PHYSICIANS EN- DORSE TOBACCO FUND FOR THE
 SOLDIERS
Medical Journal Says Smokes Tide Youths Over Nervous
 Strains.

The medical fraternity en- dorses the scheme to supply the boys at the front with tobacco. This is what the Medical Journal has to say about the plan:
 Some clergymen object to the distribution of tobacco among the soldiers at the front. It is hardly likely they will carry any weight with the authorities. The intense nervous strain imposed by the conditions at the front in the present war requires that everything possible should be done to allay nervous irritation.
 Amusements for the men when relieved of duty at the i'm mediate front are recognized as an important facter in prevent ing neurosis. Many of the men in the army are confirmed smokers, and to deny these men tobacco is to induce a high de- gree of nervous irritation which will materially initiate agains.. their efficiency.
 It would be the height of fol- ly, both from medical and a military standpoint, to deny to- bacco to the men at the front" !"
