Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home and School Reference Work, Vol. 9: A Library of Practical, Authoritative Information Drawn From Every Department of Human Knowledge Teachers and parents recognize the difficulties confronting writers attempt ing suggestions in this field. All right minded people will, however, agree to the following statements: The welfare of our country is inextricably bound up with that of our children; the welfare of our children is profoundly influenced by their knowledge of problems peculiar to this subject; consequently, no apology is needed for including this field in our mental survey as one suitable for our Observation and one concerning which fruitful suggestions can be made. Cer tainly in no field is there more need of loving counsel. Until very recently, it has been strangely neglected, yet it touches the very life of our nation. Fortunately, a change in thought is now noticeable. It is clearly seen that what nature has made Of such vital importance cannot by social convention be made common or unclean. Parents see more clearly where their du ties lie; teachers, also, are being urged to do what they can, within reasonable lines, to convey needed instruction. A number of states have already enacted laws that make it the duty of teachers to take up this work, in at least its broad, general lines. We have therefore pre pared the following suggestions touching this delicate subject, and ask for a sym pathetic consideration Of the same. They are not as full as many might wish, but we feel that those with a heart to under stand can profit by their consideration.
