Excerpt from Wiley's Health Series, Vol. 3: Nutrition, Hygiene, Physiology I believe it was George Ade who said, If you want to uplift, get beneath. This sentiment is peculiarly appli cable to the study of physiology in the schools. Such terms as anatomy, physiology, and hygiene terrify the children, and to a certain extent make them antagonistic to the study. I have long thought that the proper way to get children interested in this matter was to make the subject a living one. I have sought to get entirely under it and to present it in a vital way. My experience is that children are easily interested in matters that pertain to their daily life if we go at it in the proper spirit.
