claim their faults and failings, and they all
have plenty of them, expound political prin-
ciples, explain political questions. and give
publicity to political platforms, is stick in

pupils in their political duties. advise them
of their rights, instruct them how to obtain
them and maintain them, is not fit for the
schoolroom and hope to see the day and ]
