“Care and Feeding of
The Baby” is Best Seller
On USNS Gen. Eltinge
SEATTLE, (/P)—A sharp-witted
civilian used the Army’s first re
turning rotation troops from Ko
rea to solve a disposal problem
of six year’s standing, aboard the
U.S.N.S. Gen. LeRoy Eltinge.
James D. Murphy, of Seattle, in
charge of the Navy transport
ship’s exchange, had three dozen
pocket size books on the “Care
and Feeding of the Baby.”
The books had been on board
since 1945 when the Eltinge was
transporting military families.
They were a drug on the market.
Then Murphy eyed this trip's*
homeward bound GI’s, had an in
spiration, hung up a sign and sold
out every book in less than an
hour. He had the books out of
sight, and handed them over to
the buyers—after he'd collected
the money.
What did the sign say?
“Reealing Story on Sex.”
Children may tear up a house
but they never break up a home.

Another Reason Why
You’ll Prefer Budweiser
Do you know of any other beer whose
label proudly tells you what that beer is
made of?
Here’s the Budweiser warranty. . .
choicest hops, rice and best barley malt
... brewed into one of America’s finest
genuine lager beers. That means that
Budweiser is not once, but twice fer
mented . . . aged much, much longer
than average. The result is the distinctive
taste that has made Budweiser the
world’s most famous beer.
MILLIONS HAVE MADE THIS TEST
. . . Drink Budweiser for five
days. On the sixth day, drink
another brand of beer. You’ll
want the distinctive taste of
Budweiser thereafter.
