RIGID INSPECTION
HEADQUARTERS CO
Emergency Call On Fire Alarm
Signal Cause of Hurried
Assembly
High Ranking Officers Present Monday
Evening

The Headquarters Company of the
43rd Division, c. n. G., was given one
Of the most rigid inspections since il
was organized. Monday evening. Dur
ing the afternoon the files, papers and
equipment of the company were gone
over thoroughly. In the evening the
personnel of the command was closely
scru.inized by the high commissioned
officers here for that purpose. While the
inspection was rigid IL was none the
less successful. II Is not customary for
the inspecting officers to make any re-
port or comments TO local officers, but
il is believed that the Putnam Head
quarters Company stood the test TO the
credit 81 its officers and men.
Emergency Call
At half past seven o'clock ten
strokes were rung in on the fire alarm
by Chief Ralph +. Thurston. This is
an emergency signal for the assem-
bling of the Headquarters Company.
None but Captain j. j. McGarry and
Chief Thurston knew that the signal
was going TO be sounded. Most of the
citizens thought that the call was for
a fire outside the city limits. A few
firemen rushed TO headquarters
believing that il was Box and the
signal was confused. Box is the Day
himball hospital and this was cause
for more that usual concern to those
who believed II was double alarm
from Box 8.
From all parts of the city the MEM
bers of the Headquarters Company
hurried TO the Armory. The response
to the call was considered successful.
At the armory some two or three
hundred people gathered as Captain
McGarry had given public notice, that
the citizens would be welcome Monday
night to watch the inspection of his
command. At the roll call all but one
man, a new member who has obtained
work outside of the city, were pre-
ent or accounted for.
The inspection was thoroughly con-

CIGARETTE FAvoRiTE
Chesterfield Shows Record Increase
OF 300 Per Cent

From seven billion smoked in 1922
to twenty-eight billion smoked in
I927-sales doubled and redoubled
all within five years. These are the
startling figures announced by the Lig
gett a Myers Tobacco Company for
their ever-popular Chesterfield Cigar
cite.
This amazing growth, representing
gain of 800 percent, signalizes not
only the universal preference for the
cigarette as the smokers choice, but
the acceptance Of this one particular
brand as the popular favorite.
Ii is conservatively estimated that
Chesterfield has acquired at least a
million new users in a little over a
year-certainly convincing proof that
finer quality and better taste Is subs
tantially recognized by the cigarette
smoking public.
This genuine testimonial for good
tobaccos and good blending is based
largely on Chesterfield's particularly
pleasing flavor and taste. As il is
stated in the advertisements, Ches-
terfields are mild and yet they salts
fy;" in other words, the flavor has
been so skillfully balanced as 20 elimi-
nate any suggestion of harshness or
bite. and yet leave enough richness
and body to "let a smoker know he's
smoking"
Nor is Chesterheld's rapid growth
limited to the boundaries Of the
United States. Sales reports have re-
vealed that this brand is worldwide in
its acceptance, as shown by the fact In
practically all the principal cities Of
the world ii is found TO be among the
leading sellers.
: In fact, Chesterfeld's worldwide
recognition has given rise to another
new advertising slogan which truth
fully asserts that "the sun never sets
on Chesterfelds popularity"
the added distinction that Such popu
larity must be deserved" because OF
a taste and quality which won smok
ers the world over and will continue
to win them because il is what they
want.
In current advertising, LigRett 4
Myers is making strong use of then
oft-repeated platform. in which
they declare over their signature thai
it is their honest belief "that the 10
baccos used in Chesterfield CiRaret
ties are of the finer quality and hence
of better taste than in any Other
cigarette at the price"
