Help! Cigarettes,
Too, Says W.C.T.U.

ALBANY, Jan. 20.--Now that Ma.

the W. G. T. U. will turn its atten-
tion to cigarettes, gambling and pro
family. So announces Mrs. Ella A.
Boole, Vice President of the Nation.
al w. G. I. u and President of the
New York State Branch Of that or
ganization.
"The fight against the cigarette, >
admitted Mrs. Boole, will be harder
than that against gambling, swearing
and other evils, because many womer
as well as men indulge in cigarettes,
Gambling will doubtless take 9
new lease of life during after-war
reconstruction. We must therefore
be extremely alert from this mo-
ment on. We must drive against
profanity which, like its brother in
crime, gambling, is going to become
more prevalent than ever as result
of the war and wartime associa-
tions."
