Fresh Vegetables
Should Be Used

While there is nothing new on
the vegetable market. the vegetable
departments of local stores are well
filled with appetizinglv fresh vege-
tables. Spinach is still on the mar
ket. very fresh and crisp. The small
summer squash are delicious and
the seeds do not have to be removed
as in larger squash.
Avocados are still appearing in
some shops and crisp, white celery,
green onions and tiny radishes may
be purchased.
This is really our best season for
fresh vegetables and we should
make the most of them, leaving the
canned vegetables for time when
the fresh cannot be obtained.

This Is the stock reply which a num-
Der of soft drink dealers in a certain

them distinctly for Orange-Crush.
OF course their idea is to sell the

they are able to make fraction or

But what q difference between
Orange-Crush and these limitations
For Orange-Crush Is q true-fruit
drink, contains real orange juice. To
the Juice of luscious oranges Is added
the delicate flavor Of their peel, the
zestful tang Of the fruit acid found
in oranges, lemons and lines. a pure
food color such as is used in cakes
and candles, healthful carbonated
-yater, pure cane sugar. Nothing else.
Mothers are warned to instruct
their children not only to ask for
Orange-Crush by name but to insist
that it's served in the Krinkly Bottle.

makers and those attempting to en-
force the law were drinking, that
more than a million citizens had be-
come users of intoxicants "becausc
Of prohibition" and that G6 per cent
Of the natioAs population is opposed
to it.
Differ On Effect
Wheeler said prohibition was a
success and is the will and wish Of
the majority. Describing the use of
intoxicants rs "entrenchcd SIM" he
claimed for the federal and state en-
forcing measures policy Of patience
while awaiting eradication of this
"sin."
He said that most wet propaganda
was conceived and fostered by "liq-
uor interests and that the nation
was still preponderantly "dry." He
said prohibition was based on sound
governmental principles, "the inner
emit right Of the people to better their
condition" and not "fanaticism," as
charged by barrow.
The chief point Of difference re-
vealed by the debaters, aside from
their methods of exposition, seemed
to be their ideas of the effect Of in
toxicants upon man. Wheeler paint
ed alcohol as monster, habit FORM
ing, flendish, and insidious. that
drove men to brutalities and eco
nomic disasters and corrupted morals
generally.
barrow couldn't see the harm in
drinking "in moderation" and ex-
pressed no concern for those who
drank otherwise.

Tourist Travel Will

The nations greatest migration is
to be made this summer.
According to figures furnished K.

association. before the close Of 1927
4O,O0O,00O peoplc-a third of the
country's population-will travel by
motor car. Their wheeled flight over
highways and byways. mountain and
plain, constitute the most colossal
pcace-time movement in the history
Of mankind.
These vast caravanSerieS Will use
between 100000 and 100000 auto
mobiles in their wandcrings--almost
half the passenger ears in use in the
nation. These figures are based on
the situation which prevailed in 1926.
All indications point to an increase
of about 10 per cent in the number of
tourists and the number of auto
mobiles. The summer Of 1926 found
36.oOO.0oO people taking to the high
ways in approximately 100000
automobiles.
A vast amount Of money will be
spent by the travelling hosts to enrich
the innumerable cities and towns and
the millions Of stay -at-home servitors
that cater to roadside wants. The
traveller will spend ut least three and
a third billion dollars-a tremendous
factor in the increased prosperity Of

out the nation.

which will be on the road, three and
a third millions will carry camping

Of 33 days each. The other two-thirds
will patronize hotels and will spend
an average of 10 days on tour. For
the canvas brigade the daily expen-
diture is estimated at $40 per car or
S33,333,000 daily for them all. which
in 33 days will total nearly $l,1O0,-

their expenses running about even
with the camping cohorts, although
touring about only one-third as long,
