All diail is placed on the north bound train that passes through College Station each morning at one-forty-nine and is routed at Hearne. The mid-nite mail service has long bean popular with a great number of fttudenta who prefer to write their letters during call-to- quarters but it is highly probable that some of the underclassmen are not familiar with it. Mail leaving on the night trains arrives at its destination from twelve to twenty-four , hours sooner than it would if it were mailed the fol lowing day. Moon says that the service may be fully depended on because it ia taken up every night- except during the three holiday periods of the year and just before those holiday* announcements to that effect are made in the mess hall. It is true that the fair sex commands a great portion of the late mail but parents come in for their share too, Moon said.

We believe that even the shredding of the tobacco...und the quality of the paper it’s rolled in, have a lot to do with the even-drawing, mild smoke that people enjoy in Chesterfields. You can bank on this...every method known to science is used to make Chest erfield a milder, better-tasting cigarette that satisfies.
