Schools for
Children Whose
Parents Have No
Legal Residence

one OF the most Troublesome
Iroblems in connection with our
schools is the proper care of the chill
oren or families who move from
place to place with portable saw
mills, says Commissioner Augustus
.. Thomas of the Maine department
or education. in statement issued
FRIDAY on the subject, Our Schools. :
IN most cases." DR.. Thomas con-
| tinues, the mills are located long
distances from established schools,
me parents have no legal residence
IN the town and do not come under
/ the provisions of Section 80 Of
Chapter 16 of the Revised Statutes
Of the State, which gives all chill
Gren between the ages of five and
twenty-one free school privileges In
| the town in which the parent or
| guardian has legal residence.
| THE fact that these people have
no legal status in the town in which
, they sojourn initiates seriously
against the privileges of education
for their children. In most cases,
transportation Is required and often
| over difficult roads at heavy ex-
pense. The town cannot be expected
to bear this burden. In many in
stances, the parents do not have
sufficient means to satisfactorily
handle the problem. The children
, are unnecessarily handicapped.
Under our compulsory education
| laws. the children come within the
jurisdiction of the school committee
and the superintendent Of schools
of the town from which the family
came and in which the parent has
| legal residence. In most cases,
| these people move into these camps
without notifying the school officers
and the problem Of keeping track OF
the children is a difficult one,
In all cases, we have recommend
ed 10 the towns where these people
are located that such children be
given Tree access to the schools
where it can he done without
seriously initiating against the well
fare of the schools and without re-
quiring the town in which the
temporary residence is maintained to
pay out sums of money which would
cripple the efficiency of education
for their own children. II IS crafty
ing to note that in most instances
towns are willing to do this. but the
burden Of transportation falls large
ly upon the parent. We are now
working with the question of finding
some Fellei lor tne problem. Inc
most satisfactory solution would be
to place these children under the
jurisdiction of til. towns in which
they temporarily reside and arrange
for the state to contribute to the I'M
usual expense of getting them to
school. 1t would seem proper for
the locality and the state to make
provision for the education Of the
children wherever the parent may
go In pursuit of livelihood, as he

Dismisses Petition
For Bus Line, New
HarbOr to ROckland

The Public Utilities Commission
issued an order Friday Diminishing
the petition of Carroll =. Winchen-
baugh of Nobleboro for authority to
operate q motor vehicle for the
carrying of passengers for hire from
New Harbor to Rockland, passing
through and serving South Bristol.
New Harbor. Bristol Mills. Damaris-
Gotta, Damariscotta Mills, Noble
boro. Waldoboro, Warren and Rock
land
1.-The proposed line" says the or
der of the Commission, would be
operated in competition with the
White Line Bus Company between
Rockland and Waldoboro and in
competition with the Maine Central
Railroad between Rockland and
Damariscotta. So far as appears, no
other passenger transportations SER
wee is being conducted between New
Harbor and Damariscotta, The ser
wee now being offered by the rail-
ROAD between Damariscotta and
Rockland is reasonably adequate to
meet all the present demands. We
do not, therefore, feel justified in
authorizing further competition TO
the railroad company along this part
OF the proposed route. On that por-
tloh OF the proposed route between
Damariscotta and New Harbor not
served by the railroad, we find no
objection to authorizing service by
TINS petitioner, if such service be de-
sired by him. On application, there
lore. certificate authorizing such
service, including through service
TO and from Rockland, will be is
sued. The petition in its present form
however, must be dismissed"
