DISCUSS EVIL OF MARIHUANA
Last Sunday evening the young
people of the Presbyterian church
had a very interesting as well as
( -durational meeting. The topic un
der discussion was man's worst
enemy, marihuana, that terrible nar
eotir il.at comes from a harmless
looking weed commonly known as
Ann ric an hemp.
The marihuana weed has from
live to eiuht loaves in a group, the
veins of the leaf are very prominent
and the leaves have a very peculiar
odor.
The diFV.ssio'.i covered the ter
rible effects that this narcotic has
on man. Different true stories were
cited which told of the many harm
ful effects which marihuana can
produce, such as murder. You cannot
tell what a person under the in
Mupuce of this dread narcotic will do.
Marihuana has been distributed
to many school children in the form
f cigarettes. These peddlers get
the students to using it and then
l hey can't iuit so beware of such
men and of cigarettes that aren't a
well known brand.
Marihuana grows wild and has
been found in the yards of many
bonus in Plattsmouth. Let's ail help
to do our part toward stamping out
marihuana in Plattsmouth by pull
ing all of there weeds that are in
cur yards.
