CHILD LABOR LAW TO STAND
Probation Officer Bernstein Says He
Will Enforce Statute
OPERATION NOT EAST TO SUSPEND
Oplnlna Reader ay Attorney f
ftrkool Hoar 4 Will Nwt Be Blad-

Officers.
Probation Officer Bernstein of th Juvenile
court announce that he has decided that
th child labor law shall b enforced in
Omaha despite th opinion recently ren
dered by the attorney for th Board of
Education, Implying that the law Is hot to
be enforced during- the vacation mantha.
He spoke to th attorney general by tela,
phone and aaked th opinion of that officer
aa to the meaning of tha sections of th
law on which th aohoot board'a attorney
based his opinion. Th attorney general
declined to render an opinion at this time,
but told Mr. Bernstein that should a re
quest for such opinion com from th
county attorney he would render one. Th
probation officer saw th county attorney
and that officer announced that h would
Immediately ask for auoh opinion.
Speaking of the subject of th law In
general, Officer Bernstein said:
"Th probation officer will enforce the
child labor law until th attorney general
or th governor tell them that It hi not
to be enforced. Thla we will do in self
defense. W cannot permit this law to be
Ignored, because ehlldren who See this law
disregarded may ses no reason Why they
should obey other laws. Mengr ootn
pantea are the worst offenders, for they not
only employ children during hour declared
Illegal, but they aend them into places
where no child should go. W cannot af
ford to temporise and officers of th Ju
venile court will be instructed to make ar
rests In a short time. Wet oan test th
law In th court and place Ita provision be
yond the opinion of any attorney. But w
desire to secure the opinion 'of the attor
ney general before putting any case In the
hands of th county attorney, who is
guided of the chief legal officer of the
state.
"As far aa th opinion of th attorney
of tha school board Is concerned. It may be
good law, but It la net binding on us until
th court speaks."
Superintendent Davidson did not desire to
be quoted on th Subject, but It was ths
opinion of soma members of the Board of
Education that, under th opinion of th
attorney, he would refuse to Issue certifi
cates to applicant. Thlg would mean that
no ehlldren can secure thf required legal
permission to work and thnt alt employers
will be placed In the position of violating
th law should they employ any child under
the age of 14 yeara.
INDUSTRY'S TRIBUTE OF LIFE
One-Half of Pit tskarx Death
Tlctlms of mill and
Rati roods.
Th grim and tragic side of Pittsburg
Industrial supremacy, as reflected in the
county coroner' log book of violent deaths,
is beginning to arouse a feeling of horror
at the frightful cost of the wealth which
Its millionaires are piling up.'
When the coroner closed his log for 190
he found that In th year ha .had been
called on to record a total of 2,8ft) deaths
Of these 919 were the result directly of
accident In' mill, mine', or on railroad,' the
Industries most essential to the city's prog
ress. Sufficient more of the total number
Of death In the city were,! Indjreotty - at

than SO per cent of all the death the cost

In Pittsburg for 100S.
Appalling aa these figures are. th
chance are that a new record will be
established thla year. Already In th five
monma inai nave eiapsea. i.uk aeatna
have been recorded in th coroners' log, therefore, the solution of this transports-,
and of these 844 came auddenly and vio- tlon problem has . resulted Irt a manner

Comparing the loss of life by accidents
with the tonnage and production of the
j Pittsburg district, on life ha been snuffed
out tor every to.ooa ton or coal that la
shipped, and the annual shipment Is about
60.000,000 . tons. ' For every S.800 cara that

A patented cooking fork 1 designed for
turning and lifting large pieces of meat
during tha process of oooktng. Th fork
consists of th usual handle, with a tuba,
or sleeve fitted therein, th tine mounted
on th outer end of th tube, and a red
passing through the tub and handle and
carrying at one and th spiral screw, and
th other end secured by a nut to cause th
crew to revolve with th handla. '
In Operation th ' tine ' ar driven Into
the meat to th proper distance, and th
handla I then turned to caus tha spiral
crew to engage of twist Into tha meet,
giving a firm and reliable connection be
tween th fork and. th meat, and permrt
tirux th removal of th meat bodily with
out danger of epllltng or detachment of th
meat from th fork; and to. remov th
fork It I simply necary to relaaa th
crew by turning the handle In the revers
direction, which permits th withdrawal of
th fork.
Th advantage of ' th fork will be
readily apparent,, and it will be noticed
that a piece of meat of a fowl of any also
can be bandied with great eas without
fear of tearing th meat or of dropping th
