RESPONSIBILITY
WITH EMPLOYER
Cannot Give Employment to Child.
rem Under rs

An opinion just made public by Per-
~ r. Power, labor commissioners for
the state, IN response to query rs to
whether children under sixteen yeacs
of age, who have graduated from the
grammar school may be granted per-
mts 10 work throws new light on the
situation. II brings forth the point
that the law does not restrain the
children. or their parents or guardians.
but states that employers cannot place
children who are under sixteen to
work, without special permit from
the superintendent of schools. The
responsibility therefore is placed
wholly with the employer. In view If
the fact that many local people are of
the opinion that children who have
graduated from the grammar grades.
hut who are less than sixteen. may
commence work withou. the formality
of a permit Mr.. Powers opinion ex-
planning the situation is given:
Your question with reference to
providing children with working per-
mits after they have passed the eighth
grade in cases where they are under
sixteen years Of. age brings out the
fact which YOU may not have before
noted that the primary purpose of the
labor law does not relate to the schools
SO much as to employers of labor, The
only persons who can violate the labor
laws are employers of labor as the Jaw
does not recognize the child or it's par
ents as possible violators. Employers
are not permitted to give employment,
to children under sixteen wears of age
without having fled in their office 4
permit issued by the superintendent of
schools. That is why IL is necessary
for children to have permits, even
though they have passed the eighth
grade and canrot be compelled TO at
tend school.
An employer would be violating the
law If he accepted the services of a
child under sixteen years of age with
out having a working permit even
though the child has passed the ninth
or tenth GRADES. 1t is the age Of the
child rather than his school acquire
ments that determines his eligibility
Tor employment. But until he Is six
teen yesrs Of age the superintendent
OF schools has charge OF the matter
of issuing permits In order that the
permits may not he issued to children
under sixteen who have not the mini
mum school requirements provided In
the law"
Under the Michigan truancy law
children who pass the eighth grade are
not required to attend school. but UNI
der the labor law they are not per-
mitted to work until they are sixteen
years, unless permits are received from
the superintendent Of schools In the
cities or from the county commissioner
OF schools in the townships. As a rule
children finish the eighth grade wher
they are from twelve to thirteen years
Of age

Remedies for Summer Freckles

So many women want to know at this

only drying and burning to the skin, but
is actually harmful If the thin layer Of

seems to cause breakdowns and the re-
