Ithaca, n. Y, Nov. "a big student
demonstration. the last that the Cornell
football team will witness before the
PENNSYLVANIA game, featured the practice
of the Red eleven on alumni field this

by the cadet band, marched to the held.
where for a half hour they cheered the
varsity team as II crashed through the
scrubs in one OF the hardest final scrim-

AFTER LONG ODDS.
Yale Men ON Wall street Hoidins
Out ON Betting.

New York. Nov. 2O.-Plenty of money
was offered in Wall Street today on the
Harvard-Yale football game Saturday.
but not a great deal OF actual betting
took place, for Yale men wanted bet
ter odds than were quoted them.
On the curb market it was reported
that Harvard men were Offering $4,000
at 10 TO T. The Yale men wanted 10 TO 6
and there was not much Yale money in
sight even at these odds.
Fred Schumm, who is one of the lead
ing betting commissioners in the down.
town district. said that he could only
quote odds of 10 to s on Harvard. Yes
terday his odds were 10 to Z. y He re-
ported Yale money as rather shy. but
said there was an abundance of money
offered by the Crimson supporters. About
81, 900 was placed during the day.

pitaI Show Benefits from Game.
Golf as a cure for insanity is the latest
prescription of the doctors. The New Jer-
sey State Hospital for the Insane at
Morris Plane, N. J., has decided to estab-
lish nine-hole course for the benefit
of its patients. Less than a year. ago
four holes were built, and golf became
SO popular that arrangements have been
completed for link Of nine holes
Some of the players show all the symp-
toms of being good golfers, one of them
having a score Of 30 for twice around the
four holes plus one more, making nine
in all. Dave Honeyman, the Forest Hill
professional, holds the record for nine
holes.
During the winter the other fve holes
will be laid out. Doctors at the hospital
have decided that the out-of-door exer-
else obtained by the patients through
golf is highly beneficial. thus the deci-
sion to have nine holes, which, In time,
probably will be extended further.

SONSTEBY LOSES STRONG FIGHT AGAINST
CHILD LABOR-14 YEARS THE LIMIT

NJ 44AA A<AON<4N L =
John J. Sonsteby of the school
board made a very, creditable fight
against the employment of child
labor in public schools yesterday, but
lost to the forces led by Dean Walter
T. Sumner.
And in the end a resolution allow
ing the employment of children as
young as fourteen years to do janitor
work was passed by the board. This
was little better than the old rule
which had no age limit, but was not
what Sonsteby was aiming for.
Sonsteby, in strong speech, as
serted that the Chicago public
schools were as bad as Sweat
shops" by permitting little children
to do this sort of work.
ut isn't right; it isn't legal to run
a sweatshop, as has been done by
the engineers hiring boys and girls
! cried Mr.. SOnsteby. IF any citizen
should bring action under the civil
service law he could compel you to
abandon the system.
81 don't believe in permitting some
engineers to employ these children,
when they are paid a good salary to
perform these services themselves.
And if they're not able they should
employ an assistant. But don't allow
these children to perform the same
sort of hard labor they would be
forced to do in commercial sweat
shops.
There are lots of people who
speak against child labor, but who
work in favor of it. That's the case
of some members of this board, who
say they are not in favor of child
labor, but who are voting here to con-
tinue child labor in the schools"
Mr.. Sonsteby then pointed out rea-
sons why the age limit should be
placed at Is years, so that a great
school system like Chicago should
not go on record as encouraging
child labor
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-10-30

thought it gave the poor children
chance to earn little extra money.
The Dean then voted for the IA.
year limit. Sonsteby arose to his
feet when Sumner had cast his vote
and said:
$50 long as the persons employed
are between the ages of IA and 16
years old they are children. l am
surprised that such vote would
come from the church which ought
to be the first to suppress child
labor"
Dean Sumner didn't like this ref
erence about the church. The church
is very touchy on the question of
union labor.
81 should hate to think that such
claptrap was entered in the records
of the board" he said.
The secretary assured him the
stenographer was not making a YER
batim report of the meeting.
John c. Harding also voted for the
18-year limit with Sonsteby. When
they failed to get that passed they
changed to 16 years. Trustees
Smetanka and Lipsky followed them.
The board also passed resolution
authorizing the employment of an
expert to investigate the teachers
pension plan and report necessary
notifications to make it flair, i'm

SCHOOLS RECEIVE MONEY.
Large Amount Sent Out By Sup
erintendent Swearingen.

Columbia, April Isl E Swear
ingen, State Superintendent of Edu
cation, yesterday paid out $31, ,64s
State aid of 126 high schools in Al
counties. Warrants were mailed te
the several county treasurers and no
tees addressed to the county Super
intendents of Education and each
board of district trustees.
Sixty-three rural graded schools in
II counties received $13, ,9O0.94. All
of these schools are located in rural
districts, or in incorporated places
with less than 300 population. A dis
trict levying a four-mill tax, employ
ing two teachers and running its
schools six months receives $500
State aid. A district levying four
mill tax, employing three teachers
and running the school seven months
receives $500.
Fifty-eight such schools received
aid last November, and hence were
not entitled to additional assistance
this spring, The rural graded school
law has, therefore, benefited l2l COM
munities during the current scholas-
tic year. Any school entitled to
share in its benefits may renew its
application as soon as the require
ments of the law are met after the
opening of the session this fall. dur
ing the next scholastic year, 1894.
State aid was also granted to Sc dis
tricts in 10 counties under the term
extension act for weak schools. The
amount paid these schools was S4,-
834.62.
In each instance the district shar-
ing in high school aid and term ex-
tension aid levies local tax of two
