her penny, and was warned by her
mother not to stop and play with any
children she might meet on the way.
After having been gone only a few
minutes, she rushed into the house

ROOSEVELT PLEADS FOR
LIVING WAGE
New York, Feb. 16.-A plea for
living wage and closer .co-opera-
ton between capital and labor is
made by Col. Roosevelt in the
current number of the Outlook,
in which he relates his expert
ences in investigating a Brook
Ign factory, which, he says, is
ideally conducted.
There must be full recogni-
tion," he says, "by the public of
the fact that no business can be
permanently good for this coun-
try unless the wage worker is
paid a high wage and works Tin
derconditions favorable to his
health and safety. On his part
the wake worker must, as mat
ter of justice and personal pride,
do firSt-class work for that wage,
and in his private character must
be good citizen, and so must his
employer"
He goes on to say that it is a,
false and unhealthy" belief that
capital and labor cannot get
along without conflicts. He also
supports President Taft's idea.
