i What Are The American People Thinking About Today? I What’s the important thing, QUALITY or Price? We'll hazard the guess, they’re thinking about quality and that's why the altitude ol the smoker is the important thing to every cigar manufacturer today. When a man is smoke hungry he is w illing to spend his money to satisfy his craving for a good smoke but he wants value received in his cigars the same as in every thing else and that is really thrift or economical buying, but the smoker must not forget that there arc manufacturering standards that producers cannot bring to a price level and this perhaps is true to a greater extent in the building of cigars than any other luxury or necessity When we first started to build “WHITE STAG” cigars we had onlv one idea THE BEST SMOKE IN THE WORLD OR ELSEWHERE AT THE PRICE, that’s why we have stuck to the QUALITY IDEA all the way through. We’ve put quality into “WHITE STAG” Cigars and we have talked QUALII \ in all our advertising and sales talks and let existing conditions lake care of the prices we had to charge our public to keep our Quality up. Now this is the message we want to gel over to you Smokers in away that you cant ignore:— ' ... Always, even in pre-war days, the “While Slag” cigar was really the biggest value al its old time “Nickel” price and with a practical evolution of lhe cigar manufacturing game caused by the change in prices of every item that goes into lhe upbuilding of a quality cigar from lhe leal tobacco grown m lields, lhe casts of handling same, labor and freight rales, all the various cost charges that the cigar box manufacturers, the lithographers, the importer even of Gum Atragcanth, our own sales and oyer head cost down to lhe increased costs of your Uncle Samuel's revenue stamp on lhe box containing lhe finished product, there is such an enormous increased cost of production that lhe standard price for a good smoke just like lhe "While Stag” fan is accustomed to will have to be fixed on the present standard of prices for whatever items of costs that can be lowered by increased efficiency in factory methods will in turn again have io be added to lake care of the increased revenue and increased import duties that will have Io be levied to provide income lo conduct the machinery of our government and lhe tobacco industry is the one that seems lo be lhe goal when our solans begin lo think of taxation and these costs now already are more than the traffic could bear, if it wasn't that lhe smoker seems always w illing lo pay his luxury taxes cheerfully because he gets so much comfort and solace from his smokes. ~v * i mao We want lo say this; we have bul one-aim, lo make our SMOKE SERVICE the best we can possibly give. Just one ambition—TO IMPROVE THIS HOWEVER WE MAY'. And with your co-operation Mr. Smoker there w ill be just one consequence, an effectiveness not otherwise possible and you Mr. Smoker will reap (he benefits in cigar comfort and V ou can rest assured that when heller cigars than the “WHITE STAG” are built, at any price, that WE’LL BUILD ’EM. Stick to the WHITE you’ll never get stuck. The White Stag Cigar Co.
