A Concession to Refinement.

A father writes to the School Board
Of an Eastern city asking ''Why can 4
my boy go to school barefooted?" Sure
enough, why not? The father says
his boy is accustomed to going bare
footed in warm weather and that it
would be hardship for him to wear
shoes. Every boy who has gone bare
footed knows that, and the question
arises whether there is any principle
involved that should make it cause
for excluding boy from city school
any more than from a country school,
where many boys go barefooted all
summer and fall and are the harder
and better for it. Other things being
equal, a boy who goes baresooted sew
eral months In the year is likely to
have better formed and better develop
ed feet when be reaches adult years
than one whose feet have always been
cribbed and confined in shoes. Ex-
GLIDING barefooted boys from city
schools is a concession to sort of re-
finement that is not conducive to
manhood - indianapolis Journal.
