THE SCHOOL Laws.

Compilation of the Acts Passed
 By the Last General Assembly.
 The State Board of Education has con- piled the public acts relating to education passed by the legislature during the session of 1885, and copies will be sent to every school visitor and district committee in the State. Special attention is invited by the Board to ch lpter xc., public acts, for the current year. The act does not repeal any law, but requires in addition that children shall attend school regularly and not be all lowed to remain out of school, and without instruction, when they have attended barely sixty days for the twelve months, or have attained the age of IA years unless they are employed to labor.
 In some school districts rules have been made to promote regularity in attendance, sent certain number of times shall be dis enrolled or deprived of his seat. This law does not affect the operation of such rules, even though the excuse for the absence is that the pupil WAS kept at home to work. Nor will the parent in such case be exempt from the penalty of the law if the child con hnues to be absent from school, unless hay ing attended sixty days, he is steadily em- ployed to work.
 The laws concerning this subject, which have been in force for twelve years, the board state, are fully sustained by public opinion, and the opinion has very generally been ex- pressed that the class of children affected by them should be required to attend school more than three months in each year. In some States the period of attendance re- quired is five months, or one hundred days. While the legislature of this State has not seen fit to extend the period during which children shall attend school each year as condition te their employment. it has passed this law, which, if properly en- forced, will 1n some measure prevent irregu- larity in attendance, and retain In school children who are not otherwise occupied with anything profitable to their parents, or themselves. It is this class which, more than any other, need attention.
 As far as possible, the agent of the board will assist local authorities, when re- quested, in seeing that the laws are enforced, and will attend to cases of violation, when reported to him or the secretary Teachers are especially requested to report cases of delinquency in attendance.
