Death
T My BONNIE E HQGARTH 'c

Joan had always been a goodi
.Ind healthy teenage girl until:
,she was offered a cigarette. This'
Cigarette contained a drug called
Marijuana and the cigarette :is
called a reefer,
The drug, at first, had very i
little effect ,on this young girl:
Taut finally after she had eon-
etantly taken the reefers she
needed heroin given to her,
through a vein with a needle as;
her body built up a tolerance
lend demanded it.
But this is not the beginning
of the tragedy that happens to;
Many people. It starts when
someone smuggles the dope from'
,either ,Lebanon or Communist
:China and contacts his American
"pusher" or dope peddler. The:
main drug that is smuggled is :
heroin which is the most habit
forming and comes from opium. I
The smuggler and the dope
peddler must do business be-
hind locked doors because the!
possession ssessio n of heroin is illegal i
€, n
.Canada or the United States.
Profits in dope are outstand-
1ng! The pusher can "cut." a dol-
lars worth of heroin with milk';
sugar, a cheap powder and sell;
it in small envelopes for more
.than twenty-five dollars. keel•- i
oin is also smuggled in capsule
and liquid form, Diluted fifty
till lnn111111111"111111 I1p1111111111,111111i11111/11111111111111
tickles it is still powerful .enough
to enslave the user, :and smug-
gling is almost impossible to
stop. One plan ,ean. conceal
enough pure Heroin an leis pusher
to supply hundreds of addicts,
The pusher knows that once
he traps a young victim like
Joan he'll keep her. Thrill seek-
ing teenagers are the most ex-
cellent prospects. Once he meets
his unfortunate victim he also
knows how quickly and power-
fully the drug works and drives
the person to a stronger drug.
All heroin addicts begin on the
drug marijuana, smoking it for
"Itieks" or because they could
not resist a dare,
When Joan took the many Ci-
garettes she was offered she be-
came drunk. The drug gave her
a smite of Hower .and well-being
that marijuana momentarily
gives and she thought she was
all she ever hoped to be. But
following this there was uneasi-
1ewith all ler
iand l
SS worry
hones sinking.
g
Each pusher has his own dis-
tribution centre. It may be a
hotel lobby or a local shop. At
one of these places he leaves
envelopes of heroin for the Bus-
tamers. Like Joan she may con-
tinue to- smoke reefers but her
desperate need is for herein
which she gets at the distribution
centre. Soon the drugs are .cast•
ing more than fifty dollars A.
day but still she must have the
dope. To ear» money to pay
!for the .d..pe becomes harder
and harder. Finally she sinks
into ,a nightmare world .af dope,
her character and personality
changed.
Since litany of the addicts are
. young and; not completely
trapped they. may find the
strength to fight back and point
out the dope peddler to the
police so they can track, down
the source of supply and so the
wrongdoers can be punished.
You will be safe if you do not
take any unknown substances in
any form. Never tike dares in
experimenting with unknown
substances. Do not begin the
habit by trying it out to see
what it is like.
Regard the warnings as you
would danger signs placed .along
the highway for your safety and
happiness. We a s
houed alwaysre-
member
mber "Be safe to -day and en-
joy to -morrow."
