jewelry. IS for soft drinks and 80 cents for
furs.
The s5OOoo,ooO a year we spend for chewing
gum is two and half times the total expenditures
for normal schools and almost exactly the same as
all state and city appropriations for higher educa-
ton.
The Z. s. commissioner of education points out
that if would smoke cigarets instead
