A NEW GULICK HYGIENE SERIES 



By Frances Gulick Jewett 



* This new series is built on the same principles that have made 

 the original Gulick Hygiene Series the leader in its field. The 

 health of the body is emphasized rather than the study of anatomy 

 and the treatment throughout is particularly interesting to the child. 

 The author does not preach or obtrude a " moral " but presents sci- 

 entific facts in a way to catch the child's attention and cause him to 

 make his own applications. The Gulick books lead children to think. 

 The new series presents a complete two-book course for schools. 



BOOK ONE — HEALTH AND SAFETY 



" Health and Safety," for the . ourth or fifth grade, deals primarily 

 with matters of personal health. The facts in regard to the routine 

 of physical existence — breathing, eating, sleeping, bathing, and exer- 

 cising — have been skillfully and adequately treated. These chapters 

 form the background for emphasizing the special care which every 

 child should give to his teeth, nails, eyes, hair, and ears. Accidents 

 and emergencies are thoroughly and sensibly discussed in the last two 

 chapters of the book. Perhaps the most significant and noteworthy 

 feature of both volumes is the sane and scientific treatment of the 

 subjects of alcohol and tobacco, igy pages, illustrated, jo cents. 



BOOK TWO — PHYSIOLOGY, HYGIENE, AND 

 SANITATION 



The second book of the series, for the upper grammar grades, deals 

 with the same problems of hygiene that are discussed in Book One, 

 but from a different angle. In addition, the pupils are at once intro- 

 duced into the very heart of the once formidable study of physiology. 

 The normal interests and ambitions of the boys and girls are success- 

 fully used as a lever to raise the subject above its technicalities to some- 

 thing intimately related to their own welfare. Every chapter of the 

 twenty-four has been written in a way to make pupils see the use of the 

 facts presented in attaining their ideals.- 367 pages, illustrated, 76 cents.
