Put Names on Barns.

Comparatively few farmers place
their names on their barns and seldom
renew the painted Address on the mail
box, but if they realize how interesting
it is to strangers drir:ng through the
country, we believe most of them would
provide means of Identification. A man
from town who comes in contact very
often with his next door neighbor is
often unable to drive to his farmer
friends house On ten or twenty
mile circuit of his own he knows. COM
paratively few of the farms he is pass
ing and these are almost exclusively
the ones which have the owners name
displayed on the barn, etc. The bigger
the buildings the more willing the own
er should be to let people know who
runs them, but no matter how humble
the place may be the owner of any
farm should be proud that he has even
only few acres that he can call his
own and should not object to acknowl-
edge such ownership by coupling his
name to Harvard Herald.

Must Go To School.

Those parents and guardians who may
be little Indifferent in regard to the
regular attendance of their children at
school may save themselves annoyance
and perhaps trouble by becoming in
formed regarding the requirements of
the law on the matter. The law says
every child between seven and fourteen
years must enter some public, private
or parochial school within one month
from it's beginning and attend that
school regularly unless he is sick. Reg
ular attendance is twenty days in the
month. This law also applies to those
between the ages of fourteen and six
teen unless they are legally employed
by permission from the state factory
Inspector or the county judge. Excep-
lions only are made in the following
cases:
1. Those having diploma from the
common schools.
2. Those having diploma from the
9Th grade state graded schools.
3. Those having diploma from the
9Th grade of village or city schools.
4. Those physically disabled who can
furnish the certificate of reputable
physician.
Parents and guardians should remem-
Der that work does not constitute a
legal excuse for non-attendance, and
those responsible for child's absence
from school on these grounds will find
themselves in trouble. Violations of
the law are punishable by fine or i'm
prisonment or both. School officers are
required to see that the provisions of
the law are enforced
