 Edward Gibson of East Putnam was arrested by Constable Hermon G. Car yer, Friday afternoon on a warrant charging him with neglecting to send his two children one aged and the other II. to school. The complaint was drawn by the prosecuting attor- ney on information presented by Louis A. Batty, truant officer. Gibson plead ed guilty to the charge. Mir. Batty told the court that February 9th he had called on the defendant and told him he must keep his children in school He called him on the tele- phone later and told him that if the children were not in school by We'd nesday morning he would take legal action. Gibson was defiant and told him to go ahead as soon as he wart,ed to. The only excuse the defendant onered vas that the children didn't have sufficient clothing and that he had neglected to get them any. He was sentenced to pay a fine of g on each count and costs Of $4eo and ex- ecution of the sentence in regard to the fines was suspended until after school closes in June with the under standing that if the children are reg ular in attendance during that time the fines will be renitted.
