Deuteronomy 11:18 21; Proverbs 23:20. 21; i Corinthian* s:? ll. GOLDEN TEXT?Know y* not that the un. righteous shall not Inherit the kingdom di qq61-1 Corinthian* 8:8. Billions of dollars?how many we cannot say?make up the annual cost af liquor to America in dollars and cents. Terrifying as it is, that stupendous waste is but a tirop in the bucket compared with the moral and ipiritual degradation, the sorrow and luflering, the poverty and distress, yhich must be added into our liquor bill. For it is not only a matter of dollars, but of blood and tears, or dertroyed usefulness, lost ^virtue, wrecked homes, and so on and on ind on. We go right on paying the bill, allowing ourselves to be misled by Clever propaganda, and skillfully manipulated statistics?or it may be jur sheer indifference. When will America awaken! Our lesson faces us with the cost ?f this despicable traffic in the life jf the individual to the social order, ind in the light of eternity,. I, The Personal Cost (Deut. 21: 18-21). Liquor destroys individuals relentlessly, rapidly, and effectively. Have re forgotten that factT The passage in Deuteronomy prelents a drastic remedy for a dreadful situation. Drink and gluttony rere recognized as the deadly initrument which would bring a boy b the place where he was incorrigible. Stubborn, rebellious, and lisobedient, his parents were to (ring him to the elders for a final udgment. If one thinks the penalty too harsh, ie must remember that it was estabIshed in the early days of Israel iben it was necessary for God to ise such drastic remedies to stamp K\ incipient evil. It must be remembered that in indent Greece weak children were kft out to die, and in Rome a father could at will put to death even a frown up son. The point of this scripture for us Is that a life of debauchery (and it can start with just a glass of wine) leads to the ultimate destruction of Die. It is far too high a cost to pay Bt a sinf ul indulgence. H. The Social Cost (Prov. 23: 10, IV). Drunkenness and gluttony lead to loverty and rags.. The intemperate nan cannot keep' up with the high lost of supplying his growing appeite. Even as he tries to satisfy its nsatiable demand, it also renders lim unfit to earn a living. So the vicious circle works its ay around, and stops not until the runkard totters off in his rags, uniss perchance some loved one . or lend takes care of him. Do we not all recall how families i our own communities have been Jined and become charges upon the Dunty or charitable organizations ecause of the destruction wrought y a father who was a winebibber. Not only does it bring poverty pon families, but it reduces able gifted men to shambling wrecks nd thus deprives society of the inefit of their lives and service. A present-day illustration is the Solved problem of absenteeism for ays after pay day in our essential, idustries. Again we say the cost altogether too high; let us get rid 'this monster before it destroys us! The Eternal Cost (I Cor. 6: 11). Money lost is serious. Life lost is ' more serious. But the saddest *t of all is the eternal damnation ike drinker's soul. We quote from Dr. Horace Martin stirring and meaningful words: 8 is my calm judgment that ally who names the name 'of Christ take an attitude of horror and *fu*t at the liquor traffic and the * of liquor as a beverage. There * at least three places in the Near ' lament where the Bible aaya that 1 drunkard shall inherit the king* ? of God. any man takes that statement hously he must think twice beI A LAXATIVE aieded H Cl?urelf ANNOUNCEMENTS Betheeda Presbyterian Church Sumluy.

To Prevent and Control Malaria First, we must know the malaria mosquito, the female Anopheles, Quadrlmaculatus or the "Quad," as she Is commonly calledi The female "Quad" choses warm, quiet waters to lay her eggs from which new generations of mosquitoes will arise to carry malaria. These queer little things grouped together in regular patterns are really eggs of the malaria mosquito. In warm weather it takes only a few days for these eggs to hatch into wigglers. It is said that one female mosquito lays 150 eggs In each batch and that she lays several batches every summer. We can see why it is so important not to have,, water around in which -these eggs may be laid. The mosquitoes develop through four stages?eggs, alrvae, pupae and adults. Anopheles lays her eggs on the surface of the water, the eggs float for several days and then hatch into larvae for "wlggler talis." In about a week's time, the larvae turn into pupae, or "tumblers." In another 48 to 72 hours, these become''adult mosquitoes. You can tell what kind of mosquito eggs by the way they lio on the water. The Anopheles lie at the top of the water and parallel to It. Larvae of other mosquitoes hang from the top, head downward. These latter will dive if they are touched. The Anopheles larvae sometimes dive but generally "scoot" backwards along the top of the water. The Anopheles mosquito always lays her eggs on water, she chooses quiet, fresh water, such as ponds and pools. They prefer water with plants attae, leaves or other flotage fore he refers to the us* ci liquor in a joking manner, or in any way condones the use of alcohol as a beverage" (Lesson Commentary). Drunkenness is a foul and sinful thing, classed by the apostle Paul with the lowest of human vices. Review the list as it is given in verses 9 and 10 (and by the way notice the other sins mentioned there), and place drunkenness in its proper classification. Call it what it really is?sin, and then call on the One who can save from sin. You then be washed from your sin, sanctified, and justified in the name of the Lord Jesus (v. 11). In Christ there is hope for the drunkard." A spiritual revival is the real answer to the liquor problem. Let us seek to promote it even as we at the same time give ourselves to an intelligent and constructive battle against this destructivs force in t)ie liffe of our nation. ^ - - UK" ? . ... a Help Them Cleanse the Blood of Harmful Body Waste Your kidneys ut? matter from tn?
