When Debtors Were Imprisoned.

In nearly every country, until COM
paratively recent times, debtors have
been subject to imprisonment After
the panic Of 1926, one hundred and one
thousand writs for debt were issued in
England In 1880, seven thousand per-
sons were sent to London prisons for
debt, and on January 1, 1910, seventeen
hundred persons were held for debt in
England and Wales, one thousand in
Ireland, and less than one hundred in
Scotland. From time to time modifi-
cations in the laws governing the i'm
prisonment of debtors have been made.
so that fewer debtors are imprisoned
for this crime each year.
In 1929 there were three thousand
debtors in prison in Massachusetts. ten
thousand in New York, seven thousand
in Pennsylvania, three thousand in
Maryland, and like proportion in
other States. Many Of these persons
were Jailed for debts of one dollar. The
law providing for the Imprisonment of
men who could not pay their debts vas
shown to be impracticable by statistics
taken from Philadelphia, where in 1923
there we're one thousand and eighty
five debtors imprisoned for debts
amounting to twenty-five thousand dol
lars. The expense of keeping these
persons in confinement was three hun
dred and sixty-two thousand dollars.
which was paid by the city, and the
amount recovered by this method was
two hundred and ninety-five dollars.
Imprisonment for debt was abolished
by Congress in the United States in
1888, though this measure was not fully
enforced until 1889.

Wife desertion Is a cowardly thing
and deserves punishment, but it is to
be doubted whether putting the wife
deserter in the penitentiary, as is sug-
gested, would not make the lot of the
wife harder than ever. So long as a
man is at liberty there is a chance of
making him support his wife, but If
he is in the penitentiary that chance
vanishes. OF course, the putting Of a
few recreant husbands in prison might
exercise 4 salutary effect upon the 9th
ers, but that remains to be demonstrate
ed. The problem IS to compel men to
support the women to whom they are
married. Putting them in a position
where they have no earning capacity
will hardly accomplish the desired end

The principle of old-age pensions has
been fully accepted by the present Lib
eral government of Great Britain. The
Chancellor of the EXchequer, in his
budget speech last month, 'earmarked'
a million and a half pounds of next
years surplus as the nucleus of a fund
for the purpose. 1t is estimated that
not less than ten million pounds will be
required annually for a comprehensive
old-age pension fund. The plan which
will probably be adopted in Great Brit
ain differs radically from the systems in
France and in Germany. In Germany
both the laboring man and the employ
er are required to contribute a certain
sum every year to an insurance fund.
If the laborer falls i'll he receives a
comes old an annuity is paid to him.
Although the government supplements
the fund thus raised, the system was
originally one of mutual insurance
against sickness and against need in
old age. The French old-age pension
law, passed last year, is based on that
IN force in Germany. The Liberal cab
met, following the lead of the British
experts on poor relief, has rejected the
compulsory insurance form of old-age
relief, and has adopted the principle Of
the laws of New Zealand. In that col
ony no contributions are required from
working men, but an annual appropria-
ton Is made by the government, out of
which pension Of ninety dollars a
year is paid to every worker who has
passed the age of IS and has lived in
the colony twenty-five years. The New
Zealand plan is appealing forcib1y to
the advocates Of the pension system in
other countries, for in Germany the
abolition Of the payment of premiums
for the insurance is urged, and it is
demanded that the government endow
old age itself rather than strive to en-
courage men in their vigor to insure
against poverty in their declining years.
The spread of the old-age pension idea
Is most startling proof of the growing
acceptance by governments of the once
ridiculed theory that the state owes
every man a living.

Vau1tfng and Putting the Shot.
Mildred Villas, 'O7 of Cleveland, O.,
and Inez Milholland, '09, two Of the
most popular students, established new
athletic records at Vassar Saturday,
says the New York World. Miss Villas
made a fence vault Of 4 feet 1OA inch
es. The previous record was feet 1917
inches, made by D. E. Merrill, 'O2, in
1901.
Miss Milholland, a beautiful English
girl, who is taking a course at Vassar
in preparation for Woman's suffrage
work in England and who is regarded
as one of the strongest women ever at
the college, put the eight-pound shot 81
feet SA inches, breaking the record of
20 feet 11h inches, made by e. II.
White in 1902.
The surprise of the day was the poor
showing of the two present students
who hold championships, Alice H. Bel
ding, 'O7, holder of two records, feet
6 inches in standing broad jump and
1876 feet inches in baseball throwing,
and Martha Gardner, 'O7, holder of
10O-yard hurdle record, 16 1-3 seconds,
and running broad jump, IA feet 61a
inches. Neither champion was able to
equal her record, while in the hurdle
race and baseball throwing they were
surpassed by sophomores and fresh
men.
The sopnomores won the honors of
the day, exceeding their own best ex-
pectations with 43 points. When it was
announced that 1907 had won % points
a mighty shout of "skidoo" went UP
from the side lines where the sophie
mores were cheering their successful
athletes; 1910, won 20 points and 1908
got 10.

When Prince Fushimi, the cousin Of
the Emperor of Japan, visited English
waters with small fleet, the British
naval bands on one occasion of vel
come played selections from the comic
opera, The Mikado." Upon learning
the fact, the Admiralty, with equal
tactlessness, issued orders, and made
them public, that the bands must not
do so any more. But the japanese, who
politely protested that they were not
at all disturbed by the matter, since
they quite understood the humor of the
opera, may avail themselves of a de-
lightful revenge. When next a British
fleet visits the Mikado's waters the
Japanese bands can greet them with
airs from "Pinafore."

value. They make the life Of the farm
less narrow and monotonous: they slim
ulate thought and introduce an element
Of recreation and pleasure. It seems
that the idea was borrowed from Can
ada, where women's Institutes have
been in successful operation for eight
years and now claim a membership OF
more than 10000. The topics at these
Institutes relate to the home life of
the farm, to domestic science, food,
sanitation, decoration, and so on. The
state department of agriculture has
done something to promote these farm
ers' wives meetings, but the initiative
and inspiration came from leading wo-
men of the clubs and reading circles Of
the Dominion. Give the farmers wife
and daughter a chance.

1t is small wonder, then, that with any

proportion Of the active medicinal

this the fact that, in general terms,

depends on the amount Of sunshine it
enjoys, on the time of the year it is
gathered, even on the time of the day,
on the amount of moisture. the eleva-
ton, the character of the soil, and
dozen other factors, it becomes almost
a necessity of thought that the amount
of medicine in that plant must vary
from a maximum to nothing at all.

The New York Assembly has ap-
proved a very interesting idea that
promises to become popular, especially
in agricultural states. 1t has passed
a supply bill containing an appropria-
ton of $1,000 for an extension of the
excellent work of farmers institutes
to the feminine members Of the rural
households. The item has been put into
the bill for the express purpose of es-
tablishing separate institutes for farm
ers' wives and daughters. The idea is
of course very simple. If the farmer
can learn a good deal about his work
and his economy from the discussions
and exchanges of experiences at the in
stitutes, why should not similar meet
ings be held for the women of the
farms? Isn't the work of the latter
Of real and recognized Importance?
