child Labor at Examination.

Nuliu AabVA At bennington
States Attorney W. j.. Meagher of
Bennington has called the attention of
the mill owners and supertendents that
the provisions of the laws regulating
child labor are being violated. The
statutes strictly prohibit the employ
ment of children under IA years Of
age and make it necessary that any
child under 10 years of age who shall
seek employment in mill or factory
shall have completed a specified por-
ton Of the regular school work or must
also secure a permit from the school
superintendent.
Most Of the mills in Bennington have
obeyed the law in the past but one or
two have not and it has been mat
ter Of common knowledge that scores
of children from IL to l6 years of age
have been employed in open violation
of the law.

ant that the advertisers furnish the
copy early. There is not an idle
printer In Fairmont and no extra help
can be picked up to help out In the
rush season and when help is looked
for at this eason out OF town We
find that their home publishers are
demanding their services during the
holidays. II copy is in early or n day
or SO In advance. at idle or slack times
II will be given better attention. In
order to keep with the work during
the holiday season It is necessary for
the force to work overtime and in
some instances Ii Is almost a day
day and night job. 1t is a very trying
situation for the printers but they
are always willing and ready to do
all in their power to get along and
1t is more in consideration OF their
interests that, We make the request
that all Advertising copy from now
up until the end of the holiday sea-
son be furnished as far in sadvance
as possible. 1t insures better atten.
