THEY DIDN'T BUMP.

Stop This School Boy Game.

Officers of the Law Were Present to
Stop This School Boy Game.
The mounted officers of the Cen.
trail police station were summoned
by telephone to the Marshall street
public school this morning by the
principal. When they arrived he
stated that he desired the presence
of the officer on that beat, Police
man Bader, as today was the last
day of the term and he wanted the
officer to prevent the Ssevere
"'bumping" process generally adj
ministered by the larger boys to all
the smaller ones in this school on
the last term day. The officer on
the beat was notified and no
dumping" was done.
This old time school play is done
by strong boy taking hold, one at
each of the legs and hands of a
small boy. At a given word the
boys holding the victims feet
raise them, the arms are lowered
and he is carried to a wall, where
he is thus used as a gathering ram
to knock down the wall. Three
"bumps" to a boy are usually
given, unless the wall falls sooner.
Some Of our most prominent Citi-
Zens can tell of these old humping
games and the headaches they
have endured in consequence, in
their old school days.
