WITNESS Is DRUNK;
CASE Is CONTINUED

Accused of assault with a deadly
weapon Matt Kawanski faced Police
Magistrate Gustafson this morning.
His accuser was Axel Grenawicz, who
claimed that the defendant attacked
him with a knife in the saloon of
J. P. O'Neill at 913 Fourth avenue, last
night. AS evidence of an encounter he
showed long cash on the forehead
which had been sewed up by a physi-
clan.
Grenawicz denied that he had at
tackled Kawanski, though he said he
had provocation for doing so, the lat
ter interrupting conversation he was
holding with a friend and using bad
language. GrenawicZ admitted that
he was intoxicated during the evening.
Owing to the fact that Kawanski's
chief witness was said to be in the
same condition this morning and there
fore unable to appaer in court the case
was continued for "a hours to enable
him to sober up.

TRUANT OFFICER
DISCUSSES LAW
May Be Necessary to Force
Children Who Are Working
to Attend School.

Mrs. Carrie O'Conner, truant officer
of the Moline public schools, suggests
a test of the truancy law in some of
the cases which have been brought to
her attention lately. In her report for
the month of September, just filed,
sh lays stress upon the provision ap-
plying TO children between IA and 16
years of age who are exempt from
school attendance only if necessarily
and lawfully employed" Discussing
this class the truant officer says:
In such cases the parent must be
able TO prove to the court that il is
necessary for the welfare of the fam
lily for such child TO be working. There
are a few cases that will have to be
tested in court if the children are not
returned to school. In some cases,
particularly where from three to five
members of the family are already
working, as soon as the boy reaches
the age of IA years he is sent to work
In such cases the boy is not neces
sarily employed and he is not given
fair chance for an education. The
penalty for the neglect of duty pre-
scribed by this section is a sum moi
less than S. and not more than S2C
and costs.
Moline continues to grow rapidly
and there are many newcomers with
whom the school authorities are anx
ious TO cooperate"
During September the truant Officer
investigated "a non-attendance cases
Six of these were children of schoo
age who were at work. All were re
turned TO school when proper notice
was given. There were three cases O
habitual hardness and Is cases o
irregular attendance, the fault of in
different parents, according to the re

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
COACH Is PESSIMISTIC

Coach Burroughs is pessimistic. He
does not see how Moline high school
can hope 10 do much with such strong
teams as Monmouth. Danville and
Davenport on the showing that the
eleven has made during the last few
days. In scrimmages the last two days
the first team has had the hardest
kind of work in making any gains on
the second eleven. A full game was
played yesterday and the regulars
scored by II points. The coach says
over-confidence should not fatten on
the Upton results. because that team
was the weakest that has been on tho
local field for years. Last Saturday
Monmouth defeated Aledo 80 TO 0,
which indicates that the Warren coun.
ty men are formidable.

line and shortly will take up his duties
in East Moline. Since February he
has been working this vicinity, his
territory being Rock Island, Moline,
East Moline and Silvis.
Conditions in the Moline shops, he
says. are nearly ideal. Deere & Co.
are especially praised for the system
for the promotion OF health of shop
employees upon which $150.000 has
been expended within the last year or
two.
The state factory department is
chiefly concerned with the enforce

child labor, woman's ten-hour, Occupa-
tional diseases, health, comfort and
safety, butterine and ice cream, safety
Of employees in construction of build
ings. and requiring use of blowers in

In Is cases employers in Moline
have been found working children un-

IS TO 80 employers of women have
been found who, while otherwise com.
plying with the 10-hour law, have neg

have been warned and unless they
