Mr.. Editor,-Seeing in your issue of
Feb. I'd brief notice of the trouble in
Slab City school in Glover, 1 will state
few facts which will place the response
bility where it belongs. Three large
boys-old enough to show some respect
to a female teacher-in various ways
made her so much trouble that after six
weeks of school they were expelled from
attendance by the decision of three Barton
men, to whom the case was left for hear
ing. Since that time there has been such
an influence brought to bear against the
teacher that it eliminated in breaking
into the school-house and destroying
property, breaking bell, stealing ruler,
etc, so that the teacher, worn out and
discouraged, has left the school. Con-.
