SAY AMERICANS
SHOULD BE NATURAL

ShOULD NJ NATURAL
The comments show that, far
from implying any disrespect for
Americas distinguished royal WIS.,
itors. these verdicts merely mean
that a majority of Americans be-
lieve the king and queen should
be greeted in the manner most
natural" to this country.
The most common expressions
Of this feeling are "a that Ameri-
cans should follow American Gus
toms In this country. although 1t
might be correct to do otherwise
II they were in England; t2) that
shaking hands shows more friend
liness, and t3) that the king and
queen probably expect to he
greeted as II they were Amcri-
cans"
Others remark that most
Americans would make sorry
curtsies and bows anyhow.
On the other side of the argu-
ment, the prevailing comments are
that bowling and curtsying are
due their position" and that every
thing should be done to make the
king and queen feel at ease.
When all is said, however. the
curtsy problem will still have "a
be solved by the Americans who
actually get the invitations.

PUT QUESTIONS
TO AMERICANS

These verdicts are Indicated to-
day in a nationwide survey con-
Quoted by the American Institute
of Public Opinion. In q novel test
Of the way Americans prefer TO
greet royalty. the institute put the
following questions to represen-
tative cross section OF men and
women in all parts OF the country.
"When Americans are pre-
scented 10 the king and queen
Of England on their visit 10
this country. do you think
American women should curt
~ or shake hands? ?"
Shaking hands wins by q vote
Of almost four to one, and in a
similar question which asked
whether American men should
bow or shake hands the vote Ia
equally large.
The actual percentages are:
Women should curtsy 11ee
Women should shake
nahus NO
Men should bow. .......2 ies
Men should shake hands. 1871

AN INTERESTING and rather
disturbing book, written by Robert
7. Walton, professor Of pharma-
cology in the School of Medicine at
the University of Mississippi, is
called "Mdrihuana-AnsericG's Ne1O
Drug Problem".
The author says that fathers and
mothers, members Of boards of edu-
cation, high school teachers, wom-
ems clubs, welfare officers, police Of
llcers, physicians and nurses, Y. M.
7. AS and Y. w. G. AS should all
be interested in this subject, and I
agree with him.
Marihuana is a narcotic, habit
forming drug, the use of which has
grown rapidly in the United States
IN the last five years. Ten years ago
It was little used here except in
Texas and other parts of the south
west, usually by Mexicans. Within
the last year 81 states have reported
seizures Of a varying quantity of the
drug and destruction of areas Of
the growing plants.
Grows Wild in u. s.
Marihuana, or hemp plant, has
the same effect as the Indian drug,
hashish. The disturbing thing is
That it grows wild in most parts of
the United States, a fact which is
Known to the habitues Of the drug.
Police and narcotic officers have

seized supplies Of the drug and de-
SLroyed many acres of the growing
plants in Louisiana, Indiana, Penn
sylvania, Illinois, Missouri and
otner states. This shows how wide
spread the distribution of the plant
: and the easy opportunity Of ac-
cess to it.

Dr. CIendening Warns Parents and Teachers to Be on
Their Guard Against Spread Of Narcotic

100 peddlers were said to have been
selling marihuana cigarettes to
school, children in Detroit and that
school children in st. Louis, New
York, New Jersey and Ohio have
bought these cigarettes from ped
dlers, the seriousness of the situa-
tion may be realized. In December,
1887, 20-year-old girl held up and
killed bus driver. Her husband
testified that he had previously sup
piled her with marihuana cigarettes
purchased on a main street Of his
city.
Effects of Drug
The effects of the drug are to pro-
duce, first, a state of excitement and
then q pleasant, dreamy lethargy.
1t has particular effects upon the
sense organs of smell and hearing.
Lovely and enticing odors and beau
tiful orchestral sounds are expert
enced. There is peculiar stretch
ing out of the sense of time. One

his family sent for a doctor. He
was seated in the window of his liv-
ing room and he saw the doctor get
out of his car at the corner. He said
that it seemed several centuries be-
fore the doctor arrived at the house.
Dreams and hallucinations usu-
ally terminate the first effects Of the
drug, but violent excitement, result
ing in acts of violence and behavior
disorders, may also follow.
Teachers and parents should be
apprised Of the situation and be on
their guard.
