Ao smoking is allowed in any of the office* of Lever Bros., Ltd., whether in London or in tlie provinces, and Viscount Leverhuhne on Tuesday expressed the , opinion that the man who smoked before 11 o'clock in the morning, would not do a quarter of a day "s work. He j spoke of the prevalence of smoking in ■ Government offices, -and said others j smoked because the chiefs in those , offices smoked. It appears that among e the Government offices where me re are no rules against smoking arc-'the War f Office, the Foreign Office, the Homo; * Office, the Admiralty, and the- S-cort:?!; . f Office. The liberty has been extensive- . , ly conceded since the war. in Govern- r merit and other offices.
