Text Monday, the 9th, has been
designated as Fire Prevention Day
throughout the state, a day set
aside whereon the people are to
remove from their premises all
dangerous and inftamable material,
give the house and premises a gen
eral cleaning up from a fire point
of view, and then they are to give
special attention to the overhaul
ing and repairing of stove flues.
It is universally conceded that
the major portion of fires occur
from carelessness and neglect of
ordinary precautions; an ounce of
prevention in these cases would
certainly be worth more than the
proverbial pound of cure.
On Monday the local fire depart
ment will give a demonstration of
its proficiency in connecting up the
fire-fighting apparatus and getting
one or more streams of water play
ing on the building supposedly in
flames: The demonstration will
begirt at 1:30 in the afternoon
with J. W. Mauldin’s, south end of
Main street, building supposedly
on fire, then will come an alarm
from Ward 3, when the department
will make a hasty run to the Carter
home, north of City Park, and ex
tinguish the play conflagration at
that point.
The demonstration of efficiency
will doubtless be watched with in
terest by many ot our people—the
yth, at 1:30 and 1:40 o’clock.

How America's largest cigarette manufac- :
turer accomplished “the Impossible” by
producing a MlLD cigarette that SATISFIES.

So ’ irly, almost anyone can make a
< ait ’ lust roll up some tobacco in a
piece ■ i pure paper—and there you are.
7 i re are, perhaps, over S00 brands
of cigarettes sold in this country today.
Hut not one of them does what Chester
fields do — for Chesterfields are MILD ;
and yet they SATISFY.
Some cigarettes may be mild, but they
don’t satisfy. Only one cigarette does
BOTH—Chesterfield!
This truly unique cigarette has all
cf iiliut refreshing taste - delicacy (or
mildfness) which any good cigarette must
* have}. Yet, without sacrificing any of
‘ this delightful mildness, Chesterfields go
one step further-—they do more than
men ly “please your taste”— they let

in Cigarette - Making
\\/’E ARE proud to be the firm that
’ ’[brought about this important
development in cigarette enjoyment—
for that is exactly what the Chesterfield
blend is.
This cigarette is an outgrowth of
long, earnest effort on the part of this,
the largest cigarette manufacturing con
^ cern in the United Stales.
The mild, yet satisfying Chesterfield
blend is not the result of happy chance. j
It is one of the results of our many year*
of cigarette experience — of the heavy
volume of our purchases of cigarette to
bacco— of the prestige and advantage
these enormous purchases give us in se
curing the choicest leaf from the tobacco
fields of the world.
Chcstocfields arc an achievement.
/. New Thing
for a Cigarette to Do
CHESTERFIELDS do the «nc thin*
you have always wished a cigarette
would do—they satisfy /
Smoke them and we believe you will
find that ordinary cigarettes seem by ;I
comparison almost flat.
Give Chesterfields a trial. We
believe you will be glad to learn
what they can teach you about
cigarette enjoy men t.

You have been reading here some
rather unusual, almost daring, sta'e

they makt Hood v. ith smokers, v e could
not afford to make these statements to
you over our signature.
But these statements, strong as they
are, can mean little or nothing to you
until you have actually smoked your first
Chesterfield.
You will find that your own dealer
has Chesterfields waiting for you.
