BoL LSHEVIST PUPILS
! IN CONTROL OF SCHOOLS
children of Reds Do Just as They
Please-Unpopular Master
{ Is Elected.

LONDON. March 1 Correspondence
OF tho Associated Press).-Pupils in
stead OF teachers control the schools
OF Russia under the bolshevik regime,
according to two Engiishmen. one of
them an experienced schoolmaster,
who have just returned from Russia.
Boys and girls are herded indis-
criminately and there is no discipline,
say the Englishmen. Pupils control
the teachers. In a Kolma school
youth Of eighteen was appointed COM
missioner of the institution and was
in charge of all teachers. On one oc-
casion he closed the school for
week as a protest against the action
Of the master who had reprimanded
pupil.
Should a master prove unpopular, he
, is promptly elected by his class. Often
lind his pupils engaged in commit
tee meeting. which must not be dis
tnrbed
Each class has It's own committee
and usually the most popular boy rep
resents the others at the masters

tribution of food which is provided
fbr the midday meal and which is
the chief cause for any school at
tendance at all
Pupils do exactly as they please,
Walking into the classroom and leay-
fSg 1t while lesson is in progress.
This is particularly true as regards
lunch time. for the first to reach the
dining room is the first to be served
and he usually gets the best. No pun
ishment of any kind is inflicted on
the pupil as each pupil is his own
Inenfof as to right and wrong
No home work is set, the pupil doing
AL his school work during the hours
sgt apart for each session. Attendance

English Fireplace.

LONDON, February 26 Correspond
ence Of the Associated Press).-The
government plan to build 100000
houses for workmen within the next
few years apparently has aroused the
British public to demand abolition OF
the archaic English fireplace, and
substitution of the American steam
Beating system for homes. The de-
t1and is voiced by numerous con-
tributers to the London newspapers

over half an average English draw

Must Not Feed Them Peanuts,

In spite of published warnings
shingtonions who think they know
more about what young elephants
should eat than expert keepers, still
persist in trying to feed "Kechil" and
.Hitam," the new elephants, peanuts.
Grown men, who ought to know bet

apparently determined to give the
Sumatran babies a treat. Only the
grave and reiterated requests and
warnings given by keeper stationed
at the spot prevented these persons
from endangering the life of a s25
animal just for the pleasure of seeing
it eat a nut.
Persons of that stripe succeeded
few years ago in making a young
African elephant die from a stomach
disorder out at the local zoo, and ap-
parently they are determined to have
the new Sumatrars meet similar
fate. Probably NO one would howl
louder than these same persons if they
caught a stranger feeding candy or
nuts to a child of theirs. It's a funny
world, and this is a still funnier town.
