That Wyoming women's clubs
generally r disappointed by the
action Of the state legislature in
giving little consideration to the
child labor amendment. goes without
saying.
Practically every organization OF
in the state has reported
during the past several weeks favor
for the amendment and its lmme.
diate ratification by Wyoming
solons. There have been but one
or two exceptions and even these
clubs announced themselves favor
able to a modified restriction on
child labor.
With the burden Of failure resting,
however. outside of this state, the
cause of pressing the amendment
for attention in this commonwealth
is being allowed to drop and the
attention of women citizens Of this
state is now directing itself upon
tho proposal Of establishing juvenile
courts in Wyoming.
It is believed the legislature win
be importuned by tho majority Of
women's clubs to pass a measure
before Il adjourns that will mako
possible tho conduct of Juvenile
courts where ever they are required
in tho state.
Just before the legislature decided
to do nothing with tho child labor
amendment. the Woman's w. T. X.
club Of Wheatlsnd voted hat zach

Platte county's senators and repre-
sentatives at Cheyenne, requesting
