From tho time the public schools opened in September up until the time work was suspended yesterday the cost per pupil per month has been f 1.16 2-3. This represents run ning expenses of the schools only, and docs not tske in interest on bonds, Interest on investment or anything ot that nature.

The record made by tho Anderson schools is sll the moro remarkable when lt ls taken into consideration ' that" there are almost three times as i many white children as colored child ren In the public sohools, as it is generally understood that the cost of neb co! lng white children ls somewhat tn excess of that for schooling the colored children.

FOURTEEN YEARS LIMIT IN VIEW CHILD LABOR? {COMMITTEE WOULD CHANGE LAW. i CHAIRMAN QUOTED Joseph McCullough of Greenville ? Discusses Effect on Cotton Mills- of SUte. Following is a statement issued Tuesday by the national child labor < committee from its office In New York ' city: I "There are p'x States in the Union which have nc 14-yesr limit for fac tories and South Carolina Is one ' of them. Joseph A. McCullough of Green- ? ville, who has called a conference on December 29 for the discussion of child labor snd compulsory education legislation, hopes thst this next year will see South Carolina peas from the. side of the smell minority over to tho Side of the large majority by prohibit ing tho employment of children under ii. . "The textile interest will no doubt, opposo it this year, as It did last year, ' unless accompanied by a compulsory . education law, on the ground that the 1 Industry needs 12-year-old children to! compete with the textile Industries of North Carolina, Alabama and Missis-; slppl, and upon Cse .further * ground that to turn th? children out of the mills will create an Idle class in the community. The children are requir ed to attend school. "Mr. McCullough does not concur in the idea ,that a 14-year limit for chil di on will be a. death blow to industry, 'Fo.-ty-two States out of 48 States have accepted the 14-year standard, and there ls no use srgulng that it is not penectly sound. Factories do not fall or mo^ to other States because or restrictions placed on the employment of children. Manufacture;^ like to talk j about lt. but lt doesn't really happen. Adjustment to new requirements quickly takes place, and after a short tims Ute employer discovers that his older workers are more efficient than the 12-year-old children he formerly] employed and thst his increase in out put exceeds his wsge Increase. " 'I heard .recently of two mills In a town In Alabama, discovered hy the rational child labor committee, which shows what can be done whon a man ufacturer refuses to employ young children. One mill employs no chil dren under 14, ls well equipped, run ning full time sud makins iitoney. The other employs 12-year-old children, is poorly equipped and can not otford to run more than half the time. You will say tatt this ls due to better manage ment, not to the fact that children ere I hot employed! ThatkA lust tho poliit. Good management Venuses that otu Dloiment of children means waste RP? inefficiency, and in some "cases refuses lo employ them. .Poor management sees only that children ara apparent ly cheaper, but lt I?, criminal to .humor noor management af the cost of chil dren's physical, mental and n?r?val de velonment' "Mr. McCullough hopea, however, that in view of the fact that, a rora-! pulso ry education bill will be equally, stressed slope with the ehild labor bil), the textile industry of tbs SUte; will throw 1U influence In favor of j the passsge ot both measures."

But in tho execution of this privilege they must have a care, for there are cer tain regulations in tho city ordinance which govern the places where these thlngB may be shot, exploded, burnt or set off. Nothing shall be fired within 200 feet of a cotton platform or other rdace where cotton ls stored. Bonfires will not be allowed on any -of the pav ing, and permission to build bon fires must be obtained from the chief of police.
