1t appears that this is the largest en-
rollment at the beginning of the ses.
sion in recent years. The work of the
schools started off briskly from the
beginning. The books were secured
and by the end of the week students
were down to the regular work of the
session.
The enrolment in high school and in
the grades will be increased consider
ably within the next week or ten days,
as there are good many children to
come in to the high school department
and also the grades. In a few COM
munities the smaller children did not
enter promptly at the beginning. The
Compulsory Attendance Law requires
that the children who come under the
age limits of this law, shall enter at
the beginning of the session and con-
tinue as regularly as possible to the
close of the session. 1t is earnestly
hoped that these children will all be
enrolled before the time limit set in
the law when the principals of the
various schools must report them
back as Children not enrolled. This
will save much confusion and possibly
considerable expense on the part of
parents who have failed to enter their
children promptly as the law requires.
Beginning with this year all Com
pulsory attendance cases will be ham
died by the Judge of the Juvenile
Court, as the law gives this court
original jurisdiction over the Com
pulsory Attendance Act. This will
mean that all cases under this F ct will
be called to appear before the Juve-
mile Court in Woodstock. When these
cases are reported, notice will be sent
to the parent. If a child is not then
entered in FIVE days after the notice.
has been sent out, warrant will be
sworn out in the ename of the Com
|monwealth against such parent or
guardian. Parents are most earnestly
requested to give the school officials
full cooperation in this matter, so as
to avoid the necessity of bringing any
of these cases to the attention of the
court. Cooperation lis always much
better method of getting results than
Illegal processes. Furthermore, aside
from the fact that the law requires
these children to be in school, every
parent is tax payer and is paying for
