commit suicide? No one seems To
know. but there is no dispute about
the fact Indeed 1t has been said that
the NAB >ity Of suicides are those Of

educational system. That "the weak
must go to the wall has become ar
axiom that has been extended to the

the discouragement Of failure. It
would be interesting to know II any Of
the so-called heather countries Of the
world have yer experienced such n
horrid social phenomena MS that Of
child suicide.
