ing w. r. Ward, a well-known lawyer
here, applied to Judge Call OF the circuit
court for an alternative writ Of man
damus against the board OF public instruc-

returnable on March IA.

board of education to admit Wards two
minor sons to the benefits Of the public
schools here, from which they have been
excluded by the board since March /, for
the reason that they have not been vacci-
mated.
Judge Calrs order directs the board to
admit the boys to the school at once or
show cause why not.
Mr.. Ward said this evening that there
is no state law requiring that children
shall be vaccinated IN order to enjoy the
benefits of n free school, and that he
did not intend to subject his children to
the painful operation until the court de-
cided that he must do so as a prerequisite
to their admission to the public schools.

is the boards authority for its action, the
rule being as follows: After oct j, 1883,
superlntendents of all institutions OF
learning. and all school boards, and prin-
cipals OF schools in this state in incor-
porated cities and towns OF over 1900 in
habitants, are forbidden to admit as pu-
pills any children or person who cannot
produce satisfactory evidence Of having
been successfully vaccinated." This rule,
as enforced in the public schools, has been
the source of much dissatisfaction among
parents all over Florida, and all will be
glad when its legality is judicially passed
upon.
