MEMORY CORNER,
Il is josl around from ihe little street
NX'here maple irees in the suiiinier uie-i,
And many go down to visit there,
But it is always sweet an.1 lair,
To sit in the shadows and hear ihe song
Thai drifts all the green, sweet summer long.
Memory corner and Lovely lane,
Where the dreamlul shadows go hy;
And life comes hatk lo its youth again
In the sweet of Jimelitiie sky.
(Jtiaini, grave meetings take place, indeed,
There at the corner, w here hearts are freed
l'rom sin and sorrow and grief and care,
And days that were beautiful come tuck there
To dance and sparkle as once (hey did
In the tender memories long since hid,
Memory corner, where old men meet
And dreams so sweet to know
Dance down upon their shadowy leel
l'rom llie days of long ago.
Heart of the world, you, too, sometimes,
Cease your thunder of war and crimes
And go there whither the old and y. uug
Have Hocked with solemn or merry tongue!
'Twill do you good to see how Mow
The thought of men lo ihe long ago,
Memory corner, where evermore
The honeysuckle is sweet,
And hearts go down to the dreams ol yore
Where the past and the present meet.
Is it Possible to Legislate
Life and Brains?
Swift & Company is
primarily an organization
of men, not a collection
of brick, mortar, and
machinery.
Packing Plants, their
equipment and useful
ness are only outward
symbols of the intelli
gence, life - long experi
ence, and right purpose
of the men who compose
the organization and of
those who direct it.
Will not Government direc
tion of the packing industry,
now contemplated by Congress,
take over the empty husk of
physical property and equipment
and sacrifice the initiative, ex
perience and devotion of these
men, which is the life itself of
the industry?
What legislation, what politi
cal adroitness could replace such
life and brains, once driven out?
Let us lend you a wift "Dollar."
It will interest you.

If you want to know what rare and
unusual enjoynu-nt Cami'lh provide
smoke thorn in comparison with any
cigarette in tlie world at any price!
CAMELS are a cigarette revelation any
wayyouconsiderthi'tTi! Tiike quality,
or refreshing flavor and fragrance; or, that
wonderful mellow -m ild - smoothness you
never before got in a cigarette urnoke! Yet
Camels are so full-bodied and so t'ull-uf-satisfaction
you marvel that ao much de
light could be put into a cigarette!
Camels expert blend of choice Turkish
and choice Domestic tobaccos makes them
so irresistibly appetizing! And, the blend
explains why it is possible fur you to smoke
Camels liberally without tiring your taste!
You will prefer Camels to either kind
of tobacco smoked straight!
You'll realize pretty quick, too, that
among the many reasons you smoke Camels
is their freedom from any unpleasant ciga
retty aftertaste or unpleasant cigaretty odor!
Once you know Camels you won't
take much stock in premiums, coupons
or gifts! You'll prefer Camel quality!
