CITY OBSERVES FETE OF DWARFS Garions Custom Carried Out in Streets of Valencia, Spain | Madrid, June 17 (UP)—Valencia | the queen of eastern Spain, gayly celebrated the day of the dwarfs. At noon today the traditional cav- alcade announcing the Corpus Christi festivities tomorrow, defiled in the streets, its principal attraction being | «ix dancers masked with huge card- toard heads which make them look like dwarfs. These dwarfs, called “Nanos” in Valencia dialect, dance outside hous- us where live the municipal author- || ties. They are divided in three || couples, one European, the other || Gipsy, and the third negro, repre- senting the races of Shem, Ham and Japheth. With weird moorish tam- bourine and flageolet music, sup- ported by castanets, the dwarfs pre- pare three facing the other three, and start a series of passes, crossings, evolutions, in dif- ferent figures, the beginning and the nd of which are marked by cere- monious salutes, bending of the knee FORMS OF TOBACCO IGARS ClG 137 CIGARETTES i | SMOKING CHEWING o | SNUFF 35 numerous | | | | i | B \soZZZZZZ | . 2377777777/, By NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, JUNE 1’}, 1927, HISTORY OF TOBACCO INDUSTRY PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION OF TOBACCO IN UNITED STATES 1901 and 1924 CONSUMPTION IN POUNDS PER CAPITA 05 10 | I 77777777722 77222 //////// = | '°0 7 77 ”/ V501 ind sharp clacking of castanets, After a final circular step, the three couples get together on a single iine in front of > house where they sive their performance, and salute once more respectfully on behalf of ihe historical races thay represent.

Membership in the select sorority is reserved exclusively for maids who have come a cropper—and so is the club's popularity that the girls are finding new ways of fall- ing from their steeds in order to get in. Fifteen belong to the club, and they have drawn up a charter which they hope thelr royal namesake will sign. Their falls may not occur in stoeplechases as hazardous as his. | but the girls fall just as often and | ! just as hard. pute Organizer and past grand master | Pl% ¢ of the club is Ralph Raynor, riding | (0fals two Imaster at the women's college.

Gage points out that the deep . economic effect of changes in to- hacco habits is due to tHe fact that the response of the growing plant to soil and climate condi- tions is so certain that production of given types is highly localized. Districts that will produce cigar tobacco may not produce the kind used for cigarettes, and vice versa. When changing habit jilts a spe-! cific form of tobacco, the region with the type of plant that makes it suffers if the soil and climate vill not favor a more fortunate type. Growth of the cigarette habit, here and abroad, has brought the romance of prosperity to growers along the southeastern seaboard the industry is a tuneful It's but a narrative where 20% DISCOUNT A very good assortmen Crochet Hats in OTHER MODELS IN 55 95 W.
