FACTORIES ROB YOUTH

Dear Aunt Laurie:
I thought l would write on the cur
rent topic SHOULD Children Labor"
say no! And l hope there will be laws
soon that forbid it. The children that
work in large factories are robbed of
their childhood. They are penned up
in the factory all day and shut out from
nature and the sunlight.
These children cannot enjoy their
childhood as the readers of the Junior
do. They do not hive time to play
out in the sunshine because they go
to work early in the morning till late
at night. They cannot go to school to
get an education.
A life of a boy or girl without edu-
cation is a very hard and weary life.
T..ey have to do the hardest kind of
work and are looked down upon. A
child that has to work while they are
young cannot grow to be strong and
healthy when they grow older
Whose fault is it that children have
to work i'm factories from morning till
night? 1t is not the 'children's fault,
but yet they have to suffer for it. 1
don't see why people allow ii and L
think any man that hires a child to
work for him is a stingy, cold-hearted
man.
There are plenty of older boys or
girls, who are strong and old enough
to work, but the foremen hire the
smaller ones to work because they work
for low wages
Let us hope there will be a law which
prevents child labor all over the world
soon. ALINE KAGE.

LAND OF THE soMBRERo

Every Mexican likes to lave a fine
hat or sombrero. These hats, with high,
pointed crowns and broad brims, are
sometimes made of costly material and
decorated with many bands and buckles
of gold and silver. Then they weigh
several pounds and cost, perhaps, two
or three hundred dollars. The plain
sombreros are worn by the poor Mex
leans dwelling in miserable huts in the
country places. Some of these one
roomed homes are built of sun-dried
adobe bricks. To live i'm one of them
must seem like living in box, for each
has a fiat roof, dirt floor, no windows
and but one door.
These country people take their
produce to market on their backs, or
in OK carts, which have wheels made
of solid wood. The wealthy people of
Mexico live in large, beautiful homes.
outside these buildings look rather
plain, but inside they are very rich.
Usually. in the center of the house,
there is lovely garden, so that all the
rooms may open onto 1t. There foun-
tains play, birds sing and flowers send
their fragrance. In parts of Mexico
water is very hard to obtain. Many
people make a business of selling it,
going from house to house with their
large jugs. Usually the water carrier
has two long jars of water strapped to
his head, but those who are more for
tunate carr the water jars in wheel
barrows. Next year Mexico is going
to celebrate the one hundredth ami
versary of her independence.
In that country there is a president,

SCHOOLING is NOT
ALWAYS NECESSARY

Dear Aunt Laurie:
If children should be taken out of
school and put to work to earn a dol
lar or more for their families, what
would become of our future citizens
why, our country would be in a state
of distress. We would not have any
body at the head of the nation. The
children could not earn more when
they grew older and would be extreme
ly ignorant.
People may object to what I have
said and will give me a few examples
of men who were such children. They
could mention Lincoln, who had only
chance to go to school one year in all,
yet he grew up from rail splitter to
our greatest president. Besides him,
they could mention Rockefeller, who
was a poor man to begin with and at
the age of 20 he was only getting 50
or 81 a week and is now president of
the standard Oil company.
The time wasted in work while a
youth could be spent much better il
the child could receive a good educa-
tion, so when he gets big he can have
a good position and a good salary.
In the south child labor exists and
you would see mainly children working
in the mills. All men and women
ought to see that their children receive
a good education and l think that 1t
ought to be adopted by the constitution
that child labor be abolished.

A VERSATILE GARDEN

The dwellers in seaport town OF
Massachusetts, are justly proud of their
gardens. 1t remained for a visitor
from a tiny village "way round the
Cape" to say the first slightly dispar-
aging word of these gardens. isn't
this beautiful" his hostess asked, as
she paused under a rose arbor and
looked back over the stately ranks of
larkspur, monk s-hood, hollyhocks, and
many other favorites.
ITS a handsome gardin-of it's kind,
said the visitor, dispassionately, but
it amt quite up to the mark, when
you consider our gardins."
"Indeed!" and the lady looked at
him, too amazed to be angry. What
sort of gardens have you, please?"
"Well," said her Cape visitor, calm
ly, what we call good gardin is one
where you can start out with two big
baskets and a hoe, step through the
-gardin part, past the vegetables,
down to the water; dig your clans
fust, pick your sweet corn, lay your
posies on top o. that, and hand the
whole lot over at the kitchen door.
There's your shore dinner and trim
minis all from one gardin."

