Child, who is the most important asset Of the Nation, we favor definite plans for physical training to be carried on regularly in every school of the Nation; we indorse the making of good-health practices a part Of the daily life of the child; we recommend some such system as the modern health crusade as a part of an effective course of health education; we favor the teaching of social hygiene in all teacher-training institutions, and recommend the cooperation of teachers with all organizations of parents in the instruction necessary to the inculcation Of sound ideas and attitudes in children and youth. As to the essentials of social hygiene, we favor the establishment by the States and the Nation of definite standards and ideals of physical perfection of children of school age, to be placed before pupils and parents, and we advise the adoption of a plan of regular reports to parents of the physical standing of their children, to the end that every American child may build his life on a basis of sound physical health.
