GROCERIES ARE AN ABSOLUTE
necessity to every human being.
From the day you enter, the world
until the day you leave it you have
to patronize, directly or indirectly, some
grocery store. You have to eat to 'keep
alive. Among the earliest lessons taught
in life is a regard for your diet, by select
ing only fresh and wholesome food, and a
regard for your purse by p'racticing the well
established rules of economy. We can sell
you fresher and better goods and more of
them for cash than you can buy elsewhere
on open account. Look over our stock,
get our prices, and be convinced.

The fact that Oregon has a compul
sory school law was again brought to
light this morning when three tru
ancy complaints reached the county
superintendent's office from the east
end of the county. All three com
plaints were made by George Cal
houn, teacher In district No. 10, Fern
dale. The children not attending
school are John McCauslin, aged 12;
Salntle Smith, aged 10, and Sam and
Eugene Berry, aged 10 and 13 re
spectively. Under the law the parents or guar
dians of children are criminally lia
ble for not sending children to school
and presumably the cases against the
guardians of the above children will
be prosecuted unless they speedily
comply with the law.
The following is a summary of the
compulsory school law, prepared by
Superintendent Welles:
Summitry of Law.
As soon as the school opens, the
district clerk must give to the teacher
a revised copy of his last census re
port, showing the name and age of
every child, and the name and address
of each child's father or guardian. It
Is necessary for the teacher to have
this information In order to comply
with the compulsory education law.
Every child In the district, who has
reached the age of 9 years, must at
tend school regularly during the
whole time the school Is In sessslon.
After the child reaches the age of 14
years, h Is not required ' to attend.
provided he Is regularly and lawfully
engaged in some useful employment.
If not so employed, he must attend
until he becomes 16 years of age.
In Rule XLIV, page 167, of the
School Laws of 1907, teachers are au
thorized to require from parents,
either In person or by written note, In
all cases of absence or tardiness, or
dismissal before the close of school
Section 194 of the same law provides
that the teacher must count all unex
cused absences, and that no excuse
shall be accepted except sickness o
the pupil, or of some member of the
pupil's family, which makes attend
ance Impossible.
The compulsory law does not apply
to eighth grade graduates, or to chil
dren who are attending some other
schdbl regularly. It does not apply
to children between 9 and 10 years of
age if they live more than one and
one-half miles from school, nor to
older children, If they live more than
three miles from school by the nearest
traveled road. At the beginning of
the term and every four weeks there
after the teacher must compare the
hftmes of the children on the register
with those on the clerk's report, and
If the census shows that there are
children who are not attending "school
n the district, whose age Is 9 years
or over, and under 16 years, the
teacher should carefully Inquire Into
hte cause of such non-attendance. If
at this time, or at any other time dur
ing the term, the truancy of any child
amounts in the aggregate to more
than seven half days during any four,
or less number of consecutive weeks,
the teacher must Immediately report
the truancy of such child.
When truancy Is reported, the dls
trlct boundary board will send an or
der to the truant officer to Investigate
the case. A copy of this order will
be sent to the teacher. If, after in
vestlgat.ion, the truant officer finds
that the law has been violated, he will
send a letter to the father or guardian
by registered mall, ordering him to
start the child to school on the fol
lowing Monday morning. He will al
so send a copy of this letter to the
teacher, and if the child does not start
to school on the day named, the
tracher must Immediately report the
fact to the truant officer, so that he
may bring action against the parent
or guardian.
In the administration of this law it
is the duty of district clerks and di
rectors to give such Information and
assistance as they may be able to
give, and any teacher, director, clerk,
or other officer who neglects to per
form his duty may, upon complaint of
any parent or taxpayer In the district
be arrested and fined from $5 to $20.
See page 91, School Laws of 1907.
crossing the river at that point has
been permanently given up.
The fact that the hundreds of,
wooded timbers were taken by the j
farmers and residents of tho city,
without leave or llcenso Is groatly
mourned by the employes of tho rall
roml in this city to whom the timbers
were to have been turned over and
In which the said employes saw an
easy solution of the threatened fuel
famine.
It Is said that at least one farmer
used a six-horse team In conveying
the timbers to his ranch.

COM PA XV TEAKS DOWN
OLD RAILROAD ItKIDGE
The old railroad bridge Just west
of town which was abandoned upon
the completion of the cut-off and the.
new steel bridge, has been torn down
and removed. The railroad company
did the tearing down, while the
ranchers and nearby residents at
tended to the task of removing the
timbers, the dead of night being se
lected for this part of the work.
This bridge was a woden structure
and had been In use for 20 years or
more. When It was found that the
bridge was to be .abandoned by the
railroad company there was talk of
having the county purchase It and
convert the structure Into a wagon
bridge as the need of a county road
crossing the river at that point has
been obvious for several years. Some
negotiations were entered Into with
the railroad people, but the proposi
tion was finally allnwed to drop.
A large part of the abandoned grade
on the south side of the river has also
been carted away and used In mak
ing street grades, so It would seem
that the proposition of having a road
