Description
Summary:Education in sex morality is always in danger of undoing its own ideals. At least in part, it is for this reason that the Roman Catholic church is so much opposed to the teaching of eugenics in the public schools. There is constant danger lest the really moral aspect of the entire matter be lost in the biological. Mr. Burling has called attention to an important asset which the church has for its conduct of the right sort of sex education. Even though our readers may not agree with all that he says, they will be sure to appreciate the main point which he presses home so vigorously.
