WISDOM IN POPULAR
EDUCATION
There has been in many cities and
towns during recent years a general
extension of our popular education,
especially in. the higher grades. Many
of these innovations have been mani
festly wise and calculated to further
strengthen and popularize our public
school system, as, for example, the
establishment of high schools for
boys where mechanical arts and prac
tical commercial education may be
acquired, so that on leaving the school
the boys will be fitted to successfully
enter the ever-broadening fields of
mechanical and business activity. So
also we have in some of our cities
high schools of practical arts for

girls, where, in addition to a thorough
course in domestic economy, compre
hensive courses in millinery, dress
making and art designing offer op
portunities for young women to pre
pare themselves for successful main
tenance in vocations that afford ex
cellent opportunities for skilled work
ers. In some of the grammar schools,
courses in shorthand, bookkeeping and
mechanical industries such as type
setting have been acceptably introdu
ced for the benefit of those who are
unable to continue through the high
school.
There are other innovations how
ever, that have materially lessened
the popularity of the public schools
and whose value is far less obvious.
Indeed, some of these are open to
very grave objections. They lessen
the sense of responsibility on the part
of a parent at a time when leading
thinkers everywhere are admitting
this failure on the part of parents to
be one of the chief, if not the prin
cipal cause of the very evils com
plained of in our young.
Tho attempt to introduce sex hy
giene affords an illustration of what
we have in mind. The nation-wide op
position to this and other recent inno
vations shouldn't be ignored by those
in charge of our popular education.
Prominent statesmen, educators and
even some physicians of national rep
utation have recently sounded warn
ings that call for serious considera
tion. Take, for example, the out
spoken protest of Governor Dunne of
Illinois, in which he declared his con
viction that the teaching of sex hy-
giene in the schools "will induce ra
ther than suppress immorality and
unchastity." Governor Dunne was
educated in our public schools and is
naturally desirous of promoting pop
ular education, but in his protest he
says: "I honestly fear that if sex
hygiene be taught in the schools and
young boys and young girls in the
open classroom are made aware of
things which may be taught in the
line of sex hygiene, it .may create,
and probably will create, in their
young minds a purient curiosity, which
will induce, rther than suppress, im
morality and unchastity."
That the Governo voices the senti
ment of a very large number of high
ly .intelligent citizens is indicated by
a volume of other recent protests
from statesmen as well as educators,
clergymen and physicians.
