Benton’s pitching was a marvelous
exhibition of elifsive shoots and baf
fling slants. He allowed only one sin
gle after he was sent to the mound,
and whifffive batters. He also bat
ted 1 000. Had the Shriners used him
to begin with the result might have
different, but such is baseball. Both
first saekers. Bailie and Rindewald.
played a nifty game. Bindewald
starred on free passes, being compli
mented on every trip to the plate.
A splendid attendance witnessed the
exhibition. The game was staged for
the benefit of the Salvation Army, and
it is believed that organization will
realize a nice sum.

Everything for
Homing hr show
THAT’S OUR IDEA in making CAMELS the
Quality Cigarette.
Why, just buy Camels and look at the package! It’s
the best packing science has devised to keep cigarettes
fresh knd full flavored for your taste. Heavy paper out
side—secure foil wrapping inside and the revenue stamp
over the end to seal the package and keep it air-tight.
And note this! There’s nothing flashy about the Camel
package. No extra wrappings that do not improve the
smoke. Not a cent of needless expense that must come
out of the quality of the tobacco.
Camels wonderful and exclusive Quality wins on merit
alone.
Because, men smoke Camels who want the taste and
fragrance of the finest tobaccos, expertly blended. Men
smoke Camels for Camels smooth, refreshing mildness
and their freedom from cigaretty aftertaste.
Camels are made for men who think for themselves.
