"The difficulties of an iconoclast were expressed by Ernest D. Tyler, extension instructor in history at the University, in relating the discussions which his story about Captain John Porter had witnessed, and their have aroused in the newspapers.
Tyler Offers Proof Which Squelches John Smith and Pocahontas Story
As a result, the Boston Transcript ran a half-column editorial to the effect that Pocahontas was real (which has never been denied) and referred to a volume by Fiske in which the known facts about Pocahontas were related. Relations" were omitted in the first translation was taken to indicate that the Pocahontas incident was one of those incidents deleted for political reasons. The story of Pocahontas' rescue of Captain John Smith was long accepted especially in the grade school book, but after many investigations, the controversy on the subject has arisen.
Offers Historical References
Mr. Tyler submits these historical references:
Charles Dean, president of the Massachusetts Historical Society, in his publication of the original "Wingfield Discourse," said it contained an account which was the same as that of Richard B. Wilson's release as found in his "True Relations." Dean edited "True Relations" in 1866 and came to the conclusion that Smith was "unrelieable," and he was supported by Justin Winser in his book "The Real Adams." Henry Adams of Massachusetts in his essay, "Captain John Smith," which first appeared in the North American Review in January, 1876 was later reprinted in "Historical Essays" 1801, review in his Santa Clara story quitting proof.
Alexander Brown in his "Genesis of the United States" of 1890 has document after document discrediting the veracity of Smith, and he called attention to the story that women were falling in love with Smith where-ever they came. Smith's country, according to Smith himself, in 1877, John Fake, Harvard, in his "Old Virginia and Her Neighbors", dispaused all previous historians' arguments as "filmy" and tries to justify Smith in three or four pages on the grounds that the story had been purposely omitted for political reasons. Smith's "Real Relatives" was known at Smith's parties and cities were still left in (such as the murder of all of the members of Smith's party by the Indians).
Edward G. Channing, in his "History of the United States," (vol. 1, p. 5) gives full credit to Brown's findings on the relationship between which he says "a careful comparison of dates and sequence of events as related by Smith and an written by him originally in his story, shows unreliability of Smith's account entirely."
Fake's story is reviewed in the July, 1888, number of the American Historical Review (v. 3 no. 4) by Lyon Fletch of Virginia, who upholds Philippe de la Loiwine, whose this review was an appended footnote by Lewis L. Kropt, a Hungarian, which stated that he had shown in his "London Notes and Queries" (series 7, vol. 9) that "Smith's exile from Austria has caused licha and Moldavia, as he told them unworthy, pseudo-historical romance and that this bogus grant of a coat-of-arms to Smith by the Prince of Transylvania, was a 'chumy piece of forgery.'" These exploits were added of Smith before he came to America.
Woodrow Wilson, in his "History of America" says, "Smith sounded like brass but really there was some gold about him, but he probably spiced up an American spirit." Albert Bushnell hark in his articles, "American Historical Liar" (Harpers,

Conway W. Sams, Virginia historian, in his "Conquest of Virginia; the Second Attempt," handles Captain John Smith's veracity even more roughly than Alexander Brown, by calling him invincible.
Pocahontas Wanted Indian Peace
Technobots winner Michael Poechontas was virginly kidnaped last year by Governor Alfred of Virginia in order to compel Powhatan to hold peace. Powhatan met all the demands and yet Argail kept Poechontas several years. Her marriage to John Rolfe was more political than for love.
The reason Pocahontas was so well received in England was because the practical minded English saw in her a symbol of Indian peace, and not for the saving of John Smith's life, says Mr Tyler.
It is significant to note that years later at the death of Powhatan and Pocahonta, the Indian peace in Virginia came to an end.
Mr. Tyler calls attention to the fact that David S. Muzzy's "History of America" now used as the high school text in Kansas high schools calls Smith a "martnet and a braggart" and omits the Pocahontas story.
Ernest Rolland Smith, p12, died at the Desceanese hospital in St. Louis after an appendicitis operation. He was chief of the St. Louis Station of United States Food and Drug administration for 12 years. Before that Smith occupied the same position in Kansas City. During the war he served in the sanitary corps. He was also president of Business Men's association of St. Louis.

EXPLANATION:
This very old illusion was invented by Indian fakirs. The secret was unearthied in 1849 by the great magician, Robert-Houdin. At that time, ether had just been discovered, and little was known about it. The story goes that this new magic could make people light as air. To prove it, he caused the subject to rise into the air and float apparently underwater. He passed away with his body to show there were no wires or supports.
are nasty, many explanations for this old trick. One is that the girl wear a concealed harness, which ends in a socket between her shoulder blade, but the other is that the harness piston is pushed up from below, causing her to rise in the air. The piston is invisible, because it forms a shallow depression similar to the background. The magician can pass the hoop over her body because it does not stretch apart for a second when it passes the piston.

It's fun to be fooled ___
...it's more fun to KNOW
Another "magic show" is cigarette advertising.
One of its greatest tricks is the illusion that cigarettes can be made miraculously "MILD" through manufacturing methods.
THE EXPLANATION All popular cigarettes today are made in modern sanitary factories with up-to-date machinery. All are heat treated—some more intensively than others, because raw, inferior tobacco require
more intensive treatment than choice, ripe tobacco.
The real difference comes in the tobaccoos that are used. The better the tobacco, the milder it is.
It is a fact, well known by leaf tobacco experts, that Camels are made from finer, MORE EXPENSIVE tobaccos than any other popular brand.
This is why Camels are so mild. This is why Camels have given more pleasure to more people than any other cigarette ever made.
It’s the secret of Camels’ rich "bouquet"
their cool flavor... their non-irritating
milky taste
All the natural, ripe goodness of Camel's tobacco is kept fresh for you by the famous air-tight, welded Humidor Pack. Don't remove it.
