COMPULSORY EDUCATION.

II would be well for parents and
state compulsory education law. A
clear understanding of the law will
guard them against the trouble
which will follow noncompliance
with its provisions.
The section defining the duties of
parents is as follows:
Every parent, guardian or other
person in the state of Nevada, hav-
ing control or charge of child or
children, between the ages of eight
and fourteen years, shall be required
to send such child or children to a
public school for period of at least
sixteen weeks in each school year,
at least eight weeks of which shall
be consecutive. unless such child or
children are excused from such at
tendance by the board of school trus-
tees of the school district in which
such parents or guardians reside, up
on its being shown to their satisfac-
ton that the bodily or emntal condi-
ton of such child or children has
been such as to prevent his or her
or their attendance at school or APP
plication to study for the period re-
quired. or that such child or chill
dren are taught in private school
or at home, in such branches as are
usually taught in primary schools, or
have already acquired the ordinary
branches of learning taught in the
public schools; provided, in case n
public school shall not be taught for
a period of sixteen weeks, or any
part thereof, during the years, with
in two miles, by the nearest travelled
road, or the residence of any person
within the school district, he or she
shall not be liable to the PROVISIONS
of this act.
The law requires the school trus-
tees of each district to take CEN
sus every year of the children be
tween the ages of eight and four
teen years, and to furnish the prin-
cipals OF schools with a list OF the
names. If, al the expiration of four
months, il is found that parents or
guardians have failed to comply
with the provisions of the act, the
offenders are to be fined by the jus
tice of the peace OF the district.
