Tho mother's concern was caused by recalling that her son often advised her when aha bad headaches to "snuff some of the white stuff the boys were using" and aha would be all right. Kcceut developments which led to the conviction of Solomon Miller, a South Portland druggist, for selling cocaine to boys, brought the subject to Mrs. Lampson'a attention.
