PARENTS CHANGE
 PASSPORT DATES WOULD HAVE CHILDREN EM. PLOYED BEFORE THEY REACH
 AGE OF FOURTEEN Agent Giles Holds Paper
Of 22 Applicants for Certificates, But Nine Received Them-Ffne of $6O Provided for Each Week of Viola tion of Law Governing Employment of Children.

of Children.
 State Agent Giles Potter of the State Board of Education, who is now in Bridgeport, is coping with many schemes by which parents seek to ob- tain his certificate that their children are IA years of age and may 60 to work. Forgery is a trick that has been resorted to by some parents. Hun'bert Santarelli this morning pre- sented an Italian passport purporting to show that he was born March 1. 1895. But Agent Potter upon scan- ming the instrument reached the con- clusion that the year had been erased and new date written in. This con- clusion was confirmed when it appear ed that the same paper showed the age of the boy in 1907 as Il years. Whoever changed the figures neglected to do a complete job. MT. Potter re- fused the certificate.
 Another boy told the agent that he was IA years of age, but his passport, issued in 1904, showed that he could not be so old. This passport also gave the appearance of having been altered. MT. Potter held it and asked the boy to come again next week.
 Last week 22 applications were made for certificates, but only nine were is- sued This week applicants are more numerous. Few are able to pass the examination in the simple studies that are required. The anxiety of the par ents of these children to get them into the factories indicates a deplorable condition of poverty.
 The law provides that no child un- der IA years of age shall be employed in a manufacturing or mercantile es- tablishment- The penalty for viola ton is $6O for each week. The em- ployer is liable as well as the parent. It is not a defense for the employer that the parent gave the age of the child as over 14, but the employer must have a certificate of the proper author ity stating that the child is of the legal age to work.

O,hu Defeated
Cavalry AT Polo

Oahu won the polo game by very
narrow margin on Saturday last at
Leilehua and, had 1t not been for
two fouls, the Fighting Fifth would
have surely landed the honors. Sher-
idan played the game of his life and
scored no less than three goals; his
riding was splendid and his hitting
as clean as 1t could possibly be.
Quekemeyer also did good work,
and his passing to Sheridan helped
lot in the scoring, The horses OF
the Cavalry were much better than
they had last time and the general
play all around was much improved.
A large crowd OF spectators made
the trip out, and the roofing for the
respective sides was immense. When
the Firth scored their first goal the
fair fans of Leilehua went simply
mad with JOY, and the Honolulu
bunch looked glum.
Fleming, however, came to the
rescue, and 1t was he who scored for
the Oahu team with a clean hit that
carried the ball straight between the
posts.
Walter Dillingham; played beau
tiful game, and his riding of was a
feature of the game.
All the local men played well. and
baldwin and Fleming were very safe
Major Potter also did good work,
but the star player OF the day was
Lieutenant Sheridan, who hardly
made Il mistake or miss-hit.
The final scores We're: OAHU
goals, 2 fouls, points. Fifth Cav
alry---3 goals, 3 points.

Lawrence Gazette: The wise legis-
lature we have voted to permit the
teaching Of agriculture in the county
high schools. The farmer members
voted against it, but the town mem
,bers were sure that the country boys
ought to be taught agriculture in the
high schools, and so put that clause
in. And that is where the city fell
lows we're right. They well know
that the country fellows do not know
what they want. Possibly they got
the idea from Mr.. Roosevelt, who sent
a lot Of city bred millionaireS around
the country to inform the farmers OF
their needs and shortcomings. OF
course the farmers gave the city fel-
lows a loud horse laugh, out that did
not deter the city fellows at all. They
were drawing big salaries and big ex-
penses to tell the farmers what they
needed, and II the poor. deluded
farmers didn't know, then it was the
duty Of the high priced committee to
tell them. That was what they we're
paid for, and they were trying to
earn their per diem.
