KISSING THE BOOK
CUSTOM To Be
ABANDONED
SCOTCH OATH TO REPLACE OLD
PRACTICE, WHICH HAS BEEN
MUCH cRlTIcisEo-NoT LEGAL
~ REQUIRED.

LONDON, Jan. 21.-What will prob
ably prove It's deathblow has been
dealt to the practice known as
kissing the book commonly oh
served in English law courts. During
recent years many objections have
been raised 10 the system, The small
bible which every witness was asked
to kiss was often decidedly dirty, and
various suggestions have been made
whereby the practice could be dis
pensed with.
There Is apparently no legal sanction
for the practice which, however. is
consecrated by long custom. legal
encyclopedias says that tie habit or
kissing the book did not become rec
ognized until the middle of the sew
enteeith century and only became gen
eial In the latter part OF the eign-
teenth
Judge Parry, OF Manchester, a mag
istrate who cultivates literature and
the drama in his leisure moments, has
pointed out, however, that while II Is
true that there is very little direct
authority In any OF the ancient law
books which enables one to say what
the practice was, that is only because
old lawyers didn't consider kissing the
book essential TO the oath, and the
practice was so universally followed
that there was no need 10 describe IL.
Judge Parry quotes Shapespeare's
The Tempest" where Stephano says
I'll, 2, 1897 Here. kiss the book to
support his contention. and says
that the idea OF kissing the book was
as familiar TO a veteran playgoer at
the Globe theater in Shapespeare's day
as 1t Is to the modern freQuenter of
his majestys courts of justice.
why, them asks Judge Parry,
docs the twentieth century English
man kiss the book by way of assuring
his fellow-citizens that he is not 60

a dog walk around in circle before
II lies down on the hearth rug?" Nat.
ural history tells us that 1t Is be-
cause the wild dog of prehistoric days

est In that fashion. Both man and
dog are victims Of hereditary habits :"
Dearly as the English people cling
TO old customs. this hereditary habit
will now probably die out. Sir Goerell
Barnes, in the divorce court initiated
the new method by instructing. the
clerk OF the court 20 ask witnesses IL

fashion in which there is no kissing
