decided at Rockford. His, last week
The plaintiff was Miss Post, and the de-
fendant, Rulnson, teacher, in Durand
township high school, ia Whncbago
county. The plaintiff was in the junior
class Of the high school. and among the
prescribed studies for the class was book
keeping The plaintiff 5 mother did not
want her to study book Gceping. because
she had .lrcady as many lessons AS the
s,ats Of her health would permit her to

that study and to obtain the necessary
books. The directors ordered hef eN-

her out Of the building, using some force
in the proceeding Subsequently her
step father applied for her readmission,

to it except on condition that she agree
