London. The curse of strong drink is driving the British to soda pop. The National Association of Soft Drink Manufacturers reported the nation soaked up 225 million gallons of lemonade and such in 1949. This is twice the prewar average. So is the cost of beer and whiskey.

I cannot imagine very many who like beer and whiskey switched to soda pop. The soda pop drinkers have largely switched from water. Many kids now drink alcopops or RTDs which may have boosted soda pop consumption.

From yesterdays Upper Left Hand Corner posting.
GAVE WIFE A SPANKING.
She Said She Deserved it and Asked Court to Let Husband Go.
While the tingle of the spanking that her husband had given her be cause she had not obeyed him was yet sharp, Mrs. Louis Lapraeono, of Jamaica, had him arrested for assault. But yesterday she told Justice Sal-mon in Special Sessions that the spanking, though it was hard, was only what she deserved. So she hoped the Judge would discharge her husband.
“You think.” asked the astonished Magistrate, ” that he had a right to punish you if you disobeyed him? ” “Yes, I d o , ” said the matron. ” I think every wife should obey her husband. I promised to do so when I married him.”
“Didn’t you ever disobey him before?”
“No; and I’ll never do it again,” she responded.
“That certainly releases him,” said the Justice: but he warned Laporacono that he must never strike his wife again, even if she were disobedient.

<div style=”width:100%;background-image:url(/realm/A_L_123/A_L_trg.gif);”>Hello American Way,
I am deeply concerned! What did become of poor black haired, blue eyed, 13 year old Rachel Evel, whose only crime was to hurl a blackboard eraser at her teacher, something I’m sure all of us have done when thwarted in any way at school. Or perhaps not, though plenty of blackboard erasers were certainly hurled in the opposite direction at my secondary school!
You say above in connection with your link to the story:
But what sort of a rescue is that for goodness sake? He remands the poor child into the care of The Children’s Society from Wednesday until Saturday to have her mental state examined. And remember that she had already been in custody for 4 days at this point, and now faced yet another four days in detention If the report was adverse she could still have been committed to The State Training School until she was 21. And we know what went on in those places, electric spanking chairs in which the victims were strapped to have their bottoms paddled by four rotating paddles and suchlike horrors! There is no telling what traumatic experiences might have engulfed poor Rachel post her second appearance before Judge Salmon, and yet you leave us completely in the dark as to what happened on that impending fateful occasion!
Surely as a commonsense Justice Judge Salmon should simply have told the mother to form her own opinions as to her child’s behaviour, and instructed the domineering Principal Miss Francis and silly subservient teacher Miss Roosenthal to get their act together and do their job properly. The school’s disciplinary code must have provided some means of dealing with girls throwing things at teachers short of having them arrested, held for several days and hauled before the Justices! But then I suppose New York had abandoned school CP by 1910 ………. </div>

<div style=”width:100%;background-image:url(/realm/A_L_123/A_L_trg.gif);”>Hello American Way,
Thank you for the update. It is good to know that young Rachel Evel apparently escaped the sad fate of being incarcerated in the State Training School until her 21st birthday for the relatively trivial offence of throwing a blackboard eraser at her teacher, which anyway missed its target.
This case is most interesting, because it illustrates that the ridiculous phenomenon of school teachers, and indeed parents, abrogating their responsibility to discipline children in their care and attempting to place the onus for this on the Judicial System is by no means new. The domineering Principle of New York City Public School 168 Miss Ceclila Francis, the ineffectual teacher Miss Therese Rosenthal and the rather silly mother Mrs Anna Evel were attempting to use this dubious mechanism in December 1910.
In direct line of succession from those pathetic excuses for adults are School Staff in Montgomery County, Texas, who engineered this ludicrous exhibition of high school girls being handcuffed and shackled and taken into custody from school for …… Well, what for? Murdering several of the school staff? Bringing automatic weapons to school? Attempting to torch the school premises? Errm no, actually it was apparently for skipping school! What a ridiculous effort! What on earth did all those deputies and constables and motor vehicles cost? To say nothing of the fact that a full blown Judge was apparently also present.
Just as in the case of young Rachel Evel, any half-competent school staff would have dealt with the matter perfectly well without even a whiff of the Legal System. New York City seems to have abandoned school CP in 1870, so Rachel couldn’t have been given the spanking she richly deserved, but surely detention or writing lines or a long essay on why pupils must not throw blackboard erasers at teachers would have sufficed. I’ve no idea if Montgomery County, Texas has school CP. If it does why weren’t a few swats quickly dispensed, or failing that a few detentions or periods in ISS. Can it ever be right to give children criminal records, or even enforced exposure to the Judicial System, for trivial offences at school? I think not!</div>

