Biuarii Are
Dinner Hosts
Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Stuart
were hosts Saturday evening at
their attractive Modoc avenue
home for a dinner party to
which six guests were bidden.
Napoleon,
you're just
an old
Fuddy Duddy
LOTS of thinking is being
i done these days about the
national defense. "Lee's have
faster battleships," says the sail
or. "Speedier airplanes," says
the flyer. "Put wheels on the
doughboy," says the soldier.
Mobility's the thing.
Wherefore the oil industry
by developing into a great
contributor toward the peace
and happiness of mankind
has become the nation's might
iest bulwark in time of war.
Mobility on sea or land or in
the air is spelled with three let
ters oil. Still bright is the
rule of Napoleon, a strong but
bygone character, that to win
in war you must get there first
j with the most men. But hu
j inchworm notions of travel are,
oh, so obsolete.
i
.)Ji Because it's geared to a busy
peace, because it's practiced in
meeting vastly changing needs,
national in scope the oil in
t dustry is always ready for an
f emergency. It's a peacetime
army of a million persons. Yet
this vital armament cost Uncle
Sam not one penny. Instead, it
i bears the heaviest of all tax
burdens,
i
Private enterprise has created
in the oil industry a pruning
hook and plowshare which are
also America's sword and buck
ler. It's an accomplishment
which Napoleon, with all his
. genius, couldn't even imagine.

An answer to the damage suit
of Wllm a E. Smith, against
Ada East, has been filed in cir

intersection, and proceeded onto
Main street when, sighting a

further claimed in the answer
there was room behind the East
car for the Smith car to pass
without striking the curb and
crashing into the stop sign pole.

about Cigarette Tobaccos
There are four types
of tobaccos found in the more popular
cigarettes, namely.. . Bright, Maryland,
hurley and Turkish.
ALL THESE TOBACCOS except Turkish (which is
bought direct from the planters in Turkey and Greece)
and Maryland (which is bought through sealed bids
under government supervision) are bought at publio
auction, just like any other auction where you might
have bought in a table or a chair.
AT THE AUCTION SALE the tobacco is piled in
baskets weighing from about 100 to 500 pounds and
each purchaser buys all of his tobaccos by competitive
bidding for the particular piles he wants.
THE CHESTERFIELD BUYERS buy the best of
these mild ripe tobaccos for the Chesterfield blend.
And it is Chesterfield's Combination ... the right amounts
of Burley and Bright . . . just enough Maryland . . . and
just enough Turkish that makes the big difference
between Chesterfield and other cigarettes.
It IS BECAUSE of this combination
that Chesterfields are COOLER, have
a BETTER TASTE and are DEFINITELY
MILDER. They are made of the world's
best cigarette tobaccos. You can't buy
