BABIES LEARN THE

ments in the psychology of the Orang-

the world to revise its method of rails
ing children, according to Prof. John
B. Watson. the noted biologist Of
Johns Hopkins university, Baltimore.
In a lecture at the University of Chi.
cago he advanced the theory that ba.
bise learn much in the same manner
that animals learn-more through
fear of punishment than hope of re-
ward. He said that experiments had
been made with white mice and that
he had rewarded the mich which
learned rapidly and punished those
which did not. with excellent results
The mice soon learned to do as he
told them.

IN CIRCUIT COURT
Judge Fox Kept Busy Hear
ing Tales of Woe of Un-
happy Couples.

Lena n. Bittner, in relating to Judge
Fox her martial experiences with
Charles r. Bittner, said that but for
her parents she and her husband
would have had a much harder time
than they did, which was a sorry
enough experience, as it was told. The
court granted her petition for divorce
and custody of the only child, also de-
creeing that the father should contri-
butte to the childs support and have
the privilege of visiting it whenever
it was suitable. Failure to make prop
er provision was the ground for the
action. They separated in March.
The complainant was unable to pay
bills which accumulated and her pa
rents came to their rescue, furnish.

necessaries, she testified.

Judge Fox holding the contentious had
not been sufficiently proven to warrant

Committee on Law Reform
and Jurisprudence of State
Bar Association Takes I'M
portant Step. :
ISHIVELEY A MEMBER
OF THIS COMMITTEE
This Compensation Bill, if
Approved by State Bar As
sociation, Will Go to Next
Legislature.

Important legislation, now in a for
mulatiye stage. which if enacted. will
go long way in making the relations
ly, was on Friday considered by the
committee on law reform and jurispru-
dence at its meeting in Indianapolis.
The committee is made UP of fifteen
of the leading attorneys of the state,
including Charles E. Shiveley. of this
city. John T. Dye, one of the ablest
attorneys in Indianapolis, and who has
brought suit to test the Marshall con-
stitution in the Marion courts, is
chairman of the committee.
BY the plan of the committee. which
will be presented for ratification at
the meeting of the state bar associa.
tion at Winona on July 10-11, it is pro-
posed that the legislature at its next
session enact law, which will insure
employees proper compensation for in
juries received in the pursuit of their
vocation. This scheme is now in vo.
que in Switzerland and has proven
most satisfactory to all concerned.
1t is a we'll known fact that four out
of every five people who are injured
while following their duties are not
rewarded and those who do receive
damages have to pay heavy attorneys
fees, while the defeated litigant In
such cases has to pay attorneys fees
and the court costs. Altogether these
outside costs amount to considerable
depending on the length of trial and
amount involved.
The committee will recommend 9
scale for different injuries, the amour,
OF damage to be awarded correspond
ing with the seriousness of the injury
The proposal is that before man &C
cepts employment, he and the employ
er shall sign an agreement that in case
of accident, he shall be recompensed
properly. In cases OF awards of large
damages, the bar association commit
tee recommends that the judge of the
the injured man lives, shall have the
, authority to appoint a trustee who
shall invest the mans money. This
clause is included because it is toe
often the case that when man is in
jured and receives large damages, he
invests the money Improperly and con
sequently loses the benefit of the dam
ages received
| The recommendation of the commit
! tee, if accepted as it is, or even modi
| fed, by the state bar association, will
then be placed in the form of a bill
to be presented at the 1913 session oi
the state legislature. 1t is felt there
would be no difficulty in securing the
passage of the bill. should it have
| the support of the state board.
