with out any study in the
schools showing exactly how alcho-
hol affects different parts OF the
body, Shakespeare sums the whole
up in these words: Tho l am old.
yet l am strong and lusty. For in

Therefore my age is as a lusty win
ter. Frosty, but kindly.
Milton, in his Sampson Agonisse s
brings before us a picture'of splendid
physical strength, firm muscles,
strong nerves, clean blood and a
brain free from drugs and says: o

champion, strong above compare,
whose drink was only from the
limpid brook"
We r getting ready for a medal
contest. Watch for date.
