nr. ana Mrs. ram rsachi of Woodville discovered an appropriate note in their backyard on Nov. 15, the day of the Great American Smokeout. A postcard, tied to a balloon that had bunt and fallen onto their lawn, read: “I don’t like smoking because it lolls you and gives you cancer. It’s very dangerous to your health.” The note was signed by Sue Allen, Grade 4, North Franklin School, Washington, Pa.

MI was aware of the day. That’s why I thought this was so newsworthy,” Mr. Bachi said. He added that he thought it was particularly interesting that the balloon landed so closely to Washington, Va.

There was no date on the postcard telling when the fresh-air message was launched. Mr. Bachi promptly returned the postcard to the school, however.
