in smoke Of cigars and cigarettes
$500, 900 more than was spent On
all forms Of education in 1918, while
the total cost of all forms Of tobacco
in 1920 was five times the total Of
teachers salaries in 1913. If the peo-
pie who smoke and chew would only
take two smokes in the place Of htree,
and two chews in the place Of three
chews, and devote the money thus
saved to support the schools, the sal

to the speed OF the car, one Of them
being by Dougherty, who said the rate

woman lost control and the vehicle
crashed into a tree, the collision caus-
ing the ear to swerve at right angles,
after which It plunged backwards over
the high bark
The car struck heavily and went
over twice. according TO the report Civ
en- by people in the vicinity of the
scene Of the accident Had the ear
gone off at point so feet away it
