YOUTH AND DRINK.
Speaking at Holywell, Alderman il. R. Thomas, chairman of the Flintshire Higher Education Committee, said that his experience as a magistrate had convinced him that drink held a threat to young life. On official \isits to public houses he had been horrified by the spectacle of young men and women not yet in their twenties consuming alcohol freely and unashamed. He saw a marked increase in drinking among juveniles, adolescents and women. Alderman Thomas expressed the opinion that there should be a complete revision in methods of teaching temperance.
