Excerpt from The Modern Health Crusade: A National Program of Health Instruction in Schools; Manual for Teachers, Superintendents and Health Workers
When boys and girls, in all states of the Union and in foreign countries in three continents, take up the systematic performance of health chores, a phenomenon is presented that invites explanation. The health chores have of themselves no attraction for the average child; they are to him odious duties, performed only under social or parental pressure.
Good reasons for doing hygienic duties are set forth attractively in the modern type of school text-book. N 0 set of facts to be learned in school has greater value, but usually the pupil fails to translate this knowledge into his own conduct except under outside influences. Education among us consists too much in telling and not enough in training. The Modern Health Crusade brings into the schools a distinct influence serving to reinforce established courses in hygiene, physiology, physical training and sanitation. It does not conflict with such courses but adds vitality.
