CEREAL AND CARTER ADS PINNED
ON VIRGINIA'S HISTORIC MANTLE
Arlington Folks Think Biuboards Like Price Tags
Stuck on Coat Tails of Ghosts of Lee
and WashingtOn.
and Washington.

Arlington County, Va, wrapped in
a mantle of hallowed historical asso-
Citations, is all worked up over the
fear that it's mantle is going to be
obscured by an outbreak of bill
boards.
1t seems that the visitors who VEN
ture into the county to derive inspi-
ration from the sacred scenes where
Gen. Washington, Gen. Lee and other
nota bles worked or lived come away
instead with a firm resolve to hold on
to that sohoolgirlish color, to use
nothing but cigars that are toasted.
and to end carbon troubles forever by
using Nox Carbonica, the New Motor
Fuel.
Try as you may, the Arlingtonites
claim, you cannot sneak up on the
county from any of it's entrances
without being confronted by belliger-
ent signboards. One hardly has left
the shores of c. orgetown behind him,
en- route to Arini ton Cemetery over
the Francis Scott Key Bridge, before
he finds himself surrounded by con-
fusing advice as to what to drink,
what to fill his gas tank with and
what battery to buy for longevity
purposes.
