In the eight seasons of the camp,
2,783 boys, from sixteen cities in
Michigan, principally from Detroit,
have been given a ten to twelve day
outing in the country. The boys
are selected by the various social
agencies of Detroit and Ann Arbor.
This year, the Boys' club of De-
troit will send one hundred young-
sters up on the camp. That organ-
ization has contributed $2,000 to the
fund.
THE LARGEST University in this
country is Columbia with 35,000
students and 1,500 teachers. The
smallest is Buena Vista with 21 stu-
dents and a faculty of only 15.

see that health conditions about
the camp are suitable. Both asso-
ciate directors, Taylor and Hughes,I

Larus & Bro. Co.. August 4, 1928
Richmond, Va., V. S. A.
Dear .sir:
Going to take the pleasure and drop
you a few lines to say that my favorite
tobacco is your Edgeworth. I have
been a user of it for the last eight
years and find it's the only tobacco
for a real good smoke.
For the last five or six months I
have been trying several other kinds
but I find Edgeworth is the only
tobacco for me.
If I am smoking any other brand
my wife will tell me, as she likes the
smell of oily Edgeworth. When I'm
sMoking oftiers she opens all windows
and doorl.
The rea.o, for writing this letter
is that I h l:.a r-d party last night,
and most all of the party asked me
what kind of tobacco I used,
