War constructions work was discuss
ed at length at conference held this
morning by the war council of the Y.
NJ. C. A. at the First Methodist church.
The various phases of reconstruction
work were presented and program
to be carried out in the several COM
munities Of the county for the benefit
of the returning soldiers and sailors
was outlined.
The conference was presided over
by r. S. Hopkins, one of the delegates
from this county to the Blue Ridge
conference on War reconstruction
work. Rev. S. d. Logan, of Column
bia and Rev. H. M. Jarvis, of Mt.
Pleasant, and Prof. ]. M. Dean, all Of
whom attended the Blue Ridge confer
ence were present and gave the con-
ference the benefit of the information
there obtaioed.
The attendance was small, in fact
quite disappointing considering the
importance of the work under discus
sion. Very few of the communities
of the county were represented, al
though the keenest interest was mani
tested by those who were present.
Although not properly part of the
program, the proposed county organi-
cation of the Y. M. c. A. came in for
considerable discussion and its value
in putting over a program for recon-
struction was brought .out and en-
phasized.
Members of the conference very
frankly discussed the criticism that
has been levelled against the Y. NJ.
C. A. work in France and agreed that
it would be necessary to put the pub
lie mind right on the question. To
that end the truth about the orgaHi-
cation will be given to the public
through the newspapers, the pulpits
and all other public agencies.
DIR. Olin West, secretary of the
state board of health, made an earnest
plea for better health supervision.
He described the bill pending in the
legislature to create real county
health departments.
Dr. West gave some valuable in
formation on the losses from pre-
ventable diseases and discussed the
necessity for franker and more in
telligent understanding of yenereaI
troubles.
Other speakers at the conference
were F. NJ. Hubbel, state secretary
of county work; Prof. James A.
Bostick. OF the War council; DIR. J..
w. Cherry, DR.. S. d. Logan. Rev. II.
NJ. Jarvis, Prof. ]. NJ. Dean and ]. /.

AS the first woman war worker tC
receive the Distinguished Service Med .
al from the United States, Miss Mary
Vail Address has an unusual distinc-
ton. Besides this, Miss Address, who
was a Red Cross canteen,. worker in
France, has been awarded the Croix de
Guerre. The Distinguished Service
Medal was presented to Miss Address
by General Pershing. Only about 500
such medals were awarded. and with
the exception of that presented to Miss
Address, all were given to soldiers for
exceptional bravery.
Miss Address, who lives at East
Thirty ninth street. New York City,
has expressed the desire TO continue in
useful public work, and to this end
Maj-Gen John F. Organ, chairman of
the Third Red Cross Roll Call in the
Atlantic Disision, has invited her to
make a tour of New York, New Jersey
and Connecticut as Red Cross
worker.
| Miss Address was one of the first
seven American girls to go overseas.
She set up tent in the station yard
in the Toul sector and in a month had
a daily calling list of 5000 doughboys
Miss Address then opened a Red Cross
rest house for officers and enlisted
men, and when the Red Cross took
over an entire hotel she was placed
in charge. More than million dough-
boys visited Miss Address canteen.

The Too Sheltered Boy

I Perhaps it is necessary that in reforming evil we
should go to extremes. The pendulum must swing
beyond the center otherwise it would soon cease to
swing. Public indignation against an abuse naturally
carries itself beyond the rational wping out of
that abuse.
! Now here is the matter of child labor legislation.
There was at one time abuse of child labor. Chill
dren were put at work at early age, and kept at
work for long hours to the detrment of their health
and TO the deprivation of opportunities for securing
even rudimentary mental training.
f Naturally as the world became more civilized
there was revolt against this state of things with
the result that it has been pretty thoroughly sup
pressed in this country.
In many places though. have gone beyond
healthy necessary reform. We have adopted blanket
legislation which renders children practically useless
until they arrived at the age of sixteen. They
are shut off from all remunerative employment al
lowed no opportunity for training in the practical
affairs Of life. cut off from all of cultvating
The very necessary quality Of self-reliance.
\. The advocates of this sweeping child labor egs-
htion probably did thought of the fact that
practically every prominent, self made in the
country from Benjamin Franklin to Carnegie ana
schwab had been workers in their youth; had begun
laying the foundations of their fortunes before they

they were sixteen were newsboys, errand boys boot

Of the advantages which circumstances forced upon
them many would not have succeeded. The too much
sheltered youth is apt to grow up idler or
veakling.
We do not think that unless required by the
igency OF supporting himself, widowed mother or
weaker members of his family boy under sixteen
should be allowed to be engaged in any steady occu-
baton which will interfere with an opportunity to
secure least a school education But there
i no sense in surrounding him with legislation which

N which must all engage the strong to succeed
and the weak to go down. t.,'

my boys should receive any allowances from his par
