ATTORNEY GENERAL HOLDS
Says There Is No Law Forbidding b;
Reasonable Employment of Old- di
Fashioned "Persauder" ai
h:
Columbia, Nov. 2.?That there is ^
no statute preventing teachers from \
inflicting corporal punishment on re- aj
fe' fractory students is the interpreta- s(
tion oi^he law, Samuel M. Wolfe, ta
AtUrrne) General, gives in an opinion w
v in answer to a letter making inquiiy ti<
on the subject
Holding that disciplinary measures
are in the discretion of the nj
board and directors of a school, the !
opinion says that "if to compel obe- i ^
dience and conform the pupils of the
school to projier decorum it is necessary
in some instances to resort to
corporal punishment, the law does
not prohibit it being inflicted." j
While in the school the teacher, I
the opinion holds, in relation to the I
child is in loo parentsis, and logically I
must adopt the same disciplinary |
methods as the child's natural guard- j je(
ian.
, Sl]
"Of course," continues the opinion,;
"If the teacher inflicts punishment j?
which is wanton or malicious in its
nature, or which results from some
other motive than that ofP^unishing
the child for some misdemeanor, in ^
I
the school, the law would hold him responsible.
It will likewise hold himljft
responsible for punishment which was I
brutal in its nature and out of pro-!
h portion to the offense committed by j N<
the child." j
Mr. Wolfe takes the position that |
when a parent objects to punishment j
for the child in conformity with the
regulations of the school and the i ^
board of trustees, he should be re-'
quested to withdraw the child from j
the school. Mr. Wolfe recited his own
experience as a teacher, in which he j _
had a rule that if a child got sixty j M
demerits the parents had the option
of selecting expulsion or punishment.
' This method, he said, did muc^i to
obviate parental objection to | just ^
methods of discipline. He further i
said that no child should be punished &
unless fully cognizant of the offense
for which chastised.

Wage War On Boll Weevil to<
foi
B. Harris, commissioner of agricul- foi
ture, h&s issued an appeal to the fo:
farmers and business interests of the of
state in which he calls on them to ?
get into the war on t)ie weevil just m
launched in this state by A. Lee An-' I
drews, publisher of the new book. j1
"The Boll Weevil Problem?Its Solu-: 5
tipn." 1 _
p This timely and highly important y
book is an enlarged fourth edition of, f
the "Boll Weevil Problem." which 1
ran into three editions and was a big
success. The new book has ten new, ,
highly specialized chapters by eleven ^
widely known authorities On the sub-'
ject and is the most authoritative -
treatise on the weevil ever published.
.The title of the new book is a very
striking one and will undoubtly ere-:
ate a great deal of curiosity, but Mr.!
Andrews says that tfie solution of
this big ptoblem really is embodied j
in the new book.
According to the compiler of this
book; the most important thing before
the farmers and every" business
interest in the South at this time is
the prompt turning under of all green J
cotton stalks, because this destroys j
millions of adult weevils, eggs, larva |
and pupae; it deprives the weevils j
which escape this process, of a place
' * * 11 If onncorvoc fVl(? i
I tO laytui'.ncr eggs, ?. ww.w, -? ;
green stalks as a plant food and I
these are worth anywhere from $2 to j
$5 or more per acre; prepares a most I
i excellent- seed bed after being disked I
and rolled and puts the land in condition
to absorb the rains of the winter j
without undue erosicn, thus providing:
. additional moisture against a possi- j
4 ** ble dry spring and summer. Because
- of the short crop to be gathered and j
; \ the exceptional opportunity for fall !
plowing together with the above ad-'
jr* vantages * > be gained, Commissioner j
I Harris w s glad to lend his influence ~
and get right into the war which Mr.! m
Andrews has organized against the
weevil. In
a bulletin issued by the department
of agriculture this year, the
following paragraph is found:
"If this single instruction to de-,
stroy all cotton stalks in the fall i
while still green could be carried out [
by evei-y grower, it would practically ;
solve tie weevil problem. The difficulty
is ''.hat only part of the growers
follow tl s plan."- This is a very
strong assertion, but Mr. Andrews
says that all authorities concur and
b that in view of the fact that most I
^^^Jfarmers will be making a splendid ,
BBT investment when they purchase im-1
proved implements for breaking their
land ane because they must break
the land at some time anyway it
would seem that the most logical and <
I altogether sensible plan would be to j
break the land deeply before frost
RB with a plow which will cover all cot- j
ton stall:s deeply.
