TO GIVE CHILDREN A CHANCE. Dr. Lindsay's Visit to the West in Interest of Child Labor. Dr. Samuel McCune Lindsay, secretary of the National Child Labor Committee, of which Dr.

Felix Adler is chairman, returned yesterday from a three weeks' trip to the leading cities of the Western States, as far as Denver. The purpose of the trip was chiefly to confer with those Interested In securing child labor legislation or enforcing existing legislation in the several States visited. A few public meetings were held, and addresses on the subject of child labor were made by the secretary of the national committee in Chicago, Kansas City. Denver, lowa City and Cleveland. Important conferences with members of the legislatures and others were held at Topeka, Omaha.

Dcs Moineu. lowa, and Madison. in addition to the places already mentioned. Dr. Lindsay reports that he found everywhere a healthy public sentiment crystallizing in favor of the child, and a determination on the part of people of all political parties for a progressive movement that will express itself In concrete legislation and in active enforcement of all laws relating to the employment of children.

Abundant evidence was found of the actual employment of children of eleven, twelve and thirteen years of age, under the most distressing circumstances, in nearly every community visited. "There was also some indication of a desire on part of phllantnropic and charitable societies to face the problem squarely and to devise some means of relief, where children are made the victims of extreme poverty in the family, which seems to demand their sacrifice as a means of temporary relief," says Dr. Lindsay. "A wiser and more farseeing form of relief must be devised to meet such oases. "In a family of a widow, with several children to support, under adverse circumstances of extreme poverty, a burden of responsibility gnater than the average naturally falls upon the eldest child.

To put him at work before he is physically able, or at work for which he is not prepared la on! postponing the final breakdown of the family. Such a child needs, rather, more protection than the average child of tender years, and a sane public policy, combined with private philanthropy, will find some way of giving a child under these circumstances a chance for normal physical development and the opportunity to lay the' basis for an elementary education up to his fourteenth birthday. This case is a type most frequently met with in all communities a an instance of the difficulties of enforcing child- labor legislation; but the prevailing sentiment, everywhere is becoming more enlightened and adopting the theory that the community is called upon, if necessary, to make whatever sacrifice is necessary for the welfare of the child and of the future. "With a sentiment in favor of child labor restriction, the forces in the several communities visited are combining for better enforcement of existing legislation. In Kansas, a child labor law was defeated at the last session of the legislature, a new bill has been introduced, with lair promise of success this year.

lowa is planning for an earner campaign at the next session of Its legislature, one year hence, and Ohio is planning lor some stricter measures and some extension of the scope of its excellent legislation at the next session of its legislature. The national committee will co-operate with all persona in these several communities in the preparation and distribution of literature suited to the special needs of each community, and will endeavor to bring the experience In various parts of the country to bear upon each particular problem as it arises." PRAISE FOR MR. PALLAS. Daughters Pleased with His Decision About Jumel Mansion. "Commissioner Pallas's decision to Keep the custody of the Jutnel Mansion In the Department of Parks was the only means by which g-ood results to all could be secured." said Mrs.

William Cumming Story yesterday afternoon before the Manhattan Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, of which she. is regent. "I can say that the Daughters are glad the trouble is tlius settled, and we are Invited to contribute all of our Revolutionary reiirs for the museum as soon as possible. "During the three year? while I have been secretary of the AYashington Headquarters Association, I have seen many prominent men in my tripn to Albany and my countless interviews here, but I have seen none more Just and courteous than Mr. Pallas.

He has faced a situation which many men older in politics have refused to meet, and he has given most careful attention both sides of the question. This decision will not in the leapt affect the plans of the for a patriotic entertainmi which will be held at the Jumel Mansion on February '11.

The "simple life" Is living to the best of our ability the polden rule, remembering that none are Infallible, all are wea'. nd human, and that it only by strength gained through Divine power and oftentimes that saves us from falling- Into errors we may despise another.

It in grasping the opportunities, ta'iing gladly wealth and all good gifts of life that we may be the better fitted to help one less favored. It Is in seeking the lowly in the byways of life and humbly giving a helping hand, lest we bruise the wounded heart: It is encouraging and giving hope to the outcast and speaking kindly to the Borrow stricken. The "simple life" is in burying as best we ran life's sorrows and heartaches, and. because of the knowledge gained through such Buffering. In endeavoring to aid weaker mortals, it la not thinking ourselves overrlghteous, but rather fortunately blessed, that we have been red through some mysterious power from tne pitfalls that have caused other to err.

The "simple life" may be practised at home and abroad; it Is not necessary to give away all our belongings nor to shut ourselves from the world; It is I think, to perform any duty, no matter bow hard, remembering that we are brothers and placed here to help one short. It is making hay while the sun shines, that we may not. on that great day, meet our Creator with empty hands and fearful hearts. "FRANK. Manhattan.

This for rich ana poor alike, the simple life, It cures greed and envy; It opens our eyes to the. essentials; it enables us to measure values, to look for and prize the highest. C. 8.

A New-Jersey invalid whose emergency need was noted "writes: "The letter came just when 1 was thinking how I could possibly get some coal, food and medicine. There was not a piece of coal in the house, and my own distress is increased because I cannot leave my bed to help the family. Surely God will reward the T. S. S.

members for all their generous deeds. A Manhattan gentlewoman says: How good or you to think of us in such a helpful way: lour letter with money, came at an hour when tiie whole world seemed against us." A Pennsylvania cripple finds no words to express her thanks for timely help given to her from the coal fund. A West Virginia member who was obliged to send her Christmas greeting for her doctor's bill instead of buying the warm wrapper needed had the latter want supplied from the emergency fund, and so unexpectedly her heart is filled with sunshine and gTatitude.

I gave so many garments earlier In the winter to a poor widow, who was left with five children to care for. and to another family of four little children without warm stockings and flannels, that I haven't as large a parcel as I should be glad to send you.

It had seemed to the Carrisbrookes the Jolliest and most unconventional thing In the world to take Hamblcdon Cottage, Instead of making the round of autumn visits which they usually made before settling down in their eeeey little flat In Curzon Street. The Cottage was a small one. comfortably furnished, and had been built. Carrisbrooke declared, when she first saw It, in the later days of Noah, for it combined much of the architecture of the Ark with several small conveniences which long confinement in that structure must have taugiit him to be useful. Both Aggie and her husband had the same tastes; both were fond of and the Cottage carried some good shooting with it.

Besides, both wife and husband were motor-car enthusiasts, and for the first lew weeks at Haaablsdeai time flew by very swiftly.
