Shall the Teacher or the Pupil Rule!

Shall the Teacher or the Pupil Rule?
For the information of parents and
citizens generally, the following para
graph from the School Code of Wiscon-
sin is published:
Not unfrequently there is disposition
TO question the teccher's right to enforce
his authority by the infiction of corporal
punishment 1t should be borne in mind
that the teacher who contracts to man.
age public school undertakes to do
something more than merely to prescribe
lessons and hear Rotations He as
sumes to govern the school,to maintain
quiet and order in and about the school
house, and to compel such conduct on
the part of the pupils as shall best con-
duce to their own welfare and that of
the school as a whole. This authority
would be nugatory if the teacher were
not armed with some coercive power.
Accordingly, the supreme courts of
nearly every state in the union have
held, with singular unanimity, to the de-
termination that the teacher has the
right, in the execution OF his duty, to
inflict corporal punishment. Our own
supreme court, in 45 Wis, p. $50, held
that "a teacher is responsible for the
discipline of his school, and for the pro
gress, conduct and department. OF his
pupils. 1t is his imperative duty to
maintain good order and to require of
his pupils faithful performance of
their duties. II he fails to do so, he is
unfit for his position. To enable him to
discharge these duties effectually, he
must necessarily have the power to en-
force prompt obedience to his lawful
commands. For this reason the law
gives him the power, in proper cases, to
inflict corporal punishment upon refrac-
tory pupils" The courts have held as
uniformly that the teacher was liable
for the castigation Of his pupils only
when the punishment was unreasonable
or when inflicted from malicious mo-
tives. 1t has also been held that the
teacher is the best judge both Of the
need and the measure of punishment
There are many circumstances tending
to determine the guilt of the pupil which
cannot be set up in evidence such as
the manner of the pupil, his tone of
voice and general conduct

Will Go to Lake Geneva.

After four years pastorate at the NJ II.
church in this city, Rev. F. G.. Richard
sons term has closed and he has been
assigned to the Lake Geneva church.
And be it said that the charge in the
lake city will be presided over for the
Edgerton four years ago not wholly a
stranger, but with only slight acquain-
lance, and leaves the city with friends
scores in number and not confined to
his particular religious denomination;
an earnest and conscientious worker in
the church and it's societies and always
laboring faithfully and manfully for the
betterment of the whole community; an
interesting and entertaining speaker
and ever extending the hand of welcome
to all who passed through the portals OF
his church.
And the wife OF the pastor, Mrs
Richardson, an ideal christian woman,
with deep interest in her husbands
labors, the ladies' society, the Sunday
school, who has helped to make for her
self and family warm place in the
hearts of those associated with the
church and neigh bors of the community,
will depart with regrets from all.
In fact all dislike to see Pastor Rich
ardson and family leave, but are glad
that thar naw home and lahors are To-
Gated in beautiful city not far distant
and that occasionally they may return to
renew acquaintance here.

DOCTOR FIGHTS HUNGRY SEALS.
New York Physician Barely Escapes
with Life.

Avalon, Santa Catalina Island.-Dr.
w. A. Pratt, prominent physician of
New York, had an exaerience here
which came near costing him his life.
In an encounter with seals whom
hunger had driven savage the doctor
was compelled to struggle for life 40
minutes. The only weapon he had
was an old broom handle. He was
about ready to give up the struggle
when help arrived.
The doctor went fishing early in
the morning and returned to the island
with % albicore. While at lunch near
the wharf half a dozen hungry seals
appeared on the quiet surface of the
bay and in a moment they were strug-
Cling furiously to get aboard his
launch. Defending his catch with
broom handle, the doctor succeeded in
getting his launch to the pier but the
seals were not yet beaten and re.
newed their attack more savagely
than before, attempting to snap his
legs and arms and trying to throw
themselves into the boat.
An old blind seal recently brought
to Avalon from West Lake park, Los
Angeles, led the attack. The doctor
struck 1t across the face dozen
times before 1t dropped into the water.
Finally, when just about exhausted,
the doctor dropped four big fish over.
board. While the seals were seizing
these help arrived and the doctor got
away with the rest Of his catch.
