          Amends the Child Labor Law.  Provides that the  Law  does

      program organized and supervised by a park  district  with  a
      population  of less than 500,000.  Prohibits a minor under 16

      working  hours  of  minors  over  14 who are employed by park
      districts or municipal parks and recreation departments.