Really EAL,
You astound me! Fancy taking this comedy video as real. The give away is that the <s>police</s> actors have not drawn their weapons let alone their battens, Tazers or pepper spray. Note also the lack of alarm of the supposedly wayward girls.
The problem seems to be removal of discretion, and its ally common sense, from so much of life these days. Rules is rules and rigidly prescriptive rules prevail.

I dont like to send kids to jail, and I dont like to send parents to school, Judge Metts said, This is what I like seeing young people get back on the right path thats why were here.
The judge further stated some people do not approve of his methods, but its hard to argue with success.
Judge Metts has been recognized for his contribution to dramatically improving the attendance rates in Splendora ISD and New Caney ISD.
He is not alone. Diane Tran, originally mentioned by Prof.N here, was also jailed in Montgomery County.
See here.
Judge Moriarty told KHOU 11 News that he intended to make an example of Tran by placing her in jail.
“If you let one run loose, what are you going to do with the rest of them? Let them go, too?” Moriarty told the station.

Really KK !
You not only astound me, but anyone with an ounce of common sense, if you think this is a staged comedy video with actors. I do agree that it is a comedy video, a comedy of errors. Do you think that the police need their weapons of guns battens tazers and pepper spray when dealing with school girls ? There is lack of alarm from the, as you say “supposedly” wayward girls because they are law abiding and do as the police tell them, and are not likely to start a fight with the police. They were not alarmed because, like everyone else, even though they were actually involved in the action, they also thought it was beyond normal comprehension to the point of ridiculousness.
Americas 2013 version of the keystone cops !
I do agree with you that it is removal of discretion, and its ally common sense, from so much of life these days that is the root of the problem.
The attitude of Rules is rules, and rigidly prescriptive rules prevail is the path followed by incompetents and a release of the socially inadequate. In Germany in the 30s Hitler made the rules. Wouldn’t the world and, Germany in particular, be a lot better place if some of the German population followed the good old British tradition of sticking two fingers up at some so called saviour of the nation.

There is a popular caveat repeated often on reality television here that says on’t try this at home. It certainly applies here to the half dozen posting in a mainstream publication. Some of this information may seem irrevelant and others who have no interest in the American Way may find it yawnable but I hope some will eill enjoy and/or learn something about our history. Hollywood probably assures that many of this will not be unfamiliar to our estimable Forum.
Google has become a souce of a mine lode of links especially when it comes to small city papers in the days of yore as I recently mentioned. Is this happening in regional papers in the UK.
In 1939 an article that would appear in the below links wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. The end of the innocence began here with kinky model Betty Page. The film on the Notorious Betty Page showed when that Senator Estes Kefauver TN attacked the effects of pornography on youth with her promoter Irving Klaw being questioned on Capitol Hill. Her promoter was upset that Kiss Me Kate with its famous spanking scene on stage in 1951 didn’t receive any censure or censor. Nothing pornographic here. I did find the pout with the wife rubbing her bottom ranking up there with a Norman Rockwell classic. It may become a best selling poster.
As I look back I wonder in 1939 whether the same mentality justifying nonconsensual corporal punishment for self gratification was operative in the home within moderation was found in the school. There is a universal moral compass IMHO called a conscience and I find many people must have found corporal punishment OTT and looked the other way back then. How many bare bottom spankings were given devoid of lustful motives? I would assume most but less likely than clothed. Pain and humilation was part of the punishment and I’m sure given by many with the best interests of the student in mind but were people aware what a temptation it was for some? They stopped doing it around the end of the age of innocence. What year or so was that in the UK? We have fewer boarding school so much of this wouldn’t apply as it did in the home. What shifting standards of motives in fashion and CP!!!

