much at once, was the reply, but the

large well regulated establishments
where all departments of work are

Mrs. Stewart Hartshorn of Short
Hills, N. j., who Is the president of
the state federation OF that state, Is al
so the president OF the New Jersey Le-
gal Aid association, which has been In
existence about two years. Its object,
like that OF other OF these associations,
is TO assist persons unable to pay cOun-
sci fees, but needing legal aid. In its
recent annual report the record Of 5i5
applications is set down, the list OF APP
plicants including both men and wo-
men. Every application is carefully
investigated, and aid is never given TO
a person proved able to pay lawyer.
The object Is limited strictly to cases
where injustice might be suffered
through lack OF money for counsel fees.
The attorney OF the association Is Miss
Mary Phllbrook. and the chairman OF
the law committee, Mrs. Emily Il. VIII
Hanson OF Elizabeth. The annual
members pay 81 each year. the dues
Of the life members and contributing
members being correspondingly low.
Applicants for aid pay nominal fee
Of 70 cents, and where any moneys col
lected exceed $40, a 10 per cent COM
mission is charged which goes into the
association funds. Many prominent club
women are Identified with the organiza-
ton, among them Mrs. II. b. Taylor of
Newark. Miss Bradford and Mrs. Brice
Collard Of Jersey city, the latter Vice
president and DIR, Mary Hussey OF
