An Alarming Situation.
(Comunicated)


over twenty-five per cent of the
school population of this county is not
enrolled in any school. What is the
cause of this alarming situation What
can be done to remedy the indifler-
ence? The cause of this situation
comes from the Indifferent parents
VINO do not know the need of an
education. This can only be remedied
by a compulsory school law which
forces them to send their children to
school. But says one, "This is free
country, and it is against the spirit
OF our constitution for law to invade
the sacred precincts of the home and
say, what we shall or shall not do
with our own children.
Let this be as it may, am one
who believe that if the parent is so
indifferent to the situation that the
law should force him to do what is
best to make good citizens out of his
children. After all, the soul object
in education should be to prepare the
young to cope with the future de-
mands of society in the great struggle
Tor existence, and to enable them to
bring out the God given powers and
use them in all of life's activities that
may help and not hinder them in their
future development.
Any man who stands in the way of
his own child's development and ed
ucation that enables him to be better
factor in society by increasing his
powers of productions; should be forced
to do so by the strong arm of the law
let 1t be against the spirit Of the con-
stitution. X
