Discipline in School.
To the Editor of the Press;
l Twas made pleased to learn, through your
columns, OF the manly ground Judge Kings
bury took in his decision on the Raymond
case-in which q teacher was arrested for
Furnishing a lad until he yielded obedience to
wholesome rules. His ground is also sus-
tanned by all those with whom converse. It
was comparatively a trifling case, but it in
volved great deal that is important. There
is always class in community who will stand
by and encourage pupil who is inclined to
make trouble In school, and to call that indie
pendence which is only rebellion. This class

and the advancement OF the well-dispesed pu-
pills, who are almost always In large MAORI
ty. When the encouragement of this bad
spirit reaches over to our Courts, and intro
duces lax views there, inducing the authori-
ties 10 lean towards and be easy with this re-
bellious spirit, then farewell to discipline and
good order in our nurseries of learning, and
Of course to their usefulness. This rowdy
spirit will take courage, the teachers be in
suited, the pupils retarded, and the whole sys-
TEN injured essentially, on which so much de-
ponds for our children, unless our Judges are
very careful.
Hence l say. rejoice at the ground the
Judge took. 1t involves more than it seems
at first. The welfare Of all our village schools
was at stake. Good has come out of this re-
bellion, because out Off has come such whole
some doctrines of law and order.
