Judging by the reports received from
the various Industrial plants about this
city, thousands OF school children un-
der the age Of i6 years, who worked
during their vacation perioS last year,

it Is expected that the Fairgrounds

According 10 child labor Investigation
many children who have been weaned
from their school studies trace their
dislike for the study books and school

While working during the summer
months they view life from a more
materiallstic viewpoint, and within Il
short time they cease 90 be children

With the demand for workers he
