Board of Education; One of the fea-
lures of medical inspection in Orange
is the instruction in sex hygiene
given to young girls of u years and
older.
In 1911 the work was carried to
the grades and girls of l.
years of age and older were gathered
in groups Of not more than 30, and to
each group two talks were given.
These talks were very elementary com
pared with those given to the High
School girls. They began with flow
ers, then went TO birds and mammals,
teaching in a general way the law of
reproduction and the growth toward
ideal motherhood. The second talk
was on the period of puberty, care of
ones self etc, and the Importance of
pure thoughts and habits.
"'All the groups were intensely in
terested and always met the lecturer
afterward and asked many questions.
The whole attitude of the girls changed
from giggling self-consciousness to
reverence and silence. The work has
been most successful and will bear
fruit in the years to come. Thege
was slight opposition in one school
from a few parents. but most of them
were won over after attending a few
lectures
Yes, a few parents objected to this
instruction before they had investi-
gated and learned just what the in
Htruction was. / do not think that
any mother, and they are all welcome,
who will take the trouble to listen to
n of my talks to children will find
anything Objectionable.

have seen some of the published re-
ports; n | ear that you newspaper
men sometimes give circus measure

children had been removed from the
Lincoln Avenue School on account OF
my unfortunate efforts. An investiga-

DR.. Porter is deeply sensible of the
seriousness of her task and declared
II was one OF her appreciated privi-
leges to see children ripen into beau

she has in some measure contributed to
the result.
DR.. Porter. who is the physician to
the Orange schools, received the re-
porter in her Office in the lakewood
court.
OF course. we ALL she said, with
her expressive smile, agree upon one
point-that all fathers and mothers
want their children taught the best
thing for them in the best way. The
happiest thing in my educational work
Is that one sees children ripen into a
beautiful m~aidenhood or manhood, and
feels she has in some measure cor
tributed to the result.
We probably an agree upon another
point, and that is that at some point
at some time in a girls life, she should
be taught something of hygiene, es-
p~ecially Of sex hygiene. In fact, prob
ably the only point of difference is
concerning the time when this instruc-
ton should be begun, and even here, in

for the appointments is the shooting

court attendants, who at times are far
away from the desk used by the clerks.

remarked Fred Weimer. chief county
