THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

1.-The believing we do something when
we do nothing is the first allusion OF
tobacco" wrote Emerson, in the year
1861.
Perhaps he thus. once and for all, ex-
pressed the scholars opinion of smok-
ing
The habit has made remarkable
strides since pre-Civil War days, so that
today most men smoke, and thousands
and thousands of women.
Smoking is regarded as a sophisticated
thing to do by most smokers, although
perhaps not very many of them would
admit that they feel so about 1t.
One has but to watch the average
woman smoking her cigarette, however,
to see that she feels rather set up
over it.
Let us be frank about 1t.
There are thousands OF smokers who
do not like to smoke.
They smoke because they think it is
the thing to do.
They are caught in a tradition and
can't get themselves untangled.
This applies rather more to pipe
smokers than to consumers Of cigars
and cigarettes.
The woods are full of bright young
men trying their best to like pipe smok-
ing, when all the time they had rather
smoke cigarettes.
Perhaps the real pipe smoker gets
more genuine pleasure out of his form
of smoking than do the devotees OF the
other two forms.
In the first place, he has an instru-
ment of his own to carry around in his
pocket, the pipe, hallowed by tradition
extending over many, many years.
He has the pipe itself. to handle, TO
possess, to use. This is phase OF the
matter not given to smokers In other
FORMS although they try to initiate 1t by
the use of holders.
But a holder. at best, is an impasSive
thing. 1t scarcely deserves to be placed
in that class of things which belong to
one.
The pipe, too, is an intriguing instru-
ment. One either likes or dislikes a
cigar or cigarette. They are fortnight
smokes" whose taste is pretty well
known in advance.
But a pipe has an individuality and
character of its own. Often, Tor no APP
parent reason, it tastes" well, often just
the opposite, and no amount OF care OF
use of the same tobacco Will explain IL
We would say. from observations OF
many pipe smokers that only about 5
per cent of them are real pipe "tans.
The way to tell true pipe smoker
is by the amount of time per day
during which his pipe graces his face.
The 100 per cent pipe smoker has his
pipe in his mouth practically the en-.
tire time he is awake. He can read
with smoke issuing from his lips. write
while smoking, almost eat, ana GER
tainly drink. while doing so.
This group forms a select body the
world over. the members of which
NAV be envied by lesser smokers, who
content themselves with a few cigars
or cigarettes a day.
A curious thing about the genuine
nine fiend is that he has utterly no
taste in regard to the tobacco ne
smokes. r.o,,
Your finicky amateur may, and often
does, exhaust the role OF oranos IN

Washington Anniversary
To Be Truly National

From the Kansas City Star.
Comprehensive plans are under way
to observe in 1892 the 200th anniver-
sary Of the birth of George washington.
The observance will be the most extern
siye ever witnessed in this country in
honor of any man or any event. 1t will
begin February % and continue until
Thanksgiving day in November. The
celebration was authorized by Congress
in 1924. Later by joint resolution Con-
0ress invited the several States to join
with the National Government in the
movement and to name State commits
sions to direct State observances. The
plan is to make the celebration truly
national with more or less continuing
patriotic manifestations, ordered studies
and expoSitions of the life Of Washing
ton through the schools and other me-
diuns, with particular reference to
widespread community participation.
While the States and large cities will
have their own elaborate celebrations
at varying times, the center of interest
will be in Washington, where special
and related activities will be directed
with reference to the anniversary Pc
Rod. The splendid building program
under way in the Capital will be adj
Vanced as rapidly as consistent Win
facilities, to the end that as many OF
the buildings as possible will be COM
.pleted in time for the Summer visitors.
The total cost of this series of Federal
buildings will be 5000, 900. The ma
iestic memorial bridge across the Po-
tomac. symbolizing the union of North
and South. soon will be opened. The
Mount Vernon boulevard, now under
construction, will be one of the most
imposing drives in the world. The ex-
tensive regional park system, a glorif1ed
project for the Capital City, will in
clude the ruins of old Potomac Canal
planned and constructed under the en-
cheering direction Of Washington.
President Coolidge, speaking on the
subject of the celebration, said Wash
ington has come to personify the Re
public" It is because of his tremen-
dous force in the War Of independence.
in leading the victorious colonies
through the first stages of acquired lib
erty, in presiding over the Constitu-
tional Convention and in serving as the
Republics first President that this per-
sonification Is act and true. ThR Me-
ton cannot too highly honor Was=4-
ington and this generation will have a
favored opportunity in celebrating the
200th anniversary.

Apparently there is just one thing
big business" no matter how care
fully and economically organized, will
never learn. This is the utter absurdity
of the claim of the "racketeer" psuedo
press associations to be able to have
printed in the news columns of metro
politan dailies favorable comments on
products and personalities. Every big
business head should have cordial
telephone acquaintance with some alert
managing editor.

Higghligghts on the Wide World
Excerpts From Newspapers of Other Lands.

far from our offices. The pavement
In this vicinity, while not part Of
the street, strictly speaking, certainly
offers perils to pedestrians neverthe-
less, for it has been rubbed as smooth
as marble. The authorities seem as yet
unable to decide just which of the
two surfaces offers the greatest security
to foot passengers, the smooth or the
rough, in thus providing both varieties
for their use. The desire TO give a
monolithic effect to the setting OF the
peristyle hardly seems to us sufncient
excuse for the exception.

Y e MATIN, Paris.-Women have
obtained the right to vote in
Turkey. It does not matter
IL that their suffrage is valid for
the present only in municipal
and local elections. In very short
time they will be allowed the ballot
in all legislative and national elections.
= 1t seems very evident that French
women remain the only women with
out the right of franchise, not only in
France, but even in the world. 1t also
appears that If they continue to be SO
Disseminated against, it Is not the
fault OF the Senate - Oh, no! - for
everybody knows that 1t Is only too
anxious to oblige the ladies. No,
rather it is the fault of the women
themselves, why should women wish
to vote?" they often ask each other,
when they are so happy, and when
the codes of law and chiyalry are so
favorable for them?"
Such are the expressions heard on
every side, and it is not merely men
who make such remarks.

What patent foods to eat.

And Aristotle wise?

Awaken great surprise.
Why do we not surpass their powers
And leave their glories wrecked?---
