In reply to Mr. F. O. Stansfield, who defended, the boy admitted that he could have answered: the questions if he had wanted. It was little naughtiness or his part. He did not complain to his mother; it was his younger brother who did 50."I like to keep my troubles to myself," he added, bursting into

Inspector Wainwright said that when he examined the boy he found leven distinct marks,, or weals. In his opinion the punishment was improper.
Teacher's Regret. Miss Kay, who said the had been teaching for 14 years, said Harris was a lazy and backward boy, and on the day in question he would not answer her questions. She was angry with him and struck him about four times across the should ers. She would not have done it if she had known it would hurt so much. She thought he had just made him smart a bit. She was Very sorry, as she did not intend to burt him "She had been wor- ried a good deal since the occur

For the defency Mr. Stansfield contended that punishment was not an assault if it was given in the lawful correction of ต child. Education authorities had regula tions governing the punishment of school-children, and any deviation from those rules was apt to create a wrong impression. If they were quite fair their sympathies would go out to the teacher, who was responsible for 42 children and had her class held up by one boy who would not open his mouth."
The complainant's solicitor inid he was prepared to accept an apology, and on behalf of his client Mr. Stansfield made a sincere apology for the pain which the boy had suffered, and which had been
caused unwittingly.
The Chairman of the Bench, Mr. J. C. Coppock, said the magistrates were prepared to accept a public apology from Miss Kay, and dis- missed the case on payment of £3 13s. 6d. to cover the costs of solici- tor's and doctor's feca The magis trates hoped that this kind of thing would not be complained of in the future.
