The principal of the Newport school and the trustees thereof were sustained by the county board of education in a matter in which a patron was the complainant, in the hearing in the office of the county superintendent of education last Saturday. The question grew out of the alleged bad conduct of a boy who would not behave.. Because the boy would not do as he was told and used disrespectful language to the teacher, he was suspended. After a time he was allowed to come back on promise of better behavior. In a short time he repeated his alleged insubordination and offensive conduct and was suspended for the balance of the session. The parent very naturally took the matter to the trustees, who sustained the teacher, and the case then went up to the county board of education, which sustained the trustees. The case, it is understood, will now go to the State board of education. ' Your Income Tax Return.
