spect is rather new. The whipping
of pupil by teacher nowadays
is likely to make n scandal, and, in n
public school, to lead to the dismissal
of the instructor. BOYS are difficult
cattle to deal with, but it hns come to
be recognized fact that they can be
managed quite as efficiently without
violence. The old provcrb which re-
lates to the sparing of the rod has been
proved, like many other accepted say
iugs, fnllacy.
Perhaps you think it would be fun
to be shaken by the shoulders until
your teeth rattle. There was variety
of this exercise which was called
"churning," and which was accom-
plished by seizing the unfortunate boy
by the lapels of his coat and violently
agitating his person. Holding stick
in the air over the head was another
form of torture. which became very
distressing after few minutes. SO

thus, of course. Even so late as the
early part of the present century n
variety of tortures were commonly
applied by school teachers to their
pupils. Many of these were exceed
ingly ingenious and very distressing,
but an impression then prevailed to
the effect that they were necessary to
bring ont the latent virtues of youth
which might otherwise remain un-
developed.