burdens heaped upon their shoulders
and who know naught but cares coull
never grow into the healthy men and
women our nation needs to lift 1t to
a higher atmosphere.
If such are to be the populace of to-
morrow, they will never be able to de-
stroy the crimes. They will be too
weak to do more than to increase it.
Destruction will flaunt herself in their
eyes and in their fright and weakness
she will reach up and overpower them,
destroying forever all trace OF what
had one day been the one nation of
the world. No, we must not permit 1t;
we must remember the children of to-
day are the fathers of tomorrow.

tory, then late at night returns so tired
he can hardly stand? Yet many chill
dren are doing this very thing day af-
ter day.
Adults with the aid of modern ma
chinery can, IL given the opportunity,
produce ten times as much wealth as
the human race can possibly use. Then
why is child labor necessary? Simply
because the child can be hired cheaper
than the adult and production is car
ried on solely for profit.
Is 1t worth while for children to
waste their young lives that the privi-
legged few may live in state and never
soil their delicate hands with toll?
These children will be the next gene
ration and if they are MANNED in child
hood the race will be weaker. Is it
any wonder that the prisons and asy-
lums are filled with criminals and lu-
natics, that so many children are
STEPPED in vice and educated in crime,
that they are dull and stupid, without
Ideals without hope, the only interest
they feel in life being chance for a
little rest? The only way to stop this
evil is to abolish the cause-namely,
the private ownership of the means by
which all must live. Your niece,

THE ouEsTIoNsoME LITTLE GIRL

There is a little girl named Elizabeth
Anne who is very fond of candy Eliz-
abeth Anne is only 8, and she has
habit of asking a question over and
over again, even when it has been
answered as many as nine or ten
times.
Yesterday went to Elizabeth Anne's
house and we all sat in the drawing
room and listened to the phonograph,
and pretty soon Elizabeth Anne said:
Mother. you'll give me candy,
won't you?"
Elizabeth Anne always has a candy
after luncheon, and her mother said:
Yes, as soon as we go upstairs"
And pretty soon Elizabeth Anne said:
Mother, you'll give me candy,
won't you?"
And Elizabeth Anne's mother said:
Eyes, / said l would"
And five or six times more Elizabeth
Anne said: Mother, you'll give me
candy, won't your
At last Elizabeth Anne's mother
laughed and said: Now, Elizabeth
Anne, il you ask me that question any

CHILDREN SHOULD GO TO SCHOOL

Dear Aunt Laurie:
In regard to child labor in the fac
tory. | think it should be prohibited
Poor, puny, little children are pushed
to work in the factories as soon as
they are old enough to work. IL they
are healthy when they start to work
they soon get puny, for what child
can stay strong and healthy when
confined in the factory work room?
With just a scant luncheon and not
much food but bread.
There is the school proposition also
to look at. All the children should
be at their desks in school instead OF
at the benches in the workhouse. If
they do start to school they are soon
taken out and made to toll from early
morn till evening.
No state could do a better thing
than to compel the children to go TO
school, They do have law TO pre-
vent children from working under
certain age, but they are put III under
that age If they get a finger or two
taken off with machinery they nave
to work just the same.
They do not get any OUTSIDE exercise
TO make them healthy. They nave no
time except at night and then they are
too tired. Sometimes they ale too tired
to eat any supper but go right TO PED.
Some factory fore5nen dc NOT care
If small children are put to work, as
child labor is cheaper than men ana
women. LFLA CAMPBELL.

