Democratic Sentinel, Volume 22, Number 47, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 December 1898 — Shouting in Burmese Schools. [ARTICLE]

Shouting in Burmese Schools.

In Burmese schools making the lads shout is the approved method of elementary instruction. The Burmese educationists argue that so long as a boy is shouting his mind* is occupied. When he is silent he is certain to be scheming mischief. Therefore the best shooters are the best pupils.
