Drug Addiction,
Disease, Not A
Crime, Says Dr.
DniiTaddiction is not in itself
a crime but a disease, declared Dr.
Geo. W. Cox, State Health Officer.
It is viciously and deadly in that
since the victim can no longer
overcome his desire for drugs, he
will resort to any illegality to ob-
tain money to purchase the satis-
faction of his craving. Increase in
idrug addiction is paralleled by
crime increases.
Because of the increase 'of ad-
diction among "teen-agers," par-
ents would do well to understand
¿he habits of their offspring. No
matter what the age, an addict
stakes on a sly, underhanded at-
tempt to concealment. And it is
only when the "teenage" victim
becomes embroiled in some police
envolvement that the shame is
brought to the parent.
Boys and girls must be taught
that it is not smart or sophisti-
cated to use drugs or their nar-
cotic forms, and they should
understand the dangers involved.
Once the habit is formed, it is
difficult to overcome. While it is
estimated that at least five per
cent of narcotic addicts become
so by means of repeated dosages of
drugs to alleviate pain, the pre-
ponderance of addicts fall among
those persons, normal in every
respect, who seek adventure, and
emotionally unstable persons who
cannot face the realities of every
day life.
Indications of drug addiction
vary according to the method and
the typo of drug used. Among
them are a strained expression, ^
glassy stare of the eyes, trembling
hands, swelling or redness in the
partition of the nostrils; apparent
puncture marks on the skin from
hypodermic needles. Symptoms
include running of the nose or
earing of the eyes; excessive
yawning and sneezing, constant
itching of the skin of the arms and
legs and dialation of the pupils
of the eyes.
While it has been said that a
"little knowledge is a dangerous
thing," there can be no doubt that
p public-mind consciousness of the
drug-addiction problems will do
more to curb the situation. The
prevention of addiction is a com-
munity problem. Once the habit
is formed, it becomes a medical
one. Do your part to prevent an
addiction. Your child may be the
next victim.
A starfish 'will grow another
point if one is ctic off.

the Texas State Parks.
