Snuff dipping, smoking and chew
toe tobacoo by boys and eirls as
young as four years old and the
prevalence of tne nabit among
rural children in the Somh At
lantic States and the Appalachian
region are so common that re
markable fig ares gathered by pub
lio health officials and published
in a recent bulletin have a 1m it-
ted ly made but little impression
on the investigators. The obser
vations were made by Dr. 0. W
Stilei and S. B. Altmsn, of the
public health service, and the
facts were gathered in connection
with investigation of the hook
worm disease.
Out of 96 boys and 83 girls, a
total of 179 children, the most of
them attending seven schools in a
certain county in a South Atlan
tic State, 18 boys and 18 girls ad
mit the use of tobacco in one form
or another. In some of the cases
the use of tobacco by children was
advised by family physicians.
They and the children's parents
believed snuff and tobacco would
prevent anemia, paleness they
termed it. Tne paleness was
found by the government investi
gators to be a manifestation of
hookworm.
The insanitary life of mat y
rural people is blamed for a great
deal of this use of tobacoo among
children. The following quota
tion from the investigators' re
port sums up the conclusions of
the experts:
"Snuff dipping and tobacco
chewing by ohildren are, however,
such everyday observations with
us in our work that they make
no impression on us. We view the
habits as based upon a thoroughly
rational explanation, traceable to
conditions that existed years sgo,
and as dependant for their de
crease upon a social evolution
which involves an improvement
in the ssnitary life of hundreds ot
thousands of people. It will take
at least a school generation to
eradicate these widespread habits
from among the rural schoolchil
dren of the South, and until the
lives of these ohiidren are made
happier by better sanitary sur
roundings we are not inclined to
begrudge them the little happi
ness they seem to find in the use
of snuff and tobacco, or to criti
cise them in the slightest for these
habits."
Atlanta, Qa., May 23. An ar
raignment of the "tendencies of
the time" was contained in the
report of the committee on nar
rative presented today before the
Northern Presbyterian Assembly
in session here. The report de
plored the "distressing loss of
membership in many Synods of
the Church."
Nearly 4,000 Churches during
the past eoclesiastial year failed
to secure a ne member through
confession of faith, according to
the report. Other unusual fea
tures brought out were that some
