Smoking
figures
released
More than three million of the
cigarette smokers in America today
are teenagers. And recent figures
indicate that more girls than boys
smoke cigarettes.
Teen-age females are more likely
than males to begin smoking, and
may be more susceptible to the
social pressures to smoke according
to recent studies.
Many health professionals believe
that the rise in female teenage
smoking can be stemmed by educa-
tional programs which concentrate
on teaching social skills and tech-
niques for resisting smoking temp-
tations.
In explaining why teenagers
decide to begin smoking, the Ameri-
can Heart Association points out
that young people both boys and
girls, usually begin to face pres-
sures to smoke between the ages of
12 and 14. This is an age when they
are moving away from their fami-
lies and closer to their friends.
Teenagers themselves suggest that
pressure from friends is a major
reason they start smoking. Most
teenagers who smoke are likely to
have friends who smoke.
The family is also a major influ-
ence on the smoking behavior of
children. Parents serve as models. t t

smoke. And in families where older
brothers or sisters smoke, there is
an even greater chance that the
younger child will acquire the habit.
Additionally, young people may
be influenced by cigarette adver-
tisements, which generally show
young and attractive people doing
interesting and exciting things.
What can be done in the family?
Smoking should not be allowed in
the home, and parents who feel they
have to smoke should not do so in
front of the children. In addition,
parents should ask other adults who
visit the home not to smoke.
Parents can also try to discourage
young people from smoking by sup-
porting school and community
efforts.

of my appearance. Nail length is a
matter of preference. However,
nails are safest when they are all
equal and reasonable in length. An
ideal length is when the nail tip
extends 's the length of the body
of your nail beyond the cushion of
your finger. The shape of your nails
should be rounded not pointed with
straight sides. This shape makes
the fingers look longer and gives
extra support to the nails.
