having. The GM tells me that on this
.date last year records were broken with
a high of 81 degrees. That's in Faren- -

gave me the incentive to avoid smokes

week, the pressure of the Farm
reared its ugly head and I was
confirmed in my newly acquired hobby
of a pack aday.

years of smoking. „ I've smoked Irregu-

Ahhhh, yes, smoking cigarettes.,
But smoking kills, you know. And, as
time goes by, smoking is looked on
