ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
How to Enforce Vaccination.

The attorney general says it is
doubtful if the Kansas law authorizes
a city council to pass an ordinance
compelling school children to be vac
cinated. He explains, however, how
practically the same result can be
reached as far as the public schools
are concerned. The city council. he
says. has the power to pass an ordi-
nance, in the interest of the health
of the community, prohibiting pupils
from attending school if they have
not been vaccinated. This gives par
ents the choice of having their chill
dren vaccinated or keeping them out
of school. Then. if the parents keep
their children out, they can be ar
rested for violating the compulsory
attendance law.
