Following the theme hymn. and the Lord's Prayen, the president Mrs. Neta Hoiland read a poem "A Daily Prayer", after whlch she extended a wel- corne to ail with a special welcome to the guest speaker, Sergeant Wm. Bowes of the Lindsay Police. In bis address, Sergeant Bowes spoke on Drugs and problems arising from their use. The use of drugs is rlsing. H1e advised par- ents not to panic when they know their chlldren are using them - (and they are being used by cIlidren, as even in Grades 5 and 6 they have been fourd). Talk to your chid, give honest answers but do flot condemn. Keep the communications open. Many drugs have been used for medicinal pur- poses. There are the tran- quilizers, the narcotics and d t he hallucigents. Those addictedare found in ail classes of socety- rich or affluent as weii as poor and middle class. Parents wiil notice a sud- den change In behavioun. The addict wiil skip class- es bis grades wiil drop, ho wili sit and stare Into space, bis grooming wil be neglected and he wil remain away from home. Many M~II have periods of giggiing, sometimes they are taîkative and insolent. The use of marijuana is controversial but In Can- ada it is stili considered a narcotlc. It has been prov- ed that the users of this drug gradualiy are hooked by the "hard core" one., 4uch as heroin and LSD., These arc the "hard core" pushers. T h ese addicts need professional assist- ance. They imagine they can do anything - stop trains - walk tresties. On a bad trip their actions are unpredictable. They are disturbed, may have brain dam age and revoit against convention. Their speech is slurred., eyes dilated, have short, tem- pers and poor balance. An overdose may resuit in death. Speed Is the most dangerous - pupila are en- langed he loses control of himseÏf, body signais are destroyed. The cost per day Is fantastic. Most girls became prostitutes to ob- tain enough money to sup-, piy their needs. Some take five doses per day. Drugs are found in candy cigar- ettes, and are taken by xîeedle. After taking the "'hard cone" drugs the life expectancy is from three, to five years. Aicohol is also a drug and continues. to be a major problem. The president, thanked Sergeant Bowes for his enlightening and "timeiy" taik, alter which Mrs. George Bowers' unit serv- ed lunch. For the business period Mrs. Wilfred Vine read the minutes of the October meeting and finances. were reported. It was decided to withdraw the regular De- cember meeting and meet with the Sunday School for thein Christmas 13ro- Section' gram. Following the Miz- pah Benediction the meet- ing adjourned.
