Is there a case against cigarettes? In the mail this week we were interested in reviewing two publications that displayed glaring contradictions. The contradictions involved the safety or danger that is inherent in the use of tobacco products. In a publication of the magaListen, zine, published in Washington, D. C., a four-pag- e spread was devoted to the work being done by Sen. Frank Moss of Utah in the fight against tobacco. The article was very complimentary to Sen. Moss, particularly in his work which resulted in the banning of cigarette advertising on TV. The article pointed out some of the findings of study groups and scientific tests which would indicate a relationship between smoking and various illnesses, cancer. It indicated that tobacco is a drug, and therefore has the same effect on the human body, and should be treated as a drug. Comments were also quoted individuals who have been by able to overcome the smoking habit. Most of their comments were to the effect that they wish some greater warnings had been made earlier so they would not have spent many years dragging on the weed. The article pointed out that the tobacco study has been going on for many years. Scientific study teams, with no axe to grind, pro or con. have come up with evidence which, to many, is unquestionable in its indictment of tobacco as a health hazard. The second publication, issued by the Tobacco Institute, Does scienasks the question tific evidence really establish a case against cigarettes? In the publication, the authors discredit all tobacco reunscisearch as misleading, not based and fact. on entific," They quote scientists who make statements to the effect that the cause of cancer is as yet not known, and therefore could not be caused by smoking. They cite many surveys and tests made that did not show any appreciable difference in health between smokers and then accuse groups of coloring the facts. They state, Research that does not condemn cigarettes is minimized, overlooked, or flatly ignored by the propagandists. The controversy is nothing new. It is as old as the tobacco facts and being propagandists, while they totally ignore the voluminous reports linking tobacco and various kinds of illnesses, ignore fellow workers and many people in high places who have had to give up smoking for health reasons, and ignore lung irritations, throat irritations, nervous conditions, stomach troubles, digestive problems and skin irritations caused by smoking is facetious. And at the same time they ignore the addictive drug properties of tobacco, and the resulting withdrawal problems. In their publication, the tobacco industry points out that to many adults, smoking is one of life's pleasures. This may be true, but to many other millions, the smoking habit has become an expensive, smelly habit which they would give up in a minute if it were not for the fact that they are addicts to the drugs in tobacco. Most of them would discourage their children from taking up the same habit, although they are seldom successful in doing dirty, A i slurs a common Interest and goal. MUSIC HELPS A CHILD CROW SOCIALLY Music Is to be ' treasured for the pure pleasure It brings, but Is not pleasure untempered by the practical. Studying an Instrument and performing In recitals, contests and festivals builds poise and social ease. Children who day in school music groups tend to lead and participate in a broad range of other school activities. Playing in the band helps a child learn cooperation and consideration for others. Such a child Is not at a loss for frlsnds. small Insignificant word. But what does it mean to you 7 Can you imagine the world without music? Or, on the otherhand, can you hear music In everything around you? Music Is Important to the young people of our communities also. Let's explore some of the values Involved: MUSIC ENRICHES LIFE When is the last time you have asked yourself, "What am I doing to help my child live an abundant, happy life?" The answer Is to lead him to as many experiences of Joy and beauty, truth and goodness, pleasure and happiness as you can. And, what better way than with' music? Music surrounds and interprets and colors all the experiences of life, both sweet and bitter. Music Is not an It Is Isolated, compartmented subject. part and parcel of all the history that has ever been lived, all the living that will ever be. The child who has some know- ledge of music possesses great riches. The child who plays a musical Instrument d. He has the pleasure of Is creating music and he has the satisfaction of giving music. He will have a growing discernment of the good and worthwhile from all that goes under the spirit of music, and will gain In appreciation of the great music literature that we have Inherited and that will be created during his lifetime. MUSIC IS FUN. . . EXCITING Music Is fun to listen to. And yet, so much more fun to create I Watch your childs face when you give him his first real band Instrument!

His drive was aimed at stopping advertising that appealed to young people and got them hooked on the weed. Once hooked, the indu-tr- y knew they had them for life.
