The period of the guarantee having expired, the University authorities in January, 1926, en- quired whether the University could count on the continued support of British Members of the Chamber, A girqular letter was therefore isound to enlist the sympathy and support of former, and possibic future, subscribers, a full state- ment of the University position being 'contained in a letter from the Vice-Chancellor, copies of which were sent to all British members of the Chamber.
Up to the beginning of March, 1020, subscriptions amounting by some thousands of dollars had been promised in response to this appeal. and the Cunimitten of the Chamber fakes, this opportunity of acknow- Jedging the support thus far-received and of urging British, members who have not yet responded to do sú if at all possible.

A perfect blend of three fine tobaccos Of course the exact tobacco ratios of
the Chesterfield land are a cher- inbad secret.
But any tobacco man can tell you that you blond Virginia, Turkish, and Ken- tucky Burley in anywhere near the right proportions, you can secure mildness with- out flatness, richness without over-richness, and, “body" without harshness. How esantly this has been calculated in the Chesterfield blend may be judged from the fact that last year in the United States, the sales increase of Chesterfield was twice that of all other cigarettes combined.
Obviously, "much popularity mu desorved."
