panels drop from the waistline at
either side, while the frock is
girdled in bronze links strung to-
gethef by a chain of bronze and
set with amber stones.
Metallic laee is highly popular
this season. The green-blue tat

MORE THAN A MILLION OF
AMERICAS CHILDREN ARE
WORKING FOR DAILY BREAD

Washington, Aug, 11.-More than
a million American children between
10 and Is years old are engaged in
gainful occupation 1,O60,6bS being the
exact figures, according to a census
bureau report today.
Out of every thousand boys of those
ages 113 were recorded as employed
either on their own account or for
wages, while Sc per cent of the girls
were so employed. Reports showed a
decrease since 1910 of 54.S per cent
from the number Of children employed
in agriculture 6O.2 per cent in mining
and 20 per cent in manufacturing and
industrial occupations.
Those engaged in other occupations
increased in the same decade by 1873
per cent
The bureau explained that the de-
cided decreases in certain occupations
was partly explained by the change in
census date from April, 1910, to Janu-
airy, 1920.
