have attended these conferences IN
your cities have had a good time and
have gained thing that We could nev-
or have gained in any other way. This
year, We relinquished this thought in

THE CHILD T0ILERS.
Philadelphia Leads In the Employment
of Children

of Children.
No city In the United States, accord
ing to a recent statement sent out Dy
the Pennsylvania Child Labor assocla-
ton, begins to employ as many chill
dren as does Philadelphia. New YORK
city, with over three times as many
people, employs in its factories ana
mercantile establishments 10,lll chill
dren under sixteen. Philadelphia EN-
ploys 1850, according to the partial
returns Of the factory inspectors.
The entire state of Illinois reports
but S.O77 children under sixteen at
work. In all Ohio there are but 9ol9
children regularly at work.
The last annual report Of the chief
factory inspector shows 1882 children
under sixteen years of age employed ID
the factories and mercantile establish
ments Of Pennsylvania. BY the best es-
innate we can make there are at least
10000 more employed about the mines
and in the breakers. That makes a.
B12-more than twice as many children
as are employed In the same industries
in the state Of New York (21,5OO, al
though New York has greater pop
ulation and almost as many wage
earners.
Pennsylvania has more child work
ers than all the New England states
put together and more than all the
southern states combined If we except
North and South Carolina.
Absolute figures serve but to show
the size of the problem. By percent
age we can better compare states. In
the census of manufactures for 1908,
the latest complete figures we have,
Pennsylvania stood seventh among all
the commonwealth in the United
States in high percentage Of children
under sixteen among her wage earners,
being exceeded only by South Carroll
ma, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Maryland and Rhode Island Since
then the percentage of children en-
ployed has steadily decreased but is
still high as compared with most of
the leading industrial states in the
north.
In none of the figures given has there
been included newsboys, street traders
or home workers The figures are for
children who are regularly reported as
wage earners In factories, shops and
stores. They work long hours, in most
cases ten hours a day. from Z in the
morning to half past or 6 at night

ITO my mind. the new Chicago

of similar legislation that has gone

regarding the use OF horns.

Practically every automobile law
in this country calls for a suitable or
adequate warning signal. But 1t
remained for Chicago to give def

ambiguous words.
The new ordinance there requires
that automobiles be equipped with
a signal which shall produce an
abrupt. note. sufficiently loud to
adequately warn. 1t further provides
that such signal must not be used
except as a warning of danger. IN
both respects ii Is unprecedented.

II believe that the passage of this
ordinance In Chicago and in other
cities which are adopting similar
ordinances. will do much toward solV-
