Under his direction a study was made of the use and effects of the so-called "pep" tablets which are ballyhooed to so stimulate the student that his powers of attention, concentra­ tion, and retentiveness will be greatly improved. Intelligence tests were given to a group of students, some of whom had taken the pep pill while others were given only sugar pills. The scores of the two groups were similar enough to prove that the tablets in no way stimulated mental activity. Such drugs are habit- forming, and despite a momentary up­ lift, they are definitely inferior to a good night's sleep.
