SIGNAL CORPS MEIERS
. TO OPEN RADIO ROAD
Members of the local Signal Corps
office today began work to open
up the Radio Station Road so that
they can get the Anny truck thru.
The heavy snowfall and the light
travel to the Radio Station this
year has caused the road to be
blocked by snowdrifts which may
have to be shoveled out before the
truck can pass.
The main purpose of opening up
the road is to allow the Army truck
to get through with “grub” for the
Signal Corps watchman, Wilkes,
%vho is on duty at the station.

FLIP OPEN a pack oi Chesterfields! Help yourself
t«> u cigarette . . . Light up ... and let’s get the facts.
Mister . . . you’re dead right. They’re wilder! And
when the cool, fresh Chesterfield smoke hits the taste
spot — there’s no question about it... they do taste
better!
Its no secret in tobacco circles that Chesterfield
buys the finest tobaccos that grow . . . Turkish and
Domestic . . . sun-ripened, mellow, pure!
Chesterfields are blended first... then cross-blended
. .. to make them milder ... and milder still! There’s
no mistaking that rare balance of flavor built up by
Cross-Blending. You enjoy it in every fragrant puff!
Even the cigarette paper is different. Cleaner,
whiter, tasteless . . . the purest that money can buy.
Listen, smokers.. . this is straight. You can't put
taste in a cigarette ... unless quality goes in, too.
You can taste the goodness in Chesterfields . . .
actually tell the difference. But light up ... and con
vince yourself.
