ID EFORE the noole experiment terminated there
I'D was little if any opportunity of really knowing
The difference between good liquor and bad liquor
when served in secrecy in all sorts of speakeases,
taverns and night clubs.
Then came the end Of prohibition and the picture
in relation to the consumption Of alcohol developed
some significant changes.
At the large Cook County Hospital in Chicago an
investigator said that the following important
changes have taken place in relation to alcoholic
poisoning now, compared with what it used to be:
The poison takes effect more rapidly; the pa
tent brought to the hospital because Of the
gravity Of his symptoms; smaller amount OF bev-
erage required to ncapac tate the patient; effects
more involved and often fatal, sometimes mental
deterioration occurs even after a lew SpreeS.
EVERYBODY knows that it is exceedingly difficult
L even now to determine whether alcoholic liquors
are really what they pWport to be There has been
cutting taking of labels and more recently, it is
reported, some taxing Of government tax stamps.
Moreover liquor served over bar or in glasses
may be pure moonshine. synthetic hootch' and bot
ties may be refilled with material bearing no re-
semblance to what them originally.
One specialist has found that, out Of 100 samples
Of illicit liquor, six contained small amounts Of
methyl alcohol, which is deadly poison. Lead and
copper also found to extent in illegal liquor
The illegal product may be merely cut with water;
it may be a synthetic mixture of grain alcohol
water caramel color and favoring matter, or may
be added alcohol obtained by dlstilng denatured
alcohol.
THE nervous system may be exceedingly sensitive
i to oyerdoses Of ordinary alcohol. For the person
who has suddenly become seriously sick from over
doses of alcohol treatment is quite possible with

This is one Ill which White

For weeks, mill after mill has
been closing in New England. The
epidemic is now spreading through

that raw cotton will slump IN

wholesalers to hold back their

mills to close their doors.

soul-stiaing situation.
Joan had conference with her mother
That lady decided that before Joan could
venture into New York, the goal of her plans,
she must work for while and accumulate
small nest-egg for her safety and railroad fare.
The veriest stranger would have agreed
with the mother. However, Joan had already
been working early and late. Evidently nest
eggs, then as now, were hard to obtain by the
children of the poor.
From child of all work in convent, school
and college restaurant, she went Immediately
to Kansas City and became stock girl in
department store. Her salary was about $40
week. She lived in one ROOM The store gave
discounts for purchases made by employees.
1t was slight advantage to Joan and helped
her more quickly to accumulate small ward
robe. She was now fifteen years old, and ap-
peared few years older.
A girl in the store had tried theatrical
career. She was now selling hosiery in an
effort to recuperate from the mad effort of
becoming another Bernhardt All that she
remembered of her one-time ambition was
the name of theatrical agent. She gave it to
Joan. In the best regalia that one can procure
at $40 week, even at discount, the daring
and graceful girl went to his office.

poverty and hope deferred was still for Joan.
Her first revolt came. She decided to run
away and begin life anew somewhere.
At the depot the young girl met the dean
of the school. That official told her that VIC

EOAN CRAWFORD S romance with FranchOt
Tone has recently been the delight and
despair of newspaper readers, according
to the viewpoint. 1t has exceeded in
exuberance even her now almost forgotten
romance with Douglas Fairbanks. Jr.
Joan's real name is Lucille lie Sueur. AS
such she was first known in Hollywood.
She was born in Texas, and early moved to
Oklahoma, where her father was manager of
a small chain of theaters. She there met
wandering players who imbued her with love
for the stage. At four or five she wanted to
become dancer
In the rear of her home was an old barn
where theater scenery was stored. Here the
little girl later to be known as Joan Crawford
would practice dancing with other youngsters.
One day, while running barefooted from the
barn, she stepped on a piece of jagged glass,
which came near injuring her permanently.
The doctors operated on her foot three
times and told the child to put away her
dreams of dancing. Undaunted, the child
determined not to give up. (She eventually
became dancer, and, years later, while in
Dancing Lady" she crumpled to the floor
in pain from the childhood injury She was
on the set again in an hour. This gives some
indication Of Joans courage in overcoming
obstacles)
Her mother, by this time divorced moved
to Kansas City. Joan was placed in a convent
while the mother became a SaleSwoman in a
large department store The Mother Superior
had agreed to keep Joan in return for the
young girls help in the dining room and
kitchen Joans mother visited her each
Sunday.
To Joans credit, she has no false pride
concerning these early years in which she was
little more than household drudge - wait
ing for the Prince Charming who had not
then started his journey toward her.
Joan was next placed in a private school.
Here the girlsh and woe-begone Oliver Twist,
while still child herself, took care of other
children in return for what education she
could obtain.
joan talks little of these years, the steel
of suffering cutting too deeply into her soul
and forever keeping her inarticulate
One evening the work-weary girl, with an
army of freckles marching across her nose,
happened to look in the mirror fastened to
the wall of her attic bedroom Her eyes, film
lovers will remember are not the least of her
charms. Joan gazed at herself, and for the
first time dreamed of Hollywood.
Too young for such journey except in
dreams, the girl discussed the possibilities
with her mother.
