INHALE WITH RELIEF Now some doctors trace lung cancer to the air, rather than cigarettes, wfhich is a relief to all those who would find it easier to give up breathing than smoking. Scout Anniversary (An Editorial) We salute the Boy Scouts of America on its forty-fifth birthday, now being observed during Boy Scout Week, (Feb. 6 to 12. Since, its founding in. 1910 the organization has enriched the lives of over 22,750,000 -boys and adult leaders. Truly Scouting represents a living cross section of American life. Boys of every race, religion and economic background are attracted ,to Scouting. Today we find 2,700,000 boys in its ranks. Add to that impressive figure the 960,000 adults of good character who give generously of their time and talents to serve as leaders of units, Merit Badge counselors and in many other capacities. Th^re is hardly an1 American family that has not felt its'influence. Dr. Arthur A. Schuek, the chief Scout executive, a leader in the organization since 1913, feels that it is of vital .importance to train the >boys of today to be ready for positions of leadership as they j^row to manhood. "Strong character, participating citizenship and physical fitness," ' he says, "are needs of our boys and young men who are served by the program of Scouting in cooperation with the •home, the school, the church, and all other community institutions actively' interested in training our future citizens." Scouting's purpose, stated in the federal charter granted by Congress in 1916, is to promote the "ability of boys to do things for themselves and others, to train them in Scoutcraft, and to teach them- patriotism, courage, self-reliance aftd kindred virtues." Every member of the nation's 95,000 Scouting units is indeed "having some kind of experience that is adding to his equipment to meet the problems of adult life." It is that training that we heartily endorse on tihis noteworthy birthday.

This repprt comes from Glen D. Palmer, director of the Illinois Department of Conservation. His department annually sells some eight million forest tree seedlings and wildlife plants for use on rural lands. Christmas trees are winning recognition as a new Illinois crop that can be cut iQ winteitime when farm income is low and ordinary field work is at a standstill. Besides yielding profit from ground that might otherwise be idle, evergreen plantations are increasing Illinois farm values, and helping to keep soil from eroding. Quail and other game hkrds and animals find these young pine tracts ideal places for shelter, particularly during ice and snow storms.

To be completely honest--there are some bumps which nothing will level out completely* \et even the real rough ones turn out a lot smoother when you take them in a 1955 Buick. And that's not just our say-so. New owners of these bright new beauties keep telling us that. So you may wonder --how come? What's different about the Buick ride that makes it such a marvel? The answer is--plenty. Most cars have coil springs on front wheels only. Buick has them all around--and this year they're newly calibrated for even deeper smothering of jounce and jar. So here your ride is balanced, buoyant, level, serenely smooth. Most cfers drfofe through the rear springs. Buick drives through a torque-tube that takes up all driving thrust, wipes out rear-wheel wiggle and wag, steadfc^ your going to a sure and solid track. And no other car in all America has these great comfort extras plus the backbone of a massive X-braced frame plus both direct and lever-type shock absorbers to snub after-bounce plus a special front-end geometry to stabilize "cornering" plus tubeless tires on extra-wide ritns for softer riding and greater stability. Surely, you owe it to yourself to try this great Buick travel, just to judge things for yourself. You'll find it the nearest thing to velvet on Wheels--and made even more so by the silkiness of record-high V8 power and the absolute smoothness of new Variable Pitch OynafSow.* Come visit us this week--for sure. *Dym*flow Drift it itmirni on Ro^iwuuttr, optiond £• txtrs cost om otbtr Strhs.
