Since Mr. King has been appointed to the School for the Blind it is now uggested that the county commis sioners appoint Mr. Abbott to the fflce of county superintendent when the vacancy in the office occurs.

The Truancy Law. It the truancy law Is a good thing, why is it not more thoroughly en forced? We have observed a number of boys at various times loafing around town, when we knew their parents thought they were at school. A boy cannot expect to do any good at study by going to school one day and staying away the next. There are some who do this and they are pretty good-sized boys, too. AlmoBt young men. They know they are not doing right, and this being the case, the truant officer should get right after them and take them right into the school room. The law should be enforced, and vigorously, too, and the officer should make no difference as to whom the boys belong to either. If parents want their boys to go t& school, the truant officer should see that they attend regularly. More "Suckers" Going.
