If you had lived in certain Eu-
ropean countries in certain decades
OF the nth century and were caught
smoking. no matter whether you
were man or woman, you would
have had an excellent chance of
going 10 the gallows. If you are a
flapper in the South Bend Of today
and were caught putting a flag you
would be labelled as an advanced
young woman.
Encyclopedia Britannica is author
ity for the proposition regarding the
18th century while "Snappy Stories"
supports the latter declaration.
That the people of this city con-
slider smoking far more important
than education is borne out by the
fact that about S2.135,25O was spent
by tobacco users in this city last
