• “SHAKE”
We are sometimes too much inclined to think of the
farmers and city or town people as two sep.rate classes
of society, or draw a line between them. But there is no
difference. * * * The less we separate these two in­
dispensable elements the more both will prosper. Social­
ly and economically there is no place where the city’s
streets end and the country highways begin. All are
welded into an unbreakable chain. Nature gives both

No habit indulged in by the American people has
grown with suchrapidity as that of cigarette smoking.
Without moralizing on the subject, we merely give some
figures to show the trend during the past few years.
In 1926 the United States consumated approximately
90 billion cigarettes, costing about $625,009,000. Some­
one has figured that these placed end to end would ex­
tend to the moon and back eight times.
The growth of the habit may be seen by comparison
with the year 1914, when only about 30 billion cigarettes
were smoked, showing an increase of 60 billion, or a treb­
ling of the quantity, in 12 years.
„
During the same period the domestic output of cigars
declined from a little more than 8 billion to about 7 bil­
lion, while the amount of tobacco and snuff manufactur­
ed was also decreased approximately 10 per cent.
The revenue tax on all domestic tobacco products now
reaches about $370,000,000 a year, or more than $3 in
taxes alone for every man, woman and child in the coun­
try.

EASTER
*
* Does April 17th this year mean EASTER or
just “another Sunday?” W e may lay ¿side all questions
as to * * * and still lmd consolation in the recog­
nized commemoration of an event sanctioned and sancti­
fied thruout all Christendom, * * * and geep jn
mind the plain and simple raiment of Him who admon­
ished to "take no thought * * * of what ye shall
put on.” * * * ami still give thought to the “new­
ness of life” that arose from the tomb of greatest sacri­
fice since the world began.” * * * Easter, in its
freshness and glory, is the great companion-day to
Christmas; * * * the world’s ushering in of Spring,
of newness of hope for higher Christian idealism; and
without it the world would have to count off one great
mark in the moral and religious scale of human better­
'
ment.