CHILDREN LEARN
BUSINESS METHODS
Dear Aunt Laurie:

Dear Aunt Laurie:
In one sense it is an advantage to
the child to labor because it teaches
him or her methods of business which
are quite essential to manhood or
womanhood. In many cases when a
young brother, sister, invalid mother
or father looks to some older sister or
brother for support it offers chance
for him or her to furnish the living
and provide for the family.
Although child labor is of some ad-
vantage it is of so much more disad-
vantage that II Offsets all the good 1t
does. 1t is bad for the children's
health and does not allow any time
for the education that the child should
have. as no boy or girl can enter an
office and get any salary at all with
out an education.

seY FAILS TO DISCOVER MAGIC
WISHING GATE

Once there was n little boy named
P1under who started out in search OF
the wishing gate to get little carriage
and four little ponies like Tom Ihump.
His fairy godmother told him 10 ASH
the first owl he met. because she dlo
not dare to tell him where 1t was, as
that was against fairy rules. Pretty
soon he came to the forks of the road,
where he saw an old owl asleep in a
tree. Blunder went up to the OWL ana
please. Mr.. Owl, will you tell me
the way to the wishing gate?"
The owl started from his nap and
said:
what have you brought me,
frog?"
that YOU liked frogs. But can you
show me the way to the Wishing
"Follow your nose! Follow your
nose!" and the owl was asleep again in
a minute.
While Blunder was thinking what to
do a chipmunk came along, and Blum
der. said:
show me the way to the wishing
gate?" ,..,
mo" said the chipmunk. with
the care of a little family l have no
time for travelling; but down the river
is a large white stone with water
fairy under it, and he may be able to
tell you"
So Blunder went on down the stream,
but saw nothing of the fairy or the
white stone, but soon he came to a
frog sitting on wet stone, so he said;
please, Mrs. Frog, can you tell me
the way to the wishing gate?"
The frog said, mo; l am so busy
training my voice to sing in the con-
certs that / have no time for such
foolishness. But II you go to yonder
pine tree you will see a crow who is
a great traveller and may be able to
tell you"
Blunder went on, but saw nothing of
the tree, and as he was very tired he
sat down under large pine tree,
But soon down the stream he came
to a little fairy shutting up the morn
ing glories, and he said:
"Please, Miss Fairy, can you tell me
the way to the wishing gate?"
The fairy said, when l was. young
l was too delicate to go to school, so
/ don't know much about geography.
But IL you will follow this road you
will meet the dream-man with his
bags of dreams, and / am sure he can
tell you"
Blunder started out again, but as
he had habit of not using his eyes
at home, for when he was sent for
anything his sister or his mother had
to go and find it for him, as he would
always say, "I don't know where it
is" or 81 can't find it," he passed the
dream-man lying asleep with his
dreams, and went on until it got dark,

HAPPINESS NECESSARY
TO DEVELOPMENT

Dear Aunt Laurie:
do not think that children under IS
years of age should have to work for
a living. If a child works he misses
his proper schooling and every child
is entitled to good education. Every
child is also entitled to happiness, IL
a child is not, who is? If in the be-
ginning of life a person is happy and
care Free as child should be, he will
grow up to be a better nobler, kinder
man than the person who lives sad,
detected life. Who can be happy who
leaves a poverty stricken home early
in the morning, works all day in fac

Now this is the best way know to COM
mence-
A great big red COW tumbled over a fence,
SO mamma just brought her right into the
she'd
And washed all the dirt off, and put her to
bed.
OH deary me. deary me, what do you think?
The bed tumbled down just as quick as a
wink,
And the COW cried so hard out of both of her
eyes
The folks on the street stood stock still in
surprise.
The poor mooly nearly smashed up
They fed her from spoons, from real china
cup.
The babes brought brown paper in hunks and
in chunks
And pasted it carefully over the bumps.
haven't yet told you the name of the COW,
Which being the case, will do II right now,
The babies all call her Miss Molly Maloo-
She gives them white milk and gives lots OF
it, too.
Played Just for the babies beautiful song.
The moo COW stopped crying in no time, be-
cause
She went to the window to see what it was
But the window was high, so she couldn't
look out,
And because the old COW was remarkably
stout
tell you 1t tickled the babies to see
Miss Molly Maoo climb on dear mammals
knee!
