One can feel powerless seeing the fullpage advertisements promoting cigarette addiction continue to stain the pages of the North Coast Journal (June 10), even when several community members have expressed their disappointment in these pages. It is time to take local action to counter this intrusion into small-town life in Humboldt County.
