Fifty years ago eight girls and

of them.
She wore a dress her mother
had just sent North. 1t was pink
broadcloth, almost to her ankles,
and had a yoke and short sleeves

She was hearing Ignace Jan Pad

concert.
Lucille, the schools star must

pianist's Minuet. Her whole being
anticipated the moment when
she would hear him play it. He
just had to play the Minuet!
He did, but not until his final
encore.
"The audience made him, by
chanting Minuet! Minuet!" re-
ports the former Miss Patterson
who 10 years later became Mrs
Clifford B. Oakley. She and Mr.
Oakley live in South Harrison

So many requests have been
received for the big free book,

''Tobaccoland, U.S.A." is the
name given to the group of states
in which Americas fine cigarette
tobaccos are grown. While to-
bacco is grown in % states of the
Union, the primary cigarette to-
bacco states are Maryland, Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee,
Kentucky, Ohio and Missouri.
Scores of colleges have written
to praise the completeness of this
story of Americas great tobacco
industry, which in AZ pages with
over 100 large Photographic illus
trations fully describes tobacco
farming and cigarette manufac-
ture. 90
Of particular interest to many
readers is the long preparation OF
tobaccos for Chesterfield, a pro-
cess lasting from two to three
years. Careful steps of planting
growing, harvesting, curing, age
ing, conditioning for correct mciS-
ture content, and blending of the
various domestic ftobaccos with
imported Turkish leaf are tha
groundwork. Then comes mod
