exemption from the minimum wage, overtime pay, and child labor 
provisions of the Act for certain homeworkers employed in making wreaths 
from evergreens and in harvesting evergreens and other forest products 
for use in making wreaths. Attention is directed to the fact that a 
limited overtime exemption for employees employed in the decoration 
greens industry is provided under section 7(c) of the Act (see part 526