Anyone who has studied the Rodney King arrest video will realise that the girls are resisting arrest. They may not look “happy” but they certainly look wicked with more than a hint of malice in their eyes. The police officers should have been given them each a squirt of pepper spray and a zap with the Taser before attempting to arrest them.

AMERICA ! The worlds policeman and land of the free !
School girls in handcuffs, leg irons and waist restraints ? ? ? ? Does this happen in Syria ?
Just what sort of people do they employ as principals, and others so called in charge of schools. As this is a polite board, I shall not express my opinion on the school management (or non management). It is clear they have not earned the respect of pupils and cannot enforce discipline. And this is not a reference to corporal punishment. In the work place, no one gets paddled or caned, but there is still discipline.
As it had got to this ridiculous length, why couldn’t the police just have told the girls, or “invited” them to get in the van.
America has recently been on about the treatment of people in Syria, ok, not quite as bad as that, but how long will it be before they lock all the kids in school and shell it with sarin gas. A different take on “That’ll teach em”
President Obama must welcome the widespread news of action like this, like hearing Christmas has been cancelled.
Not to say a draconian even like this has only happen once in America but I strongly believe it is an aberration and hopefully does not become trens. It would more likely not to be tolerated in the overwhelming number of states where paddling does not occur. It is false assumption that because that school does not paddle, that because of the lack of CP as an option, this option had to be chosen. There is a culture of tolerance toward those in authority whether teachers or law enforcement officer that they are doing exactly what their parents or school boards would want thus double jeopardy (school and home) more so in the South than elsewhere. I can’t see this happening in New England and other regions of the USA. The fact that it was so rare it might have become considered newsworthy or so I would hope. That’s my take but I might be wrong. In any case it is not the American Way.

The jailing of students of truancy (at least on the public record) does seem to be a Montgomery TX specialty, and then restricted to 17 or older. It still seems reprehensible, but then it is Texas….
The incident referred to in the pictures above occurred in May 2011 (see my earlier post). There haven’t been any reported since the Diane Tran case which produced this impassioned defence of the judges in the quaintly named Montgomery County Police reporter.
More common is the threatened and actual jailing of parents, both in the US and elsewhere.
This may be the new Montgomery way.
http://abc22now.com/shared/news/top-sto … 9086.shtml
There is also a rather weird one from Ireland from May this year here:

When many of the county officials and teachers were in high school in 1986 in Montgomery County OH there were 44,000 paddled in that state. Among officials many were victims or beneficiaries depending on your POV. I had mentioned the State of Washington as an example of a state where paddling faded away in a very recent post as well as before.

There was a case earlier, reported on this board I think, of the police being called to deal with a tantrum of a small child at school. The teachers were unwilling to use force. Unfortunately, the handcuffs were too big and fell off the small wrists. Doubtless, all the more progressive departments have upgraded their restraints since.
There is nothing in between arrest and non arrest. You can not be compelled to do anything if you are not arrested. Invitations to cooperate can be hard to distinguish from improper duress when there is a power imbalance. Further, those under arrest have rights not afforded to those who are merely cooperating.
Those who are arrested must all be treated the same – in some jurisdictions in the USA. The reasoning is that the arresting officers can not reliably judge how those arrested will behave. For the safety of all, and because of the need to treat everyone equally, all must be restrained.
It can be very confusing if those under arrest are not put in chains. Once, after a successful mountain rescue, we, the rescuers, had to wait at a small local police station for transport to come and take us home. We were shown into the canteen and invited to serve ourselves. Several other civilians were in the room to whom we chatted. It was only later that we discovered that they were CRIMINALS waiting to be finger printed. Then there were times when search and rescue teams were transported in unlocked paddy wagons. Members of the public were alarmed when they saw us “escaping”.
Somehow, my tyrannical teachers of old do not seem so bad now. They never called the police to the school. Of course, them having our best interests at heart may have helped.

