cotton crop, we stand ready to assist.
There is movement on foot to exact
a uniform warehouse receipt all over

your cotton, be sure that you secure
that receipt. If you sell Immediately
any old form might suffice. The great
amount of funds necessary for an I'M
dertaking SO great as the above men

STRIKING GAINS IN
CHILD LABOR LAWS
Off Year For Legislation, but
Children Not Neglected.
EDUCATION LAWS IN SOUTH.

A new compilation Of child labor
laws which will be issued shortly by
the National Child Labor Committee
contains the legislation enacted in 1915.
Although this last year was a reac-
tionary one for social welfare legisla-
ton, the National Child Labor Com
mittee feels that there were some strik-
ing gains in child labor laws.
Two states which have hitherto defied
all efforts to raise their standards
Pennsylvania and Alabama-have
yielded to the pressure Of public opin-
ion. Alabama has a fourteen year
limit for all gainful occupations, to go
into effect In September, 1916, instead
of her former twelve year limit for
factories only. A sixteen year limit
for dangerous occupations Is included
in the law, as well as a twelve year
limit for boys and an eighteen year
limit for girls in street work.
The striking feature of Pennsylva-
MAS new law is the continuation
school clause, which requires children
of fourteen and fifteen who are regu-
larly employed to attend continuation
schools eight hours week. Other i'm
portant features ara the twenty -one
year limit for night messengers, phys
lcal examination and the completion of
the sixth grade before work permit
can be secured, and the regulation of
street work.
Michigan had an unusual experience
The age limit for common gainful oc-
equations was raised from fourteen to
fifteen AT THE REQUEST OF THE
EMPLOYERS. The bill was drafted
and the campaign directed by them.
In addition to raising the age limit, 1t
raises the grade which a child must
complete before a work permit can be
secured from the fourth to the sixth
grade.
Compulsory education laws were
passed by three southern states The
Florida and South Carolina laws are
local option only, but the Texas law
is state wide.
California and Iowa strengthened
their laws by including provisions for
the regulation OF street work and the
night messenger service. In addition
| to the street work clause Iowa passed
an eight hour day for children under
sixteen and strengthened her work
permit provisions. A written statement
from the employer, saying that he In
tends to employ the child, is now
necessary before child can secure a
work permit. A similar clause was
Incorporated this year In the Rhode
Island law and a street work pro
vision enacted establishing twelve
year limit for boys and a sixteen yeal
limit for girls engaged in selling news
papers or merchandise.
| Nevada created the office of labor
commissioner to enforce the child labo,
| law. and Wyoming enacted nine houl
day for children under fourteen in al
gainful occupations. In fact. there wa.
gain in every state but one of those
which passed laws this year affecting
| children. Tennessee weakened its law
by exempting canneries from prac
| tically all provisions of the law. Blu
! an attempt to repeal the Arkansas Law
was defeated. so that, on the whole
| the National Child Labor Committe,
feels that the child labor legislation o
1915 represents steady progress.

Christmas In
The Farmhouse

When as a child you read stories of
Christmas celebrations where the
houses were decorated with holly and
mistletoe and the people had such jolly
times putting them up, didn't you look
around your own house and wonder
how that would look if trimmed with
those same greens? And didn't you
long to smell their spicy fragrance and
to have n hand in putting them up
where you thought they would look
the best? And didn't you long to feel
that peculiar Christmas spirit that is
in the very air in cities and villages
for more than week before Christmas
