Excerpt from Work and Overwork in Relation to Health in Schools
Mr. President, Ladies, and Gentlemen,
I am deeply sensible of the honour which has been conferred upon me by the invitation of your President that I should open the discussion on Health in Schools, at this annual meeting in Oxford of the Teacher"s Guild. The burden of implied responsibility, however, is to be measured by the honour of the position; and greatly, therefore, as I esteemed the confidence reposed in me, I felt considerable reluctance in accepting the duty, since I fully realized the fact that I should be addressing a body of experts, many of whom were more competent to fulfil the task. Indeed, had it not been for the special request of your President - a friend of twenty-two year"s standing - I should scarcely have dared to undertake the important work. And those of you who know him as well as I do - able, esteemed, and amiable - will understand the difficulty of responding to any invitation of his with "No."
