WHEN the happy work of Christmas Eve Is
done. And the clock calls the approach of
midnight. When the gifts and toys .are in their
place on the children's tree have a Camel!
For to those who think of others there is no
other gift like Camel. Camel makes every great
day greater, increases the gladness in giving,
makes life's anticipations brighter. Before
Camel, no cigarette ever was so good. Camels
are made of such choice tobaccos, are so skilfully
blended, that they never tire the taste, or leave
a cigaretty after-taste. Into the making of this
one cigarette goes all of the skill of the largest
tobacco organization in the world.
So on. this Christmas Eve, when your work
for others is done when you're too glad for
sleep with thoughts of tomorrow's happiness,
oh, then taste the smoke that every day brings
contentment to so many millions. Know the
mellowest mildness, the most rich and fragrant
taste that ever was put into a cigarette.
Have a Camel!

I Camels represent the utmost in cigarette qtuthty. The choicest of Turkish and
domestic tobaccos are blended into Camels by master blenders and the finest o
trench cigarette paper is made especially for them. Out highest wish, if you do
not yet know Camel quality, is that you try them. We invite you to compare Camelt
- with any cigarette made at any price.

It is well to remember your few closest friends
with a supply of Camels, for Christmas Day
and the days to come. Get your Camel
