CHILD LABOR
AND EDUCATION
Acting-in accord with a ruling
of the attorney general’s depart-
ment that he had authority to
adopt such a course, State Labor
Commissioner Connally has mail-
ed letters to employers through-
out Oklahoma warning them
against employing children under
15 years of age in certain occupa-
tions, such as work in barber
shops, hotels, shoe shining par-
lors, drug store or other parcel de-
livery service or as telephone and
telegraph messengers.
Without regard to the question
of hazards to morals, to life or
limb involved in Mr. Connally’s
ruling, it appears that regulations
which will have a tendency to in-
crease the attendance at schools
training school will answer.
Whenever a group of parents get
together, whether it he >it home,
picnic, or church, and the ques-
tion of the kind of an education
to give a boy or girl comes up,
-ome well informed parent and a
matron of the Tyler Commercial
College, Tyler, Texas, will tell of
the advantages of this famous in-
-titution and what wonderful re-
sult,. it accompli>hed for his son
or daughter in a remarkable short
period of time, and at a small ex-
pense Write for a catalogue of

are wise. In some states, all chil-
dren under 16 years of age are
compelled to attend school. They
are permitted to work part time,
if they wish, in certain occupa-
tions, but arc not allowed to let
such work interfere with their
studies.
It would be well if arrange-
ments could be made so that all
boys and girls of school age in
Oklahoma would attend school.

Isn’t it remarkable how easy it
is for a man to pile up an over-

About the bitterest thing we
can imagine is for the market to

One of our feminine readers re-
quests us to estate that people
should be more careful when driv
ing, and to always drive to the
right as two accidents had been
narrowly averted for faijure to
observe this rule. Reckless driv-
ing has been the cost of many
lives.

week in the Times has a synopsi

very remarkable story and one of
the very best that has run in the
Times for sometime.

Another reason why we think
