CHILD LABOR RULE MADE BY COLLINS Decides That Minors Can Not Work in Their Parents' Bav- Roonis at Any Time In nn opinion vv\\ Palmer, chief In y\\\A spector o£ the State f Department of i*- '' ol and Industry, t> e p u t y Attorney riflSSSAk' General Collins dt>- I JHilWWriffltew cldos that minors •SM MRJnJffll are not on, - v to ~ jß*" 60 bidden to work in ■P" 11 mflfS hiivrnnmsnnii nliiOc* where liquors arc sold, but that they may not work oc casionally In such places when their -■parents are owners. "Although tho child's home be that of the parents, yet work in the parent's barroom, although kept in tho same house as tho home, cannot bo con strued aa 'domestic service in private homes' within the meaning of that term as used in section 1 of the act, wherein such service Is excepted from Ihe application of the act. To permit a parent to have his tnlnor child work in a barroom of which tho parent Is the proprietor or to allow any other proprietor of such place, which stands in loco parentis to a minor, to have said minor work in his barroom, would be to withhold from children of that class the protection which the act by its aforesaid provision affords to chil dren generally. Parental control over minor children, or right to their labor, is not absolute, but always subject to Ihe regulations of the law where the welfare of the child needs the inter ference of tho law." Mr. Collins also holds that where a minor holding tin employment cer tificate removes with his parents to another district thero is no need to obtain a new certificate. Bids Opened.

LINES Must Save Scrap Paper; Cut Down Supplies; Means Big Saving "Kconomy" lias boon added to tho Pennsylvania Safety program. Orders wore posted to-day In all de partments calling upon employes to cut down In Use of supplies. High cost of living, officials say, make tills order necessary. It Is the second economical move In a year, Some months ago in structions were given to hoard up uil waste paper and sell It. The latest order issued l>y President Samuol Rtfa follows: "1 desire to call your attention to the exceptionally high prices of all classes or materials and supplies. This increase in cost, in many cases 'ex ceeding 100 per cent., and in some cases 2(10 per cent, or higher, is becoming more serious for the company, and is one of the main causes for its decreased net earnings, despite greater gross earnings. Therefore, in tliti interest of :ill concerned, it is essential to prac tice the strictest economy in ordering and using materials and supplies. Of ficers will bring this notice to the at tention of all employes and request their co-operation in all measures re quired to make it effective," ■Widespread Order The order means that the strlctost economy is to be observed In tho or dering of everything, from wrapping paper to locomotives, and an instance of how tho saving of all scraps of paper usually dumped out as waste from all the offices and stations and shops along the lines east of Pittsburgh will not a return of around $50,000 a year, It is said. The railroad lias distributed 10,000 burlap bags to the stations and offices, in which are posted orders forbidding the burning of any paper waste. In tho bags the scraps are placed, and tho loaded bags are taken-up by the regu lar supply trains and carried to the central point of each division, from which the waste is shipped In carload lots io Pitcairn, just east of Pitts burgh. At Pltcairn an electrip baler puts the paper 'together ready for the man who holds tlie contract to buy it. It has been estimated that tho scraps gathered along the different lines will amount to about 2.500 tons a year. This crusade is under the charge or tho pur chasing department, which operates its own baler. As the baled paper brings the higher price, the return is figured at between ninety cents and $1 a hun dred pounds, and as there are fi,000,000 pounds in 2,500 tons it is easy to cal culate the planned saving.

