Says That Children of School
Age in Mason County viii Be
Compelled to Attend
School This Year.

County Superintendent of Schools
Turnipseed yesterday stated that the
new state compulsory education law
which is very stringent will be rigidly
enforced during the present season.
The government authorities are urg-
ing upon all young folks to attend
schools and the schools>are doing ev-
erything they can to cooperate with
the farmers and other workmen by
giving their working children every
advantage possible but they expect
the children to attend school as soon
as it opens and attend regularly I'M
til the season is closed.
During the past seasons the old
state law was enforced rather care
fully in this county but the new law
in this state will be enforced more
rigidly than was the old law accord
ing to Prof. Turnipseed.
The trustees will decide on the
opening date of their various schools
in short order and will inform the pa
irons of their districts as to the eX-
act opening date and all students will
be expected to be on hand. .
