SOME REASONS WHY IRREG
TLAR ATTENDA NCE AT
SCHOOL SHOULD NOT
BE TED.

In tue first place. there is no excuse
for irregular attendance in nine cases
out of ten. For the most trivial caus-
es children arc kept at home, and
sometimes, nay. we are afraid often.
they are allowed to stay home simply
because they want 10. Parents think
that il day NOW and then amounts to
nothing, but they are wotully mistaken.
If it amounts to nothing but Il loss of
interest and an increased carelesSneSs
in school affairs. then it would be bad
enough but tins is the least of the
harm done. The child not only miss
Is one lesson, but he comes back to
school the next day unprepared for
sjr,i, b, llavir. his mimi full Of nll.er
things, and rot knnwinG where his
lessons are. n.Ner comes to his recita-
tons plera,ed.
In the second place. it should not be
provision 10. the free educating OF
every ore If it~ children. and it has d
right to see thai ,iitv ta~c advantage
| Of the opportunities Uttered. The
I State has :, iI.ht to demand that 1t;
: citizens be honest. intelligent and law
! abiding. and to this cld, has establish,
J ed the rnnnan school system. Hcr;tp-t

the agency By wi,icI, this need is to b,
supplied. For this reason irregular o
non-attendance should not be permit
ted.
Last, but by no means least, irregula
attendance should not be allowed be
cause of the injury done the class. |
is u we'll known fact that those win
do not attend school regularly vii
necessarily fall behind their class

mi ss they study hard at home. which
they seldom do, and III so far rs they
lag behind the / class they tend to Re

Here is a boy. for instance. who

because some boys parents allow him

cuse Is it right that the = of the
