Have coffee ready when the bar is closed, ïîot because it would sober anyone Uip but because it would hiold the guests a littie longer. Time is the ,)iily factor on getting rid of alcohiol. 4. If a guest drinks too mnuch, arrange for somneone els2 to drive hlmii ujorne, or cali a cab. It was a wise plan..and it worked. The Jones' family party was 'a success .. .everyone who attended talked about it for weeks. The Ontario Safety League asks that you follow the Jones plan': First a Friend, then a Host.
