Twice before he had served peni- tentiary sentences. And he was guilty he admits it. “Dan” wanted to go “straight.” He wondered if he COULD. Only those who have been outside the pale of society know what a struggle it is to “come back.” “Dan” did come back. His first semi- annual report, made to those who helped in their small way to ease his path, shows what determination and good honest plug- ging will do. “Dan” has a good job now, ‘but when he started out it was down in a ditch with a pick and shovel. : Take that lesson home. Your own job often seems hard and things get into a chabit of breaking wrong for you. But all of society is helping you to fight your battle. “Dan” had to overcom ‘those obstacles and the far greater one winning back the respect of those with whom he worked. And he says: “Six months nas taugnt me that it’s really worth the effort’ Suc- cess is only a,matter of determining to go after it.” Isn't that true? in, th “Class Legislation” “(LASS legislation!” That’s what Governor Hartley said when he vetoed the $400,000 seed credit bill that was passed by the legislature to aid hard-pressed farmers east of the mountains. If there was nothing further than that in the governor’s mind to occasion the veto, it is our opinion that he will find in the end that by killing this so-called “class legislation” he has killed off a goose that lays golden eggs for us all.

Child Labor JOE, aged 13 ix children Their father was dead. Their mother a pretty hard struggle in providing for them, The little home in which they lived was next door to a grain elevator and Joe got himself job there, working after school hours, despite the fact tha he was under the legal age. He took th money he received home to his mothe At the end of the school term he got an all-day job. One of the things Joe had to do was to get into the grain bin, 18 feet deep, while it was being filled and stamp the grain into the corners. It was a task that made him step lively and for a time Joe enjoyed it. There was an element of risk about it that gave him a thrill. The grain came so rapidly and in such big volume that unless he clung tightly to the sides of the bin there was danger of his being sucked into the hopper. That is what finally happened to Joe, ccording to the Consumers’ League of astern Pennsylvania, which investigated his case. Boys of 13 are notoriously irresponsible. They get careless about the most impor- tant things. Something ought to be done was one of had | about them. Their employers might obtain a law requiring boys to change their natures and be careful—boys, at least, who accept This would be a good time for employers to undertake this, by the way, since in some states employers appear to have a great deal more influ- ence with legislators than boys do. One August morning, so the report continues, Joe was up, breakfasted and | over to the elevator by 7 o'clock. There was a car of grain to be unloaded and Joe was lowered into the big bin as usual. The chute was opened and the flood of grain started. Almost immediately something went wrong. The chute apparently had become clogged. One of the men climbed into the bin to investigate and he found Joe's lifeless body tightly wedged into the chute. His employers first maintained that Joe was not employed by them, that he had merely come into the mill to play, But | his name was found on their payroll and the court found them guilty of illegally employing a minor. They were fined $25 and costs.
