This Is q startling statement in
reply which a number Of teach
ers at the Liberty public schools
issued yesterday TO throw some
light on their attitude toward the
resolution adopted by the board
Of trustees that the teachers here
shall not participate in any more
dances.
The teachers said the resolu-
tons were unnecessary; that only
q request would have been neces-
sary considering the cooperating
corps of teachers. They declared
that 1t would, be impossible for
the Liberty teachers to be "frolic-
some," as there are no recrea-
tional centers at Liberty, a town
Of several thousand population.

ment is necessary in a we'll
