BANGLE BATTLE CASE.
"VIOLET STAYS AT HOME."
LONDON, September 25. What is known in Wes! Somerset as the "Bangle Battle Case"—a controversy over the right of a little girl, Violet Burton, to wear a small silver bangle at school—still rages. Three months ago, Mrs Burton sent Violet to school wearing her aunt's gift bangle. The schoolmistress promptly sent Violet back home with orders to take the bangle off. Violet's parents took up'the challenge and refused to remove the bangle. The schoolmistress refused to admit Violet to the school. Meanwhile the file of papers at the Education Department steadily grows. Violet keeps the bangle on and stays at home.
