who expelled six scholars, children
OF Roman Catholic residents Of the town.
About a week ago, in the regular co urse

tue subject Of the Reformation in Myers'
Meeislval History, which is consider.
ed very liberal by the school committee.
Blk scholars refused to learn the pre-
scrlbed lesson on religious grounds
Principal Walsh told the pupils that
they need not study that portion Of the
book il their parents would send him no.
tlce giving them permission to skip OBJ.
noxious chapters. A few days later he
received a sort Of cround robin" docu-
ment signed by the parents Of the
scholars, declaring their opposition to
the study OF the Reformation by the
children. Walsh was not satisfied with
this and demanded that he should have
personal notice from each parent, This
was refused and tho suspension OF the
pupils followed. The school COMMITTEES
and Superintendent Day sustain the
Principal in his action. tis feared that
considerable trouble and hard feeling
will result in consequence. "
