Excerpt from The Career of an Elementary School Teacher To the lover of children the call of the elementary schools is clearer and more insistent, for here certainly is the greatest need. Modern society is only just beginning to awake to the claims of children. A few, the children of well-to - do parents, are secure in the provision of healthy surroundings, adequate food and clothing, skilled guardian ship of health and safety, and early training in right physical habits, manners, and Speech. Fewer still, not all of these, are sure of a good moral and intellectual environment, of growing up in an atmosphere of art and culture, of taking for granted high principles or religious conviction. These last treasures are to be found in as many poor homes as rich, but the mass of the parents whose children attend elementary schools have little Opportunity of providing for them at home the physical and social. Environment which society owes every Child. Space and air, adequate food and chances of cleanliness, beauty and wisdom have in general to be provided for children away from their homes. It is a wrong system, and we should not accept it as permanent, but meanwhile the best way of altering it is to supply through the school an environment and training which will prevent the next generation from tolerating such a state of things. The nursery schools ought to make possible for all children the sheltered life during their early years which is now only possible for the few. For this to be done we need women with a passion for the service of childhood, pre pared to face the fact, which every wealthy mother acts on unconsciously, that without an army of single women devoted to delegated motherhood, children will never in our existing society be properly brought up at all.
