m strong for sunshine
so I'm strong for Toasting"
I've ilwtyj found that really good
reasons are the simplest reasons.
For instance, I know that sunshine
mellows and heat purifies. "Toast
ing" is therefore very easy for me
to understand. And very easy for
roe to appreciate because my
sense of the fastidious is so very
exacting. You see, I'm always
aware of the fact that my cigarette
comes in such intimate contact
with my lips. Quite naturally, it's
the purity of "Toasting" that I
single out for special praise. It'i
just my own personal fcminiive
reason for saying "Luckics Please!"

The OREGON
CAVES
LOCATED in Southern Oregon is one of the natural
J wonders of the woi'ld, now easily accessible over
excellent paved highways. The magnificent marble
caverns known as the Oregon Caves were first dis
covered by Elijah Davidson in 1874. Many improve
ments have been made since that time and now the
labyrinth of caverns and passages has been bridged
and guarded by stairways and handrails of steel and
beautifully illuminated by electric lights.
Modem cottages of the Swiss Chalet type are available
at the Oregon Caves Resort and offer excellent accom
modations to the -visitor. A veritable fairyland of
grandeur- and beautv awaits
you at the Oregon Caves. Why
not plan a visit this summer1?
