Storms of controversy followed a radio talk on Sex, but confident that "Salient" is read only by parents, and then after nine o'clock, we present you a symposium of views on the sex-education of children:—
Kate: "Don't bother me now, honey."
Peter Hillyer: "It would only lead to abuse ... we live in a social world . . . children must be taught self-control."
M. Shirley Grinlinton: "I am too young to have any."
Mr. Rule related an anecdote about fifty boys in an orphanage who, having received no sex education were bashful at a party, and ten boys and ten girls of another orphanage who took each other for granted.
