Members of the state industrial acci dent commission report that many em ployers of Oregon apparently have no knowledge that a law was enacted at the last session of the legislature pro viding that children under the age of 18 years cannot be employed legally in hazardous occupations unless they shall have received a permit from the proper authorities.

We were curious to see what the so called educational films would be like, and were prepared for rather a tiresome hour of statistics graphically shown. But not at all. the film was a charming story of farm life well acted. The facts which the Bu reau were trying to bring out, were closely interwoven in the story, and struck home with greater force, than a pounding in of frets under the old wav could possibly have done. The surprise o f the afternoon, came at the close of the film, when County Agent Holt informed us that every actor in the cast, was a farmer, and that the scenes even carried us into the Chicago offices and warehouses of the Farm Bureau. More of these will De shown in the future. SPRINGWATER NEWS Mrs. A. M, Grable was called to Portland last Friday on ac count of the illness of Mr. Grable.
