to say that they have "evolvcd" into

any girl who didn't marry before she

Speaking in his own defense, Mr..

The Texas Press Association made

"A good idea TO begin practicing the

After administering the small doses

as set forth in the report, are 80 ultra

in a recent issue Of the Journal OF
American Medical Association. under
the heading. New Evidence Against
Alcohol" the primary results of this
super-scientific quest are set forth In
language reasonably understandable.
After dealing in mass of technical
terms, the Journal says:
These observations bring further
evidence OF the general depression
of the neuro-muscular processes at all
levels of the cerebro-spinal system.
There is depression of even the siri-
plest forms OF motor processes. such
as are found in the eye and finger
movements. Certainly nothing in all
of this suggests any true stimulation
any increase In psychologist or ply
siologic efficiency. Impairment seems
to be the keynote expressed by the
depression. Here is the statement
of the Nutrition Laboratory investi-
gators:
celebration, the general neuro-muscu-
lar depression may be regarded as
presumptive evidence of the effect of
alcohol on organic efficiency. In
none OF our data is there any indica-
ton of pure facilitation effect Of
alcohol
These scientific findings leave the
conclusion of Quensel unimpeached
Work and alcohol he said. do not
belong together, especially when
work demands wide-awakeness, at
tention, exactness and endurance
'Wide-awakeness, attention. exact
ness and endurance"
These are fundamental needs in
any kind of work. And the Carnegie
scientists have proved there is no in
dication that alcohol facilitates any
function, physical or mental. They
have proved that even in most mod
crate quantities it depresses even the
simplest body movements.
The moderate drinker cannot ham
die pencil as well as the non-drink-
err. He can't think so quickly He
Is unable to rivet his attention TO such
degree. He tires sooner. In short,
he is in every way less able to do
good work than the non -drinker.
This Is the verdict OF the supreme
court of science. There's no more
sentiment or bias in this than a po-
tato peeiing. What will the booze
folk now do with their highly priced
moderate drinker?
