HERBERT QUICK TO-DAY ON:
SEX TEACHING.

Author of con Board the Good Ship
Earth" when Glory Ceased" etc.
/ know a group OF children who
came under the influence of parents
and teachers who were greatly inter-
ested in life and it's problems.
They roamed the fields with these
children and studied plants
They were brought at once into
contact with sex in plants. They saw
the pistils and stamens. They OBJ
served the wonderful processes by
which fertilization is accomplished.
They talked of the distribution of pol
len. They observed the insects carry
ing the principle from plant To plant
and they understood the marvel of
the impregnation of a kernel of corn
by the creeping up of the male cell
through the long silk To the germ in
the ear. They found that some plants
are self-fertIlized and some cross
fortified. 1t was a most interesting
and inspiring thing for these young
minds.
They learned without knowing the
same principle in birds and animals.
They came TO thing of sex as q
thing universal and dominant in life.
Tt came TO their minds i'm the cool
breeze which blows across the up
lands of scientific thought. There was
nothing impure about it: il was all
elevating and ennobling.
But there was no concealment of
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1914-01-23

the facts of sex. There was the freest
discussion. They learned what every
boy and girl must learn; but in the
right way. not by the nasty story, the
sinister hint. the sly inuendo, the
covert revelation which poison the
minds of so many boys and girls.
Few parents are capable of giving
such instruction as this: but that il
is the right sort of instruction there
can be no doubt. With these chill
dren, sex knowledge did not come in
mystery and the terror and tempta-
ton of the unknown as with many of
our boys and girls, bursting on the
personality like a storm. 1t came TO
minds prepared for it. 1t was no sur
prise. 1t was the dawn of a day, the
first glimmerings Of which began in
childhood
A girl and a young man were in a
class in biology in university. They
were studying the chromosomes in
plants, the union of which constitute
the fertilization of the pistillate cell.
Why" said the girl, lis the same
thing true in all living things?"
Yes, said the young man. in all
plants and in all animals, including
human beings"
The episode was as clean and
wholesome as the reading of a poem
or the admiration of a picture. 1t was
truth. not words of double meaning
or questionable insinuation.
