SUPERINTENDENT GARR
IS AFTER TRUANTS
tTulfllltng Whnt He Proclaimed in
His Annual Report Submitted Last
June Two Arrests Made Saturday
' and Moie Likely to Follow.
In his tiiinuut report, HUliinlttcd to the
jchnol board at Its meeting In July.
City Jbiperlnlcndolit of Schools -Klinor
: 15. Chirr dciill with the enforcement of
the ctiiutii1foiy education at;t, as fol
lows:
"Never holme In tlilH school district
whs such an aggressive policy pursued
leading to tlir enforcement of the com
pulsory t'ditoatloii act. The fact that at
the beginning of tliu lust term there
was an increase of only twenty-seven
'over the coriesponillng month of the
prec'edlng' term, while at the close of
the previous term there wax an Increase
of 1!W over the number at the close of
the previous term, should be at least
some evidence of what was ticcom;
pllshed In this respect and also afford
some encouragement of what can be
accomplished If the proper methods are
Bin-sued.
"No employer of child labor should
keep In his employ children below the
uge of li! years, who are not able to
read and write the Kngllsh language
Intelligently us the law reiiulres. Eni
ployprs and parents should be more
considerate for the future welfare of
the children. Children should be kept
In school until they have at least a fair
understanding of the Kngllsh branches;
in fact, their1 are very few cases where
children should be allowed to discon
tinue at school before having completed
the grammar grade work. 1 earnestly
time the strict enforcement of the law
in Its entirety the ensuing school term."
Superintendent (larr Is now carrying
out the threat or promise Implied In
this portion of his report. Xotwlth
tandlng the numerous notltieatlons to
parents and the arrests made during
this term, there Is a noticeable disposi
tion among certain parents to disre
gard the law ;md the friendly winn
ings from the superintendent. This
tendency has grown so of late that
patience has ceased to be 11 virtue with
Sir. fSarr, and he has inaugurated n
movement against tmrents that he
firmly proposes to carry on with vigor
and perseverance until this lax spirit
be broken.
The first step in this awakened move
ment was on Saturday, when Truant
Oflicer .loseph Maunloii anested .John
Santanna and John Harris, of the Bel
mont section, ami took them before
Alderman linker, of the First ward, on
charges of truancy.
As indicated, there are a number of
parents who persist In Ignoring the law,
whose elreunistniiet's, It is claimed, per
mit them keeping tlielr children at
school. It the steps that have been
taken fall to bring an Immediate re
sponse, prosecutions will fallow and
will be carried on unrelentingly and
with no thought of leniency where It is
established that there Is either woeful
indifference or willful disrezard. Tru
ancy must cease, Is the ultimatum of
Superintendent fJarr. and with the aid
of Truant Oflicer Mannlon and the
power of the law this edict will become
rffeelive.
Hehrueder, the extensive contractor, of
Sci Hilton, has the coniraot, somewhat
of n departure from Ills methods, and
will hustle the construction, It will be
a boon to Oarbondale miners when the
breaker will have been completed. The
Coalbrook breaker Is woefully Inade
quate, full time being virtually out of
the itiicstlon,