Under his management iiie war works at tained much importance in the indus trial world. In 1909 the car works were made a subsidiary of the Standard Steel Company, Mr. King remaining head of the branch. Learned Machinist Trade Arthur King, the son of John 11. and Mary Greer King, was born July 1, 1841. He was educated mainly at Harper's Ferry and I tagerstown and after leaving school, lived three years in Philadelphia and two or three years in Parkersburg, W. Va. He learned the machinist's trade when sixteen years old at Martinsburg, W. Va., and during the Civil War worked at the famous Jenks small firearm factory in Philadelphia, and also for the Sharps rifle works in the same city. • He later removed to York where he became foreman of the car works of G. W. Ilgenfritz. He was foreman in the Ilgenfritz works twelve years and in 1879 he became connected with the Middletown work*. He married Lydia A. Ilgenfritz, daughter of his former employer in 1868. Mrs. King survives him. Mr. King received the degree of master of arts from Wittenberg Col lege, Springfield, Ohio, in 1903. Although at one time connected With the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, he was connected with no fraternal organizations of late years, lie was a Republican in politics. While living in York Mr. King served as a school director and as a member of city council. At York he was a member of St. Paul's Lutheran Church and served as superintendent of the Sunday School of that church for ten years. In addition to Mrs. King, ho is sur vived by three children and eleven grandchildren. His children are George I. King, connected with the Eastern Car Company of Nova Scotia- Mrs. Paul A. Kunkel, of this city, and Mrs. David P. Deatrick, of Middle town. FATHER OF CITY ROMPER DAY DIES [Continued From First Page] for nearly forty years, Mr. Kunkel was widely known throughout this section and the state. He was 66 years old. As tho man who made "Romper Day" tho one big event of the year for thousands of children of this city, Mr. Kunkel endeared himself to the younger generation and held a unique place in the charitable activities of the community. His kindliness was wide spread among the poor families of Harrlsburg, whom he aided, always in a quiet way. but with a liberal hand. Mr. Kunkel was happiest in his CONSTANT HEADACHES People with thin blood are much more itibjoet to headaches than full-blooded persona and the form of anemia that af flicts growing girls is almost always ac companied by headache together with digestive disturbances and constipation. Whenever you have constant or re curring headaches and pallor of the face they show that the blood is thin and your efiorts should be directed towards building up your blood. A treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do this effectively and the rich, red blood will remove tne headache. More disturbances to health are caused by thin blood than you have any idea of. When the blood is impover ished the nerves sufl'er from lack of nourishment and you may have in somnia, neuritis, neuralgia or sciatica. Muscles subject to strain are under nourished and you may have muscular rheumatism or lumbago. If your blood is thin and you begin to show symp toms of thee disorders try building up the blood with Dr. Williams' Pink Pilla and see if (ho symptoms do not disap pear as tho blood is restored to normal. Get Dr Williams' Pink Pills at the nearest drug store or send fifty cents to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schen ectady N Y The booklet' Building Up the Blood' is free on request. JANUARY 31, 1917. "play among the children," as he de scribed his part in the "Kompor Day" entertainment. Ever since 1909 he has made this annual event the most popular day in the year for the little ones, tip until that time the exhi bition ol' the children's exercises at Reservoir Park was without a feast. Air. Kunkel thought tills was a nils take and he promjrtly corrected it. The first feast was attended by one thousand children and each year the number increased until over four thousand wero fed at the last "Romper Day," held on the last Friday in Au gust, 1915. The event was not held last summer because of infantile pa ralysis rulings. Whenever a circus came to town, two or three hundred youngsters from the streets went to see It as the guests of their good friend "Sam" Kunkel. Permanent Fund Provided While it is not known to be a cer tainty, those who have been most closely associated with Mr. Kunkel are of the opinion that provision has been mado in his will for a fund to provide the "eats" on the annual "Romper Day" in the future. Although Mr. Kunkel was probably best known in this city for his chari table work, he was prominent in po litical and financial affairs. He was a lifelong Democrat and one of the leaders of his party in the state. While he was always ready to serve his party, he could never be induced to run for office in state, county or city. At the time of his death he was treas urer of the State Democratic com mittee. Mr. Kunkel was born in Sliippens burg, Pa., in 1850. He was educated in the country schools and until he was twenty clerked in a general store in his home town. He then came to Harrlsburg and entered tho drug store of Samuel A. Kunkel, who was a cousin. He later 'became bookkeeper in the Mechanics Bank, of which his uncle, Jacob C. Bomberger, was owner. In 1897 Mr. Kunkel was made assist ant cashier and he retained that post until 1010, when he retired from active connection with tho bank. He was one of the leading stockholders and a director in the Mechanics Trust Com pany and was a director of tho Har rlsburg Railways Company, the Chest nut Street Market Company and the recently organized Harrisburg Hotel Company, which is planning to build STOMACH ACTING IP?
