It makes a stand against all conduct by which life, limb, or health is wilfully endangered or sacrificed, or by which morals are imperilled. Inspectors are appointed who investigate cases of which complaint has been made, and if such complaints are found to be justified, parents or guardians of children are warned and as a last resource prosecuted.
