AT GIRL SCHOOL
New Superintendent at Geneva
Institution Tells State Board
Corporal Punishment Has
Been Suspended.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln. April 29. (Special) As a
result of the hearing before the State
Board of Control over alleged irregu
larities it the girls' industrial home at
Geneva, in which several witnesses
told of inflicting punishment which
they believed too severe, Commis
sioner Mayfield of the board has sent
letters to each institution under con
trol of the board asking that the su
perintendent report as to the kind of
punishment administered to those
who violate rules.
So far all superintendents have re
plied that no severe punishment is
administered. .They are given a
heart-to-heart talk and told to go sin
no more. 1 .
Superintendent Paul S. McAulay,
tti nw aunerintendent of the girls
inHitria1 irhnol. has written a letter-
to the board in which he says that he
has withheld all corporal punishment,
admits that his orders not to punish
severely cases of disobedience were
met with a lack of hearty co-operation
on the part of employes, but he be
lieves that after awhile they will come
to his way of thinking.
McAulay writes that all Ihel punish
ment so far administered is to require
the offender to apologize for the of
fense committed. He calls attention
to an incident where he ordered two
girls to go to a room by themselves
and practice up on an apology which
he deemed would cover the case. He
found that Mrs. Barrett; the teacher
to whom the apology was due, was
just as loath to receive it as the girl
was to give it, but after an hour and
a half both returned with their arms
about each other.
The letter was written April 4, be-;
fore the i .esent hearing began. The
teacher, Mrs. Barrett, has since given
her testimony before the board and
also has left the institution under a
mutual agreement. ' .

WRAPPED
IN
You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out Dandruff
The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and. rub it in gently with the finger
Itips. V
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most, if pot all, or your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of tha scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You ean get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work. Adv.
