When it?s Christmas Epe-a1d the glisten-
ng tree $ ready and trimmed 7pith gifts and to)s-when the peace and good cheer of Christmas almost here
 -have Camel!

WHEN the happy work of Christmas Eve is done. And the clock calls the approach of midnight. When the gifts and toys are in their place on the children's tree-haye Camel!
 For to those who think of others there is no other gift like Camel Camel makes every great day greater, increases the gladness in giving, makes life's anticipations brighter. Before Camel no cigarette ever was so good. Cames are made of such choice tobaccos, are so skifully blended, that they never tire the taste, or leave d cigaretty after-taste. Into the making of this one cigarette goes all of the skill of the largest tobacco organization in the world.
 So on this Christmas Eve, when your work for others is done-when you're too glad for sleep with thoughts of tomorrow's happiness, oh, then-taste the smoke that every day brings contentment to so many millions. Know the mellowest mildness, the most rich and fragrant taste that ever was put into d cigarette.
 Have Camel!

At the same time, the George

NEW YORK, March IL
Football, which manages to cling
to the spotlight with tenacity
for q goodly part Of the entirs
year, will have its dying gagR
this week until the opening Of
another season. The rules COM
mittee meets here this Friday
and Saturday to 60 over the
various suggestions -both weird
and otherwise which have been
made for the betterment Of the
game.
It is expected that this years
rule meeting will make fewer
changes in the game than any
of its predecessors have done.
There is the strongest sort Of q
feeling that football is a pretty.
fine game as it is, and what
changes there are will probably
be minor ones, such as moving
back the kickoff and changing

THIRD TONSIL CLINIC
GREAT SUCCESS


On July 9th and 18th on the third
floor of the Merrill Dayton Building
was held the third tonsil Clinic of the
past six weeks conducted by the
Barbour County Health Association.
DR.. o. S. Gribble of Clarksburg, the
Surgeon operating, and DR.. Irons of
Dartmoor. All pronounced it even
greater success than the two Pre-
ceeding Clinics.
The rooms were arranged in true
hospital style, the equipment was all
that could be desir 4 IN every way,
and the several trained nurses in
charge and capable women of the town
assisting made it possible to perform
the work in a most efficient manner.
Miss Munson til County Health
Nurse, had Mrs Mitchell, Mrs. Sutton
Miss Bird and MI Forney TO help
with the nursing.
Forty one patients in all were oper-
ated upon and at the last report were
progressing nicely. This gives total
of almost one hundred children
strengthened to 60 out to fight lifes
battles because the health association
got behind and worked. It is hoped
that when the tuberculosis C!intics
open at some near future date, much
more of the same enthusiasm, effort
and appreciation may be shown to
bring greater JOY of Health to our
weaker county folk.
