There is said to be a lawyer in Phil

voice to which a certain measure Of his
success in United States Supreme court
practice is due. The trick consists in
waking Judge. Whether it is COM
mon practice for the high dfgnitaries
Of the federal supreme bench to in
Su}ee in a nap in the course Of long
and tedious argument, such happen
tngs are not unknown, and 1t Is We'll
for an able logician of the bar to be
prepared for it. The trick of waking
sleepy Judge would seem to be some
thing in the nature of slamming law
book under his nose or connecting his
personality with the current OF an
electric battery. But the trick is ex-
planned as purely a matter Of sound
involved in the skil1ful control OF the
voice. 1t is said that barrister prac-
ticed in the art and rhetoric OF address,
ing the bench can gather all the waves
Of sound from his throat into a focus
and deposit it in the orifice Of the
Judges ear with the general effect Of
bomb. The trick. however it is &C
complished, is said to have been worked
repeatedly with success on the late
Judge McKennan, whose habit Of going

It has been said of the recent local
lectures on the law, medicine and jour
naliSm as professions for young men
and women that the speakers dispar-
aged their respective calhngs, or rather
made it appear that success was diff
cult But is that not true? OF the
great numbers who engage in the vari-
Gus professions, or in trade, how many
attain eminence or riches? And with
the spirit we see manifested too often
for the future good of the country it
looks as though the number of success
full ones might be less in the future than
in the past. The general desire is for
short cuts to learning or wealth. 1t is
difficult to find young man or woman
who is willing to serve a full apprentice
ship, or to give, save grudgingly, to an
employer more time and attention than
they consider they are paid for. But
this is divergence from the matter we
started to consider. Last week S issue
of the Philadelphia Saturday Evening
Post contained an article by George
AIDE, author of Fables in Slang" on
college Men and Newspaper Work.
1t is of interest at this time from the
fact that he does not recommend news.
paper work as a permanent employ
ment, but rather as a training school.
He says;
IL conclusion it might be said to the
college man who is drawn toward news
paper work: If you teel a genuine
craving for the fascinating toll go into
it-only when you have become a sue
cessful reporter and more or less defer
ence is paid to you, and when over-en-
thusiastic friends try to spoil you by
saying you are a genius" do not sit
down and be content with the thought
that you have arrived, for you have
not. You are simply ON your way.
Keep cool and discount the flattery, and
remember that nothing is more dead
and cold than yesterdays newspaper.
Along in the thirties, if some one
comes along and tries to steal you away
from the newspaper office, don't resist.
