SUMS ARE EHENLY
DEVIDED ON HER
The sailormen at Bremerton are
about evenly devided as to the suit
ability and desirability of reindeer
meat as a regular dish for enlisted
men. The tests were concluded last
week but no official announcement
has as yet been issued.
Sailorman talk on the subject:
‘‘Say you rookie, you don’t know
what’s good,” said one oldtimer with
four “hash marks” on his sleeve.
“Yey, I know alright,” replied the
rookie, “they’re using every way they
know to get rid of this stuff.”
“Well, if you don’t like it I’ll eat
it,” chimed in another. “Gimme yours.”
“Oh can that stuff,” said a coxwain.
"While the argument was at its
height, one well groomed young sailor
whispered to the reporter:
“You know, they put some reindeer
A-1 meat and nothing else in the
Frye.Bruhn Meat Market.
meat in the chili and I couldn't taste
the chile.”
The reporter departed.
The tests were instituted under the
aupices of the United States Com
missioner of Education after the de
partment of the Interior approved an
appropriation providing that 1,200
ponuds of reindeer meat be shipped to
Bremerton Navy Yard for tests.
If the tests are considered success
ful and reindeer meat wins a place on
the Navy’s ration menu, it might pro
vide a market for the thousands of
reindeer thriving under government
protection in Alaska.
It is estimated there are 631,000
reindeer in Alaska. x

SCRIP BOOK EXERP5
(By "Babe” Hayes, Cordova)
George B. Smith, Dayton, Ohio: —
‘I am still giving my lectures on Alas
ka. People here are very much inter
ested and think our pictures are very
beautiful. They are colored and show
up very nicely. About two weeks ago,
after I had talked about an hour and!
10 minutes on the pictures, which I
was showing to the Delco-Light Girl’s
Club, a man in the audience got up
and asked permission to speak: He
gave his name as Rev. Zinn and stat
ed that he had lived in Alaska for
three years, in Nome, Valdez and Sew. j
ard. He wanted to say that every
picture I had shown was truthful as
to color and description and that every
statement I had made with reference
to Alaska was the truth. We all
want to come back and that very
soon, so you may find us coming your
way again at no distant date.”

IF YOU could take an adding-machine and
se down all the qualities you*demand in a
pi, tobacco, such as fragrance, coolness,
mildness, satisfaction, when you pulled the
ir , the total would read: ''Prince Albert.”
Y a prove it with a pipe and a tin of P. A.
Yhr >w back the hinged lid and revel in
thai aroma of the world’s most popular pipe
i 3 -Co. Put a load into the bowl of your pipe
light up. Draw that cool, refreshing
smoke deep down and exhale slowly. That’s
n\
\
Prince Albert! That’s living! You’ll go to it
from breakfast to bedtime.
Prince Albert leads all other brands in sales,
because it leads in satisfaction. The word
"satisfaction” has worn a litde thin from
much use, but a pipe and P. A.^ give it an
entirely new meaning. You’ll say so on your
very first pipe-load, and you’ll be a Prince
Alberteer after that!
—no other tobacco is like it!
