I am forty years of age. and feel that T am equipped

I reside in the county seat, and will reside there if elected,
I will be at all times accessible. Myself or any of the large

HARRISBURG £§£&£& TELEGRAPH
This decision was given in response
to a request from Commissioner John
Price Jackson of the Department of
Labor and Industry. The opinion of
the Attorney General is embodied in
the following letter:
Honorable John Price Jackson,
Commissioner of Labor & Industry,
Hnrrisburg, Pa.:
Dear Sir: —I have your favor in
quiring whether working children's
certificates obtained before January
1, 1916, would continue to be valid
after that date.
1 beg to advise you tliat the certifi
cates issued to working children under
sixteen years of age, pursuant to the
Acts of 1909 and 1911, should con
tinue in force until the holders thereof
attain the age of sixteen, but after
January 1, 1916, these children are
required to attend the continuation
schools, and not work more than
fifty-one hours per week, as required
by the act of 1915.
I will forward you a formal opinion
within a day or two.
Yours very truly.
(Signed) FRANCIS S. BROWN,
Attorney General.
This decision clears away all the
doubt which has existed in the minds
of both the school authorities and em
ployers as to the validity of certifi
cates and great numbers of inquiries
had been received by Commissioner
Jackson on this question.
For the last few months the De
partment of Lat>or and Industry and
ithe Department of Public Instruction,
have been co-operating in urging the
school authorities to take steps to
establish continuation classes, on
January 1, next, as required by the
Child Labor Law, which goes into ef
fect that day. This work will now
go forward with renewed energy as
the school authorities realize that the
law makes it mandatory upon them
to establish continuation classes. Ac
tive preparations for meeting the re
quirements of the new law are under
way in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh,
Scranton, Wilkes-Kane, Pottstown.
Altoona, Harrisburg. Allentown, Eas
ton. Mauch Chunk, and Pottsville.
The State Board of Education has
Issued a pamphlet of instruction con
cerning the Child Labor Act and con
tinuation schools. This pamphlet Is
being sent to every employer in Penn
sylvania and the authorities in every
school district. It sets forth fully,
the requirements of the new law. It
also gives the standards of physical
fitness for the guidance of physicians
in examining minors who apply for
employment certificates after January
1. next.

ALBRIGHT FRESHMEN" KEEP
SOPHS FROM BANQUET
Special to The Telegraph
Lebanon. Pa., Oct. 30. Albright
College sophomores and freshmen
clashed in this city when the former
endeavored to reach Lancaster for
their annual banquet, scheduled for |
last night.
Thirty members of the sophomore
class left Mverstown in a large auto
mobile truck bound for this city,
where they planned to board the train
for Lancaster. On learning of the
sophomores' departure, six freshmen,
all members of the football team,
jumped Into a touring car and gave
chase. They overhauled the truck two
miles out of this city and there was a
fight, which was continued here. The
police were finally called to protect
the sophomores, who missed their
train and were required to spend three
hours in the depot, while the fresh
men kept guard. President Slireppler,
of the sophomore class, whom the
freshmen sought to capture, succeeded
in escaping.
