Mr.Guye Objects to
Unaugo in ijauor Law
Asueii by leacuers
"Ordinarily, pubho officials are called
upon to take aidt upon social ana
economic questions coming within the
scope of their official duties,- says
Deputy Labor Commibsloner Ouye, "ut
in so doing one cannot be expected to of
ficiate without strong opposition, for the
ruaaon thai you will not appear right to
any If you do not soern wrong to many.
1 am no exception to this rule, and am
therefore called upon to resist the pro
posed action of the Nebraska Htaia Teach
ers association, wherein tiial organisa
tion preys for a change In the present
culld labor law of this stale.
At tha recent annual meeting of the
NebiaKka mate Teachers' association It
passed the following revolution:
We believe that the provisions of our
prevent child labor law, which torbiiu
any child under the age of 14 yeaus from
working al gainlul occupation during
.he nine when the schools are not In ses
sion, IS baneiul in lis effect, because It
luikea the chl.u, during vauai.oi., to a
ilte of ldiiiitBS on the streets and in the
alley.
'vihlle I do not for one moment ques
tion the motlvee prompting this action on
tha part of our teachers, yet 1 do ques
tion the advlnabllity of such a change In
our present law. The child during vaca
tion periods is a problem, dui ma ciuia
below the age of 14 years la not as great
problem during those periods of idle
ness aa those above this agV The mother
can more readily keep tab on those bolow
14 than those above, and the bad associa
tions will be of greater damage to those
above than to those bulow. P.y all means
give the Jobs to those above the ages
of 14 years and under no circumstances
permit a change In the present law.
"Were I simply to criticise, confess that
the Idle child Is a problem without offer
ing a remedy, would be exceedingly un
fair to those crltlulxed and to myself as
well. Hence I submit to the Nebraska
State Teachers' annotation what I con
sider a proper remedy for the 'life and
Idleness on the street and In the alley'
for our children under the age of 14 years.
I propose that we secure all the Idle, va
cant or unoccupied town or city lots.
That we organise the children below the
age of 14 years Into clubs for the pur
pose of planting and cultivating such
lots. That prizes be given in addition to
the entire results of the labors of tboBc
children. That the teachers, aldod by
the mothers, superintend and direct their
eforts."
Women Guests of

Invitations are out for a dinner to be
given at the Rome on the evening of
December 11 by the Palimpsest club In
honor of Alfred Tennyson Dickens, on

Contrary to the usual custom of the club,

OYSTER PURITY HELPED
BY USE OF SEALED CANS
There la probably no food product on
the market toduy that needs as much
care In handling and a much attention
tn ua hvirtenta condition a the oyster.
Yet vast sums of money have been spent
on different advertlalnb scheme for the
marketing of this product In various
ways that have not wholly satisfied the
discriminating housewife from a sanitary
standpoint.
As tho Ladles' Home Journal of Sep
tember S. remarked: "The certified
oyster la bound to come sooner or later,
The great danger under existing method
seems to be curc!esanea on the part of
the dealer In not keeping the display
cases or containers In a sanitary oondl
tion and the fact that no matter what
care le ued In the shipment of oysters,
the unscrupulous dealer still ha the
! ))., r. t m.rinir tits slocle flltn
K ' . " . . .
oaca upon any oiner niouo ui auuuers
tton. It seems, therefore, that ultimately
the oyster must reach the consumer un
der an Individual teal to guarantee per
fection," This takes the handling of oysters back
to Its original starting point as no doubt
every one remembers the days In which
they secured their oyster supply only In
the small square cans. Firms who have
spent vast sums of money In the adver
tlslng of the solid packed oysters are
realising that the oyster must be sold In
original container guaranteed to the
cousuiner to give the satisfaction de
manded by the average American house
wife In thl age of pure food lawa The
United States has rules In several very
Important features In the oyster Industry.
Out the fact remains that contamination
and adulteration can be elmlnaled only
by the guarantee of some reputable firm
that the oyster that enters the kitchen
is packed in a sterilised hyglenlo recep
tacle sealed by them, to be opened by the
customer and with the Interference of nw
middle bias.

When the eighth annuat convention of
the Nebraska and Iowa Hotel Clerks' as
sociation begins in Omaha Tuesday It will
be the means of bringing a large number
of delegates here, but it will be one of
the moot Important meetings ever held b
the organization, for a number of toplca
of vital interest to hotel men will come
up for dlocUsMun.
Among these topics remedies for the
tipping nuisance will be suggested, meth
ods of handling professional hotel crooks
and other dishonest persons will be talked
over, and schemes for the co-operation
of clerks for their mutual welfare will
be proposed. Uesldes the business ses
sions that have been arranged for an
unusually good program of amusement
has been prepared.
Omaha Is the headquarter for the. Ne
braska and Iowa Hotel Clerks' associa
tion, and almost all of the officers are
connected with local hotels. For this
reason, as well as for the reason that
tnls city affords better opportunities foi
conventions than any other place In either
state, Omaha has boen made tue perma
nent convention city of the organisation.
The association was first organised in
V.KH. when five chief clerks -of Omaha
hotels answered a call from Colonel Wil
liam Anderson of the Rome. Mr. Ander
son was made president, F. B. Pates
secretary ahd Joe Keenan treaaurer. It
was one of the first hotel men's associa
tions In the United States, and Its mem
bership grew by leaps .and bounds. To
day 20 names are Inscribed on the roster
and the secretary has the names of sev
eral score of applicants.
The present officers of the association
are: President, Charles W. Miller, Hotel
Loyal, Omaha; first vice president, Jo
seph McCaffery, SchllU hotel, Omaha,
second vice president, J. P. McLarty,
Went hotel, Bloux City; third vice presi
dent, J. W. Dauchy, Ixigan hotel, Water
loo. Ia.; secretary, Arthur W. Gird, asso
ciate editor Mid-West Hotel Reporter,
Omaha; treasurer, M. IL Castle, I lor
Orand hotel, Omaha; board of directors,
C. O. Btockman of Omaha, Howard l)e
laney of Omaha, J. D. 8eater of Fort
Lodge, la.; F. J. Walton of Lincoln.
The purposes of the organization are
to promote efficiency among the clerks,
to Bee that the efflnjent member secure
good positions, to see that the hotel get
goou clerks, to discourage thieves who
prey upon hotel and to bring all reput
able clerks tosrether for the promotion
or good fellowship. Throifch the efforts
of the present secretary, A. W. Gird, the
association ha reached the prominence
(t has, and now it 1 One of the strongest
hotel men' association In the United
State. It 1 affiliated with the Greeters
of America and the Nebraska and Iowa
association held the first charter Issued
by the Oreoters. It also holds the first
membership card.
