Business Spirit Of Wilson.
There IS mucn IN environment. The
Ware Kramer Company is fortunate
in it's location in the progressive town
of Wilson, the leading tobacco town
CT Eastern North Carolina. It's growth
in the past ten years has been the
marvel of the State, and it is chiefly
due 10 the pluck and practical wisdom
Of as progressive a set of business men
as can be found in North Carollfa.
When the men who own the stock Ill
the Ware Kramer Company decided to
establish this cigarette factory there
were no Jeremiahs to shake their
heads and predict failure. Instead
Cne strongest men in the community
gave words of encouragement and
nope, and expressed faith in the sue
cess of the enterprise. they took
stock in money and put in their faith
and cooperation All wilson Is
proud Of the success that has already
been attained and believes that what
has been accomplished is but an ear
nest of what will be done within the
next few years. The Wilson people
believe that the Ware Kramer Com
pany will DO more TO make the town
of Wilson famous throughout the
world than any other of the strong en-
terprises that bless the town.

the realization of dreams and the

South--faith that its men can build
Up great manufacturing enterprises as
well as men of other sections. There
are always plenty of folks who look
only to great cities for great enter

lima has proved that many of the in
situations and enterprises that have
done most for the State were born in
the brain Of few men Of clear vision
and sound sense, perhaps in a small
village or town. who knowing their
capacity 10 make something the world

strong and successful company, and
its product, white Rolls" cigarettes,
is meeting with success every where.
because of the genuinely good quality
OF the cigarettes. The trade de-
mands the goods, the smokers call for
them, and success is the deserved
premium which has come to the

Lead Because of Quality.
The Ware-Kramer Company has
demonstrated what men VINO know
their business can do, even in an en-
terprise which many have thought
closed to competition. No independ-
ent factory could have, without wait
ing a day, marched TO q leading place
in the markets OF the world IL their
product had not been of SO superior
a quality as to win the approval and
patronage of the best Judges of an eX-
cellent cigarette. The men at the
mead of the Ware-Kramer Company
are practical men whose experience
teaches them what the people demand
and what the trade Will handle.
Moreover their factory is situated in
the town of Wilson. the largest bright
yellow tobacco market in North Car
DINA, and they have the choice of the
market for picked leaf. The soil
around Wilson is noted for the ex-
cellence of it's tobacco for cigarettes.
SO much SO that Japanese and English
and other foreign buyers are DESTROYS
of gett''~ the fine quality grown In
that Eastern North Carolina belt for
the manufacture of their popular Gig
arettes. Being on the spot, of course
the Ware Kramer Company gets the
oest OF the leaf and as they know all
about tobacco from Alpha to Omega,
they will have none but. the best for
their factory. That is why in Will
son, in Raleigh in New York, in De-
troit, in San Francisco, in China
everywhere that men smoke cigarettes.
the cigarettes bearing the name of this
valuable firm have already become
popular and why those who try them
are so delighted that they take pleas

things they have found. A man who
loves to smoke a cigarette, like a
man who loves TO read a good book.
s never satisfied until he lets his
friends share his good fortune by
Fdking a smoke or enjoying the story
that delighted him. And that is one
.reason why the Ware Kramer Gig
arettes did not have TO watt FOR wears

stepped right into popularity because
their peculiar excellence made them
welcome TO the best connoisseurs in
the world of smokers.
