PHONES:
to propose reasonable alternatives. But if no con-
body politic when he utters disapproval of men or
measures that seem to him to merit disfavor.
The "destructive" criticism, when sincere, In the
long run may also fairly be called "constructive,"
It contributes to public opinion, the sovereign power
which transcends all party lines, all individual opin-
ion, and whether right or wrong. Nevertheless it
constitutes the system of Control to which we owe
our fortunes and freedom.
Those newspapers that professionally tear down
rather than construct sometimes serve best. They
can be fair about it.

Impatience ?
No. It's jangled nerves
Are you the kind of wide-awake,
"on-your-toes" person who hates
to be kept waiting?
Then you should be doubly
careful about jangled nerves.
If you find yourself nervously
crackling your newspaper—drum-
ming your fingers on the table—
COSTLIER TOBACCOS
jumping at unexpected noises-
then watch your nerves.
Get enough sleep—fresh air—
recreation. And make Camels
your cigarette.
For you can smoke as many
Camels as you want. Their costlier
tobaccos never jangle your nerves.
The president nf th" University of
Southern California says that n colleg:-
freshman has about one-half the vo-
ahulary of a common laborer.
"Swell", he says, is used to detcrlb
4972 situations. But what n different: -
a few years make, when the numbe-
of situations described is doubled.
TUNE IN!
Camels are made from liner, MORE EXPENSIVE
TOBACCOS than any other popular brand of cigarettes 1
