Excerpt from Primary Lessons in Human Physiology and Hygiene for Schools On the other hand, the pupils are led incidentally to observe some of the most apparent phenomena connected with the life processes - the action and uses of the bones, the muscles, the skin, the heart, the lungs, the brain. They are shown the importance of wholesome food, healthful exercise, pure air, and temperate habits of living. They are induced to learn, partly from direct instruction, partly by observation, why one course of action is conducive to health and happiness while another leads to discomfort, sickness, and perhaps an imperfect manhood or womanhood. The effects of alcohol and tobacco in weakening the bodily powers and diminishing one's chances for success and long life are explained in a simple, and yet forceful, man ner. In the preparation of each of the lessons, the author has constantly asked himself these questions How much of this subject ought young children to know? How much of it can they wisely comprehend? What direct use can they make of this information to the betterment of themselves, both now and later in life? He has occasionally permitted himself to repeat some important statements more than once, but in a different form, to the end that the facts may be the.

Excerpt from First Book in Hygiene: A Primer of Physiology In these lessons for young children simple language is used in the presentation of such facts about the structure of the body and its functions as are necessary for clear and definite knowledge of the general laws of health, including the effects of alcohol and narcotics. This book is for the use of pupils just beginning to learn something of the care the human body requires in order to insure the full enjoyment of health. The value of a primary book upon any subject depends both upon the language used and the varied forms of appeal to the child's mind, in order that his interest may be aroused. In this book there are few complex sentences. There is, also, such frequent alter nation in story, written exercise, and observation, picture, memory, and reading lessons that the subject-matter cannot become trite. The lessons are so logically arranged, and so pedagogically co-ordinated, that every sentence, every ques tion, every picture, every poem, every written exercise, forms a vital part in the presentation of hygienic law as an educational whole, in a form most readily comprehended by the child. Anatomy, strictly speaking, is a science the study of which requires the more mature mind of the advanced high school or college student. Only such basal facts of thebody's structure are here presented as are necessary for a clear understanding of the laws of health.

Excerpt from Primary Lessons in Human Physiology and Hygiene for Schools This book is intended for the use of children who are just beginning to learn something about the care of their bodies and the laws of health. In order to attract and hold the young pupil's attention, the lessons are presented in a variety of forms, and care has been taken to avoid, as far as possible, the didactic methods so common in text-books on this subject. It is believed that the constant alternation of reading lesson, picture page, oral exercise, story, memory lesson, written exercise, and review will be both pleasing to the learner and acceptable to the teacher. Such facts only are presented as can be readily comprehended by children - such facts only as are of immediate and practical importance to them. In the treatment of these facts, care has been taken to avoid whatever might unduly encourage or cultivate the sense of self-consciousness on the part of the learner - a sense which should not be acquired at too early an age. Hence, very little is said about the structure of "our wonderful bodies,'' and no anatomical pictures have been admitted.

Excerpt from First Lessons in Physiology and Hygiene: For the Use of Schools 1. Physiology. - The term Physiology is derived from Greek words which mean a story about nature. At first physiology included all kinds of natural study; but, as the word is now employed, it is the science which treats of the uses and actions of living objects. Human physiology is a study of what is done by and in the living human body. It is a study about our selves, about the uses and actions of all parts of our bodies - head and trunk, hands and feet, brain and nerves, stomach, heart, and lungs. It teaches us about the movements of the body; about feeling, seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and thinking; about eat ing, breathing, keeping warm, growing, wasting, and dying. Animals and plants represent living nature. Minerals represent lifeless nature. Animals and plants are born, live, grow, and pass away according.

Excerpt from An Elementary Physiology and Hygiene for Use in Schools The aim of the author in writing the present work has been to furnish an elementary text-book in physi ology and hygiene which should recognize some of the more important discoveries of recent years concerning matters pertaining to health, and which should also attempt to exemplify in the clearest way the inter relation between physiology and hygiene. The primary object of the study of physiology in our schools is to inculcate an intelligent care of the body. With this in view, matters of hygiene must in one sense take first place, although our understanding of hygiene must be based upon a knowledge of physi ology. In the present work the study of the body, of its various parts and their functions, is given full and comprehensive treatment; at the same time lessons on hygiene are given as natural results of the principles of physiology and as closely related thereto. A knowledge of foods and their values and of the causes and distribution of contagious and other germ diseases is of vital importance to every boy and girl.

Excerpt from Essential Lessons in Human Physiology and Hygiene: For Schools IN the preparation of the following chapters on hu man physiology and hygiene, the author has attempted to present only such facts as are essential to the most practical knowledge of the subject - that is, such facts as people in the common walks of life most need to know, and such facts as all can remember and make use of whenever occasion demands. The plan of the work is such as adapts it to the needs, not only of in termediate classes in graded schools, but of the large number of pupils in the country schools where the time which can be devoted to the study of this subject is necessarily limited. As a general rule, an effort has been made to speak briefly and to the point, without unnecessary verbiage; and, wherever such could be done without sacrificing accuracy or clearness of state ment, rigid condensation has been practiced. It is believed, however, that this will not detract from the interest of the narrative or from the practical worth of the lessons. Many interesting facts, especially in anatomy, have been ruled out as not being knowledge of value to those for whom the book is intended. As the purpose and end of all such studies is the inculca tion of rules and principles for the preservation of health, anatomy and physiology are throughout made subservient to hygiene and hygienic precepts.
