THE REAL UNKNOWN SOLDIER
Child Of Streets, Picked Up by Kind
hearted Brothers, Never Knew
Who He Was.

Tragic though the story Is Of sol
der whose identity was lost after his
life had gone out on the field of battle
and whose cross in Flanders simply
says, unknown Soldier" his story Is
not shot through with such pathetic
glory as is the story Of lad who
never knew who he was and who gave
his life for a country in which he had
never known a mothers love or a
fathers pride. Every mother who
does not know just where her son is
hurled, weeps over the grave of the
unknown soldier, thinking that per
haps he is her son. Over the grave of
the boy who has always been I'M
known there are no mourners.
A tiny bundle of humanity was
picked up in Baltimore street some
twenty years ago; 1t was baby boy.
When after a thorough search, no one
was found who would claim him, he
was taken to be reared by two broth
ers, who gave him the name of Ed
ward John Evangelist Smith. When
he was old enough, they sent him
to Mount Saint Mary's school to be
educated. In 1917, before the boys
education was finished, a Marine re-
cruiting officer visited Mount Saint
Mary's. His story of the country's
need for men caused smith," as he
had come to be known, to enlist. He
went overseas and took part in every
engagement In which the Fifth regi-
ment of marines participated. On the
morning on which the armistice was
signed, one of the last German bullets
flying claimed "SmIthy" as its victim.
Wells Hawkes., "Smithy's" captain,
has started fund to erect monu-
ment to "Smitny".

was also mentioned. "In fact" leave
me out of it altogether" he said. "Glve

Try a pipeful

Not that it will be any better than
the Edgeworth you buy in store, but
we want you to have your first Edge
worth smoke at our expense.
You may repay us by finding that
Edgeworth just suits your taste. And
II it doesn't-for there are some few
men to whom Edgeworth is not just
the thing-there's no harm done.
We are glad enough to send free
samples in the same spirit that we'd
hand you our pouch if circumstances
permitted. We wish it were possible
to save you even the little trouble Of
writing for Edgeworth.
Edgeworth is likable smoke. Men
who have tried it and found it to be
the right tobacco for them never
think Of smoking other tobaccos.
They'll tell you there are many good
tobaccos-and there are. And when
you offer them your pouch with
stranger" tobacco in it, they may
use up pipeful just to be friendly.
But notice how quickly they get
back to their beloved Edgeworthl
Day after day Edgeworth fans write
to us. They tell us human little
stories, friendly anecdotes centering
around Edgeworth. Often it is the
number Of years they have smoked
Edgeworth that prompted them to
write.
