LEGACY LEFT BY THE WAR
National Organization Finds That Many Under the Age of Fourteen Are Being EmpIoyed-Retained
 Because of "Cheapness."

"The war leaves us a legacy of in creased child labor" says the national child labor committee. 'In the single state of Pennsylvania, in the last two years, the number of wage workers fourteen and fifteen years old has in creased by 50 per cent. This condi- ton is not confined to Pennsylvania, but is found in all sections of the country. There has been a vast in crease in the labor of children under fourteen. years old"
 According to the committee circum- stances will make it more difficult for children to return to school now than it was for them to leave it. Although some are being dismissed from their work because of peace times many are being retained because they are "cheap labor" The committee estimates that no less than two million child workers in America will, need to be protected when affairs return to normal.

MUST DEPEND ON UNION.

Boston-If bakery workers secure the abolishment of night work in this state it must be done through their trade union, as Attorney General Att will has ruled that legislative action on this line is unconstitutional. The house then defeated this proposal.
 The state official quoted court de- the management resulted in the wage cisions to uphold his opinion, but ac- knowledges that if night work in bak- cries has any reasonable relation to the public health an act of this char acter "might be sustained as valid regulation"
 This means that if the bakery work CTS develop public opinion regarding the unhealthfulness of night work, a law might be sustained"
 If these workers depend on their economic power, however, and thor oughly organize the baking industry, instead of taking chances with the and the courts, there will be no question as to their success.

Use Your Knowiedoe.

It is self-evident fact that the peo- pie who know the most do not always accomplish the most. And that is be- cause many do not know how to use their knowledge. It is like gold buried in the ground instead of being invested and bearing a good interest. Do not trust for your success to knowing things, for it depends instead on your knowing how to use what you know.

Doinq Right.

Everything on earth has it's price, and sooner or later we pay for all that we have. When we complain that do- ing right takes so much toll of effort, sacrifice, and the loss of what we call success" we have only to look about us to see that evil-doing is more costly still. It's demands may come in on the instailmenr plan, but they will be all the more exorbitant because of that.

HAS GOOD CHANCE
New Idea Sprung on Fans by
English Doctor, Who Holds
Victory Depends on Gre
action Time"

London, Dec. 2o.-The chance oil
Jack Dempsey, worlds heavyweight
champion, to win in his proposed
fight with Georges Carpenter, the
famous Frenchman, will depend
more upon Dempsey's reaction
time than upon any superiority he
may posses in weight and muscular
power. according to medical writ
er in the Evening News. In explain
ing what he means by reaction
time" the author says:
Briefly the reaction time of a
muscle or set of muscles is the meas
urable period which elapses between
the impulse to act and its transfor-
nation into action.
The differences in reaction time
are very great. A man with big
reaction time cannot hope by prac-
tlce to become the equal in this re-
spect of another born with a small
reaction time interviewer with
this is psychological reaction time
or quick and slow wittedness.
IF he is symmetrically formed,
has the average amount of courage,
a sound heart and lungs and has
mastered the art of boxing, heavy
weight of II stone clos pounds)
with a small physical and psychology
ical reaction time has sufficient
muscular power to deal with a man
with fairly big reaction time what
ever the latter's size and reach may
be. There is not shadow of doubt
that Carpenter possesses an abnor-
mally small reaction time physi-
caliy and mentally"

New York, Dec. 26.-(By Uni

Carpenter fight will be staged in
London If Dempsey signs up, said
Charles B. Cochran, the fight pro-
moter, who handled the Carpenter
Beckett battle in London when ne
arrived from Southampton, England,
aboard the Mauretamia.
Mr.. Cochran, here to look after
Capentier's theatrical interests, will
go west in a few days, to talk with
Dempsey.
Has Carpenters Contract.
II have a contract with Capentier
for him to fight at any place | ar
range" said the fight promoter,
"the contract holds for the next year
and a half"
In wireless message from the
Mauritania before he arrived, Mr..
Cochran declared his readiness to
offer Dempsey 100000 for his end
of the purse.
Has Two Reasons.
There are two reasons why
I want to stage the fight in London"
said Cochran, first. England is a
neutral ground for Dempsey, the
American, and Carpenter, the
Frenchman. Next, l want to avoid
all difficulties in getting the fran
chise, or trouble that may arise from
a spirit of opposition in America"
There never has been so much
enthusiasm for boxing in England
before. Carpenter has put the
sport on higher plane. He has
proved himself a gentleman as we'll
as a fighter. That appeals to the
English and the clergy, the gentry
and the intellectuals of the coun-
try, are all behind the game. War
activities have also helped to make
boxing popular"
