With four divisions of the State conservation department preparing exhibits for the Indiana State failnext week, persons interested in the subject of conservation will enjoy a real treat when the opening day of the fair, Sept. 7, rolls around. Exhibits by the fish and game, entomology-, forestry and geology divisions are being made ready for the fair, according to Richard Eieber, department director. Will Display Fish The fish and game division will display in glass tanks every species of game fish native to Indiana waters, using fifty-two tanks for this purpose. One of the features of this display will be young fish of this seaso 's hatch, showing how rapidly they levelop In a few months' time. Coi.servation officials, point out that by displaying native fish, the public becomes familiar with the various species and often is enabled to observe the closed season on certain game species which might be unconsciously violated. Last year more than 3,000 persons an hour passed through the building on the best attendance days. The .entomology exhibit in the south wing of the Horticultural Bldg, this year will adjoin the display of the State beekeepers’ association. Stress will be made on plant diseases and destructive insect pests. Coal To Be Shown The geology division will make its exhibit in connection with the department of geology of Indiana University, in the Indiana Bldg., and will exhibit ttye various grades of Indiana domestic and industrial coals, shale oils and clays for brick, tile and pottery.-The forestry division In its own building will display native hardwoods, show how idle and waste lands should be planted to forests, and in general demonstrate that practical forestry and the farm woodlot should be universal throughout Indiana.

Child Labor Condition Studied By Mother Jones Terrible Life of Little Ones in Southern Mills Is Disclosed By Her Work.

Leaving the coal field*. Mother Jones took part in a strike ot machinists on the Southern Patalic Railroad, and later in strikes of railway workers and minus m Alabama. .these conflict* grew out of the American Railway Union movement led by Eugene Debs. From Birmingham Mother Jones went to seveial southern e-otton mid centers, where she found children toilinx at the spindles lor meayer pa.v. One night she helped a widowed mother aim three children escape from a mill colony, win re they were in •'thralldom." (This is the eighth of Mother Jones' articles.) By Mother Jones (Published by permission of Chat-let. H. Kerr & Cos., Chicago. Copyright. 1925.) mHAVE always advised men to read. All my life I have told them to study the works of those great authors who have been interested in making this world a happier place for those tvho do its drudgery. When there were no strikes, I held educational meetings and after the meetings I would sell the book, “Merrie England,” which told in simple Sashion of the workers’ struggle for a more abundant life. “Boys," I would say, “listen to me. Instead of going to the pool and gambling rooms, go up to the mountain and read a book. Sit under a tree, listen to the birds, and take a lesson from those little feathered creatures who do not exploit oneanother, nor betray one another, nor put their own little ones to work digging worms before their time. You will hear them sing while they work. The best you can do is and smoke.” \ Turns to Near 1 Fields I was gone from the eastern cool fields for eight years. Meanwhile I was busy, waging the old struggle in various fields. I went* west £nd took part in the strike of the machinists of the Southern Pacific Railroad. Then I went to Alabama. In 1904 and ’OS there were great strikes in and a'round Birmingham. The workeis of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad were on strike. The miners struck in sympathy. These widespread strikes were part of the American Railway Union strike led by Eugene Debs, a railway worker. The militia was called out. There was a long-drawn-oufc fight. I was forbidden to leave town without permit. forbidden to hold meetings. Nevertheless I slipped through the

lines of the soldiers without their knowing who I was—just an old woman going to a missionary meeting to knit mittens for the heathen of Africa! Debs Is Jailed The strike dragged on. Debs was put in jail. The leaders were prosecuted. At laet the strike .was called off. 1 went down to Cottondale to get a job In the cotton mills. I wanted to see for myself if the grewsome stories of little children working In the mills were true. I applied for a job but the manager told me he had nothing for me unless I had a family that would work also. I told the manager I was going to move my family to Cottondale but I had come on ahead to see what chances there were for getting work “Have you children?” “Yes. there are six of us." “Fine,” he said. He was so enthusiastic that he went with me to find a house to rent* “Fine Home” “Here’s a house that will do plenty.” said be- The house he brought me to was a sort of twostory plank shanty. The windows were broken and the door sagged open. Its latch was broken. It had one room down stairs and unfinished loft upstairs. “I don’t know that this house Is big enough for six of us,” I said. “Not big enough?” he stared at me. "What you all want, a hotel?” - I took the house, promising to send for my family by the end of the month. I was given work In factory, and there I saw little children working, the most heart-rending spectacle in all life. Sometimes it seemed to me I could not look at those silent little figures, that I must go north, to the grim coal fields, to the Rocky Mountain camps, where the labor fight at least is fought by grown men. “Gray Children” At 5:30 in the morning,, long lines of little gray children came out of the early #iwn into the factory. Into the maddening noise, into the lint'

filled rooms. At the lunch half-hour, the children wojuld fall asleep over their lunch of cornbread and fat pork. They would lie on the bare floor and sleep. Sleep was their recreation, their release, as play is to the free child. “My six children” not arriving, the manager got suspicious of me so I left Cottondale and went to Tuscaloosa, where I got work In a rope factory. A father of two little girls worked a loom next to the one assigned to me. “How old aret he little girls?” I asked him.. “One Is 6 years and 10 days,” he said, "the other 7 and 3 months.” Work All Night “How long do they work?” "From 6 In the evening till 6 come morning.” “How much do they get?” “Ten cents a night,” I went from Tuscaloosa to Selma, Ala., and got a job In a mill. I did not stay long dn one place. I left Alabama for South Carolina, working in many mills. From the South, burdened with the terrible things I had seen, I came to New York and held several meetings to make known conditions as I had found them. In one mill town where I worked, I became acquainted with a mother and her three little children, all of whom worked In the mill with me. The father had died of tuberculosis and the family had run up a debt of S3O for his funeral. Year In and year out they toiled to pay back to the company store the Indebtedness. But after food and rent were deducted from the scanty wages, nothing remained. They were in thralldom to the mill. s Rescued Debt * I determined to rescue them. I hired a wagon from a farmer. I bought a can of grease to grease the axles to stop their creaking. In the darkness of night, the little family and I drove to the station. We felt I like escaping negro slaves, and expected any moment that bloodhounds would be on (far trail. The children shivered and whimpered. Down the dark tracks came the train. It slowed down. I lifted the two littlest children onto the platform. The mother and the oldest climbed on. Away we sped, away from the everlasting debt, away to anew town where they could start anew without the millstone about theiT necks. NEXT: Mother Jones yanks a governor’s coat-tails.
