THREE HAILED TO COURT
ON TRUANCY CHARGES

Three violators Of the state law re-
gardng the truancy cf children were
called before Judge Lockhart Tues
day morning by orders of the state
truant officer, Ira Howell and the
county superintendent They We're the
fathers of children who have not been
attending school.
John Green of Twin Brooks has not
been sending his daughter to school
and was given fine of $40 and costs
amounting to s23. In the Henry Buse
case it was found advisable to con-
tinue the case for further develop-
ments. In the Fred Schweer case, it
was found that the law had not been
Intentionally broken and that the par
ties concerned had misunderstood
conditions and the case was continu-
ed.
This action on the part Of the state
tluant officer is the first effort on the
part of the state department to en-
force the ~laws on the statues. The
law says that all children between the
ages of 6 and Is should attend school
and parents who violate this law are
subject to arrest and fines.
Several cases wherein the parents
were almost destitute were called to
the attention Qf the officer and an eff
fort will be made to clothe the children
so that they may attend school This
is the only excuse that can possibly be
entertained and all othe; violations
will be prosecuted in the future.
Every child should have at least a
common school education and to de-
prive him of that places upon his
shoulders handicap from which he
will never be able to escape. More
especially now when conditions will
require every man to meet competi-
tion and be able to win his way in
the face of greater handicaps than
formerly child without the proper
education and training in his child
hood days will have hard time to
succeed.

And our sun has set at last,
Well met once more in heaven above,

Immense sums Of Federal money TO

foundation for a new highway sys-
tom. Under the provisions OF the
Townsend bill the Federal aid to
the states can no longer be used

provides that each state must desi8.

mileage as part OF a primary sys.

ance. Sixty per cent. OF the funds
allotted by the Federal government
may be used on these primary high.
ways.
This system OF alloclting Fed
eral funds to the construction AMI
maintenance OF interstate and pri.
mary highways ls the basis for i
nation-wide system OF roads which
will have a most constructive and
far-reaching effect" says Mr.. Wal
ter c. Davis, secretary and sale
manager OF the Davis Motor Car
company. Main highways will be
built first. Interstate highways
properly should be built with Fed.
