WANTED: FAR WEST RELIEF
Little Armenians, , q
Near East, Asia,
DeAr Old Friends:
/; No doubt you will be surprised to
, learn from me that the shoe is on
the other foot. It is now your time
to be charitable. It is up to the
"Near East" to help the "Far West"
We have no Turks to murder us, but
we have the republicans to keep us
busted.
i -. j !
Won't you. please look in your ward
k robes and linen closets and send us
some of our ohh clothes back ? Speaking
for myself. I could use that nica,
black, tailor-made overcoat my wife
sent you in 19 and 27, and if you
can spare 2 pairs of those woolen
'Song ones." I'll forever have a
warm spot near my heart for you.
And how about a ship load of 'dry'
gasoline? We heard that you had
struck oil 'in Iraq, and if you could
spare even 1,000,000,000 gallons of
gas to keep our Fords running a little
bit faster, you'd be doing us a
kindness that would never be forgot, j
If we can get enough help to keep
our cars a-going?and just a fewj
old clothes to last us till the next|
MJ.. 1 -ll-jegg5gttBB"ll 111 lit iLU '-L,?-jL.U gLXJu. - J -1??
election, we'll be all right. Please
speak to Ethyl at once about the
joy fluid.
Now, Armenia Pear: We folks
in' the south ain't in need of very
much help, but the Yankees, that is
?the rich folks up north, are gradually
learning how the gentle touch
of poverty feels, so send them some
stuff first, and after they are "relieved,"
you all may send us anything
you might have left. You
could put on a Big Drive for money
to send us and we wouldn't think
it amiss. That's what we did for
you.
You "Near East" folks recall how,
good we were to you during your
hunger and lamentation; therefore,
you should return tit for tat. We
sincerely hope that you will "go over
the top" in our behalf, and by all
means-?send some cash to Chicago
for the school teachers, and 'lest I
forget?1 wear a No. 0 shoe, a No.
7 hat, a No. 15 collar, and any sise
old clothes will fit me now?just so's
they will hang on. Assuring you
we are glad it is your "turn," we
remain.
Hungrily, yours,
Gee McGee.

Warning Against '
Bogus Checks
Atlanta, Nov. 20.?Merchants and
hankers throughout the territory
served by the Southern Railway
System are warned to be on the
look out for bogus Southern Railway
pay checks which are being circulated
by a clever operator, the first
one to be reported havin^TiwiFn
passed on a merchant at Knoxville,
Tenn., according to J. W. Connelly
of Washington, 1). C,, superintendent
of police for the Southern Railway.
The cheeks are carefully printed,
signed, countersigned, numbered an(t"?'
the amount filled in with check writing
machine. .Kfforts to pass such
checks will probably l?e mndo in other
cities, Mr. Connelly warns, with Saturday
as the favorite day so as to \.J|
delay discovery of the fyrud. Merchants
approached by holders of the
bogus checks are requested to notify
the local authorities promptly. Photographic
copies of the bogus checks
passed at Knoxvillq, have been placed
in the hands of every captain of police
on the Southern Railway System
and may be examined by merchants'
associations wishing to furnish their
members with full information as to
this fraud.

Have you noticed the new trend in cigarettes?-*
freshness is the popular thing. ,
That's because & fresh cigarette, as demonstrated
by Camels, is something smokers have discovered as
better than anything they ever tried before.
/ Camels are-fresh in the Camel IJiimidor Pack because
they're made fresh to start with ? blended of
choice, delicately mild, sun-ripened tobaccos in which
the natural taoisture and fragrant flavors are vigilantly
safeguarded.
The tobaccos in Camels are never parched or toastecT
? the Reynolds method of scientifically applying heat ,
. guarantees against that. j
That's why we say with so much assurance that
Camels are truly fresh. They're made fresh ? not
parched or toasted ?and then they're kept fresh in
the Camel Humidor Pack.
V
Try Camels' freshness for a change. Switch over f? ~
for just one .. day, then change back ? if you can.
