There is just one method of wiping
out the sweatshop, and that is to pat
ronize the union label. The mother
who insists that our label appear on
the suit she buys for her little boy
is doing her share toward preventing
the boy of some other mother from
being sentenced to life of unrequited
toll in foul sweatshop, fearless
funeral and a grave in the potter's
field. She is helping to give honest
employment under fair conditions to
an adult man or woman and to drive
out the awful evil of child labor. If
we could impress these facts upon the
public mind with enough force we
would soon drive out the sweatshops
and have our children in the schools
instead of in the mills and tene-
ment workshops.-Eight Hour Advo-
