PARENTS
WARNED TO SEND
BOYS TO SCHOOL

While the arrival of the Christmas
holidays has resulted in a temporary
suspension of the work in order that
the little folk may enjoy their amuse-
ments unmolested, a vigorous move
ment to compel parents to see that
children are sent regularly to school
has been inaugurated in Orange, and
Truant Officer Fred McCullom, backed
by the Board of Education, Superin-
tendent Riggs and the school princi-
pals, mas begun a crusade to compel
strict obedience to the. school laws,
which require daily attendance at
schools of children.
Several parents were slated today by
the police and were brought before
Judge Bray in the police court, where
the school authorities were in attend
ance. Judge Bray put the hearing of
the cases over to January 3 to avoi
any diminution of enjoyment by the
children and their elders of Christmas
week.
Judge Bray announced, his intention
to issue warrants for those who did
not obey the summons to appear in
court. These warrants will be served
tonight, and the parents will be held
to answer for their alleged neglect to
send children to classes regularly.
In announcing his attitude toward the
prosecution of parents Judge Bray said:
The law is very clear on the ques-
ton of compelling regular attendance
at schools, and, while the duty is an
unpleasant one for the schoo authori-
ties n myself, still we must compel
parents to respect the law and send
their children to school as required.
No hardships are intended for the par
ents, and cooperation by the parents
with the school authorities in sending
the children to classes regularly will
bring about a satisfactory solution OF
this problem"

well off the base and Burch seeing this
threw to catch him, but instead OF try

was at his best when errors put him
at disadvantage. Gray for Washing

record of but one hit against him, but
early in the ninth, while pitching, he
strained his side and was forced to re-
tire. Groome succeeded him and did
remarkable work, both in pitching and
