Hiring Children.

AmeElcan ARrtculLurdllst
Parents, being under obligations TO
support and care for their children, are
entitled to their services until they are
twenty-one years old or, If the children
work out, they are entitled to their
wages until that time. When therefore
the farmer hires a hand under twenty
one, he must see to it that he pays the
wages to the party TO whom they be-
long; otherwise he may have TO pay
them twice. Unless the child has been
emancipated, that is, has had his 'timeT
given him, payment to him will not gen:
orally prevent the parent from collecting
payment again. If the child falsely rep
resenis himself to be of age, or emsnci-
pated, such fraud will not prevent the
parent from collecting his wages, or the
value of his services.
A child may become emancIpated by
agreement between himself and parent,
by the parents casting HIM of 70 shit
