Ches- terton, author, told the Society for Preservation of Rural England yester- day on his return from the United States that he felt as he had “just returned from a different civilization— or_barbarism-—whatever you call it.” Prohibition, “ugly” uildings and ‘Tennessee's moral code im- pressed him strongest on his tour of Americs, he said, adding that New York was as terrifying to Americans as to forelgners, T've seen in Tennessee,” he said, ere if a man insults you, you are expected to shoot him with & gun or you're not considered a gentleman. Call it barbarism or chivalry, it's the feudal spirit full of feud. “From one end to the other of this magnificent civilization there is no such thing as a village. When you enter a little town it is simply an eyesore to anybody of European tradition or in- stincts. The first things met are yel- low, tin advertisement, tin buildings with frameworks of lead and glass and | tin shops and then, thank God, you are out of the town.” 1o Tefard to probibition, Mr. Chester- N id the law was threatening Amer- ica with disaster. “There are no inns in America,” he sald, “but there is plenty to drink— far, far too much. Alcoholism has never threatened disaster &s it is threat- ening America today. It isn’'t normal that girls of 16 should go to dances and drink raw alcohol.” For Location of Your Nearest Nation-Wide Store Phone Lincoln 0093 White House Toffee Ib. 39¢ A GLASS TODDY MIXER FOR 1c¢ With Each Purchase of a 13-Ib. can of TODDY = 22¢ MICHIGAN NAVY BEANS SUNSHINE Chocolla Puffs = 24c Powdered BON AMI s SO CAMPS SARDINES 15¢ Jar 10¢c 10c Ige. can Long Horn Strictly Fresh Eggs 3~ 19¢ OLD DUTCH CLEANSER 2-x15C 11c can VAN CAMP’S SARDINES large oval tin 9c WALDORF TOILET TISSUE 4 rolls l9c ™. z 3c « 29¢ MEATS LOFFLER’S Roast of Pork Prime Rib Roast Chuck Roast Smoked Royal Pork Cooked Ham Fresh Hams Fresh Shoulders FOUNT SIld.