<div style=”width:100%;background-image:url(/realm/A_L_123/A_L_trg.gif);”>Hello Oliver Sydney,
My apologies, I failed to spot all the links in your excellent September 21 2013, 12:46 PM. contribution. As a result I said in my ‘photo-post’ above:
In fact the second link in your post indicates that when they appeared in court a total of 13 school students were sentenced to spend 72 hours in jail.
There is an outside chance that one of the girls from the video clip, the girl in white at the left hand end of the line in my first frame grab, might have escaped that fate. A photograph in the article you linked shows a court official adjusting her handcuffs, which this time are anodised a fashionable red! It is not clear if she is being freed to go home or being handcuffed for the trip to jail. However we may be sure of one thing it seems. Whatever else the girls may have learnt from their experience they sure as heck would be expert on restraint devices! Three different sets of handcuffs and counting ….. </div>

<div style=”width:100%;background-image:url(/realm/A_L_123/A_L_trg.gif);”>Hello KK,
I can’t trace the incident you mention where the handcuffs slipped off an arrested child, though I seem to recall the report here. However, this article makes it clear that the arrest and use of restraints on small children is by no means unusual. It includes mention of the arrest of a 5 year old boy at a school in California for, wait for it, committing battery on a police officer!
I’ve known a few policemen here in the UK, and I can’t imagine that any of them would ever be able to face their colleagues again if they claimed a 5 year old was committing battery on them! And what’s more they don’t even have guns! Doubtless because police issue handcuffs were too big the belligerent battery committing 5 year old was restrained with zip ties after his arrest.
But I mustn’t be too complacent. Police are becoming a frequent presence in schools here. I hope to goodness it never comes to 5 year olds being arrested, but I’m sure it won’t be long before a few pre-teens and teens get hauled away from school in handcuffs, if indeed it hasn’t already happened.
I wonder if this emphasis on restraining arrested persons is a relatively new thing. In the late 1960s a relative who was very fond of the USA but very short of funds spent much time criss-crossing the continent on Greyhound buses. He recounts that in an overnight trip encompassing Alabama the local Sheriff arrived at an early morning stop with a very large and very mean looking black prisoner, whom he put on the bus instructing the driver that another law officer would be picking him up at the next stop.
The man, who was completely free of any restraints, sat quietly for a time, but then began to wander up and down the bus behaving in a very threatening manner. Eventually, much to the relief of my informant, a very small and very elderly black lady stood up, read the man the riot act, and told him to sit down and behave himself. Which he duly did until he was collected by another Sheriff at the next stop!</div>

Judge Metts Boss of the Year. MONTGOMERY COUNTY TX.
CLICK
He missed school because he was working, and going to jail for 72 hours would cause him to miss work, which could have resulted in his mother losing her house. The judge listened and asked the young man to take a seat to the side of the courtroom. He later quietly confirmed the story with school officials, and then took the young man in his office where he shared words of encouragement. He told the young man he was going to give him another chance and then gave him money from his own pocket and told him to take his mother to dinner.

There is a popular caveat repeated often on reality television here that says on’t try this at home. It certainly applies here to the half dozen posting in a mainstream publication. Some of this information may seem irrevelant and others who have no interest in the American Way may find it yawnable but I hope some will eill enjoy and/or learn something about our history. Hollywood probably assures that many of this will not be unfamiliar to our estimable Forum.
Google has become a souce of a mine lode of links especially when it comes to small city papers in the days of yore as I recently mentioned. Is this happening in regional papers in the UK.
In 1939 an article that would appear in the below links wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. The end of the innocence began here with kinky model Betty Page. The film on the Notorious Betty Page showed when that Senator Estes Kefauver TN attacked the effects of pornography on youth with her promoter Irving Klaw being questioned on Capitol Hill. Her promoter was upset that Kiss Me Kate with its famous spanking scene on stage in 1951 didn’t receive any censure or censor. Nothing pornographic here. I did find the pout with the wife rubbing her bottom ranking up there with a Norman Rockwell classic. It may become a best selling poster.
As I look back I wonder in 1939 whether the same mentality justifying nonconsensual corporal punishment for self gratification was operative in the home within moderation was found in the school. There is a universal moral compass IMHO called a conscience and I find many people must have found corporal punishment OTT and looked the other way back then. How many bare bottom spankings were given devoid of lustful motives? I would assume most but less likely than clothed. Pain and humilation was part of the punishment and I’m sure given by many with the best interests of the student in mind but were people aware what a temptation it was for some? They stopped doing it around the end of the age of innocence. What year or so was that in the UK? We have fewer boarding school so much of this wouldn’t apply as it did in the home. What shifting standards of motives in fashion and CP!!!

