[Sidenote: School Nurse Instructs]
Miss Morris, a fourth grade teacher, called together the mothers of her
pupils and asked a trained nurse who lived in the village to address
them on sex hygiene. After the talk, Miss Morris said: “The subject just
discussed is a most important one. I shall be very glad, indeed, to make
reports to any mothers whose children, in my judgment, need attention
relative to this subject, if it is the wish of the mothers here present
for me to do so.”
A vote was taken and the mothers thus expressed their desire to have
such help as the teacher could render. Thereafter she felt perfectly
free to go to them whenever it seemed necessary to discuss this great
subject, so pertinent to a child’s welfare.
