PHOG ALLEN LAWRENCE, KANSAS 10/23/37 DATE Harkness-Fort YOUTH STUDIES ALCOHOL Sent at #eqeeeriegt Suggestion of Mr. Neal M. Wherry. YOUTH STUDIES ALCOHOL HARKNESS and FORT BENJ.H.SANBORN & CO. Boys and girls demand to know the truth about Alcohol, its uses and abuses. The schools throughout the United States are seeking to discover a new and more effective method of approaching the alcohol question for younger people. It is to meet this need that this book was written. The authors set forth a capable presentation of a subject around which much controversy has raged. YOUTH STUDIES ALCOHOL has been pre- pared for use in the junior high school grades. It may be used as a supplementary reader in either science or social science classes, but preferably the latter. The authors have made the material interesting and at the same time scientifically accurate. The style is in- formal, mostly narrative, together with a conversational approach, which should help to catch the attention of the pupil and carry him through the study. BEN J. CHICAGO YOUTH STUDIES ALCOHOL KENNETH M. HARKNESS and LYMAN M. FORT A study of the effects of Alcohol for the seventh, eighth, or ninth grades CONTENTS . What Started It All? . What They Wanted to Know . Drinking and Driving . Befuddling the Pilot . Alcohol: A Stimulant or a Narcotic? . Getting Wise to the Ads . Horsepower and Horse Sense . What about Athletics? . Why Do People Drink? . Conclusions Dr. H. B. Bruner of Columbia University has written an appropriate foreword. There are helpful suggestions to teachers, a use- ful bibliography, simple experiments and thought- provoking questions, and suggestions for further dis- cussion and study. The book is profusely and attractively illustrated with original drawings by Kurt Welanetz. YOUTH STUDIES ALCOHOL tells the boys and girls what they want to know and ought to know, but more than mere understanding, fundamental as it is, is the right attitude which it inculcates. The boys and girls of today who read and discuss this book will make the world of tomorrow safer and happier, because of the attitude acquired today through the study of this book. SANBORN & CO.
