IT S ALL A MATTER OF TASTE
They're all the rage with college kids/

S I speak of Lucky Strike!
Barbara Bennett
Lawrence College
When you come right down to it, you
smoke for one simple reason ... enjoy
ment. And smoking enjoyment is all a
matter of taste. Yes, taste is what counts
in a cigarette. And Luckies taste better.
Two facts explain why Luckies taste
better. First, L.S./M.F.T.—Lucky Strike
means fine tobacco ... light, mild, good
tasting tobacco. Second, Luckies are ac
tually made better to taste better...
always round, firm, fully packed to draw
freely and smoke evenly.
So, for the enjoyment von aet from
tie ilappy-Go Lucky. Get a pack or a
carton of better-tasting Luckies today.
