quirement that all child workers under sixteen
shall attend a part-time day school. Other states
meanwhile, are wondering if they can establish
the eight hour day, and definite campaigns for
this end are on in Arkansas, California, New

and elsewhere.
The Committee points out that the bills which

Delaware and Texas all include the regulation of

New York, under recommendation of the State
Factory Investigating Commission, is considering
bills not only to prohibit child labor in-canneries

In many states, minimum wage boards, pen-
sions for widowed mothers, prohibition of night
work and methods of determining age of children
seeking employment are under discussion. New

probably raise the age limit for working children
from 12 to 14 years, and it is hoped that a child

The most marvelous piece of work is the hu-
man Face. Strange that out of all the billions
of Faces made since Time got to going, no two
Faces were ever exactly alike. Strange, too, that
no one Face long remains the same.
Make something of YOUR Face.
The Face is the Key to Character. As surely
and positively ’as does the hand guided by the
orders of the Brain clear wide wastes, build great
cities, and cut into life-like figures from bare rocks,
the story of men’s achievements, so does the Brain
and Thought of a man carve and fashion daily the
secret workings of a man’s Ideals and Purposes
into the Lines and Hanes of his own Face.
Make something of YOUR Face.
There ie one thing a man cannot hide from—
his own Face! Where the Man goes the Face
must go. How tremendous the responsibility, then,
of making your Face a good Companion, a faith-
ful Servant, an active Force, an interesting Study
—a Face worth remembering.
Make something of YOUR Face.
A Face never lies. It may be a Comic Picture,
o Comedy of Errors, a chiseled piece of Power, or
a wrecked god—-but it is no lie. If you would know
a man, study the history of his Face.
Make something of YOUR Face.
No one could get a hearing from a library
of malicious tales about Lincoln. His wonderful
Face would contradict it all. To learn what man-
ner of person a man is, study his Face. It is all
there. Pope said that the proper study of mankind
was man. But he meant his Face. Be not so fool-
ish as to try to "hop bail" on your own Face. You
can't. Better start associating more with it. It is your
largest asset, for no man can take it from you.
Realize now, then, that the most important job
for you each day is to— .
Make SOMETHING of your Face.
