WISE OLD CROWS. For over 90 years crows built their nests in branches of a towering old oak in Glamorgan, but recently the birds moved to another tree. A few days afterwards the ancient oak fell with a crash like thunder, amid a series of triumphant caws from the crows. It seems that birds, having a higher temperature than man, are more sensitive to many things and often show a remarkable sense of danger with regard to trees. Most people experience the same thrill of satisfaction as these wise old crows when events prove the sagacity of their forecasts. Many a man now smoking Blue Shield (Medium) or Red Shield (Drk) who has persuaded a friend to do likewise knows how pleasing it is when the friend tells him later “You were absolutely right!” “Just as you said it would—Blue Shield (or Red) suits me down to the ground.” One of the reasons for the popularity of these tobaccos is that they are toasted to a turn which develops their natural goodness and even further improves a really good, satisfying and wholesome smoke. Blue Shield (Medium) and Red Shield (Dark) are obtainable everywhere in 2oz tins, 1/7, and onepound canisters.
