The sale of cigarettes to minors
will be dangerous proposition in
Ardmore if the crusade already start
ed is maintained, and there is no

day a prominent citizen of the city
wrote to the superintendent of the
city schools, calling attention to this
fact and since that time many others
have joined in the crusade to put an
end to the traffic, One prominent
attorney in the city stated this morn

limit of the law anyone caught selling
to minors and the following
communication was received by mail
