XN “\ BI OF FLUFF”

by M.L.D.

I had just finished reading - ~ 8 movie magazine about the forthcoming production of the “Hucksters” ...and it brought to mind that book's symbol of worldly success, This badge of know-how, this mark of the “man of distinction” (in the book) . was a solid gold DUNHILL CIGARETTE LIGHTER!

I wondered, were I a man, headed for Hollywood and riches, could I procure such 8 lighter here in town?

1 didn’t wonder for long! There they were, lying side by side on Strauss tobacco eounter, right inside the - front door,

There were two discreet patterns, (both working like a charm, of course) and, standing there, looking at them, I realized that I was being impressed.

Yes, if a man held a solid gold Dunhill to the tip of my cigarette . . . be he fat, or ‘thin, or meaner than sin +++ I would be impressed.

Doggone the fleshpots, anyhow!
