MUNICIPAL COURT
Two Cases Of Violation Of School
Laws Threshed out

The only matters with which the mu-
nicipal court had to do at it's Tuesday
morning session We're two cases which
had for their foundation the violation
of the school laws. In the first of
these Mrs. Annie Coulombe was arraign-
ed before the court on the charge of
not sending her children, six in all, to
school. The complainant in the case
was Truant Officer Charles r. Brunette
and the plea entered by the respondent
was that of not guilty. Mrs. Coulombe
conducted her own case and he r defence
was that she sent her children to school
every day and supposed that they went.
The court had no difficulty in finding her
guilty. and while the law provides as
a penalty in such a case a fine not to
exceed s25 or an Imprisonment of 80
days for each offense, the court was
lenent and continued the case to Tuest
day. May %, at 10 A. NJ.
The second case was that Of Theo-
dore Coulombe, aged Is years. a son Of
Mrs. Coulombe, who was arraigned on
the charge of truancy, to which he
pleaded not guilty. 1t was shown how
ever that the boy had been absent from
school 70 days since January and he
was promptly declared guilty. Sem
tence was however suspended with the
understanding that the boy was to leave
the city Tuesday night for Lawrence,
Mass. to make his home with an older
brother.
Besides Theodore Coulombe the other
children are Jean. aged IA years;
Jeanne, aged IS years; Eugene, aged IL
years; Armand, aged 10 years and Hen
ri, aged years. OF these Eugene
has only been absent Is IL days since
January, but Henri holds the record,
! having been absent 100 days.

WITH THE MOVIES
GRAND

That truth is sometimes stranger
than fiction is powerfully illustrated
in the history of that world famous
couple, Mr.. and Mrs. Vernon Castle,
whose lives will be shown in all the
remarkable detail in the big photo
play production, The Whirl of Life, y
which comes to the Grand Theatre
tomorrow, matinee and night shows.
AS the name of Mr.. and Mrs. Yer
non Castle is linked throughout the
world with the art Of dancing, no pic
ture Of their lives would be absolutely
complete without some dancing cpl
sodes and the "Whirl of Life" not
only contains a number of ballroom
and cabaret scenes, in which this
requisite is supplied, but it also shows
a new dance step, called, ~"The Cas-
tie Glide,' which the talented couple
quite accidentally discovered during
the making of one of the scenes. 1t
will make a big hit with young and
old when it is mastered.
