New Yorkers awoke one morning to
find In their breakfust headlines the
news that a zealous park employee had
discovered signs of disintegration on
the surface of the city’s most treasured
antique—Cleopatra's Needle. Photo-
graphs revealed that the monolith was
peeling, large pieces of sandstone hav-
ing fallen from the tall shaft, carrying
with them part of the prized hiero-
glyphs.
London’s twin sister of Cleopatra’s
Needle was reported as resting com-
fortably and endurlngly on the hanks
of the Thames, and the rival port won-
dered whether a preparation would be
found to stay the attacks of their
harsher climate.
Such a preparation was soon forth-
coming. A new paint combination as
a preservative for stone was Invented

"My dealer was right
—they do satisfy!”
There’s more to a cigarette than “pleasing
the taste." Other cigarettes, besides Chester-
fields, can do that.
But Qhesterfields do more —they begin
where thL^est of ’em stop/ Because Chester-
fields “touch the smoke-spot,” they let you
know you are smoking—they do SATISFY!
There you have it—SATISFY. It’s all in
the blend—a blend of fine selected TURKISH
and DOMESTIC tobaccos. And the blend
can’t be copied.
That’s why it’s Chesterfields or nothing if you
want this new thing in cigarette enjoyment!

"UNTHINKABLE”
SAYS DANIELS
Secretary of tho Navy Nonpluaad at
Criticism to Y. M. C. A.—Proved
Harolam.
Tho war work of men In the uni-
form of the Red Triangle who follow-
ed tho flag wherever It went proved
their heroism and devotion on the bat-
tle front and were always present to
serve and comfort the American fight-
ing men. say* Josephus Da id eta, secre-
tary of the navy, will remain an en-
during monument to the Y. M. C. A.
“It Is unthinkable,” he declared In a
letter to the “Y” war worh council,
“that Briticism of minor defects here
and there a ho aid be allowed to cloud
for a moment the splendid record made
by this great association.”
Hi* tetter, recently made public by
the Y. M. C. A., follows In part:
“Only those who were brought In
Intimate contact with It, and could sur-
vey the whole field, are able to appre-
ciate fully the great extent and value
of the Y. M. C. A.’s work for our sol-
diers and sailors. In camps and train-
ing stations, at home and abroad, at
the fighting front, on transports and at
naval bases, it cheered and aided oar
fighting forces. Its halls and hats
were not only social centers, furnish-
ing wholsssls recreation and amuse-
ment. bnt were places for mental Im-
provement and moral refreshment.
They were bits of America set on for-
eign soil, reminding the boys of the
homes from which they came.
“The men of the Red Triangle fol-
lowed the flag wherever It went, and
were there to serve and comfort our
brave boys. They proved their hero-
ism and devotion on tbs battle front,
a number being commended for brav-
ery. and several sacrificing their lives
In the line of duty.
“It Is unthinkable that criticism of
miner defects here and there should be
allowed to cloud for a moment the
splendid lecord made by this grant
aasoctatton. No big undertaking was
ever carried out without some Imper-
fections; and no organisation engaged
kt such a stupendous work, employing
sa many men over a vast area, could
expert to carry It through without
making soap mistakes. Bnt so far
as I have beeq able to determine, these
have been few and hardly enough to
to cenaMerad 10 comparison with tha
magnificent service rendered.
