Whatever difference of ojtiBiom there may be among scientific phycicians concerning the effects of tobacco in moderate use by adulte—and, alee, a lot of doctors emoke!—there Is no di vision of mind upon the qucKBtlon of the harmful influence tobacco in youth. Indeed, this ic not a queelion of opinion, but ef fact. It is a well eetabliehed fact tlsat the yevth, that is, the lad under twenty-one, who In- dulgee in tobacco in any fcrni Is physi cally and xncnteily weakened by the narcotic. This kae been thereughly demonstrated by an extended seriee of tests of the side by Dr. BRIGHT EYES, A CLEAR BRAIN, A HEALTHFUL BODY or A Physical, Mental, Moral Wreck? Cigarettes In Youth Make the Differ- enee. Seaver, Physical Director at Yale, and various other authorities; and on the mental side by Dr. Bueh, Profee- eor of Physiology at Vermont, and numerous other students. A youth, in reaeonably good health, requires no stimulation, and he can lia endure the aettion ©f a narcotic sev eral times a day. To the narcotic in fluence of tobacco may be assigned, we think, the well grounded prejudice againet the cigarette, in popular epia- iea.

Parents too frequently aeqmiesoo In the tobacco habit or fail to enact tho stricteet pledge from their growing boys. A father may smoke if he wlM; hie character is formed; but he should never forget that his boys are etill plastic, and much more subject to ex- tcrnal Influences than to the good in fluences of the home, in these modem times. Twenty-one yeare ought to be the minimum age at which a youth might indulge in tobacco. Twenty-five years is young enough for most men to take up the weed. Our laws are toe lax in this respect, A boy is a boy un til he has become a man in every sense of the word, and it is the dis grace of eivlillzatlon that so many of our boye are physically, mentally and morally tainted before the age of man hood is attained.

Here is a service mothers may do for their growing boye. A mother’s appeal will reach the heart and skull of any son. Let every mother exact from her boys a solemn pledge not to smoke until twenty-one, and those boys will be glad of It when they are old enough to know enough to appre ciate a good mother. misfits, who have not found them- selves.

Bad Teeth Indictedt Is it true that bad teeth cause rheu matism? Should tonsils that get sore occasionally be removed? Answer—Tee. Bad teeth cause many things Including loss of sleep, beauty, dis position and money. According to Osier decayed teeth is a medium for infection of rheumatism and tuberculosis. Dis eased tonsils should invariably be re moved, especially if there is a family tendency to deafness, tuberculosis or rheumatism. But for an occasional en largement 'with simple B*'re throat, re sulting from careless personal hygiene; and where the family hlstoi^ is good the advice of a good specialist should be sought before considering an operation for removal. Men’s Christian Association building on the appointed evening. Self-Dissection Applied There were a few crisp, bright speeches to the same purport as the leaflet which Oscar still carried in his pocket. These leading citizens told the boys they were on hand to help. Then he joined himself to half a doz en fellows he knew, and they were asked to go to a table in the reading room. Similar groups were seated about other tables. In Oscar’s hands, as in the hands of the rest, was plac ed a “Self-Analysis Blank,” and he; was told cheerfully to “go to it.” The questions were pungent. He glanced over a few, and recognized that if he should tell the truth he would put a speaking likeness of him self on paper. Here are some of them: 10—How did you happen to quit school ? i J 16—Do you do any kind of study ing now? 21—Do you have habits which you think hold you back from success? 24 Can you easily or with difficulty make your mind stick to a particular thing at a particular time? 27—Can you make a strong finish, 01* do you quit easily? “Mr, Pearson,” Oscar asked humbly, “do I have to finish this all tonight?” Pie had worked, wiiii pSrspiratipn; for an hour before he ventured the ques tion. “Oh, no. Take it home if you like and have another try at it some even ing when you are not busy.” The Biggest Men Ready to Help Boys A week later Oscar came back, his question sheet filled out and already filed. There was another jolly supper. E*~ch business man had now about four boys assigned to him. Oscar hap pened to be the third in Ms squad, so he was asked to go again into the who retires to bed at 10 instead of 12 saves the heart of 876,000 foot-pounds a year.

Among the men who had volunteer ed to meet the boys were a lawyer, a physician, a master mechanic, an au tomobile expert, an artist, a newsp^ per man and a score of others—a sort of informal Rotary Club. Oscar hap pened to be assigned to a contractor, a successful man, who, like most of the other counselors, was himself '' father. ^ ., Now For Personal Guidance The contractor, Mr. Shea, had read Oscar’s report carefully, and for near- y half an hour he put him through a good-natured “third degree” to check him up,” as he said. It was a shrewd searching diagnosis. It left Oscar still more humble, but also hopeful. Then he hurried on to the answer to question 38: “Are you willing to sacri fice a little present pleasure to fit yourself for better things in the fu ture?” Oscar had put down here an uncompromising “Yes,” and had un derscored it. Mr. Shea was pleased at this, and in his friendly Irish brogue said to him, “Me boy, that s the best wor-rd on the sheet. If ye’ll do that, we’ll make a man of ye.” Oscar Wakes Up The upshot was that Mr. Shea spoke a good word for Oscar at the shop, and Oscar was shifted last week to I room where he can start in as a .egular apprentice. He has already taken up some evening studies and subscribed for a magazine on shop mechanics. Once a week he drops in either at Mr. Shea’s office or house, and they talk things over.

Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy This is not only one of the best and most efficient medicine for coughs, colds and croup, but is also pleasant and safe to take, which is important when medicine must be given to chil- dJen. Many mothers have given it their unqualified endorsement. Our greatest struggle with Germany is yet to come, after the war is over, Germany places every one of her sons for life. We let ours drift. Hence we are a nation of jack-at-all-trades. We need to nationalize vocational guidance. But we need even more to localize it. Before we adopt it every where, we must learn how to work it somewhere. What better place to start than right in our own home town?
