Attorney General Douglas has
written an opinion to the effect that
school teachers cannot refuse public
school pupils the right of admission
to the schools on the ground that
they are not vaccinated, holding

differ with the attorney general his
opinion makes little difference at the
present time for the reason that
about SO per cent. of all the pupils
have already been vaccinated, and
the remainder will probably fall
into line as matter of form.
