Effort in Interest of Children.

DR.. A. J. Mckelway, secretary of the
national child labor commission, told of
the work being done for the children
employed in factories in the south.
"In the eleven years of it's existence"
aid DIR. Mckelway, .the commission has
brought about the enactment of laws
limiting the employment of children at
fourteen years in all the states except
North and South Carolina and Alabama.
The only way to fix the limit definitely,
however, is to pass national law. We
have now introduced in the House and
Senate a bill which, il passed, will pro-
hibit the sale of factory products if
the owners have children under four
teen years old working for them and
mine products if the children are IN
der sixteen. This will effectually set
tie the question -

Asked-List of the Moneys

A regular contributor Of the Asso-
ciated Charities, who also has been CIV
ing to the fourteen opportunities at
Christmas time for the past five years
has sent $40, saying: Il wish l could
subscribe literally to each of the
fourteen opportunities Martha is an

appeal. but, alas. l must make choice.
II hope all the fourteen opportunities
will be closed before Christmas
There is but one regret expressed by
the givers to these opportunities" say
officials of the Associated Charities,
and this regret seems well-nigh uni
versal. 1t is voiced by the larger as
well as the smaller givers, and finds
expression in the words of one OF the
givers this morning:
II am very sorry that I cannot give
more"
This spirit is taken as an assurance
that these fourteen opportunities
strike a responsive chord. The Asso-
ciated Charities is often criticised for
spending money for salaries. Some
contend that charity should be done
without paid workers and entirely by
volunteers, as the services OF the lre
departments, street cleaning and police
used to be performed. Those who feel
that way, it is pointed out, find in
these opportunities" a chance to give
their money directly to the poor,
without a cent being charged for dis
tribution or so-called administrative
service. Every penny asked for these
fourteen opportunities is gong
straight into these fourteen homes, for
actual living expenses.
Ledger Account With Each.
To insure this a ledger account is
kept with each family, and every dol
lar contributed for that family is cred
tied to its account and drawn out in
weekly or semi monthly allowances. as
found most advisable. The money goes
to the family in check or in the form
of cash. The family does its own buy
ing and is expected to pay cash for
what it buys.
In each of its pension families the
society seeks to have a friendly visitor
or some big brother or sister who Will
act the part of a good neighbor and en- :
courage the mother and advise with
her in her daily problems. The society
makes one condition-that the mother
shall cooperate fully and shall do her
full part in caring for her children,
providing them with 4 good home and
sending those of school age regularly
to school. In other words, she must
prove by her works that she is all that
a mother should be.
The time to Christmas morning is
growing short. over $4,000 must still
be raised if these fifty-siX children are
to be guaranteed a home with their
own mothers for the next year.
Contributions may be sent to The Star
or directly to the Associated Charities,
323 Fl Street northwest. and will be
personally acknowledged by the society.
