Well. I coReede that lawyers are not

they might be. nor as ambitious 10 save the

instance I recall this term or Last when
a Judge has made anything like a real de-
nand for economy Of time. and that came
after the contest had been so Ions IN court
that the present generation could scarcely
remember its beginning. I think that at
torneys have found In the general attitude
o. judges encouragement rather than els

have found that almost any kind Ct en- eX-

they have dritted into the habit Of doing

Then. too. / may set up the claim that
there is less demand for celebrity Of action

upon q court. When q lawyer sacrifices his
time by delaying matters be 81 spending
his own money, in efsct. When q Judge
allows delays he spends the peoples

salaries Of those about him. Frequently ]
have seen squads Of jurors sitting around
the corridors drawing 8. per day for hold

there is a stenogrspher for each Judge. and
