citation, and is being installed in the
schools all over the state. It is a
system Of teaching practical personal
hygiene and home and community
hygiene and sanitation. Its aim is to
establish good health habits and 10
establish community interest in pub
lie health work. Through elements of
play and romance, and other appeals
suited to PHYSIOLOGY, it gives pupils
a motive needed for the practice Of
personal hygiene.
Under the crusade system pupils do
the duties which are explained in
books of physiology and hygiene
which are too often left undone. The
results sought by the School Health
Crusade are the physical, mental and
moral improvement of the individual
child and in their families, and the
awakening of a sense of community
public health responsibility
The certificate of enrolment states
that the boy or girl has agreed to try
to do the health crusade chores, to do
nothing that may hurt the health of
any other person and to help keep
home and the home town healthful
