w. G. T. u. WAGING
WAR ON CIGARETS
Opens Publicity Campaign at State
capitai-Sore Provisions of Anti
Tobacco Law Little Understood.

DIES MONIES, Dec lit is prob
able that the w. c. T. U. will wage
war on the cigarette in all parts of
Iowa. The war is already on in Des
Moines and local cigar dealers have
given up the sale of the pills. They
were appraised that the county attor-
ney was going to bring action against
them unless the anti-cigarette law was
obeyed.
In Des Moines the women's organi-
Zation is conducting publicity cam
paign against the use Of cigarettes.
Articles are being given out to the
press, printed excerpts on the law are
being distributed and speakers are
going into the high schools and col
leges to talk against the evil.
Some of the provisions of the law
which are being especially called to
the attention of the public are the
following:
Boys under twenty-one years OF
age prohibited by law from smoking
cigarettes in public places unless ac-
companied by their parents.
Use of tobacco by any student Of
the public schools is prohibited by
law.
1t is prohibited by law to sell or
give away tobacco to minors under
sixteen years Of age except upon the
written order of parents.
If any reputable citizen of the
county makes oath before magis-
trate that he has cause to suspect the
illegal sale of cigarettes or the distri-
button Of them, the magistrate will
forthwith order search warrants is
sued, the guilty persons apprehended,
the confiscated cigarettes destroyed
and tax of $500 shall be levied
against the owner Of the property
wherein the same was found.

A quarter of a thousand persons
e ,Joyed the fine vaudeville program
generously donated by Proprietor
s chenck for the benefit of the Assoc

itneater of the Amusement Park last
Thursday evening.
Z Talent of very high order was
displayed to the audience by the per-
