He spelled it correctly. The teacher then asked him to explain what it meant. Without hestitation, the lad said, “When you take a shot without Ginger Ale or Soda.” The story may appear cute, at first thought. But, let’s give it a second thought. Authorities know alcoholism is a disease. Opinions dif fer on “what” it is. Some say an alcoholic is one who drinks a fifth of spirits a day. Others say anyone who drinks between 8 and 9 ounces a day is alcoholic. Along with wondering about the “what,” wouldn’t it seem equally important to think about the "why” .. "where" . and “when” the disease begins? Isn’t it likely the lad’s definition of straight gives us a clue? Isn’t it likely the disease can start at an early age through a wrong concept; through an acceptance of what children see in home and social patterns of conduct? Isn’t it likely the Bible gives us a further clue? “Thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy chil dren, and shall talk of them when thou sittest in thine house . . .”—(Deut. 6:6, 7) I am certainly no authority on alcoholism, one way or the other. This is just a thought I think is worth thinking about. ABERCROMBIE-PATTERSON FUNERAL HOME Forest Park, Ga. — 366-3522 reuter.
