SEX HYGIENE IN The
Schools IS PUZZLINC
ADV AGE or INCREASED
KNOWLEDGE FOR CHILDREN
IL PROBLEM,

There has been considerable dis
cusslon on the question of teaching
sex hygiene in the public schools The
advantage Of increased knowledge for
the children. as well as the practical
difficulties of presenting this subject
properly have been commented on
from various points Of view. There
has been little effort, however, to Sc
cure an expression Of opinion from
those Vtally Interested namely, the
parents and the children themselves.
For this reason, the report OF the Bu-
reau of Research Of the Upper PEN
nsula (MichiEan) Educational asso-
citation, recently issued, is OF interest.
This bureau was organized to make a
direct study Of the schools Of the
Upper Peninsula Of Michigan, their
equipment and their methods and ma
teral for study. 1t is at present en-
deaVuJIng to discover the points of
strength and weakness of the schools,
as judged by the parents and others
intert sted in them The report just is
sued is divided into four sections.
moral education. physical education,
industrial education and general. The
basis for the report is the individual
opinion Of 3l7 representative citizens.
other subjects discussed, the question
was asked of parents "Do you believe
that sex hygiene should be taught in
the schoOls?' To this question, 90
replied yes" while 175 opposed such
instruction; six made qualified re-
plies Commenting on these answers,
the report says that the replies indi-
cate that patrons of schools are not
ready as yet to have sex hygiene
taught in the schools. Doubtless but
few teachers are qualified to teach
the subject well" says the report,
land 60 teach 1t poorly would be much
worse than not to teach ii at an The
bureau also endeavored to get the
point Of view of the pupil. AT HOugh-
ton, two lectures on sex hygiene were
given to boys and two to girls. Some
time after the lectures, the boys and
girls were segregated and were asked:
Did you learn anything of value at
the last lecture on sex hygiene?"
Ninety boys stated that they had
learned something Of value and eight
that they had not, while fifty-fOur
girls regarded the lecture of value
and twenty did not. When asked:
"DO you favor another lecture p"
eighty-five boys were in favor Of fur
ther instruction and thirteen were OPP
posed to it, while forty-four girls were
