The street lamplighter, contrary to
popular belief, has not disappeared,
according to the children's bureau of

on a recent investigation, the bureau
says:
''The limplighter, once familiar
figure in American cities, is as ex-
tinct as the dodo = or at least
everyone thought he was. But the
children's bareau of the Uniter States
department of labor has found proof
to the contrary.
"Not only does the lamplighter still
go about his daily task, but he is en-
ployed in large industrial city.
However, instead of the old man of
story-book and tradition he is very
young boy.
'In Newark, N. j., one of six cities
in which the children's bureau made
stsdy of children engaged in all
kinds of street work, boys were found
working as lamplighters.

DEATHS
In Industry Are Costly To
Society

Albany, N. Y.-Injuries and deaths
in industry in this state last year cost
society the productive labor of more
than 10000 men and women for that
period, according to estimates based
on reports by the State Department of
Labor.
More than $4,000 workers received
injuries serious enough to disable
them for week or more More than
$4,000 workers suffered injuries which
will handicap them partially in their
future lives.
There were 1,129 deaths and total
disability cases, 81 more than in 1927.
Compensatio nwas awarded for more
than 1,163 900 weeks in permanent
partial and temporary cases. This
does not include the first week of i'll,
ness, in which no compensation is
paid, except in cases that last 4S days
If the customary allowance of 1,OOC
weeks is made for each death and
permanent total case, the grand total
of weeks equals more than 2,34O,O 900

We are living in 0-mile-an-hour

quickly we take chances unwarranted

TIE average man is likely to trust too

Chere is an important difference be.

can afford to lose, the former may be
justified; but the latter is the wiser

UNEMPLOYMENT
In New York Grows; Win.
ter Outlook Bad

New York.-Unemployment in New
York state this summer has made lit
tie recovery from that of last winter
and may prove worse than the slump
year of 1921, according to statistical
returns Of the State Department Of La
Dor.
Wages are not declining, according
to these reports, but opportunities for
work have lessened. Reports from
missions and relief organizations do
not sustain the prosperity cry. Jobs
are few and far between and the out
look for winter is gloomier than it
was at this time last year, according
to these social services.
"The employment condition is seri-
Gus, but people never wake up to the
fact that it is bad until there is a
panic. Actually it is no better than
last winter when here was such an
outcry," said DIR. E. B. Patton, direc-
tor of the bureau Of statistics Of the
State Department of Labor.
