j AS if all our gr?asccups must be tr- ) vl''y lonly

tbs young, after she had spent to many years In prepar

ing her wonderful mental equipment for her work, confronted by such shameful charges, most of which were evoked. It might be said, out of thin air. The tragedy of school teaching was certainly laid bare. There came from the grrare a voice, that of a young girl teacher who had died because of neglect of self in pursuit of her teaching duty. Her vicarious testimony held Mrs. Herndon guiltless of brutality. It must have been a triumrh for the accused school mistress to have had so many noble men and women speak for her of her brilliant past, as an educator vim voce and by letter. Her life. It may be- truly said, ha been one long eacriflco for the young. She gave her veryheart and blood to the children she served and no one could hear her talk without being powerfully impressed with her loyalty to her profession and her sincerity in her work. Mrs. Herndotfs one mistake is her belief in the effieaey of the strap as a corrective. Tt is w rong o rule by fear. The little girl whom she whipped until there were black and Mite marks on her leg was punished solely because she would not. talk. It is not always possible for a child to talk when ordered to do so. That is not a fault calling for tha rod. We know of course that educators will take Issue with us, but we do not believe that any person has any right to lay hands on any child not their own. Tf parents cannot control their children at homo they had better keep them out of school. The accused principal has of course outlived her usefulness in Hammond, and therein is the pity of it for she ias given the best years of her life in the district she taugtit and the results she has obtained there have been remarkable. Tt is to be hoped that the faithful work she hfts done In that troubled district will bring about closer co-operation between parent and teacher. Teaching school Is a hard, wearing life. It consumes energy and vitality. Tt can dull the sharpest intellect, sour the sweetest disposition and hang a burden of care on the most cheerful nature, if there i? not the proper co-operation between the two agencies, parent and child. Wo exact a good deal of the school teacher and we certainly ought to give her as much as we take, jf not more.

T!rs i. why Germany's conception of the "freedom of the seas'' in time of peace was always without a grain of foundation. As for war. Britain has used her feet as fairly ana legitimately as in time of peace. Her navy is unstained by any of the atrocities that made the world's blood run cold during the short life of the German navy. Without it we could not have won this war. and despite the temptation to retaliate the British navy conducted its share of the war as impeccably as if it had been fighting an honorable foe. The British fleet is a protection to the world's trade in time of peace, and a bulwark against assassins in time of war. It is a frier.d to the trader, but a terror to the pirate, as German- now knows. - New York Times. PUBLIC DEFENDERS.