As if there is no correlation with what goes on behind closed doors in a conference room or a bedroom? A husband who spanks his wife for poor conduct is that not that far a stretch from a young male teacher, coach or administrator paddling a senior in violation of the high school code of conduct? The infantilizing of an adult woman is nothing new in our day although thanks be to goodness that’s changed. It’s not been purchase at the price of many noble women. of who’ve fought for their rights. I love those hats. One must keep in mind society looked at it has queer in 1938 as they Happy Judge in 1902, and now in the latter part of 2013 paddles are sought after on e-bay and the reactions of many is surprise.
Less than a quarter of a million out of out of just more than 300,000,000 with so and away for the most part away from major media areas so many are unaware and I believe would if they knew it was still happening. Fewer districts permitting it, more parental opt outs, newer teachers and the fear of suits spells demise IMHO. What was considered normal in the days of the Supreme Court decision in 1976 is now looked at as queer.
My fellow esteemed member of the pantheon of the “your coined” estimable Forum but be sure not to keep the “e” in the lower case and “F” in the upper case or A_L will call you on it unless it’s someone who you unconvincingly claim to be a person you are not curry favoring. You say price of fish? Never underestimate how circumloquacious I can be in times of need.when challenged. Challenging me on relevance wasn’t a wise move on your part?
BTW in case I forget thanks for putting it up and so expeditiously. It would be a popular drawing in other venues than than our limited readership. I only wish I knew how to repay the favor.
Their hats bring back happy memories but not her pointer. Voice of the Corner, an adult content site, put this up and again it is of questionable origin. Third column. 160,000,000 would indicate the story was published in the fifties. I did ancestry research on names with nothing conclusive. There is a Lane family in Sioux Falls SD. It’s not that infrequent of a name but then again it’s a small city.

Another adult strict Strict Uncle had an insight worth considering.
Clearly this is a quick story that was cobbled together from a letter which the AP office in South Dakota found interesting that day. They put it into a story which they sent out over the wires to the agency’s subscribers and the Los Angeles Times ran with the tale – but that doesn’t mean that any of it is true.

Sorry but I must insist on being pendantic about this!
I raised the point here regarding one line in the lyrics of “Jumpin Jack Flash_, where Mick Jagger sings “<em>I was schooled with a strap right across my back</em>”
Mick Jagger & Keith Richards met at Wentworth Primary School. When Mick completed the 11-plus exam, he was accepted into Dartford Grammar School. Wikipedia “<em>a selective secondary (ages 1118) foundation school for boys in Dartford, Kent, England … all of the students joining the school are considered to be from the top 25% of the ability range, as determined by the 11-plus examinations</em>”
Both schools were located in Dartford, Kent, in the southeast of England. None of the LEA’s in the region allowed the strap, AFAIK, they were all caning schools. Inquiring minds need to know if the lyrics are accurate! or they simply rhymed (as history often does).

Hi HH,
Three things . first the song is recorded on an open d tuning, common in delta blues.Not instantly recognisable as such because its played with capo. The lyrics ? Well Camille Paglia speculated that the song’s lyrics might have been partly inspired by William Blake’s poem “The Mental Traveller”: “She binds iron thorns around his head / And pierces both his hands and feet / And cuts his heart out of his side / To make it feel both cold & heat. the stones have indicated that they saw it as being about the release from acid,and finally Bill Wyman reckons he wasn’t credited with the main riff in the song .
Reality? I suspect its from a delta blues background , and the strap is used widely in both the MS delta and the LS delta region( and in the ‘woodshed’ the back is as ok as anywhere else ) . The use in the Whoopie goldberg film of the same name , and Aretha Franklin’s cover of it give some credence to the structure being delta blues.
Here’s a ’72 version from the band in Texas. Note despite the studio version being on gibson this uses the Fender telecaster and no capo. The few times I played it , I used an open E tuning . You should be able to use a Nashville tuning on ‘lites’ either.
http://www.muzu.tv/therollingstones/jum … o/1569073/
and talking of what you can do with lites and an open tuning, here is Jace Everett with the True Blood theme song in full ( I wanna do bad things to you ) LS delta of course !

