Prof O'Shea Smoking robs pupils
OF their docility. Records of pupils
who acquired the smoking habit after
they entered high school show that
not only did they become harder to
manage but the quality of their
school work greatly declined. Many
high school principals declare that
from so to so per cent of high school
boys are now using cigarettes. Most
boys learn to smoke, not because
they like to, but because other lads
smoke.
