In a community of the type of 0x- ' ford it should never be necessary to calKto the attention of the 'public a law requiring the public to do cer tain things regarding school atten dance'. No parent should be so thoughtless and act so indifferently regarding the welfare of their chil dren as to be compelled to give them the oportunity offered by the State and community. It is a sad fact, however, vthat there are several families in the Ox ford school district who have -wilfully neglected the education of the children, v '. ! '.. ' v - I wish to state that any person who so plans to act this year should change his views. It is the -desire on the part of the school authorities to operate the wof k on purely coop erative lines. No effort will be made that will injure any one in,' seeing that the child is in school. The names of any who may see fit to keep children out of school for any part of the nine months' term for any reason other than that allow- . ed under the law, will be turned ov er immediately to the proper officer! who will let the law take its course in fine or imprisonment.
