Mixing of Sexes in Schools
The Effect in America
Thus Professor Henry Armstrong, of the Mosoloy Educational Commission; -" Ad, milling that it may bo possible, even desirable, to bring up tho two soxos together in the earlier years of school life, I yonturo to think that wo umst sooner or later eomo to admit that it is wrong to do so dui'ini; tho lator years, if tho object bo to develop a virilo man, To put tho matter in very simple terms, it wined to mo on tho- occasion of my former visit —mid tho impression was confirmed during my recont visit-that the boy in America is pot being brought up to punoh another boy's head or to Bland having his own punched in a hoalthy and proper manner; and there is a strange and indefinable feminine air coming ovo r tho men; a tendency towards a common, if I may so call it, sexless tone of thought."
