Senator Overman Raps Child Labor
 Bill In Address

Washington, Aug. 7.-An attack .up- on the constituf onarity of the pending child labor bill was made in the Sen ate today by Senator Overman, of North Carolina, He insisted that the issue should be submitted to the states as constitutional amendment.
 "If this legislation is constitutional" declared the Senator, there will be nothing left of the rights of states, but the powers of the AS sovereign com monwealths and there will be no bar rier in the way of centralization of all power in Washington to which goal we are now rapidly drifting.
 This bill is not for the purpose of regulating commerce but it's main pur- pose-its ultimate purpose-is. under the guise of regulating commerce. to regulate production in the manufac- tories and mills of the country. It is to put state under duress and com pei it to do that which some states have done in order, as has been stated in this debate. to have uniformity"
 Senator Overman submitted. statis- tics designed to show a beneficial eff effect upon society of child labor. Re- cords for 1910, he said, showed that only 1 5 children in 100000 between 4 and 16 years of age in North Caro- lima were committed to jails or work houses as compared with 279 in Mas sachusetts; 199 in Rhode Island and 122 in Missouri.

Fairfield Girl Is
 Severely Injured By
 New York Automobile
(special to The Farmer. )


 Fairfield, Aug. 7-Darting from be- hind two standing automobiles at the Center in front of the post office, to cross the street to go on an errand for her parents Saturday afternoon eight year old Alice Adeski, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Joseph Adeski of Reef Road was knocked down and run over by an automobile owned by John Norman of New York. The child was severely injured and bruised and has possible concussion of the brain. The New York car stopped and passengers picked up the child and brought her to the office of pr. William Donaldson who, after treat ment conveyed her to her home. The condition of the girl is precarious to- day.
 Mr. Norman gave himself up to the police and told them he would report at court when notified. He was not held. According to witnesses the ac- cident was unavoidable and it was not the fault of the automobiiist. The girl became frightened when she saw the machine coming after passing the two other cars and beganto rum back and then forward to escape being hit. Witnesses say that the machine was proceeding at a moderate speed.

Professor Adolf Harnack, the emil nent German theologian, whose works are known throughout the world, is one of the most conspicuous of the men now featuring to Germans on peace, with the sanction of the Ger man government. These men began their endeavors in the large cities of the empire on Aug 1. They desire to prepare the minds of their com patriots for consideration of the wars end and the objects to be attained by Germany's gigantic struggles. Pro- lessor Harnack is professor of the
 ology and general director of the Royal library in Berlin Of his num- erous books, What Is Christianity ?" Is probably best known to English speaking readers. In the address in Berlin he warned his hearers not to expect or demand too much from the results of the war, as Germany must remember the lot of her confederates as we'll as her own success. He ap- pealed for confidence in the admins tration of Chancellor Won Bethmann- Hollweg, which he said had done it's utmost to avert the war. Its attitude toward certain neutrals history would some day justify, Professor Harnack
 said.

REFRIGERATION.

When I am lodging touring cars to
 get across the street, And bounding, leaping here and there
 upon elastic feet, It often has occurred to me, perhaps
 it has to you, That in the other life I was jump
 ing kangaroo.
 When travelling around the state in
 Prohibition towns. Fhere cen the soda fountain wink
 is met with frigid frowns, When for a whole week at a stretch
 a thirst I must endure, I feel that in the other life was a
 camel sure. I sometimes think I used to swing
 from trees and wear tail. And chatter language simian, if pres-
 ent signs don't fail. There are some indications that cling
 fast, 'tis plain to see, It's still quite possible to make a monkey out of me.
