Press Comments.
No PLACE For PYGMIEs In A WAR OF
VTmANG


TITANS.
The proposal of Senator Cummins
that no corporation in any line OF bust
ness should be allowed to have more
than specified amount of capital is
characteristic of the mania for littleness
which has seized our Legislators.
Bigness once was the glory of America.
The big things the Government has ac-
complished and the big things private
citizens have achieved have been our
boast. But now, on the eve of the
most colossal international trade war
the world has ever known, when the
destinies of the nations shall be deter
mined and the bases for future domi-
nance established, politicians propose
to hamstring Americas giants, to
make legislative mold they must fit,
to construct their assets without respect
to the enormous resources of their COM
petitors.
1t is sheer madness, but it is none the
less popular on that account. 1t is easy
to get votes for any plan to whack anc
hamper the prosperity of the successful
but few people realize how interviewer
are the interests of all. No Legislation
of this character can possibly be per
manent, but its enactment at this tim'
might handicap American enterprise
sufficiently to make recovery of los
ground difficult if not impossible. W.
can not join in the battle of the gianti
unless we have the giants.-Pu6tic Led
0er.

Pancakes Furnish Complete Diet.

Considered from a physiological
point of view, the custom of eating
pancakes is commendable, says the
Lancet It is satisfactory fact that
they have become popular sweets at
other seasons than carnival time, for
they are nourishing and digestible
food.
A. review of the ingredients which
provide the formula shows at once that
the pancake is a singularly complete
diet, containing, that is to say, all
classes of food materials. It is rich
alike In proteins, carbohydrates, fats
and mineral substances, all In an ac-
ceptably assimilable form. 1t is
doubtful whether there Is a single
manufactured or patent food upon the
market which can claim such valu-
able range of dietetio properties.
Apart, moreover, from its dietetic val
ne the pancake possesses an important
pharmacology, inasmuch as 1t is rich
in lecithin, which is now known to
have special significance In the proc
esses of nutrition and metabolism.

Doctor Glasgow, who is candidate

The doctor is willing to go before the

other fellows do the same. If they have

No matter how the contest ends, the

Il In the Philadelphia Ledger, Sunday
there was long article purporting tC
show that there was joker in a law
. passed by the last Legislature, which
while intending to exempt assistan
prosecutors of the pleas from civil servic'
examinations, released election Officer
and that the examinations recently helC
for that position were useless. The write
was not posted as to the exact situation
A law passed in 1908 exempted election
officers from civil service examinations
and the amendment of the session o
1914 reiterated the provisions of the 1901
law. But the law requiring election
: officers TO take the examination wa
passed in 1911 and is the general election
law, and all the amendments that have
been adopted are aimed at the law o
1908, which statute was practically re
!, pealed by the act of 1911, and election
lofficers are not exempt from civil servic'
examinations.

I.ahor law in Effect.

The new child labor law in New Jer-
sey went into effect on Saturday, July A.
1t affects 1888 children under Is years of
age, who have been employed in New
Jersey industries. They are prohibited
from working at night or more than
hours day or total 4S hours week.
In order to conform with this statute,
owners of many of the largest factories
and mills in the state will be compelled
to dispense with the services of hun
dreds of workers.
The manufacturers to suffer the most
will be those owning wooden and worsted
mills. There are 1913 children who come
under the provisions of the new law en-
ployed in these factories.
Tobacco and cigar plants, which en-
ploy about 600 children, will be compell-
ed to discharge these employees or give
them eight hours work daily under the
provisions of the law. In the silk plants
large majority of the $50 children I'M
der the 16-year limit will be thrown out
of work.
In the thread factories 500 children
come within the requirements of the
law, and 179 children are employed in
the glass plants.
The average wage of these $3.50 chill
dren is $4.55 per week or an aggregate of
500, Oe5.4O. According to the exact fig
ures SO 2-10 per cent. received wage be-
tween So and Sc.
The law provides that no working
papers shall be given to child under
the age of IA years and that they are
prohibited from working more than
eight hours per day or As hours per week.
The responsibility of issuing permits to
children is placed in the hands of the
school authorities.
In case of extreme poverty in families.
children under Is years of age, by OBJ
tanning special permit, may be allowed
to work at night.
BY securing certificate from school
doctor that contemplated work will not
endanger the child's health, child UNI
der IA years old may work during yaca-
tions.
The new law gives each municipality
the right to have its policemen or in
spectors enter workshops and investigate
violations. The various cities have also
the authority to conduct prosecutions.
Offenders of the new law are to be dealt
with as ordinary criminals. A single Of
Tense is punishable by fine of $50 or
80 days in jail, or both. Habitual viola
ton of the law, and the employment of
several minors by the same firm, renders
the employer liable to a conviction of
maintaining disorderly house, with
penalty of three years in prison or a fine
of $1,000, or both. The fines under the
new law will go to the treasury of the
city in which the offense occurs.
Not only are employers who violate
the law liable to prosecution, but also the
parents of children who work in viola

Valuable Dog.

A commuter, who had evidently
been imbibing rather freely, boarded
the smoker of Reading Germantown
branch train last Saturday evening,
according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Attached to a long chain he had a
collie dog. AS he had no ticket he
handed the conductor a dollar note
and was returned a handful OF small
change. Studying the coins a mo-
ment, he couldn't figure out why he
had not received more, 80 calling the
man with the blue suit and brass but
tons, he asked for an explanation. The
conductor told him that ten cents was
the price of the excess ticket, ten
cents for his fare and Is cents for car
rying the dog. "Humph," he said,
you only charge me ten cents and
charge Is for the dog; he can find his
way home, UNI, but can't"

Florence.

For the third time within month the
Florence Board of Education will be
compelled to advertise bids for a new
school house at Roebling, owing to an
illegal, but unintentional, procedure at
the meeting held to read the second list
of bids. This was the acceptance of a
bid from contractor who had arrived at
the meeting just few minutes after the
first bid had been opened. As this late
bidders price was the lowest, objection
TO its acceptance was made by the new
lowest bidder.

Names In Eranna

Naming child is a more serious
business in France than in this coun-
try. No child in France can be given
name which does not occur in the
Official calendar of saints. AS this
comprises $4,000 names the range of
choice Is fairly wide, but the restric-
ton makes it impossible to bestow
family names like Smythe, Robinson,
etc, as English and Americans are
increasingly fond of doing. French
parents, however, may select any
name. male or female. irrespective of
the sex Of the child, and there are
hundreds of Frenchmen who bear the
