Jssned i:cry Tliursilii) Morning Foieign Atlvertiiinic RepretenUlive ' THE AMERICAN PRESS 'ASSOCIATION - ' , .,. mt - SC1IOOL NOTKS V. E. VOSS, Superintendent ' This legislature of 1921 passed n now compulsory education law that went into eirect last, July. The law is evidently much stronger than the old1 one in its requirements and fea ture? of enforcements. 'Some of Its provisions are given briefly as follows: "All children between the ages of tteven and sixteen residing within tjireo miles of school must begin to attend school regularly at the open ing of the school year for a time and under the conditions that apply to the respective districts of their resi dences; frequent and complete rc , jfbrts are required to he made by all teachers; school boards arc made re sponsible for reporting violations that can evidently come to their at tention; the penalty is set from $5.00 to. 5100.00 or three months In jail; and a county compulsory attendance offlcer Is provided. This law is good in Itself, but the county commissioners and some oth ers do not seem to want to provide but'.llttle or no money at all for the county compulsory attendance of ficer, while I have known this for sonfe time, I appointed a man as such officer and recommended a cbmpen sation for hint as Is provided by law. I had cut the expense for this, officer ton minimum, while, at the same time, permitting efficient enforce ment according to the apparent plan of the law. The commissioners fail ed. to provide funds' at their last meeting. Meanwhile the enforce ment will mark time and await suffi cient funds to keep this law from be ing carried out us a cheap farce. It will apparently be up to the people to let it be known whether this law Is to be enforced or the money used for other purposes. NUPTIALS. Promptly at the appointed hour, on Saturday morning, September 10, as the beautiful toned pipe organ pealed forth, the notes of a wedding march, efficaciously rendered by Professor Morgan, Miss Margaret Ann Kelliher approached the altar at the Cathedral of, the Epiphany, in SJoux City, to become the bride of Mr. Mlchuel A.

""4uestions asked by farm ers nt these demonstrations brought out the fact that previous trials of this method had been weakened by failure to follow directions exactly and by their inability to get formal dehyde of known and proper strength. Since the farmer has no way of de termining tho strength of the formal dehyde solution it is very important that farmers accept formalin only in sealed bottles on which the strength of the sojution is certified.
