Excerpt from School and Industrial Hygiene Again: the food and sleep of the child are mainly beyond the control of public schools. They are not wholly so, however; and it is a teacher's duty to discourage working in improper hours. Still more imperatively is it his duty to regulate the child's needs in school-time, to see if he is faint from want of food. To encourage and teach good habits, and to give opportunity for bodily exercise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Crowley's Hygiene of School Life When asked by the Publishers either to write a new book on School Hygiene, or to re-write Dr. Crowley's book, the choice was not far to seek. Dr. Crowley foretold so accurately the lines on which School Hygiene has developed in the last few years that the outline provided by him has required but little extension; in fact, to several of the chapters slight alterations only were necessary. A new chapter, however, was needed on the work of the School Medical Service in relation to Juvenile Employment. Mr. Edward Brown, the Superintendent of the Bureau of Physical Welfare in New York, has been instrumental in obtaining for me information with regard to the United States, whose admirable work in the sphere of medicine applied to Public Health has not received in this country the study it merits. I am indebted to Dr. Forbes and Mr. Gilbert Simpson for looking over the re-written chapters on Infectious Diseases and School Building respectively; several other friends and colleagues have afforded valuable assistance.

Excerpt from The Health of the School Child The papers here reprinted are offered as a contribution to the practical side of the medical inspection of schools. In every civilised country the doctor and the school child are coming closer together. In Scotland, no less than in England, the interest is widespread and intense. This must be my apology for the present papers. The first paper was read at a Congress of sanitary administrators, official and unofficial. The second was read at a Congress of the Parents' National Union, where the majority were in a position to choose for their children the best education afforded by our present-day schools. The third was read before the Royal Society of Edinburgh, by whose kind permission it is now printed. On all three occasions, I found, as indeed in many places elsewhere in Scotland, that the Royal Commission on Physical Training (Scotland) and the Committee of Physical Deterioration had aroused the minds of every class of the community to the importance of personal hygiene in schools. The medical supervision of school children appeals to every class of the community. It is responded to by every class. It is no longer a topic for special pleaders.

Excerpt from The Hygiene of Instruction: A Study of the Mental Health of the School Child One of the by-products of the World War has been a new interest not only in the health of the body, but the health of the mind as well. The evident need for sound physical health was called forcibly to the attention of our people by the extensive rejection of recruits as unfit for military serv ice, while the numerous and serious nervous disorders of returning soldiers, and the very important work which has been done in the ree'ducation of the victims of shell-shock.

Excerpt from Hygiene of Women and Children In this book passing references only have been made to general sanitation - just to point out how general sanitation affects the individual. The next development of the whole subject of Hygiene was along certain special lines - the hygiene of the child at various ages. Thus, the school medical service deals with the child of school age, the infant welfare work started on the infant after birth, and spread backwards to the mother and onwards to the child of school age. As a whole, the subject had arisen and had of necessity been dealt with, as it were, in sections of the community. Again, we have the special arrangements for dealing with tuberculosis and venereal disease, all on communal lines. A community is, however, made up in the aggregate of families, and these of individuals, and it is to the individual and the home that attention has been directed in this book. After all, it is to the individual that we must come in the end for any concerted effort. General public health measures will only carry us a certain way - they must be the first step - but the final step must be by the individual. It has been well said that people can be made neither healthy nor sober by Act of Parliament. Acts of Parliament are, however, essential in dealing with the impediments which prevent individuals from working out their own salvation, but they cannot effect this.

Excerpt from Health Work in the Schools Educational hygiene has four chief divisions: (1) The Hygiene of Physical and Mental Growth; (2) Health Supervision in the Schools, including methods of health observation and teaching; (3) the Hygiene of Instruction; and (4) the Hygiene of the School Plant. The first of these divisions has been treated by one of the authors of this book in The Hygiene of the School Child, which has appeared as an earlier number of this Series, and the third, by the same author, is in preparation. The fourth division is to be covered by another author, and is also in preparation. The present volume deals with the problems in volved in health supervision, health examination, and hygiene teaching, in other words, with the second of the above divisions; and it is hoped that it will con tribute materially to the standardization of health supervision and to the broadening of its scope. Every one must realize that a great amount of what goes by the name of medical inspection of schools can be called health work only by courtesy. All along the line, among superintendents, teachers, school nurses, school boards, and even school doctors, education is needed which will lend a broader vision to the purpose and possibilities of genuine health supervision.
