STATE FACTORY INSPECTOR FINDS
NO IDLE TIME ON HAND

Nelson Kyser, state factory inspector,
was trif1e fused up when he arrived
in Hammond yesterday. He found a
company of educators busily engaged
in remedying the child labor evil which

ling Juvenile workers was placed In
the hands OF the school authorities.

Daniel is taking full advantage OF the
prestige the new act gives him. AL
though fourteen years is the ago limit
Juveniles are now required to have fin
ished the sixth grade before they can
work. II however they are so backward
that they are still in the sixth grade
at the age of sixteen they can go to
work.
The sworn affidavit Of parents that
their child is sixteen Is no longer
good. The birth record must be es-
tablished Between the ages of fourteen
and sixteen a boy or girl must have a
certificate from the superintendent be-
fore he can secure job. The parents
children can not do SO successfully here
after for certificate will not be is
sued till the authorities are absolutely
sure about the birth date.

have ben at work grading the streets.

properly settled over the sewers that

flooded between the curb. Nothing is
being left undone to make the job one

The work of grading the lots in Ken

Mr.. George Milne has started con-
struction on the $1,000 residence that
he is to build on Zachau avenue in
Kenwood. He is making good head
way with the work.
One of the finest residences that are
to be built in Kenwood this year is
the home of DR. A. w. Lloyd at the
corner of Holman street and Kenwood
avenue. The latest estimates of the
cost of this residence made by Archi-
tect A. C. Berry. who is making the
plans, Is $4,000. DR.. Lloyd has one of
the most beautiful and most conspicu-
Gus locations in Kenwood and his new

rapidly than any other residential dis

er the age limit as set by the new law.
Until they can get certificates there Is
no chance of employment. In these
cases parents have falsned. The condi-
tons are not near as bad as might be
expected in a city where 10000 are en-
ployed in factories. The canning factor
les and mines down state are worse it
is claimed. But the state Inspector Is
evidently on the war path.
The Blessing of Half and Hnlf.
Under the half and half time sys-
tenn the boy between fourteen and siA-
teen who must work viii be allowed to
work half of the day ana attend school
the rest. supt. McDaniei has found that
the boy who leaves school before six
teen is not efficient at anything and
never become 50.
To Prevent "Quftting" Habit.
One thing is stipulated In the new
piece of legislation that shows great
foresight and a complete understand
ing by the author. The certificates
which Juveniles must have are returned
to the school authorities when the boy
or girl is discharged or quits. 1t is
accompanied by an explanations of
why he did not stay or was nat keut.
1t is a hardship to the youngster for
1t makes II perilious for him to quit
and leaves his reputation in the hands
of a foreman. But the schools do not
want him to work anyway and IL 1t
Will discourage him so much the bet
ter. The real purpose of the measure
however is to prevent boys from be-
coming rovers and quitters.

PRACTICES

crossing Waterman at Sibley street
and the Monon tracks knocked a man
to the street from his bicycle in order
to prevent another fatality yesterday.
1t Is said that since hurried visit
of claim agents from the Monon fol-
lowing the double killing on Clinton
street a reign of care and consideration
upon the part of watchmen and tower
men has started.
The Wrcng Training.
Heretofore the men who operate
gates seldom found 1t necessary along
the Erie and Monon to let both west
and east gates down. At times they
would urge people to cross in front
of trains. This attitude is said to
be the result of public impatience for
the fagmen fearing the anger of ped
estrians and teamsters when they are
delayed and knowing full we'll the
length of the average freight train
have encouraged recklessness to a
certain extent.
Crawl Through Trains.
Flagmen are almost powerless to
prevent men and boys from climbing
through trains. This is a dangerous
habit The general opinion of rail-

The killing of John Prohl and John

exceptions to this. The death on the
