W. A. Johnson, truant officer for

the county schools will open on Mon.
day, July IS. He desires also to
have stated that the Court of Ap-
peals has decided that all children be-
tween the ages of Z and 10 shall at
tend school every day.
We regret to say that in the past
some parents have given considera-
BILE trouble in this county by refus-
ing to send their children to school
and in a few cases ii was necessary
TO impose fines. Why father is un,
willing to allow his child the advan-

cation is something which we do not
understand, but it is this condition
that makes the above mentioned law
necessary, and there is every assur.
ance that this law will be enforced.
