This was no easy task. And here let me say in passing that in the choice of a lecturer mere technical knowledge on the part of the speaker will not suffice. Something more than a knowledge of physio- logy or pathology is required here. Before you can get the open ear of the mother the question must be lifted into the realm of the ethical and spiritual, else she will have none of it. In America we call this "the Children's Age"; we are beginning to see that the children of to-day are the citizen...s of to-morrow, and in this whole question of social purity and sex hygiene we have been made to realise that the child is our objective point of instruction. But we are compelled also to realise that between us and the child stand the parents and the teachers. We recognise that the natural and proper teacher of the child in a thing so intimate as sex, at least in its earlier years, is the mother. No matter how good a father a man may be, or how willing to do his part, his relation to the child can never be so intimate as that of the mother ; upon her therefore devolves the teaching of the child.
