One thing a soldier is afraid at
is a display of emotion. That’*
why his slang so often sounds de
rogatory. For example, he refers
to the silver eagles on his colonel’s
shoulder straps as “buzzards."
But when he speaks of his favorite
cigarette, he says: “Camels.”
They’re first with men in th«
Army as well as with Sailors, Ma
rines, and Coast Guardsmen. (Ac
cording to actual sales records in
service men’s stores. ) A gift of a
carton of Camels is always well
received. Local tobacco dealers
are featuring Camel cartons te
send to any member of our armed
forces. Hint for the day: Send
“him” a carton of Camels.—Adv.
