growing conviction among communi-

years, junked at, 16 years. Or alad
makes misstep. falls into a machine,
loses his fingers and "ain't good for
work no more" Then his family NAV
give him an "eddication so he won't
have to work" or he may be simply
added to the pile of human junk. And
we never stop to count the cost to a
girl OF long hours'over a machine that
is always calling for more, making
her wish she could be a machine too,
or the cost to the boy who "hain't
grown none since he was six'S Of
course, we do find children who stand
the wear and tear of industry better,
but we are considering the average
child.
These are a few of the physical
costs. What about the mental? The
