IN ACTIVE PRACTICE At %.
William Cookson Carpenter the Oldes,
Lawyer at the Bar In This City.

William Cookson Carpenter the Oldest
Lawyer Mt the Bar In This City.
About the Court House there often seen
two members of tho bar of this city who are
still In active practice although they have at
tanned q green old age. These two men and
many other members Of the bar who are close
TO or beyond the seventh decade would give the
idea that the practice of the law tends to foster
longevity or that it has not the septic influences
which may tend to shorten life in some other
walks Of o busy world.
There is age limit, seventy years. for tho
Judges. but there 10 no limit as to age for the
members OF tho bar. So that while now and
then Judge is Obliged to leave the bench when
his wisdom has been ripened by seventy years
of experience there are members of the bar
practising away beyond that limit. the law
seems to be vocation TO which men usually
cling to the end. In many other calings men
plan to retire whom they have made their pile.
but among the mon who have retired from ac-
tive business few lawyers are found. When
q member of tho bar does not feel
like digging along in the active busi-
ness Of an attorney he often devotes
himself solely to counsel work or delegates
the ectiye attorney work to clerks or attorneys
whom he employs. The value of the opinion of
. lawyer who has kept at work is, as a rule. con-
sidered to increase with his years. Dickens
speaks OF a promising young lawyer of 40 years.
indicating the length of the study OF the science
With the modern codes. digests. and countless
other reference BOOKS, there has been a great
shortening of the time in which proficiency
could formerly be attained. but there is etiil a
mark ed demand for old heads
The oldest man at the bar of this city Is Will
liam Cook son arpenter. who As 93 years of age
on July 80 last. He was in the County Court
House last week on case. His eyes are bright
and shrewd. and he might easily pass for 20. He
was born In New Brunswick. and has been in
practice in this city for sixty years.
The other old member OF the bar referred to IL
ex. Recorder James NJ. Smith. Mr.. Smith has
been engaged in the most difficult cases in the
higher courts all his life. and has always been
considered one Of the most careful men In the
preparation OF q case and one of the beat men
before Judge or jury at the bar He is large and
tai and walks still with firm step He has
tried several cases ip the last two years. but has
He is reticent about his age but It must be
close on to 30. Lawyer Carpenter said TO the
writer that the ex-Recorder. while not stating
his age: had told him that he outdid him. and
was In fact the oldest lawyer at the bar Law
yer Carpenter added with conscious pride that
he was sure that Mr. Smiths claim TO be the
oldest at the bar could not be sustained. 1t
may be that Mr. Smith was only trying to take

NOTES OF THE JEWS,

Certain Jews in Bombay recently asked tho Brit

Jew ought 10 be proud.

ED. ENTERPRISE Allow me space in
your valuable paper to reply briefly to
an article under the date Of August 5,
and signed Kindergarten" The Teach
ers, Club, of Chicago is given as authM
ity for the great value of kindergarten
work. AS for myself l am not willing
that Chicago, New York or Boston shall
govern Wellington. What may be en-
tirely practical in the above named cities
would seem absurd in town Of this
size, with comfortable homes, abun-
dance OF shade, green grass and plentyof
fresh air. II seems to me that the
place for the babies clad in gingham
aprons and sunhats is in the yard with a
sand pile, shovels, and rakes,
and let them run and rOmp and grow fat,
and when they get into school they will
have strength and muscle enough tocarry
them through without being confirmed
invalids at sixteen or eighteen years of
age. kindergarten has a well written
fiowery article bat is mostly theory.
Give us something practical. II our laws
are to be changed, instead of suppling
klndergartens for the babies two and
three years of age, as contemplated by
sone, let the present laws be amended
that the children may not attend school
until they are seven or eight years of
age. Now that this matter is up for dit :
cussion, let us hear from sOme of the
parents on this important subject.

scIssoREo.

Supt, Daley, Of the Northwestern Ohio
Natural Gas Co., was in the city, Wednes-
day to investigate the matter Of a gas
supply for next winter. He is of the
opinion that there will not be enough to
go around, and as Norwalk is the farth-
est from the field, Of course we will be
the first to go, OF course this is not
certain and is not the intention Of the
gas company to close us off unless it be-
comes a necessity.
