"A book for young mothers and governesses, treating a method of discipline, void of harshness, yet most effective in the correction of faults common to babies and small children."

Authored by Mariam Frederick and published by Child Interest Publishing Company in 1925, Correction that Corrects was stated to have a print run of less than one hundred copies. The now defunct World Human Culture Foundation of McKay College in Los Angeles, California kept a copy. It passed on to the vintage book market and has now been found.

Is there anything in this text about writing lines ?
That is a good punishment when applied harshly

I accept the posting on a fresh thread to advertise your group, but would remind you that this group is called School CORPORAL punishment.

Now go and write 500 times "I must not post off topic items on any groups that clearly identify what and whom they are for".

When you've done that tear up the paper and do it again.

Repeat ad nauseam.
