THE VOICE OF TEMPERANCE iDr, R. G. Bell, medical director of Shadowbrook Health Founda- tion, told an audience recently, "Many of the country's alcoholics need never have been addicted had they known the danger signals early In life." Our youth in Huron County and throughout Ontario will grow up knowing the danger sig- nals if advantage is taken of pres- "ent Department of Education regu- lations. For alcohol education is now an obligatory subject of study of Grades 10 and 11. The Depart- ment Is being urged to extend this teaching down into Grades Seven and Eight since many students nev- er reach Grade Nine. It goes with- out saying that in Churches end Sunday Schools, alcohol education phould be carried on continuously. A very' excellent Teacher's Manual for Alcohol Edueatioh has recently been produced by the Ontario De- psrtinent of Ede -cation.
