there are now | 900 cadets training
in the aviation schools, and that these

for each flier There are also l3S, 900
enlisted men in the air service, though
only 10000 have been authorized.
Flying has attracted young Americans

THE BARBAROUS HUN.

Her quilted arnor tinRed with rust.
Her honor trampIed in the dust
Nor word, nor pen, no man may Trust.
While honest men despise her
He razetl Gods church with shot and shell.
Her priests and servants slew,
Went thro' the land like inps Of he'll
While nate and rsncor grew;
While butchered babes from mothers
riven,
And mothers cries went up 70 heaven.
The worse than death To them was gwen
Tho victim only knew
Canadian heroes crlicihed,
BY hated heartless verrnin;
They, like their Master, nobly died

The spirit Of brave Cavcll

HUGE AcREAGE Is USED.

About 10000 acres of our arabic
soil is devoted TO the raising of tobacco.
and thus is about one twentieth of all our
farm lands. On this area we raise about a
billion pounds of tobacco annually. of which
in normal times we export about FORTY
per cent But we also import normal
about 10000 600 pounds
4 good example of how habit DOM
mates the tobacco trade ia the fact that
England takes nearly all of the ire
cured tobaccos raised in the middle
south Of this country This tobacco is
smoked IN pipes and makes 8 strong and
singing smoke. None of it Is smoked in
this country, and an American would
find it unsmokeablc But back in colonial
times, when England had first call on all
the tobacco raised In her American colo
MES, Englshmen got used to the tre
cured tobaccos, and that habit has not
changed in three centuries
America is more self-sufficient Ia the
matter of tobacco than are most civl-
Ized countries All OF our domestic
c garettes are made from the bright
tobaccos Of Virginia and the Carolinas.
and the cheaper brands of so-called
Turkish cigarettes are made largely Of
these tobaccos with just touch Of

grown in Kentucky Burnley was originally
used US chewing tobacco only, but is
chewing went out Of fashion, American
manufacturers invented the popular
cut-plug pipe tobacco. The Burley was
found to be very smooth smoke, with
no bite or sting. 1t was somewhat lacking
IN aroma, but this lack was partly made
up by treating it with tonka bean and
other dressings" These Burley pipe
tobaccos are the greatest modern success in
tobacco manufacture. and the chief
rivals OF the bright tobccco, / hey are

IMPROVING

At meeting Of the City Board

to keep the ban on closing for at
least until Monday. Nov. rs.
We would be taking chances on
losing all we have gained through
the restrictive measures II we re-
scinded the closing order at this
time.
We hope the public will digidly
adhere to the restrictive measures.
and will carefully exercise every pos
sible personal precaution.
This does not mean that well PEG.
pie should not 60 out and do their
shopping. We believe that the dis.
ease has subsidized to the extent to
where It is perfectly safe to go into
the business district and shop. Rec
ommendation is however made by
the Board Of Health that the clerks
wear masks while waiting on custom
ers. and that customers wear masks
while inside stores.
The quarantine on families suf-
fering from influenza will continue
to be rigidly enforced. SO that infect.
cd or exposed persons will not be
found in the business district.
We see no reason why stores
should not now advertise sales II
they SO desire. provided the above
