THE UNIVERSAL CAR There are more than 3,000,000 Ford cars in daily service throughout the world, and fully eighty percent of these are Ford Touring Cars. There are many reasons for this, not the least of which is the simplicity in the design of the car, so easy to understand; likewise it is easy to operate; and mighty inexpensive compared to other motor cars. On the farm, in the dty, for business and for family pleasure, it is the car of the people, and the demand is increasing every day. Let us have your order promptly .if you want one. Mr. and Mrs. H.

ENFORCEMENT OF SCHOOL LAW OBLIGATORY State officials have called for the enforcement of the school law, which reads as follows: Every parent, guardian, or other person having control of any minor between 16 and 18 years of age or any minor under 16 years of age who has completed the lighth grade, shall be required to send such minor to a regular public or private sch.ool at least 30 weeks each school year, unless such minor is legally excused to enter employment. The law referring to children between the ages of 8 and 16 reads practically the sam as the above, except that no provision is made to excuse such children to enter employment. Children between the ages of 8 and 16 are required to attend school SO weeks; and in order to comply with the law they must enter school not later than next Monday, September 29. Children of the following types may be excused: 1. Those whose physical or mental condition is such as to render attendance impractioable. 2. Those wbo have completed the senior high school. Those whose' services are necessary to the support of a mother or an invalid father. Blanks for making application for permission to enter employment may be secured from the principal of the school the boy or girl should attend. Such applications are to be filed at the office of the superintendent of schools; and if they are approved, legal permits to enter employment will be issued. Reports from school authorities indicate that, with few exceptions, the new school law is being complied with. Next week two truant officers, deputy sheriffs, will begin a canvas to ascertain those who are violating the law. Offenders are to be reported to the county attorney for prosecution.
