Though such reports are not always correct, the number of them specifically mentioning chain-smoking are in the ma- jority, and the conclusions are correct. In one report, Dr. Alton Ochsner, chairman of the Department of Surgery, Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans, stated that members of the medical profession are currently greatly concerned about the possibility that the male population of the United States will be decimated by cancer if cigaret smoking continues to increase as it has in recent years. Dr. Ochner’s report concluded that some substance in tobacco tars was responsible for the correlation’ be- tween cancer and chain-smoking. * The major cigaret manufacturing companies are concerned by these reports, Stock shares of the ma- jor concerns have dipped ominously in recent days, as a direct result of this news. Some cigaret company stocks fell as much as three to four points in a single day on the New York market. The intelligent smoker has and will exercise some, restraint until the full story of the correlation of various diseases and heavy smoking is revealed, even though this may require a number of years, In the meantime, a good thing for the cigaret com- Panies to do is to take some of their profits realized and convert them into intensive research, with the hopa of finding a eure to this dread disease. It would indeed be appropriate if the cigaret companies financed the effort whigh found an answer to this blight. ra The girls in bathing suits look especially good about how. 2 You Gannot expect success if it depends upon the failure of others, : ” You can still help your country by buying war bonds, and yourself, too. ~ —_— Tt is easy to get support for almost any cause until the times comes to give the cash. — Crossword Puzzle ACROSS 30.

Many of the judge’s out-of-town friends have enjoyed reading a letter describing his trip. The Citizen is printing an. in- stallment of the letter daily dur- ing this week. This is the fourth installment. On Monday, June 8, we took a ing along thé lake shore to Lake ‘Hagen, then went to see the Lion monument, old wooden bridges centuries, the old town hall, old Church and many of the pictures- que and narrow streets.

Then we went for a ride to Santa Domin- ico and Fiesole to see Florence and the Arno Valley from the top of the hill where the original city of Flor-| ence was built hundreds of years ago. Leaning Tower of Pisa We left Florence in the morn- ing by bus arriving at Pisa’ at 11:00 o’clock where we saw the leaning Tower of Pisa, the Cathe-| dral- dnd Baptistry. They were very beautiful and the paintings inside of the cathedral were out- standing. The Cathedral is in the form of a cross and has certain Moorish influence in its architec- ture especially the little balconies. The Baptistry is also very pretty jand the acoustics are so good that lwhen a person speaks his voice echoes as though a* group were speaking.

Swiss Government The Swiss Government is pat- terned much like ours except that the individual cantons have much more power than our states. If you were to ask a Swiss who was the President of Switzerland, it would be very hard for him to answer. As a matter of fact, very few of them know who the president is. ‘The executive branch of the Gov- ernment is composed of a council consisting of a cabinet of seven men who are really the seven presidents, Actually no one person governs the country although these men choose one of their number as the Particular head or President.

And Car) had ssid, not really easantly, but a trifle fret- fully: “I wish you were more of a reader, honey. It would help to fill your e when I have work that must done.” She knew that he was gather- ing material for a book that he wanted to do later on. She knew that he couldn’t be expected to spend all of his spare time amus- ing her. And she doubted if he thought an adult person needed to be amused. Why did he marry me? She asked herself suddenly. After all, someone who was more of a mental companion . . . She remembered that day, long Sp. when he had said teasingly: ‘be I'm marrying you for your money, sweetheart.” Her mind fell back, bitterly, on one of Aunt Mae’s platitudes: There’s many a true word spoken in jest. HE decided to drive out-to see Tess Haley. Tess and she had gone to ing school together, and they had been married with- in a year of each other. But Tess’s marriage hadn't turned out so well. It was one of those sud- den war marriages which never should have happened. Tess had gone, out to Reno seven months Previously.

If this lettér is eligible to be print- ed in The Citizen, please do so, I am bothered with a nosy neighbor, who seems to think my husband and I “beat our child unmercifully.” I think if he had been wise, he’d have taken the time to find out why our baby was crying instbad of yelling over his back fence (standing behind a tree) for us to stop or he’d call the law. The trouble was she had.just emptied a whole can of baby powder on herself and the bedroom floor, then right after that, was playing in a brand new pair of my shoes, then she wanted to play in a coup of hog coffee. One thing right after another. We haven't once laid a hand on her other than to take these harmful things away from her—things she had no business plays ing with. She didn’t like this and began crying to have her way. js Perhaps my neighbor wishes me to let my child get away with small things, and these small things get large er until I have made another juvenile delinquent. No, thanks! There’s too many in this world already, and I love my children too much to see this happen. Another thing that, no doubt, upset my “friend” was the fact that my little girl doesn’t want to be trained to the chair, and objects very loudly each time she has to use it, May I remind my neighbor that false accusation is a civil offense? If each parent is going to have threats such as I had for raising a child right, then no wonder people give up and let their children grow up wrong. ~ Each and everyone of you have a cordial invitation to visit my home, and see for yourself how “unmereifule ly” I “beat” my baby who hasn’t even reached two years of age. : | he bask i 2 gag de 3 i bs) 3 t L i fF v t d 5 ii i { i 3 rf i i f i | i B t cS i 4 Pri ng =f sf ‘e ive i Ba fe A Le 4 8 » be otherwise.
