Without departing from the text Of

Portland, April 10, 1906.
ITO the Editor:
"My attention has been called to an
editorial in your paper under date OF
March 2lst, bearing on the child labor
situation in this state.
"You are correct as to the history Of
the present law but there are some
points about which there seems to be
some confusion. Section Of the law
provides as follows.
g" Attendance at school shall be COM
pulsory upon all children between the
ages Of eight and fourteen years in all
cities towns and villages Of the State Of
Oregon during the whole Of the school
term in the city town or village in which
the child resides and upon all children
in such city, town and village between
the ages Of fourteen and sixteen years
who are not employed in some lawful
work.
"This covers exactly the point re-
ferred to in your editorial and if taken
advantage of by those interested in the
protection of our boys would do much
towards solving the problem.

ment of the law is not altogether true
