Trui'U.
Tho superintendents of the public
schools of Virginia at thoir recent con
feronco In Richmond very properly
laid on tho tal)le a resolution request?
ing tho legislature to pass a law com?
pelling parents to send their ohildron .
to school. Tho Spartan idea of putting |
tho State in tho place of the parent
has no place, or should have no place
i in our American Politics. It is' right)
to educate, their children, and by all
moral appeals to urge them to do so;
but compulsory education is repugnant
to all proper ideas of the relation of
the State to tho individual, and, wo
may add, repugnant also to all scrip- I
tural teaching of tho authority of tho
parent over the child. EX.
