There has been so much comment on the recent whipping of Perry Howard in the Pierce street school that a BE reporter yesterday sought an interview with M Atkins, a member of the school board, to ascortain if possible just what the animus of that body was con- concerning the matter. Tou query as to what the bourd intended to do, Mr. Atkins replied: » has been no complaint made rd, therefore it has made no investigation, All that has been i or done has bheen individually, so Lean give gouis my own opinion not that of the board.” “*What do you think about the charges of ‘brutal clubbing’ that © been made in connection with this cas think that the bo; spanking, and undoubtedly feels rathe sore. There has been considerable tal about the ‘club.’ Have you seen it? No? Well, it is about a yard long, and Mr. Bell says it weighs six ounces. It is claimed to be ‘dangerous instrument,” and it is, without any doubt. If it should be rammed down a pupil’s throat or poked into his eye, it would cause serious trouble, but 50 would any stick that might be pro- cured, and for that reason it is a dan- gevous instrument, If 1t were made of pine it would break at the first stroke.

I think the affair will be amicably settled with little further controvers, It appears that Mr. Atkins' hope that the matter would be amicably adjusted, is not in o faiv way to be realized.
