Lest the reader suspect that Jim was
"stringing" his patron, it may be said that
the committees workers found his state
ments no exaggeration Of what goes on
constantly.
One ex-messenger, asked by an investi-
gator as to his experience, said:
"I was a messenger about two and half
years. At the end of that time l couldn't
find a decent job that would pay a man to
take. I'm twenty now, but can't find any
thing. I haven't any trade, and while kind
people are always offering me jobs none
of them pays more than 81 week"

pIunscd with characteristic enthusiasm into
tre subject on which all his remarkable
energy is concentrated.
Thirty states Of the Union. in the last
year have produced laws lettering the
condition of one Of the nations most i'm
portant class of citizens-the children OF
the poor. This has been the banner year
for the National Child Labor Committee
After seven years Of hard. discouraginS
toll IT is coming into its own.
His heart and soul fun of the magnitude
OF his work. the general secretary resented
any allusion TO his own personality. Lean
ing forward on his desk in his character
istic attitude, he made the movement live
in the mind Of his listener.
THE child, from the standpoint Of ma
tlonaI life is our most valuable asset.
Human labor. intelligence and virtue are
the forces creating, prOpagating and main
tanning the social and political institutions
which at once utilize and safeguard our
material resources.
Human labor and intelligence operating
1ipon our natural physical resources create
Our material wealth In two decades all
treso interests will be in the hands Of the
children Of to-day.
we believe the record Of the past seven
years gives promise that the American
people are ready 10 rally 10 conditions
which, throughout the nation, shall guar
s,utce 10 every child adequate oppor-
tunity 90 play and grow and learn.
In my judgment, child labor will be
abolished and civilized standards Of en-
pjoyment secured far quicker by the com
fdncd political action Of men and women
t1an by continuing TO regard women as
fhc incompetent recipients OF legislative
favor.
The principle Of social responsibility is
canecialy applicable 10 children
Not only are children less intelligent
Joss cautious and less able 10 defend their
rights. but their physical inferioriy sub
jccts them 10 dangers which DO not threaten
the adult
These are some Of the convictions which
Mr Loycjoy carries into his work.

himself from consideration.
He saw nothing dramatic in exchanging a

THOSE WHO DESIRE NICE
HAIR MUST TRY THIS.
You Can Double the Beauty of
Your Hair in Ten Minutes
With a Little Danderine.

When you see head of heavy hair,
that glistens with beauty and is ra-
diant with life. has an incompatible
softness and is fluffy and lustrous,
you can at once conclude that this
man or woman is using Danderine,
because nothing else accomplishes SO
much for the hair.
Just one application of Knowlton's
Danderine will double the beauty of
your hair; besides, it Immediately de-
stroys and dissolves every particle of
dandruff; you cannot have nice,
heavy, healthy hair if you have dam
druff. This destructive scurf robs the
hair of its luster, its strength and its
very life, and if not overcome 1t pro-
duces feverishness and itching of
the scalp; the hair roots famish, loosen
and die; then the hair falls out fast.
If your hair has been neglected and
is thin, faded. dry, scraggy or too
oily, don't hesitate, but get a ascent
bottle of Knowlton's Danderine at
any. drug store or toilet counter; app
ply a little as directed and ten min
utes after you will say this was the
best investment you ever made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if you
desire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair
and lots of .it-no dandruf-no Itch
ling scalp and no more falling hair
you must use Knowlton's Danderine.
If eventually-why not now? A IS
cent bottle will truly amaze you.
