Compulsory Education.

The legislature Of Illinois has de-
clared favorably for a compulsory
education law. The bill provides
that parents and guardians shall
cause all minor children under their
care, who are between the ages Of
and IS years, to attend school at
least sixteen weeks in every year.
Wisconsin has had q compulsory
education law on the statute book
since 1879, but it seems to be dead
letter We have not heard Of an in
stance Of its enforcement in this city
or county, although there may have
been cases. There are seen many
boys on the street summer and win.
ter, unemployed, spending their time
in idleness. This class of boys, in
stead of being fitted for useful citi-
zens, are graduating in the school Of
vice and immortality; it is in the
street school where vicious boys do
most congregate day and night. The
law in this state providing for COM
pulsory education is wise one: it
was enacted ten years ago and has
since had some amendments to rem
der it more explicit. The law plain
" preScribes the course of proceed
ing in it's enforcement, the duties Of
school officers and the penalties for
negleCting to comply with it's re-
qnirements. The state provides lib
orally for the education of every
child Of proper age. 1t is by the
general diffusion of education, fitting
every boy to become an intelligent
voter, that the country relies for it's
future perpetuity and welfare. TO
neglect the boon of education, free
ly offered, is nothing less than a
crime against civilized society and
good government. Our wisest men
have pronounced education furnished
by the schools public property indis-
pensable to free government where
the people are the sovereign rulers.
Every boy, therefore, who is not
growing up in iliteracy, should be
compelled to attend school, so that
he may contribute something to the
educational property of the state.
Ignorance is curse, and to escape
the consequences of it, free schools
are everywhere encouraged by wise
provisions Of law School officers
especially have 4 duty to perform
which it is believed is much neglect
ed. There are many wise provisions
Of law on the statute books which
are unheeded, but which, if they
were enforced, would much improve
the condition Of society.
