st: long local macro with line break

Hi Statalist,
In my do file, I'm putting a line break (///) for my local macro but I got a syntax error at the line break.
local ctlist2 ""Composite Index" "Life Expectancy" "Injury Death" "Cancer Death" "Spent 30%+ Income on Rent" ///
"Preventable Hospitalization" "Poor or Fair Health" "Obese" "Current Smoker""
Is there a way to avoid this error?
Thanks.
Lin
