Army has gone the way oe the Army Blues. Today, all hands are folksy and just ono big family.
 Back when troopers fought Q war to end wars, enlisted men were mighty careful to avoid din. ing at Q place frequented by ofii. cers. Down in Carolina, c Major General gave out 6 newspaper interview In which he stated that he wouldn't dine in 6 hotel where enlisted men were also served. That suited the men perfectly. Prices were too high in the Gen. erals hotel anyway. Months later, at the Marne, that General munched hardtack with the sur. vivors of his division and tears made twin paths through the grime on his cheeks. "The Old Man" had made the lads he taught discipline stand fast when the Imperial German Army was sweeping French and British troops back toward Paris and the Channel Ports. Figure 1t out your way. but we figure that 1t was possible only through the iron discipline that the 194l army losses out the window. Anyway, officers like Joe Dickman rated a saluate and the privilege of din- ing alone. Ask any man from the Third, The Rock of The Marne, Division!
 Orders arrive from Kansas City, appointing Bill Garrigus, of New ton Post, No. 1907. to the National Committee for National Defense of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States.
 Years ago, we forked over about four bits in American money for c packet of ersatz tobacco sold by c Jewish merchant in Q little Ger. man watering place where the Kaiser had winter home. That mixture was composed of leather shavings, grape leaves, dried fern, and ground rye straw. We smoked one pipe-full and presented the blacksmith with the rest. He came from Chicago, SO 1t was ali the same to him.
 Word comes ont of Denmark that the Danes are now rationed Q sort of ersatz tea made from cherry and hawthorne leaves. The Danes claim the brew is not half bad, but the Imenfolls are smok. Ing this tea and find in it some transient comfort. The tea sub- stitute is not taxed. Tobacco, when you can get it in Denmark, carries . higher tax than South- bury under Republican economy.
 Think of 1t, smokersi The Danes are forced into smoking faxed tea, while we let tobacco ground grow up to weedsl From up-country, we hear that the l940 tobacco crop is still in the warehouses. Down this way, people have only raised c little of the weed these past sev- eral years. It's time to cultivate c little tobacco and stow it away against the day when taxes will . make smoking luxury. We have tobacco ground along the She- paug, ct Pootatuck, and along
