and became as popular among the na

plays he added even greater laurels to
his previous funic nnd now he is enter
ing n new enterprise, something entire
ly different from any previous under

immense chewing gum factory.
It will not be tieorge M. Cohan 's aim
to improve the "breath of a nation"
as evidenced by many of the big chew
ing gum concerns of late, but it is his
idea to give the public a gum that will
not only meet with instantaneous ap
proval but will be in a great demand
,as a result of one of the most enormous
advertising canipnigin ever displayed.
In order to get the best results Air

It seems that the war department has

not only city council but a mass meet
ing of citizens must agree that the
building of the bridge will not interfere
with the city's rights on the river front
