SCHOOL LEGISLATION.
The following are provisions of the law of the State in regard to the employment of children, attendance and truancy.
No child under fourteen years of age shall be employed in a factory, workshop or mercantile establishment, nor in any other way for wages while the schools are in session.
No child under sixteen years of age shall be employed in any factory, workshop or mercantile establishment unless the employer :
I. Procures and keeps on file, and accessible to truant offi-, cers, the district police and inspectors of factories, age and schooling certificates for all such children employed.
2. Keeps two complete lists of all such children employed, one on file and one conspicuously posted near the principal entrance of the building where such children are employed. In all cases an employment ticket, duly made out and signed is required before an age certificate can be granted. (Blanks may be obtained of the Superintendent.)
Compulsory attendance of all pupils between the ages of seven and fourteen years is now required for the entire school year, instead of thirty weeks as formerly.
These three classes of children may be sent to the truant school or elsewhere:
I. Habitual truants-Children between seven and fourteen years of age, who are habitually absent from school.
2. Habitual absentees-Children from seven to sixteen years of age who may be found on the streets, not attending school, having no lawful occupation, and growing up in idle- ness and ignorance.
3. Habitual school offenders-Children under fourteen who persistently violate the reasonable regulations of the school, or otherwise misbehave so as to render themselves fit subjects for exclusion therefrom.
Any person having under his control a child between seven

SCHOOL LEGISLATION.
and fourteen years of age, who fails for five days, or ten half days, within any period of six months, to cause such child to attend school, shall forfeit and pay a fine.
Any person who induces a child to absent himself unlaw- fully from school, or who employs or harbors a child unlaw- fully absent shall be fined.
[Acts of 1898, Chap. 496, Sect. II.]
No child who has not been duly vaccinated shall be ad- mitted to a public school except upon presentation of a certifi- cate signed by a regular practicing physician that such child is an unfit subject for vaccination. No child who is a member of a household in which a person is sick with small-pox, diph- theria, scarlet fever or measles, or of a household exposed to contagion from a household as aforesaid, shall attend any pub- lic school during such sickness, or until the teacher of the school has been furnished with a certificate from the board of health of the town or city, or from the attending physician of such sick person, stating in a case of small-pox, diphtheria or scarlet fever, that a period of at least two weeks, and in a case of measles a period of at least three days, has elapsed since the recovery, removal or death of such person, and that danger of the conveying of such disease by such child has passed.
