WELCOME HOME

COROMANDEL FUNCTION TWO RETURNED SOLDIERS At the dance held in Coromandel last Friday night, Driver Jack Chappell, recently repatriated from Italy, and Sapper Wenzlick, were extended a warm welcome home by Mr C' C. Rae on behalf of the Inter-Zone and Patriotic Sub-Committees and the people of Coromandel. “For They Are Jolly Good Fellows,” was followed by three hearty cheers. Driver Chappell thanked Mr Rae and everyone present for the welcome accorded Sapper Wenzlick and himself, assuring them that it was good to be back home again.

The late Dr. Richardson, whose dream (it didn’t come true!) it was to found a sort of “City of Health” in England, was no smoker, and disapproved of tobacco, yet he admitted (like Huxley) that it was “no worse than tea.” Well, for that matter, there are teas that are probably far “worse” than any tobacco! And if you haven’t had to drink them you’re lucky. It’s purity that counts in both cases. Depend upon it, the famous “toasted” tobaccos, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold and Pocket Edition, won’t harm anyone. They owe their great) popularity to (1) their uniform splendid quality; (2) expert manufacture and skilful blending; and (3) the toasting of the leaf which does so much to free them of excess of nicotine and make them what they are—the finest and least harmful of all tobaccos. The ever-growing demand for them is proof positive of their outstanding merit. But in order to avoid worthless imitations buyers should insist on having the brands already enumerated.
