THE FORWARD LOOK

Not Fastening to, nor turning

Not mourning for the things that

From what the future wells; but
with a whole
And happy heart, that pays its

With cheer.

Because the roads last turn will
be the best Selected.

BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS

Wherever the boys and girls club

As the best men do not always get
elected, SO also is 1t true that some
OF the men rejected for military serv-
ice seem to us would make as good or
better soldiers than some of those
who were retained. 1t is hard to see
how a pound or two over or under
weight can very seriously affect a
mans shooting capacity. However,
Uncle Sam does not consider his need
for soldiere urgent at this time, and
he considers that he can pick and
choose.

RESIDENCE OF Mr..
- WTLIIAE DEASE FIRMS

The residence of Mr.. William
Dease, which is situated on North
street near lake Parker, was burned
Saturday eveAing. The family who
had driven to Lakeland did not re-
turn to their home until the house
had been completely consumed. The
fire seems to have started from the
kitchen, though Mr.. Dease declares
they took especial care to see that
the fire in the stove was extinguished
before they left.
Owing to the fact that the house
was half-consumed before any alarm
was turned in to the fire department,
that efficient organization was un-
able to reach the scene in time to
save the building. The roads in that
direction were 30 bad that it was
impossible to make any speed with
the fire apparatus, and a large de-
preston In the route taken csnsed
a chain to break on the new truck.
This did not affect the work of the
crew, however, who used truck No.
1 in fighting the flames and only
took the big truck to use in case OF
an emergency. Mr.. George Nelson
who usually accompanies the depart
ment on their runs, ran into a stump
in the road, near North Vermont
avenue, and injured his car to the
extent OF about s25. There was
about $500 insurance on the place
and 5000 on the house, making a
total insurance of 5000.

Gladys Writes
To P. C.'S
Dear Mr.. Holcombe:

Dear Mr.. Holcombe:
Your suggestion that ! confine my
letters to you for a while pleases me,
but | am sure Jimmie Nesbit would
not like that. OF course ! realize
that you are lonesome and / know
what a terrible thing it is to be
lonesome because / have lived in

was going on somewhere else.
can give you some advice that
think will help you. Have you tried
drinking Chero-Cola? Get II reaA
cold, pour 1t in glass II you have
one handy, hold # to the light and
see the pure rich color of 1t. shut
your eyes and try to imagine how
good II is, then drink it slowly and
you find 1t is better than You mag
ined.
AS a companion FOR the lonely,
Chero-cola can hardly be excelled.
But, IL after this, you do not feel
cheered up and in the notion Of
living a while longer, you can get
your wife to come home. To do this,
you drink few bottles Of Chero-
Cola, then you write her a letter.
You will find that uneonsciously
you will make your letter too cheer
full, suspiciously happy even. Don't
tell her you have been taking Chero-
Cola she would understand then.
Just write down few Chero-Cola
thoughts and feelings, and let her
worry about why you are no longer
so sad and so lonely, until she de-
cides to come home and find out.
Sorry l can't write to you right
along, but hope you see how 1t is.
George Moore is jealous, too, you
know, and Jimmie is particular with
me.

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. -s.--Mis-
placed ambition. erotic literature and
sex motion pictures are three Of the
principal causes for divorce In this
country. In the opinion of Superior
Judge Thomas Graham. whose judi
cial position requires that he near
hundreds of divorce cases.
Judge Graham today ciicd the fa,,
that there are now IN the United
States i76.i56 divorced men and
ia5.2oi divorced women.
Misplaced ambition is one cause
ol this he remarked The desire
Ia overtike and live up Ia the style OF
stallmcnt plan success. II also an
swcrs the question Ms Ia why there Is
little money to meet bills when they
come In. II is one of our most pro-
life causes OF divorce.
Then there IL our erotic literature
and our sex motion pictures, which
give men and women IDEAS on So
called sex problems. These aid ma
tcrially In the formation OF an Idea
that divorce Is all sight. Then the
loose moral training In many homes
is To be considered. Children grow
up with lax idea OF their responsi-

Question: Where Is This
Turk Tobacco Raised?

United States from Turkey has drop
ped in the last year to little over one
million pounds and there seems no
immediate prospect of getting more
soon. but little is coming in all the
time through the ports of Greece.
I'VE hope this shortage will not
mean rise in the prices of pure
Turkish cigarettes and personally, at
this time. Isdo not believe it will
mean an increased price, but no one
knows what the situation will be la
ter. The tobacco man hardest hit by
the shortage is the little manufac-
turer who buys in small lots from the
bigger fellows from time to time.
Their supply was cut Off very soon
after the war began and, as they can
not afford to pay the price of what
little Turkish tobacco Is imported,
they have either to boost their prices,
substitute cheap domestic tobacco,
or go out of business. Many of them
have failed and are failing every day
just for this reason Some of them
are using cheaper tobaccos.
There is nothing in the appear
ance of cigarette tobacco that would
show the layman that even twenty
per cent of his so-called pure Turkish
cigarette was domestic substitute,
but regular smoker OF Turkish cisa-
rettes could tell at the first Whit If,
even so much as two per cent Of his
cigarette is domestic leaf"
