Little star you may be par for the course PERHAPS YOU'VE never thought of Old Joe Gloom, the tax-collector thousands met him personally at the Golden Gate International Ex- position's petroleum exhibit as a gentleman and an astron omer. Yet Old Joe otherwise known as the man in the black hat is getting so that as tronomical figures don't pack enough wallop to satisfy his appetite. If you pace off the distance to the sun or check it on your speedometer you'll find it's i roughly 93,000,000 miles. Just to double-check you might drop "jr a dollar at each mile-post. This really shouldn't bother you, be cause motorists this year will pay ten times that amount in gasoline taxes. Estimates indicate total gas tax collections will cross the billion-dollar mark. This, it strikes our naturally prejudiced eye, is a figure sufficiently large particularly when you re member th . the gasoline tax is one of the few which consider neither value nor the ability to pay. The unfortunately cockeyed truth is that taxes based on gal lonage mean that as price has gone down the tax-rate has - gone up. A $4 tax is more on i a $10 suit than a $4 tax on a $20 suit. Not counting the ex tra pennies tacked on here and there, the government has con stantly, since introduction of the gas-tax, taken more and more of less and less.

DOLLAR DAYS Continue Until Wednesday Night At Buy and Save . and MANY a smoker has switched to Camels because his value-sense applauded the thrift of getting more puffs per pack. But... that's only one small part of the story of slow burning. You get a lot more than savingsl You get extra mildness! Common sense tells you that a fast, fiery, hot-burning cigarette will not smoke comfortably or yield a delicate taste and fragrance. And that slow-burning tobaccos naturally would be mild and mellow. You get extra coolness. You needn't be a scientist to know that the slower tobacco burns, the cooler the smoking. You get extra-fine flavor. Excess heat ruthlessly destroys the subtle elements of flavor and aroma. Slow-burning Camels tell their, own taste-talel So.. .for thrift and for a smoking thrill... light up a slow-burning Camel I For More Mildness, Coolness, and Flavor Mrs. Boutelle's guest num bered fourteen.
