ter to lin. W. H. Humphreys,
dated March 14, Mrs. E. J. "Whit
ney of Long Beach, tells of their
experience daring the earthquake.
The Whitney and their daughter
Meryle lired . here for sereral
years:
"Oar house, a frame structure,
stood the shock quite-well. A few
cracks in plaster, the mantle moT
ed.a few Inches, and the front
porch wrecked but that is so little
to what happened to most of the
buildings," she writes. "All frame
houses held up, better than the
brick and stucco ones.
"I was near. the. kitchen. door
when it struck without warning.
I got onto the screen porch and
tried to get outside but never did.
I was tossed around like a ball,
got a leg and arm scratched and
back wrenched and was oh, so
deathly sick to my stomach, but
that was nothing to what, hap
pened to others. Oh! so many .hurt
and dying,
"Wo came right here to Mrs.
Pettitt's (nee Mrs. Wheeler of Sa
lem) on. the edge of Los Angeles.
Quake not so bad here but Long
Beach looks a wreck. No gas on
' yet and you know that is all we
hare for heat and cooking there.
All parks and vacation lots are
full of people cooking on camp
fires some with their furniture
in car with them. Big army tents
In the parks for hospitals.
"There are 42 public school
buildings in Long Beach and not
one of them can be used and no
other building to house 25 or 30
thousand children, so no more
school this year I guess."

The formulas and processes which
make Chesterfield a milder and
better 'tasting cigarette are secret
to prevent others from copying them
If every person knew the method and processes of
tanning leather, it would be of interest; but what
people want to know is: Is it a good shoe? Is it com
fortable? Will it wear longer? Is the price right?
So it is with Chesterfield Ggarettes. If smokers,
men and women, knew all of the formulas and pro
cesses of manufacture, it would be of interest to them,
but what smokers really want is the result.
Everything that goes into Chesterfield Cigarettes is
as good as money can buy.
Every process has in it all that science knows about
cigarette manufacture.
The formulas are secret to prevent others from
copying them. The mildness and the better taste
you may prove for yourself. May we ask you to
try Chesterfields? - r '
