thru the Alaska Game Commission.
This bear is one of the rarest of all
North -American mammals, living
only on the mountain glaciers of
the McKinley National Park, never
coming out, and successfully elud
ing hunters. I.t is a close relative
of the black bear, according to Dr. j
William M. Mann, zoo director, but
is larger and, in its native habitat,
actually blue in color. This is pro
bably a color change brought about
to adapt the bear to the blue back
j ground of the mountain ice. which
! has become hereditary. Against
' the ice it is almost invisible, which
[ isone reason for its security from
; hunters. In captivity it retains a
bluish tinge to its fur, which some
j times becomes quite marked in cold
; weather. The first of these bears
I ever brought out of the Mount Mc
Kinley region ca -,e to the zoo in

but that does not explain why
folks everywhere regard Lucky
Strike as the mildest cigarette.
The fact is, we never overlook the
truth that " Nature in the Raw
is Seldom Mild”—so these fine
tobaccos, after proper aging and
mellowing, are then given the
benefit of that Lucky Strike puri
fying process, described by the
words—"It’s toasted”. That’s
why folks in every city, town and
hamlet say that Luckies are such
mild cigarettes.
