g. EPISODES.
Nothing happened-that is, nothing in
the way of retained acceleration. Before
we hit the bridge at the foot of the hill
and that heaven-provlded and cobble-
paved upslope beyond there were one or
two high little episodes. NO 1, for which
! am thankful, prevented a real catas-
trophe, though 1t involved the loss of con-
sciousness of Mrs. Piggott
Her grip on my collar had cut of my

with the swaying of the Warm Baby"
she'd sure have torn me loose from tho
wheel and we'd nave gone into the ditch.

you down that hill immedjut and without

There was another railroad bridge be-
tween me and the regular Manayunk hill
proper when left Off my last message.
And, like with most railroads bridges,
there's n step-up to 1t and n step-down
from It, / guess we were making so when
] hit the step-up, and, while the Warm
Baby's" rear springs are good, they're
not any too good. Mother-in-law Piggott
got most of the step-up, but she had hold
OF the ro pe-ral in front OF her which kept
her from leaving the tonneau and drop
ping down on passing freight-a freight
passing under the bridge.
Leastwise, that's the way she explained
it afterward, short and sarcastic. Mebbe
she laid II on n little thick. Mothers-in-
law do that. Still mebbe she didn't. I
was looking out front and not paying any
attention. We'd no sooner crossed the
bridge than l began to get slant of
real hill The Manayunk hill. 1t looked
a mile long and cut away steep enough
to cause a mountain goat to wear brake
bands.
And recollect, I still had the clutch in
and the engine was turning over. I was
told after that IL I'd slowed her down
and got her Into second that would have
acted better'n the foot-brake. I'd Just !
explained to the ass that told me this
that the foot-brake was clear to the floor

| A considerable proportion of
the younger boys and also of
those over sixteen Were under
size and physically undeveloped
for their ages while those between
fifteen and sixteen averaged larg-
er than other classes of boys of
their age with which comparisons
We're made. The fact is explain
ed by the accumulation in the
mills of strong boys waiting to
reach the age of sixteen to go in
to permanent full time" occupa-
tions. The presence of a note
worthy proportion of understood
boys is not ascribed to the effects
of the occupation but to the fact
that the cotton mill offers one of
the few chances of employment
for understood boys. Evidence
of injurious effects of their worl;
or working conditions, even of
the temperature and humidity of
the mills, on normal boys was
seldom found, although further
investigation of possible effects
of atmospheric conditions is re-
commended. Probably as a re-
suit of the State regulations rela-
tive to the issuance of employment
certificates comparatively few
cases of dangerous diseases were
discovered. There was, however,
a wide variety of defective con-
ditions disclos ed by the investiga-
ton, many of them of such a
character as to impair seriously
the future health and economic
usefulness of the individuals con-
cerned if not remedied.

1t is so well reconized that Ger.
tain occupations may involve SER
ious dangers to young, growing
persons that most states now
have their child labor laws.
Massachusetts,, which has been a
leader in legislation of this char
acter, is now engaged in a sys-
tematic effort to collect informa-
ton that may be OF value in de-
termining the need of changes in
Its presnt laws and regulations
governing the employment OF
minors. At the request of the
Massachusetts Board of Labor
and Industries. Assistant Surgeon
M. Victor Stafford of the u. S.
Public Health Service was detail
ed by the Federal Government to

employment of children now per-

A report of this study with res

of occupation on health during
