The evening light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1881-1883, 1882-05-03

have yet appeared that were so lost to all rea-
son nd discipline as to require expulsion.
The cases of corp' raj punishment, under our
regulations, are constantly diminishing, and in
many of the rooms not single case occurred
during the past year. In the colored schools
the cases are more frequent, owing, no doub',
to the fact that most OF the children attending
these schools have been reared with that kind
of discipline.
In summing up the arguments, pro and
con, it seems to be an admitted fact that there
is really but one class that may be saved, if
saved at all, by corporal punishment; and
since that class is, as yet, not found in our
schools, and when found, reform schools
should be provided for them, so that the har-
mony OF public education may not be out
ragged by their 1agrancy, and as they 90, let
the rod 60 with them.
The practice in our grammar schools accord
with the theory that the rod thall play no part
in discipline, and in the primary schools chill
dren can generally be controlled by the firm
but kind and sympathizing influence of the
energetic teacher, when granted the cheerful
cooperation of parents.
In view of these facts, looking to the good
of schools and teachers, | unhesitatinply re-
port in favor of abolishing corporal punish
ment. believing that schools under a superin-
tendent and a board can maintain efficient
discipline without resorting to corporal pun
ishment.
Owing to the growth of our schools the few
rules that once did service for few hundred
pupils are inadequate to comprehend the
present extended system, and would there
fore recommend that the whole code of school
rules be revised, and with special reference to
the abolition of corporal punishment.
Respectfully submitted,
w. G. ROTE, Sup't.

We are pleased to say that Mrs. Darlington
has received letter from her son Roland,
dated on Saturday last in which he reported
all well, and there appears to be good reason
for supposing that another Mr.. Darlington Is
the victim of the incident related.
We should add MS. Darlington telegraphed
to her son on Monday, but has had no reply,
but no weight is attached to this omission as
the letter just received is dated two days after
the alleged murder,
