There is one and it is being enforced
when the proper authorities know that

of an education to report such cases
to the county superintendent of

A letter warning the parents and
stating the law will be sent first and
if the parents do not respond for the
good of their own children a warrant
will be sworn out and such people
will have to appear in court. Below
