INTOXlCATION A RELIC
 OF HIGHER ASPIRATIONS.

IntoXication according to Dr. c. E. Partridge was originally an accom- paniment and the source of those eN- alted psychical states necessary for the development of individual and ra- rial consciousness, which meant en- larged mental horizon and the lifting of individuals and nations Co levels Of constructive mental activity. u time the race acquired the nZati0n of these levels. and the intoXication pre- served its usefulness.
 "The impulse survives toCay in it's harmful aspects" says the New York Medical Journal m revleWns Dr. Partridge's book Studies in the Psychology ,of Intemprancc. ana continues: "It no longer has a great function 10 perform. It dominates in- diyiduals and special groups whether are unable to reach these higher lev, els of activity, to direct their vital energies into these channels, and SO are dependent upon it's temporary and ieniciet .exhilaration They find in it also a social reaction likewise m. adequate and evanescent, but a feeble survival Of the effective social awak. ening that intoxication produced in the early history of mankind The uar- cosis Of alcohol or other drugs Is now merely a refuge for those whose men tai organization demands release from the too great pressure which they are unable to meet in ceaseless struggle for existence and advance, the unequal struggle between instinc- tive forces and ethical conditions
 According to Dr. Partridge, the cure for habitual intoMcation must con- sist in directing the activities of the sufferer to higher spheres, which must be such as are capable of arousing an interest sufficient to stimulate and sustain him in his best endeayor.