You Can’t Do That On Television was a popular show in 1979.
Society was a lot more open to joking about school corporal punishment and spanking thirty five years ago than it is now. Dollars to donuts you wouldn’t see this scene on television. BTW good luck finding a donut for a dollar.
Ruth Buzzi of Rowan & Martin Laugh fame was a featured guest. I watched in high school and was a controversial show for its political criticism of the Vietnam War.
The star of the show was Christine Moose McGlade. During the classroom scene, Ruth spanks Rodney. Christine asks if that hurts and Ruth proceeds to spank her.

Sorry second image was incomparable Ruth Buzzi in this posture. Sorry for the repeat.
<div style=”width:100%;background-image:url(/realm/A_L_123/A_L_trg.gif);”>Hi American Way,
I claim no expertise in this field, but clearly the learned judge was talking about American women born at least as far back as 1863 (40 years back from 1903) Life expectancies are a very complex subject, particularly extending that far back and after a quick look I have given up trying to factor in this and other things which should be considered in an accurate calculation.
Instead I’ll fall back onto a very rough and ready calculation based on the average life expectancy of a baby girl born in the UK. In 1901 this was 49 years. For a newborn baby girl born in early 2011 it was 82 years.
It seems reasonable, and only fair to ladies, to assume that the average spanking age for women will have similarly extended upwards to match life expectancy. If our 1901 baby girl could, if she was so inclined, expect to be spanked until she was 40, then her 2011 counterpart might reasonably expect to be spanked until she was at least 67. Again only if she was so inclined of course!
Even a lady born around the same time as me, 1942, life expectancy 65 years or so at birth, could if so inclined reasonably expect to be spanked until she was 53. And of course life expectancy increases (up to a point at least) with age attained, so those of my female contemporaries who so wish may well still be within their extended spanking age.
Very regrettably I am not able to report if this is the case.
However hints dropped from time to time in this estimable Forum convince me that if the learned judge was pontificating on the subject today he would find himself in a great deal of trouble if he did not extend the upper limit of his spanking age for women somewhat beyond 40! Conversely of course he would also find himself in a great deal of trouble unless he set the lower limit well above 5!

1899. Magistrate Wakefield controversial decision wives can beat their husbands.
Full story first column upper left.
Headline news.
Sometimes a story gathers little attention such as the judgment of Magistrate Mackenzie Matheson in Vancouver that later becomes a part of a bigger story. Where you can spank your wife is not a simple matter of anatomy but geography as well? Where can you use a hairbrush on her anatomy?
Again kudos to Pittsburgh for picking up this story and fleshing out the details. After I google news it I realize that it had been posted in a fetish oriented site beat me to it. Maureen O’Hara thought John Wayne was spanking Stephanie Powers and Wayne spanked O’Hara. Why does that matter?
If a man could spank both wife and daughter there is little doubt that it would not be a big deal if a male teacher or administrator struck a female miscreant. prof n recently said that few girls in the school requested a female paddler. Perhaps they’re comfortable if a woman is present. It made, according to the news story, Amber Page uncomfortable not to have a woman present. Was it the embarrassment factor or the feeling of being sexually exploited in high school. It certainly is a no brainer today not to have a person of the same gender present in light of false allegations? IMHO it should not be an option that a professional adult female be present when corporal punishment is administered. When did that gender consideration enter the discussion. Perhaps it was the Senate hearing of Shelley Gasperhson or maybe the high profile of the Supreme Court allowing it.
I was returning to Vancouver Magistrate Mackenzie Matheson who sentenced a wife to be spanked by her husband and came up with some interesting headlines. While he isn’t quite as memorable as Magistrate Conorton of Long Island City New York, nonetheless he is a force to be reckoned with. I would love to be a spectator in the courtroom but not in the dock.
Vancouver Magistrate Mackenzie Matheon funny headlines.
Police may dress in kilts.
Pantomiming and egg throwing fight between married deaf mutes in court.
One of my favorite is Magistrate Harris spanking decision of a 32-year-old man.
