PARENTS STRIKE
IN SCHOOL ROW
Demand Pupils Be Allowed to
Use Front Door, Even
When 1t Is Muddy.

PATERSON. Feb. 7.-Residents of
West Park, a village just outside the
city, are much worked up over a
strike of parents started by Justice
of the Peace Morris Kammelhof to
compel Supervising Principal D. A.
Walton, of the West Park Public
School, to permit pupils to use the
front instead of the side entrance to
the school. The strike orders as in
formally promulgated by the Justice
call for the keeping away of children
from clsssrooms until Mr. Walton
gives in, with or without a tip from
the Board Of Education.
The school stands in the centre of
a plot containing twenty-five city
lots. The path leading to the side
door is through a field and Is un-
paved. On rainy days such as today
ii is very muddy. The main approach
to the school and the front steps,
however, are all that can be expected
of a most up-to-date school building.
Mr. Walton recently told the pupils
there are between 125 and $50 of
them) that they were not to enter the
building by the front entrance be-
cause they track in mud. Many of
the children told of the order when
they went home.
Justice Makes Protest.
Justice Kammelhof said that he
could see no valid reason why his boy
and girl should be obliged to "traipse
through the mud with dry front
approach to the school already in
commission and decided that he, for
one, wouldn't permit it.
The justice went to the school with
his children via the front walk yes
terday, but was barred at the front
door, so he took the children home
again.
His Supporters Follow Him.
Constable Amos Glass clicked his
heels together and followed with his
three grandchildren. Then came Mrs.
Margaret O'Dell with one child.
Justice Kammelhof declared today
that at least twenty-five children
ambled in his wake from the front
entrance and didn't enter by the
muddy path leading to the side door
But Principal Walton said that the
justices figures weren't accurate, as
only five children Joined in the
strike"
Justice Kammelhof's action is IA
tai to discipline in the school, he
said.
There isn't any sense in keeping
the front entrance for teachers and
visitors only" the Justice said.
The Board of Education met last
night, but took no action IN regard
to the supervising principals orders.
Meanwhile both sides are waiting
until Monday for developments.
