Discovering Why People Drink
Beverage Alcohol.
Lesson for March 8: Genesis 43:
34; Psalm 104; 14, 15; Proverbs 31:
4-7; Ecclesiastes 2: 1-3, 10, 11;
Isaiah 56:12; I Corinthians 10: 6,
7.
Golden Text: Proverbs 20: 1.
We may wonder why men ever
drink except to satisfy the craving
of depraved appetite and we may
ask why such a propaganda for al
coholic beverages should be con
tinued now when the defenders of
our nation and of our democracy
certainly need clear heads and
steady hands. The present lesson
undertakes to discover why people
drink beverage alcohol. i
There is first a desire to make !
merry, as shown in Genesis. They
who would make life one contin- !
ual round of pleasure may think
that drink is essential. In Psalms'
we read of the wine ‘that maketh
glad the heart of man,” but in
Proverbs we find the advice of
King Lemuel that it is not for
kings and princes to drink wine
lest they forget the law and per- i
vert justice. So there are great
things forgotten when a man
drinks to forget his poverty and
misery, as shown in Proverbs. To
drink to forget is like taking an
opiate to ease pain; the cause is
not affected and when the drug,
wears off the pain returns—often
with a greater pang. The man:
who drinks to forget his poverty I
only adds to his poverty.
The man of whom we read in
Ecclesiastes who “seached in his
heart how to cheer” his “flesh
with wine” came to disillusion
ment and vanity in the end. Paul
likens lusting after evil things
unto idolatry.
The desire to make merry, to
forget misery, to enjoy beautiful
illusions all lead to disappoint
ment and sorrow at last. And we
may fittingly conclude that the
reasons for abstinence and
sobriety outweight all the reasons
that impel men to indulge the ap
petite for strong drink.

Demonstrators Prove
Profit in Woodlands
Vegetable Varieties
For South Carolina
Clemson, Feb. 28.—Proof of the
value of woodlands in adding to
the farm income is definitely con
tained in the net return of $13,-
280 from 3,363 acres of timber re
ported by 20 woodland manage
ment demonstrators for 1941,
says M. H. Bruner, forester of
the Clemson Extension Service.
“With increased demands for
farm timber, stimulated by the
war, most of the demonstrators
made profitable timber sales,”
Bruner declares, “while at the
same time they left a good stand
of trees from which another cut
ting can be made within the next
few years.”
Following the advice and with
the assistance of county agents
and the Clemson extension forest
ers in cooperation with the State
Forest Service and the Soil Con
servation Service these demon
strators during the year employ
ed the following simple timber
management practices:
1. Kept out fire.
2. Thinned the smaller, crowd
ed stands for fuelwood, pulpwood,
and tobaccowood.
3. Marked and cut the older tim
ber on a tree-selection basis, leav-
ing*the thrifty, promising trees for
future harvests.
The 20 demonstrators, having
an average of 168 acres in wood
lands, reported an average net
Charleston, Feb. 28.—It is al
ways a temptation for gardeners
and commercial growers to plant
some of the many new varieties
and strains of vegetables which
are offered each year instead ©f
the old standard varieties, says J.
M. Jenkins, Jr., of the South Caro
lina Truck Experiment station.
“But the practical ’h ng to <io’\.
the horticulturist warns, “especi
ally this year when food-for-free-
dom production must be assured,
is to use only standard varieties
and make small test plantings or
the new things which seem to be
interesting.”
As to the varieties for South
Carolina conditions, Mr. JenkLi?
reminds growers that many vari
eties which have proven to be out
standing in other places may
grow so well in this state, as they
were bred for different conditions.
He advises selections of varieties
which from actual tests in South
Carolina, have proven to be adapt
ed to conditions in the state, and
he gives in the following tabl-?
the standard varieties as well a»
some of the newer ones which ar?
recommended for planting especi
ally in coastal South Carolina.
