AUTHOR’S POST-PRINT VERSION, SEPTEMBER 2019. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1086/705337 1 | P a g e “A good advertisement for teetotalers”: Polar explorers and debates over the health effects of alcohol, 1875–1904.1 Abstract: This paper examines discussions about drink and temperance on British polar expeditions around the turn of the twentieth century. In doing so, I highlight how expeditionary debates about drinking reflected broader shifts in social and medical attitudes towards alcohol. These changes meant that by the latter part of the nineteenth century, practices of expeditionary drinking could make or break the reputation of a polar explorer, particularly on an expedition that experienced an outbreak of scurvy. At the same time, I demonstrate the importance of travel and exploration in changing medical understandings of alcohol. I examine these issues through an analysis of two expeditions organized along naval lines—the British Arctic Expedition (1875–6) and the British National Antarctic Expedition (1901–4)—and, in doing so, demonstrate that studying 1 I would like to thank Dr James Kneale, Dr Innes M. Keighren, and Professor Klaus Dodds for their invaluable comments on drafts of this paper. An earlier version of this paper was also presented in a seminar at the Huntington Library, California, and benefited from the comments and suggestions of those who attended.

    Speech by MARGARET KEECH MEMBER FOR ALBERT Hansard 5 April 2001 FIRST SPEECH Ms KEECH (Albert—ALP) (2.30 p.m.): I am honoured to speak in this House for the first time as the member for Albert, the first woman ever to do so. In standing here today, I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which this House of the Queensland people stands. I also respectfully acknowledge the traditional owners and the present indigenous people who call the electorate of Albert home. The magnificent win by Peter Beattie's Labor team nearly seven weeks ago was not only a victory for the Australian Labor Party but also a celebration of strong leadership, unity and integrity. Labor's policy priorities of jobs, health and education are the very same priorities of the working families in my electorate. The people of Albert—and most of them are present in the public gallery today—recognised the fact that Labor has delivered in the area and as a result registered a two-party preferred vote to Labor of 63 per cent. This is even more historic when, for the first time in 114 years, Labor won every booth on primary votes. I say this to the people of Albert: thank you for the trust you have bestowed in me and the Beattie Labor government. I will repay your trust by working hard every day and every night and by giving you a strong voice in government. I place on record my thanks to Cameron Milner, who was my initial organiser but later went on to become the ALP State Secretary and director of the successful election campaign.

    Alcohol and the Workplace for Pdf.P65

    INTERNATIONAL CENTER FOR ALCOHOL POLICIES ICAP REPORTS 13 AUGUST 2003 ALCOHOL AND THE WORKPLACE The place of alcohol in society and the attitudes that surround it have changed considerably over the course of history. There are few examples in which this change is as apparent as in the relationship between alcohol and the workplace. Once quite commonplace in the work environment, alcohol has increasingly shifted into the domain of leisure. As the professional and skill levels required in a more complex workplace have grown, it has become apparent that the consumption of alcohol in certain venues may not be appropriate. The effects of alcohol on performance have been extensively documented.1 Under certain circumstances and for certain professions, the risks associated with drinking and the workplace may have serious consequences and potentially affect a large number of people beyond the drinker. This issue of ICAP Reports examines three industries in which beverage alcohol plays a special role, either because of its salience, or because of its potential impact. These three industries are the transportation industry, the beverage alcohol industry, and the hospitality industry. The report examines how the issue of alcohol and the workplace has been addressed in each and the approaches that have been used to ensure the safety both of employees and of others who may be affected. A SHORT HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE Throughout most of history, alcohol and the work environment were a ready mix. Baggage porters in 19th century London fortified themselves with stout beer in an effort to muster strength, and a morning glass of aguardiente helped the Spanish laborer brace himself for a day’s work.2 The “Rum Ration” was introduced T th by the Royal Navy in the 17 century, granting sailors a pint of rum a day, along with a gallon ration of beer, and a double ration of rum before battle.
