enty boys are on strike at Iowa
City. The youngsters disregarded
school rules and besought moving
picture show. They refused to give
ear to the entreaty of teachers and
now they all stand suspended, the
school board having taken hand in
the matter. Now it is announced that
the same number of girls, out of SYM
pathy for the boys, are going on a
strike also. At this distance from the
conflict it is not difficult to suggest
a remedy for this mutinous condition.
There must be lot of parents inter
ested. It is UP to them to make good
lust at this critical moment. The old
fashioned rod of correction should be
applied where it will do the most good.
Some vigorous work along that line
will be worth more than resolutions by
school boards and entreaties by teach
ers. Nine tenths of the grief that
comes to the average teacher in the
matter of discipline could be obviated

THg FOOTBALL PROBLEM.

The principal OF the Council Bluffs
high school and the members of the
board have found what seems to be a
satisfactory solution of the foot ball
problem. Before a youngster can be
taken into consideration as possible
member of the team he must have
the consent of his parents. The adj
vantages of this arrangement are thus
pointed out by the Burlington Hawk
Eye:
of course, with very few exceptions
the youngsters will get that consent.
as the young hopeful generally sue
eeeds in getting what he sets his
heart upon But in the event that he
is brought home on a shutter, with a
collarbone busted, hole in his head,
an arm out of place and a few rib
caved in, there will be no opportunity
cor the parents to abuse the principal
and the board. OF course, it is not
a foregone conclusion that anything
of the kind will happen, but as long
as foot ball shall remain foot bah
such things will always be within the
range of possibilities. And when
everything of the kind shall have been
eliminated foot ball will cease to be
interesting. 1t will be like bull fight

There are hundreds of Iowa school
