TOBACCO AND OBLIGATION

Americans are quite given to boasting of their
large expenditures for public education.
From the point of view of relatively the
Boosting doesn't square with the facts.
We spend something less than 81 200, 900 900
year on public education.
In 1920 our tobacco bill was more than dou-
BILE this and for face powder, cosmetics, per-
fumes, ETC., we spent three-quarter of bill
lion.
For every dollar we spend on public educa-
ton, we spend 25 cents for ice cream. SO cents
for jewelry, 35 cents for soft drinks and 80
cents for furs.
The $50,000,000 year we spend for chew
ing gum is two and half times the total ex-
penditures for normal schools and almost ex-
actly the same as all state and city appropria-
tons for higher education
The y. S. Commissioner of Education points
out that if we would smoke two cigarets in
stead of three two cigars instead of three. take
two chews instead of three and add the money
thus saved to the teachers payroll, the salaries
OF teachers could be increased 120 per cent.
AS it is pretty generally admitted that our
teachers as class are criminally underpaid,
these figures are, to say the least, rather hu-
nilating

Mayor Changes Opinion Regarding the
City Manager Plan.

Woodstock, New Brunswick, adopted
the city manager plan in 1919.
In reporting the last annual town
meeting the local paper comments up
on the hearty support the town man
ager plan has received. The mayor,
Thomas H. Noddin, is quoted as saying,
I'VE tried to put the town on bust
ness basis and at no time in the his
tory of Woodstock has such good feel
ing existed. When the town manager
proposition was before US, l may say
that for two years l was opposed to
the idea, but after experience 1 have
changed my mind. l am sure if we had
adopted this system ten years ago we
would have been the leading town in
Canada today"
A recent editorial of the Woodstock
Press calls attention to the fact that
the town manager form of government
has reduced the tax rate to $1.66 on

Growers Produce
New Orange Tree
An Eyer-Bearing Orange Tree May
RevolutioRize Orange Growing
Industry.
(By Associated Pressl

Tampa, Fla.-An ever-bearing orange
tree which citrus fruit growers believe
is destined to revolutionize the orange
industry of the state if not of the en-
tire country, has been discovered by
horticulturists in q small grove at
Avon Park, near here, and to protect
the specimen, it's purchasers have
placed around it a heavy wire fence
90 feet in height and stationed guards
day and night. The tree has been in
bearing continuously eight years but
until recentlNits existence was known
only to the owner and several neigh
bors, who, according to citrus experts,
did not realize its value but regarded
1t merely as a freak of nature. Sew
eral of southern Florida's largest cit
rus growers have organized a syndicate
purchased the tree, leased the ground
upon which it stands, and already are
taking steps to develop its possibilities
by propagating it through budwood,
with the expectation of having 100000
trees ready for setting out in groves
by 1928. The ever-bearing tree is
about 10 years old but its origin is a
mystery. Like the famous Temple or
ange tree discovered some years ago
on the estate of the late W. C. Temple,
one-time National League baseball
magnate, the new specimen stands
alone as the first of an entirely new
branch of the citrus family and it's
owners believe it will bring forth
stock true to the parent tree and as in
the case of the Temple tree, be worth
millions to the men who had the fore
sight to grasp its possibilities. APP
parently authentic records show that
for eight years the tree has bloomed
and borne fruit continuously and that
at no time during that period has it
failed to have blossoms and fruit at
all stages of maturity. In outward APP
pearance the fruit IS a Valencia ex-
cept that it is slightly more obIong
than that variety. The meat in tex
ture and favor is that of a perfect
Valencia, the variety that brings the
top price in the markets. The ever
bearing Florida lemon has been COM
mon for many years, but citrus experts
here declare they never before have
known of an ever-bearing orange tree.

against war to their children as soon as they

JAPAN'S PURPOSE

The Jill Shin1po, Japanese newspaper, doesn't
see why Japan hasn't as much right to control
China as Uncle Sam has to a Monroe Doctrine.
Any Kenosha school child can answer this.
Our Monroe Doctrine is only the protection Of
other countries on the American continent, to
keep out invaders.
Japan's idea of Monroe Doctrine is for
Toxic to absorb the wealth of China and militar-
ism its people. If the Japs merely said, Hands
off China" and took their own medicine, no one
would have any reasonable objection.

RESPONSIBILITY

The way high school girls ought to dress is
worrying lot of folks, mostly teachers. But
the Parents Association of Indiana recently
pointed out where reform should commence,
namely, in the home.
Misguided pride on the part of parents is re
sponsble for the evil of extravagant dressing
among school girls. Mrs. Smith wants her
daughter to look little bit better than Mrs
Jones, and the result has been a competition
rulnous to the ideals for which schools exist.
