PRINCE AND PAUPER - IN WOODEN SHOES Shortage of Leather Brings Back Former Custom Correspondence of tne assocfated Press.) Berlin, April 29.—After more than a centur: popularity and disuse, except among the peasantry, wooden shoes are be- coming the vogue with school child- ren once more, and their use is being actively and practically encouraged by school authorities. The reason, of course, is the scarc- ity and unprecedented expensiveness of leather shoes which gradually have caused people to forget the old- time dislike of and stigma attach- ing to wooden shoes. Hundreds of school children in the past few | weeks have taken, either to leather shoes with wooden soles, or to the old all-wooden ‘“pantine.” The first move in favor of a re- sumption af wooden shoes was taken by the school authorities in notify- ing teachers that they should coun- tenance the use of such things in spite of all the nolse made when the children clattered about the bare flecors in them. Then the authorities of the suburb of Lichterfelde went a step further and offered a premium of one mark to all children being in part or en- tirely supported who would wear wooden shoes with wooden soles for a period of four weeks. Those author- ities who have charge of support- ing the famiiies of saldlers spent a considerable sum of money in the purchase of several hundred pairs of shoes, which were offered to the public at prices ranging from a little cver a dollar and a half a pair. At first only the boys took to the new shoes, but gradually the girls too have adopted them, and hun- dreds of both sexes wear them to school daily and save their expensive leather shoes for Sundays and speclal occasions. Gradually they are winning a vague in other parts of Berlin, and, of course, are widely worn in the country districts. The history of the “pantine” or wooden slipper, generally without heels of any sort, goes back for cen- turies. Along in the early years of, the eighteenth century an edict was issued in Prussia against their use, and not only were persons who dis- obeyved punished but communities which permitted their use were fined heavily. For a long time, however, they continued to be so popular that the edict had to be renewed more than once. People really them only when they of badge of povert and their use has never entirely isappeared in country districts where they are far better protection than leather against mud and wet, and where their dura- Tility naturally commends itself to the peasants, Paper shortage, like the leather shortage, is also having its effects in the Prussian schools in the decree by the minister of education that from now on slates shall to the fullest pos- sible extent replace the old-time paper bookiets in which the children have been accustomed to do their lessons. In issuing his decree, Minister von Trott zu Solz called the attention of teachers to the fact that because of the shartage of paper children who still have to use the bound books must be made to use up every avail- and that the books no stopped wearing became a sort S.

Press.) Tokio, April 15.—Social reformers are expressing satisfaction over the putting into operation of a new law | by which something like a million Japanese factory workers will be | benefited. The new law applies to some 11,000 factories employing ordinarily not fewer than 15 operatives or those engaged in dangerous or injurious work. The main features of the bill are the prohibition of child labor in any heavy work; the prohibition of employment 6f male workers undet 15 years and females of ony age for more than 12 hours in a sin | gle day and the prohibition of the employment of male operatives under 15 and all females between the hours of+10 p, m, and 4 a. m. except in exceptional cases when speedy execu- tion of a contract on hand.is rc- quired. Many Holidays. Furthermore, factory owners are | required to give at least 2 holidays a month to male operatives under 15 and to all females, with the under-! standing that this number is to be doubled in case the work is carried on | day and night and the operatives en- saged are divided into two groupsanrd | work in turn. Tt is forbidden to em- | ploy bovs under 15 or women for such work as cleaning, oiling or repairing of machines in motion or for any cth- er dangerous work such as the hand- !inz of explosives or poisonous or any injurious material and in a general | way where conditions are dangerous | or hygienically harmful. Another provision is that in case of injury or death of the operative through no gross fault of his own the owner of the factory shall give relief to the operative or his family. The regulations also provide a fine for violation of the law. An Imperial Ordinance. ‘The bill was originally promulgated | in the form of an imperial crdinance | in 1911 but its enforcement had been | postponed until now on the ground of | a lack of appropriation required for | the establishment of the factory de- partment of the government and the payment of officials necessary to s pervise the operation of the law | | i | When the .bill was adopted it was se- | the ground trat | | meet the evils | | | | | i | | verely criticized on it did not sufficiently of the child factory system. Some of the provisions have been revised since that time and the bill is rore satisfactory in its present form to the Japanese people who are insiting upon social reform. In connection with the new regu- | lations the government in preparing | to draft and enforce new conditions pertaining to the control of mining | with a view to improve the condi- tions of work in mines where fire | damps and explosions have frequent- 1y caused loss of life. The latest factory returns show that about 14,000 boys and 55,000 girls under 14 years of age are cm- ployed throughout the country. Con- siderable scope is given to the in- spectors under the new regulations and it may reasonably be expected that a great many of the present day evils of the Japanese factory system will be eradicated.
