Everybody 'is going. —adv. Anp CAMELS are easy to smoke. Here’s smoke with joy in it—a light- hearted cigarette—merry and mild. Don’t confuse Camel’s mellow mildness with mere flatness or lack of flavor. Every bit of delicate aroma in Camel’s naturally mild, sun-mellowed tobaccos is preserved by scientific care in manufacture—kept in Camels for you to cnjoy. And you can smoke them all day with never a hint of throat discomfort. Mild —not flat. Modern smokers are awake to that difference. They're swinging to Camels, and the mild fragrance of a cigarettc made to be enjoyed. 1ds [ © 1930, R. J.
