of Our Girls" She said:
zone of the most grievous problems
of the day is the lack of development
of our girls. Our school system so
crowds the child as to divert to the
brain those energies which should go
to it's physical upbuilding. From
these nervously developed mothers
the child becomes an invalid from
childbirth. While the body is in
process of development the brain
should be rested.
at is not possible to produce per-
fectly developed body and compass
an education in the short period of
twenty years. Owing to the strain
upon our girls during the years of
physical development we are creating
a race of women incapable of produc-
ing normal children.
IF you are to have race of strong,
symmetrical and capable men and
women you must modify your school
system. Dull children in our schools
up to the age of 13 and Ia very often
develop into the most brilliant stu
dents after that time. Nature has
been developing the body during
those years of apparently intellectual
dullness."
