The Cigarette Evil.
Statewide Landmark.

Statewide Landmark.
The damage to boys and young
men from cigarette smoking-the
Impairment of physical and mental
health-is not realized by the gen.
eral public, and it will be some time
before anything serious is done in
North Carolina at least, to check the
evil. So long as the members of the
cigarette trust endow schools, col
leges and seminaries and give liber-
ally to orphans homes and hos
pitfalls and church and educational
causes; SO long as these gifts close
the mouths of preachers and church
people against this evil; and long as
prominent churchmen, men who
would faint at the smell of whiskey,
sell cigarettes and sell to the boys,
regardless of the law-so long we
say, as these things continue, the
cigarette is rather firmly entrenched
in North Carolina. But Lord! How
the world is given to hypocrisy.
