1t is a serious question whether the Bot.
tineau school board should not be indicted
for violation Of law in'regard t. hygiene, if
from what Prof. Mcintosh tells us, fifty
pupils are crowded into space which should

both physics and morals to tolerate that
kind Of providing AID we trust the Bottin
eau school board will see to it that no fur
ther ground of complaint shall be had.
Every parent, who values the health Of his
child, should protest against this violation
Of all hygiene principles, and there is
Doctor? on the board too.
