Thureday morning Mrs. John Hass, armed with a long and strong horse- whip, walked to the South school and administored several blows to Miss Viola Lewls, the 23 years old teacher, and was oniy stopped by the appeas- ance of two residents of Chaplin wno had been informed of her intentions and who had gallantly hurried to the school to protect the teacher. When Mirs. Hass saw the two men she ceased the corpcral punishment and started a tngue lashing that proved not quits =0 painful physically to the teacher but Which injured har feelings to consil- erable extent. As a resuit of this break in the routine of life the little village of Chaplin is now divided into two camps, the ‘backers of Miss Lewis, who feel that action whould be brought against Mrs. Hass. and the other camp com- posed of Mrs. Hass' friends, who say that tha punishment given to the teacher was deserved. Chaplin has hul other troubles with teachers and at ~ment has been high in the llage, om all accounts another of these &choo! investigations is soon to bi Set In motion, The preseat provocation is said to due to the fact that the teacher has kopt the daughter of Mrs. Hass after school. This occurred sev- eral times and d leased the mother. Wednesday afternoon the child was informed by the teacher that shs would have to remain after school again that day. The child informed the teacher that mother had told her tfo com> home and not stay after school even if tracher told her to stay. At the close of the afternoon period Miss Hass backed by the of ial com. mand from her mother, walked out of the school in open deflance of Miss Lewis' order. Miss Lewlis told tha girl that she would be punished Thursday morning for her defiance. Little Miss Hass hyrried home aad told her mother what ‘was in store for her at sthool the next morning. Mrs. Hass decidad to take a hand in the mratter and acted as stated. There the schoolroom at the time of the whipping. Tt is said that at the close of the last schho! term ten parents of children attending Miss Lewis' school signed sented a petition to the school committes objectiag to her i1eturn as teacher. After due investigation and deliberation the commmittez decided that there wals no reason wh the teacher should not be reétained, and she has been at the school since then. AT Lawis did not suffer any ph: sical irjuries in the assault. Friday morning she was at her school ready for business. Some of Chaplin's sub- stantlal residents fee] that an injustice would be done the teacher and school if some action be not tak2n by the commictee. Labor Difficulty Settled. The controversy between the .con- tractors and buliders and their car- penters over the question of wages has been satiled by the signing of a three- year agreement.
