bv the historians of the World
war of 1914," the committee
states. "Much of the material giv
ing us a clue to the reaction of
this country to the warring na
tions. to our neutrality, has disap
neared. Partial answers to these
questions can be obtained from the
study of newspapers, but most of
the original sources arc gone.
"The committee welcomes any
suggestion of fields of study or
collection that RhouM be under
taken, so that in duo time more
definite requests for material
might be issued. It may be pos
sible to create at Nebraska a cen
ter of study for the present war,
following the example of the Hoo

1,200 homebound in Nebraska.
Child welfare workers estimate
that there are six crippled chil
dren per thousand population. On
this basis Nebraska would have
about 7,800 crippled, about 1,200
of whom are homebound.
University officials realize that
supervised home study will not be
a complete panacea for the edu
cational difficulties of the isolated
and crippled child, but believe it
will do much to bring about nec
essary educational adjustments to
fit the handicapped child to habili
tate himself.
Under the new plan the student
load can be adjusted to his ability,
and should he move, there will be
no change of materials and each

of school opportunity that the
child is given, but plans to coun

odav there are about LOOO.OOO
cigar stores, drug stores, country and grocery stores where
you can buy cigarettes in the United States. These re
tailers, and the jobbers who serve them, have built up
a service of courtesy and convenience unmatched by any other
industry catering to the American public's pleasure.
There are another million people who
are engaged directly or indirectly in the transportation of
cigarettes to every town, hamlet and crossroads.
It IS ESTIMATED that there are 1,602,000
tobacco farmers raising tobacco in 20 out of the 48
states. Good tobacco is one of the hardest crops to
raise and bring to market, requiring great skill and
patience from seed-bed planting to harvesting and cur
ing. The modern tobacco farmer has done well the job
of constantly improving the quality of his product.
TlIE AVERAGE LENGTH of service of the 13,230
people working in the Chesterfield factories, storage
houses, leaf-handling and rcdrying plants is over 10
years. This means that every 6tcp in the making of
Chesterfields, regardless of how small, is handled by peo
ple who have had 10 years of experience and ability in
knowing their jobs.
TRULY TOBACCO OPENS DOORS to fields where
people live, work and achieve, and Chesterfield takes
pride in its ever increasing part in this great industry that
is devoted entirely to the pleasure of the American public.
To SMOKERS, Chesterfield Cigarettes have
always said, and now repeat, that in no other cigarette
made can you find the same degree of real mildnessand
good taste, or the same high quality of properly cured
and aged tobaccos. Chesterfield Cigarettes are made
with one purpose only.. .to give smokers everywhere
