Sher- hy is definitely an alcoholic beverage. It is made from the fermentation of white grapes. After pressing, the grapes are "plastered", i.e. sprinkled with gypsum to aid fermentation. After this pro- ess, reducing the sugar con- tent down to eight or 10 de- grees, alcohol, often in the form of brandy, is added to bring the wine up to 18 or 20 degrees of alcoholic content. Indeed, even natural sherry is no weak sister in the family of sweet wines. Herewith com- parative strength contained in several kinds of sweet wine: Claret 10.5, Champagne 11.0, Sherry (natural) 16, (fortified) 20, Port (natural) 16, (forti- fied) 22. You CAN get drunk on Sherry. Not many do per- haps, for it is served in small doses. But it is ideal as a "first drink wine for youth. It is one of the "innocent" home cocktail drinks.—(Advt.). sul±$ect of the &fie laitn-and bltc Reraape toer, "We have every 1 .10,400lf tO the future with o srn," :he said.
