strengthened by Count Rentvenlow's
comment on the reports that the So

tocratic government into a democracy
is likely to be successful. Rentven-
low dismisses this speculation as abb

SANE USE OF CHILDREN

ca to serve in war time in the produc-
ton of foodstuffs under supervision OF
educational directors and at the same
time safeguard the children against
Ioverwork and general neglect" the
National Child Labor Committee has
sent a letter and leaflet outlining u
workable plan to every State. county.
and city school superintendent. the
Secretaries Of Agriculture and Labor.
the Commissioner of Education, the
Chief Of the Childrens Bureau, mem
bers Of the Council for National De-
Tense, and others interested. The plan
calls for the cooperation Of teachers.
scout masters, and playground direa-
TORS.
The plan divides children into two
classes, those ii years old and over.
t who may be hired out or sent in groups
TO work in farm districts, and those
under IA, who would be burden to
the farmers but may be used In their
home towns under supervision. For
employing the younger children. towns
are advised to form a, Summer Agrj-
cultural Faculty" composed Of teach
ers. scout masters, and others, get the
use of vacant lots and raise small
sum to have them ploughed, and Sc
cure a special resolution from the local
school board providing that children
enrolled for this supervised agrlcultur-
a. work and performing 1t regularly
may be credited with 1t in lieu of reg
! ular school attendance from June TO
iOctober !. But allow no general en-
emption." says the leaflet. that will
turn children out Of school without
providing both occupation and super
vision" The children thus enrolled
are then to be set to work to raise
foodstuffs appropriate to the soil ana
location under direction Of the Sum
mer Agricultural Faculty" who will
i;"appreciate the limits of a child's
strength and will not allow him to be
oyerworked."
For older children, it is suggested
that since Ito send any children 70
farms without knowing the actual need
for them, or without regulation, would
be wasteful and 4 hindrance. to the
farmers who do not want horde Of in
! experienced laborers on their hands.
each state should create committee
Of school officials to confer with the
State Agricultural department and
farmers organizations, meet whatever
need there is Of child labor and draft
regulations for it. The suggested reg
ulations are that children IA and over
only, be permitted to work for farm
ers other than their own parents,
since, as the National Child Labor
Committee states, the farmers them
selves repeatedly say that children
younger than the Il or 15-year-olds are
!! no use to them: that such children be
excused from school for farm work be-
tween June l and October / that no
children so excused be permitted to
work more than S hours a day or 6
days a week; that children shall be so
excused only on the issuance Of spe'
/ cial permit. by the State committee of
school officials or persons authorized
BY them, state that the child has been
; examined by physician and found
physically fit for work, and is to be
employed on farm known to be a
suitable place.

SENTENCE OLSON
TO THIRTY DAYS
In COUNTY JAIL

Martin Olson, former Moorhead
alderman, convicted of violating the
county option law, was today SEN
fenced by Judge Roesser to serve 80
days in jail and to pay fine of 800
and costs of prosecution. In case Of
default in the payment OF the fine
and costs the sentence includes adj
ditional imprisonment mot to exceed
four months. A story of execution
of the sentence until Jan. 2, 1918 was
ordered upon the request of Mr.. Oh
sons attorney.
In sentencing Olson and two others
for violating the county option law,
Judge Roeser advised them to take
the punishment as a lesson and re-
minded them that the community
viii not tolerate violations of the
law. The Judge told Olson that he
probably realized by this time that
no man can defy the law.
Henry Myer, who entered a plea
of guilty to an indictment charging
violation Of the county option law
was also given some good advice.
Judge Roeser told him to keep his
liquor for his own use If he must
have it. ''If anyone comes Fostering
you with the CldAAl hAAteI AA6 must AAdNN
liquor to save his life, tell him You
haven't any; and let him so and
die, said the judge.
Meyers sentence was 80 days in
Jail and $50 without costs.
Anton Mallinger who was con-
victed of selling liquor In violation
of the county option law, was denied
a suspended sentence. Judge Roeser
said he had been given a chance to
plead guilty but after the jury had
found him guilty he must take his
Mallinger's sentence was 80 days
in Jail and $50 fine and costs, with an
additional so days in jail IL the fine
is not paid.
All three of the sentences are
stayed until the second day Of the

are said to be decidedly against the
probability OF Lincoln having a team

Is said that Mgr. "Ducky" Holmes
will attempt to induce the business
men in Sioux City, Ia, to accept the

one reason for the decision to leave
Lincoln is said to be that the owners
OF the local baseball park demand an
excessive rental for the lot, which the
club believes 1t cannot AFFORD to pay.
Back in 1910 the rental on the park
was 5000 for the season. Last year IL
