South Carolina Mills Show Low Child Labor Numbers
A Chattanooga Tradesman representative surveyed South Carolina mills and found few children under 12 employed. Figures from Victor Manufacturing, Saxon mills, Langley, Piedmont, Pelzer and Belton, Brandon, Monaghan, Goldville and Arcade mills show scattered under-12 workers, with most factories running school programs nine months or more. The piece argues northern exaggeration and says no new state legislation is needed as mills already limit child labor.

President Roosevelt’s pistol feat stuns Oyster Bay crowd
A Chicago Record-Herald special reports President Roosevelt and party engaged in a pistol shoot at 50 yards near Oyster Bay. The president fired five shots into one hole, earning praise from Commandant Snyman and rival Jon Reitz. Snyman’s attempt with the same gun missed by inches. Roosevelt’s rifle shots also scored bulls eyes. The scene shifts to Philippine coin designs and a Manila mint, with plans for a 13 star design and future silver and gold coinage under war department oversight.
