Among the scores of letters re-

was one received some time ago from
Edward E. Preble, written at the
Preseidio at Monterey, CAL, in which
he speaks of the work Of the Y. M.

"The Y. M. C. A. people are very
good to us soldiers, giving us par
ties, entertainments and moving pic

have fixed up a swell set Of club
rooms for us boys, too. Also, the

CIGARE1 QUESTION
and THE RED CROSS

Numerous protests have reached
the Northern Division headquarters
in regard to the inclusion of cigar
cts and tobacco in comfort kits made
for the soldiers, the writer's believ-
ing that many boys not babitual
smokers, will become so, due to the
apparent encouragement of an or
ganization like the Red Cross.
J. T. Gerould, director Of the de-
partment of development for the di-
vision, explains the stand Of the Red
Cross on this matter. "The great
majority of our soldiers" says Mr..
Gerould, ''are smokers. They derive
great enjoyment from the use Of
tobacco. To deprive them of this
pleasure just because they have Of
fered to give their services and their
lives, If need be, to their country
would be working a great hardship
upon them, hardship that would be
an addition to the hundreds they
have already to bear.
ANY boy old enough to bear arms
for his country and who has not
yet yielded to the temptation of to-
bacco is likely to be strong-willed
enough not to begin it's use now
simply because limited quantity of
tobacco Is furnished him by the Red
Cross. 1t is more likely that he will
give the tobacco that thus comes to
him to some comrade who is user.
"The Red Cross makes no apology
for it's stand in this matter. We be-
lieve men of minds mature enough
to make soldiers have determined
whether or not they shall be smok-
ers. For those who have decided in
favor of the use of tobacco, we be-
1ieve we should give what little lux
ury we may"
