They taste grand and they’re as smooth as can be on my throat. I suppose Luckies get along so well with my throat be- cause they’re what you call a light smoke. I like them—and I'm glad to put it in black and white.” 57l CO-STARRING WITH GENE RAYMOND IN FORTHCOMING RKO RADIO PICTURES’ “THERE GOES MY GIRL” An independent survey was made recently among professional men and women—lawyers, doctors, lecturers, scientists, etc. Of those who said they smoke cigarettes, more than 87% stated they personally prefer a light smoke. Miss Sothern verifies the wisdom of this pref- erence, and so do other leading artists of the - radio, stage, screen and opera. Their voices are their fortunes. Thats why so many of them smoke Luckies. You, too, can have the throat pro- tection of Luckies—a light smoke, free of certain harsh irritants removed by the exclusive process “It’s Toasted”. Luckies are gentle on the throat.
