BY CAMPS OF CCC
"The CCC camps have re-established
the Ideals, courage, patriot
Ism and the spirit of 'I can lick
the world' In more than halt a
million young Americans," said

most popular of Franklin D. Roose
velt's recovery experiments.
. "It Is the man-bulldlng side of
the CCC that is the fundamental
objective of the program," he said.
"I have seen the sheer despair and
dejection of then youths u they
entered camp and a few months
later have seen their confident
stride and the light of hope and
ambition rekindled In their eyes.
"The accomplishments of the CCC
are generally listed In terms of
miles of roads, telephone lines, trails,
fire breaks, lookout and ranger sta
tions and (Ire-fighting service. But
It Is the less tangible social benefits
that really count."

There is no need for a
lot of whangdoodle talk
about cigarettes
just plain common-sense
When you stop to think about your
cigarette what it means to you
here's about the way you look at it
Smoking a cigarette gives a lot of
pleasure it always has.
People have been smoking and
enjoying tobacco in some form or an
other for over 400 years.
Of course you want a cigarette to
be made right. And naturally you
want it to be mild. Yet you want it to
have the right taste and plenty of it.
In other words you want it to
Satisfy.
Scientific methods and ripe mild to
baccos make Chesterfield a milder
and better 'tasting cigarette. We
believe you will enjoy them.
