"Although tho child's home be that
of the parents, yet work in the parent's

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

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.

ORDER ECONOMY
ON P. R. R. 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.

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.

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
