of cigarette smoking has been com

schools. From superintendent down
to the lowest room the dangers of
the little paper pipes is being thor

youthful minds. An inquiry has been
started by the teachers among their
pupils to find out the extent of smOk-
ing and the large number of the
smallest boys who admitted that they
INDUCED in the habit was startling.
Supt. Cox says that while the school
authorities have always sought to
break so dangerous a habit among
the pupils wherever it has been
known, the matter has come in for
more attention than usual since the
last session of the Northern Illinois
Teachers association at Rockford.
At that meeting much discussion was

schools are hearing from their teach
ers much of the evils which follow in
the wake of the cigarette.
