so blind as not to see the reaction
which invariably occurs soon after the
administration of their so-called slim
ulant."
Alcohol Only Seems to Impart Heat
That alcohol makes us warm is an
other delusion. DR.. Newell Martin
explodes this delusion as follows:
Our feeling of being warm de-
ponds on our nerves of the skin. We
have no nerves which tell us whether
the heart or muscles or brain are
cooler. These inside parts are always
hotter than the skin. and If blood
which has been made hot in them
flows in large quantities to the skin
we feel warmer because the skin is
heated as alcoholic drinks make more
blood through the skin, they often
make a man feel warmer, but the
actual effect upon the temperature of
the whole body is to lower it"
The Liquid Bread" Delusion
Leibig, the German chemist, says:
"If man drinks daily or 10
quarts of best Bavarian beer in a year
he will have taken into his system
the nutritive constituents contained
in five pound loaf of bread"
Eight quarts day would be 1920
quarts, or % barrels. This, at 10
cents pint, would cost 1894.
The Good Whisky" Delusion
Whisky is composed of water and
about 40 per cent alcohol with some
coloring and favoring matter.
The old folks who talk of the good
whisky" of the good old times do not
stop to consider the character of alco-
hol-which is always bad.
The remaining topics cannot be dis
cussed in the space allotted, but the
delusion is continuous. When a pupil
gets this point clear he knows enough

WASHINGTON HOTELS

Modern hotels equal to any in
the country are found in Wash
ington. In addition to these
there are large number OF
rooming houses and homes that
rent furnished rooms to tran
sients at reasonable rate where
visitors may enjoy a quiet rest
when they desire. Many rooms
have also been specially listed
for the accommodation of con-
.vention visitors. Hotel rates
run from 81 per day per person
upward. Practically all hotels
are on the European plan.
Meals may be obtained at

DELUSIVE EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL
"A TEACHERS VIEWPOINT

In sickness alcohol has been used
as a food and as a medicine. The
fidelity with which this tradition has
been transmitted to the present gen
Grafton is amazing to one who believes
in the efficacy of the public schools.
The following facts are obvious:
|. The effecsS of alcohol are delu
sorry.
,. Intellectual super6ciality is not
only cause OF evil, it is its main
cause-a thing physically harmful to
the human body is morally wrong, but
the moral issue never arises in mind
possessed of lazy ideas.
The Life Setting
While our government is urging
the conservation OF grains, pcats and
other foods it is well to cons der bev-
erage alcohol as needless waste OF
grain.
All pupils from the fifth grade up
ward should have clear ideas on the
effects oil alcohol, the limit being put
at the fifth grade, because from this
grade large numbers of pupils leave
school, For this reason the minimum
essentials should cover the following:
|. Is alcohol food?
2. Is alcohol medicine?
3. Is beer Liquid bread?"
4. Is any whisky good whisky"
s. Effects of alcohol on vital organs.
6. Effects on human efficiency.
These topics are capable of indeh-
mite expansion and may be made to
include others, but our concern is to
put pupils in a position to combat the
doctrines of the streets-to give scien-
tihc temperance, at least, an even
chance with tradition.
Food Values
A food is a substance which when
taken into the body undergoes change
by the process of digestion giving
strength and heat. 1t makes blood
and builds tissue. Alcohol taken into
the stomach enters the circulation in
unchanged form and is eliminated
without change.
DIR. w. A. Hamilton says: ut is
not demonstrate that alcohol under
goes conversion into tissue"
Medical Effects Delusive
A stimulant creates no nerve power
it only enables the patient to use
up what is left.
DR.. William Hargreaves of Phila-
delphia on this point says: "Alcohol
instead of sustaining life or vitality
must cause direct waste or expendi-
ture of vital force"
The essential difference between a
stimulant and narcotic may be seen
in the following statement from DIR.
August Forel of Switzerland:
"All alcoholic liquors are poisons,
and especially brain poisons, and
their use shorten life. They cannot,
therefore, be regarded as sources Oh
nourishment or force. They should
be resisted as much as opium, NOR
phia, cocaine, and the like"
The Reaction That of Narcotic
The "so-called" stimulating effect
of alcohol is explained in the follow
ing statement of DR.. w. +. Peckham
of Detroit:
"Whcn alcohol or any other irri-
tant poison is put into the system
the conservative vital force, recog-
nizing an enemy, at once makes an
effort to rid the system of the Of
fender-the heart increases in action
and new strength seems to appear.
Now right here is where the mass of
people and great numbers of physi-
clans are dcluded. They mistake the
extra effort OF the vital force to pre-
