Calumet'S Truant Of
ficer Finds Plenty
to Do.
Boys Still Stay From School
"A Large Party Of Them Form a Club
90 Fool the Omcer-The Leader
Put I'm jail

The truant officer is still kept busy and
the number of youngsters who do not
want to attend school is not decreasing
very fast, although the cold weather is
school. Officer Silyola certainly has
troubles OF his own, for every day he is
compelled to chase dozen or two boys
who persistently refuse to go to school
and whose parents do not appear to be
very much concerned whether they do or
not. The officer says that in many cases
where he has gone to the parents and
asked them to assist him to zee that
their children are going to school regu.
larry he is informed, not always in the
most pleasant manner possible, that he
can attend to his own affairs and that
they are perfectly capable OF attending to
their own children and it is their business
alone il they want them to 60 to school or
not while the law very explicitly says that
the parents are responsible for their chill
dren and are required to see that they
do go to school and the parents az well
as children are liable to punishment for
neglect in this regard.
The number OF parents who treat the
officer in this manner are fortunately
small and in most cases the officer is
greatly assisted by the parents in seeing
that the children are in school all the
time. From the number OF examples
that have been made OF unruly boys OF
late it was thought that most of the
playing "hookey" would become fright
eued, but it does not seem to have the
desired effect.
A Jew days ago the officer succeeded in
running down a gang OF youngsters who
had vertically formed a club with the
avowed purpose OF having good time
and not attending school. The boys
had sort or organization with a lad
about 16 years OF age at the head. He
was dubbed "Coxey," sometimes with
the general" but more often just simply
Coxey" and his boys were the army"
They had headquarters on Pine street
and got to be notorious for the many
tricks they played on the officers and the
various schemes they resorted to in order
to AVOID going to school. "Coxey
seemed to be the leading spirit OF the
order, for after the truant officer laid his
hands on him and put him behind the
bars for few hours he weakened and
promised to behave himself in the future
under a penalty OF being sent to the re-
form school, The order broke up after
athe leader was run in by the officer.
