M: Excuse me, madam.
W: Yes?
M: I wonder whether you’d help us. We’re doing a survey on smokers’ habits. Would you mind…?
W: Well… I’m in a bit of a hurry actually.
M: It’ll only take a few minutes. We’d very much appreciate your help.
W: Well all right. I can spare that I suppose.
M: Thank you. You are a smoker.
W: Yes I’m afraid I am. My husband is too. As you can see… I’ve just bought the week’s ration.
M: Would you describe yourself as being a heavy smoker?
W: Heavy… no. I wouldn’t call three packets of twenty a week heavy smoking. That’s not even ten a day. No… a light smoker. My husband… he’s different…
M: Yes?
W: I get in twice as many a week for him. He smokes twenty or more a day.
M: You wouldn’t describe him as a chain-smoker…?
W: No… he’s not as bad as that.
M: Right… Thank you Mrs…?
W: Trump. Doris Trump.
M: … Mrs. Trump, you and your husband smoke cigarettes I see. What about cigars or a pipe? Does your husband smoke a pipe?
W: Oh he’s never smoked a pipe. He’s the restless, nervy type. I always associate pipe-smoking with people of another kind— the calm contented type… As for cigars I suppose he never smokes more than one a year—after his Christmas dinner. Of course I only smoke cigarettes.
M: Right Now let’s keep to you Mrs. Trump. When and why—if that’s not asking too much—did you begin to smoke? Can you remember?
W: Yes… I remember very well. I’m thirty-two now… so I must have been… er… yes… seventeen… when I had my first cigarette. It was at a party and—you know—at that age you want to do everything your friends do. So when my boyfriend—not my husband—when he offered me a cigarette I accepted it. I remember feeling awfully grown-up about it. Then I started smoking. Let’s see now… just two or three a day… and I gradually increased.
M: I see. That’s very clear. Now… Might I ask if you have ever tried to give up smoking?
W: Yes—twice. The first time about six months before getting married. Oh, that was because I was saving up and… yes… I used to smoke more in those days. Sometimes thirty a day. So I decided to give it up—but only succeeded I’m afraid in cutting it down. I still smoked a little…
