...Ridiculous. Editor Neider's eye-racking job was complicated by the fact that many passages scattered throughout the fading ledger had been deleted-crossed out by a modern pen using blue ink, probably after Fanny's death in 1914. Under the probing rays, the suppressed passages turned out, in the main, to be hasty bursts of irritation over petty matters, which Fanny would no doubt have scratched out herself, had it occurred to her that anyone might ever want to print her diary.

The police look for such evidence as boxes of chalk or bottles of ink. Once they hauled in a teacher and claimed they had caught him red-handed "pointing at a blackboard." But so far, such arrests have been few. When their classrooms are raided, the children simply say they are having a party...
