the war’s end there was one addict to every 10,000 persons, now there is one to every 3,000. Approximately 50% of all erime in our cities, and 25% of all crime in the nation at large, is traceable to drug addiction. H«w Dm It Start! The narcotics evil, like the alcohol evil, like most social sores, begins with the young people. If for one generation you could bring up children and young people with no knowledge of such things and no temptation to Indulge, you would have dealt a heavy blow to those who traffic tn these things. Nobody, no healthy boy or girl certainly, wants to be the sort of wretch Frank Sinatra played la “The Man with the Golden Arpn,” or the kind of persons you may find in the hospitals that try to de something with narcotics victims. But young people the traffic must have. Thirteen per cent of all dope addicts in the country are under 21. (These figures from TIME magazine for last Jan. 16.) Now, ’ how does a boy or girl get started on the dope habit? How do they get started drinking? The other night a boy in his second stolen car tor that night knocked in two store fronts and woke up in the hospital His girl friend woke up next iporning in jail. Both were about sixteen, -bo tn...MO neea drinking—beer, she said. The question is, Why do they do it? What starts them oft? Letting Yourself De - v One answer given.by young people themselves is that they ar* after thrills, "a kick.” Just being young is hot thrill enough, they have to jazz it up with alcohol or narcotics. Let yourself go! they ’say to themselves. Go on, faster, faster; when all the thrill nature provides arei stale, then go after the artificial jolts you can get from a bottle or a hypodermic syringe.- This is not all the fault of young people. Older people often

lead them astray. Even teachers may do it, tor there is a philosophy of education that says, fa effect, that a child must never be made to do what he doesn’t want to do. “What I want” is supposed to be the key to happiness. Now this is precisely the opposite of the Christian way of living. Self-con-trol, not letting yourself go, is always a mark of the Christian life in every New Testament description of it. Life without inner control is not only a weak life, it is headed for a crash. Who’s to Blame? Sometimes the blame for young people's downfall is not to be laid at the door of the traffickers in drugs. Parents themselves who have never said “No” may be to blame. Some years ago a school for girls received this letter from a wealthy woman: “My daughter has always been spoiled and given as much money as shr could spend. She is sixteen years old and I’m afraid has the wrong view of life ... I don’t think her companions are just the right sort either ... I shall try Very hard to, have her wardrobe proper although it will be extremely difficult because she has always had very expensive and extremely fancy clothes. T. . Please advise as to what subjects she had better take up. If either Latin or domestic science can be taken I prefer D.S. because she knows very little about cooking. I am very glad the girls are requestecf to keep their rooms fa order ... It is my wish that my daughter becomes what a real American girl should be, a perfect wife and mother, and under your care I hope she will come home to us a different girt” Do you think she did? Do you think she could have? If you had been fa charge of that school, would you have accepted this girl? If she finally turned out to be an alcoholic or a narcotic drug addict, whose fault would it have been? The Christian Way is the harder road— till you get to the end! At no time is shade mor# important to you than when you’re a shade better than the other fellow.
