SMOKE- WORDS
“HAVE A CAMEL
Did you ever notice that experienced smokers will offer o rask for a Camel—not just a
cigarette? A little observation will reveal Jhe overwhelming preference
for Camels—a popularity that has never been equaled in all the history oi
smoking.
More smokers demand Camels, because Camel is unlike any other cigarette made.
Camel is as different as the rare quality of goodness. This difference costs millions
to maintain. The choicest Turkish and Domestic tobaccos grown . *. the
most skilful blending—that is Camels. More cannot be had at any price
When you light a Camel, you may be sure you are smoking the best.
When invited to have the world’s favorite cigarette, accept with pleasure. It will b<
your personal introduction to the mildest, mellowest blend of choice tobac
cos ever produced. “Have a Camel!”

“THE ALASKA PRIMER”
At last! A textbook for use in the
Alaska schools written in Alaska by
an Alaska teacher. Miss Zoe Porter,
of Sitka, is the author. She received
the inspiration for such a work as
primary teacher in the Sitka schools.
The Alaska Primer is designed to
appeal to the interests of the child
through the presentation of stories
about birds, animals and general ac
tivities in his environment. The racen,
the gull, the eagle, the fish-hawk and
the clam are the chief characters in
the introductory pages. Succeeding
pages contain interesting stories, ori
ginal in character^ and carrying a
flavor which is quite distinctly Alas
kan.
That the book is constructed along
scientific lines is evidenced from the
fact that all of the 139 words of
Thorndike’s Essential Primer Vocabu
i lary are used—each word appearing
’ from ten to twenty times in order that
repetition may bring mastery. The
child who studies the book will have
acquired a reading vocabulary of 280
j words since this is the number of dif
ferent words used. New words are
' introduced at the rate of less than
1 three to each page.
The Primer is illustrated by Hilda
k Keel Smith, of San Francisco. It is
published by Harr Wagner Publishing
Company, San Francisco, and is listed
at 80 cents per copy with the usual
discount for schools.
