A recent film on occupied France depicted a Frenchman throwing away a cigarette end.. A man in the audience recently escaped from France exclaimed: “We’d never do that in France." Every cigarette end in France is carefully nreserved, and cigarette cases of a new kind have made their appearance with a drawer for ends. A writer in “Le Journal” complains that in a recent packet of tobacco he found, included in the net weight, bits of wood, small pieces of string, a shoelace and a lock of hair, which he says he carefuly chopped into small pieces and smoked in his pine. He wonders what other ersatz he is going to find in other packets ho may buy.
