What The People Are SAYING.

What The People Are Saying.
whipping in the public schools has
had another example; a Miss Ross, a
teacher in school No. s, was accused Of
assault upon one Of her pupils, one
Sarah Roma, a Mexican girl. The
case was tried before Justice Jones
and because the prosecuting attorney
suggested that there was nothing in
the case the jury brought in a verdict
of not guilty
The evidence was positive that an as
sault had been committed; that the
teacher had used her ruler to inflict
wounds upon the head and hands of
the unlucky pupil but this did not
count because it was all done in aC
cordance with the rules and regula
tions.
The poor child was beaten up, and
yet ther ewas no justice in our courts;
an assault could be committed in our
schools that could not be committed on
our streets.
Shame upon our courts that will al
low a child to be beaten up under the
guise OF public instruction that would
not tolerate such an offense upon our
public streets.
The school teacher has our sympathy
because she is the tool OF higher au-
thority.
Whipping in our schools must be
abolished; it Is a relic Of barbarism.
