THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, MARCH 27, 1930 THE WORDS on the back of the package still mean what they say. No “extras,” which do not contribute to the quality of the smoke, are included in the price of Camels. Just the utmost smoke-enjoyment that modern science can put into a cigarette. : That statement was on the first package of Camels manufactured and has been on every one of the billions of Camel packages sold from that day to this. When it was first written, other cigarette manufacturers were giving away flags, pictures of actresses, pictures of ball players—almost anything that would make the smoker think he was getting some- thing extre for his money. The makers of Camels believed the smoker wanted a cigarette sold strictly on its merits, with all of its cost put into quality—a cigarette made' of such excellent tobaccos—so perfectly blended—so mellow—so fragrant—that it would win its own way.
