A newly enacted state-wide compulsory school attendance law brings
Tennessee into line with its neighbor Kentucky. Attendance at school is
required of all between the ages of eight and fourteen and of all
between fourteen and sixteen who are not “actively and regularly and
lawfully” employed or who are unable to read and write. This new law
takes from the map printed in THE SURVEY of February 15 one of the five
gray southern states that have had compulsory attendance only in certain
counties.
