As the school authorities do not wish to set into controversies they Are opposed to posting the ten commandments even As a pin up. So those who favor giving the children an Eye opener that it is Stone to commit adultery have gone to the legislature to have a Law passed making it permissible tor a St Hool Board to Post the ten r Man dents.
