Smoking the
peace pipe
in wartime
A late report from an A. E. F.
veteran who found a can of
tobacco in his soldier mail

A late report from an A. E. F.
veteran who found a can of
tobacco in his soldier mail
1t was during the thick of things in
France that Gen. Pershing sent the
following frantic cable to Washington:
Tobacco is az necessary az food.
Send a thousand tons at once"
AS any ex-doughboy will tell you, a
thousand tons of tobacco distributed
over fighting force of 1000, 900 men
showed good intentions, but it didn't
fill the need-not by a few million
pipefuls.
Even today letters still come in
from veterans who have forgotten the
horrors of war and remember only the
thrill of ga real American smoke" in
France.
For one, Hugh Livingstone, Adju-
tant of Yankee Division Post, No.

Gentlemen:
My introduction to Edgeworth took
place over in the training area in France
under circumstances that left a lasting
impression of the good qualities of Edge
worth.
One night, after hard days work,
my bunkie drew package from home,
one of those mysterious affairs that might
contain everything but what you wanted.
After due ceremonies of guessing he
opened it and the first thing we saw was
the blue box of Edgeworth. All further
operations ceased until we filed the pipes.
After using the French tdbdc for several
weeks and burning our mouths and
throats to raw state you can imagine
how cool and satisfying that Edgeworth
tasted to us.
We smoked until we were ordered to
bed, and fell asleep smoking. You can
just bet letter went home for more
Edgeworth.
Since that time I have used about
every kind of tobacco that is put up, but
it is Edgeworth for me when can get it.
Thank you for putting such satisfying
and cool tobacco on the market.
Gratefully yours,
(Signed) Hugh Livingstone.
Probably any good American smok-
ing tobacco would have brought the
same JOY to Mr.. Livingstone and his

Of 80 to IL. 1t was an interesting
game from beginning to end, despite
the one-sided score. The visitors
equalled the locals when it came to
transferring the old globe from man
to man, however, being outclassed
when it came to fIinging the sphere
through the hoop. After taking The
ball down the court, the U. H. S.

passing by ringing the basket with
an uncanny eye. The game was
thrilling throughout.
The U. H. S. squad have been
crowned with victory in every game
this season, showing up in splendid
