CRIME OF PERJURY.

ANY person who has attended court
knows how common is the crime of
perjury--and how seldom an attempt
Ii made to punish IT. Yet the statutes
regard perjury as very grave Of
Tense against society. Inasmuch as
the administration of justice depends
largely on testimony-the deliberate
subversion OF truth on sworn testi-
mony is an assault ON the vital part
OF our system OF Justice. The court
is quick to resent any word or act
that IT CONSTITUTES into contempt OF it's
dignity. There is probably no Judge
on the bench who will not tell yo,,
that again and again he listens to
testimony In his court which he is
morally certain is false and untruth-
ful-and deliberately so-given with
the hope and purpose Of misleading
the court and iury-and defeating JUS
tice.

than a graduation.
The plan is something more far-reaching
than IL appears in it's first conception. II
has the possibility within IL of complete
emancipation from the painful burden of
all the commencement costs, against which
school principals and directors have thun-
dered anathemas in vain.
But the dowry-thats the thing. The
Washington Irving High school girls have
been working ever since they formed their
club on the strangest combinations Of COM

fined romance that ever confronted maiden

Somewhere or other. in New York or out
of It, there is a man who, as every girl
Of them knows, is destined to be the one
to put an arm in the possessive case around
the dowry wedding gown as his best be-
loved objective. How soon? The sooner
the fewer, they compute, with regard for
the dollars they will have to spend.
The average dowry fund, begun on the
basis of the amount the average gradua-
ton costs, may be set down at $50. And
the average marriage nowadays takes
place when a woman is % years old. The
dowry fund, begun when its owner is 10
years of age, has eight years to run, and
would give her, at the safe per cent
interest compounded semi-annually, $62.5o

stitute for her graduation finery would
have $3.50 to help toward her trousseau

The Washington Irving High girls have
gone the graduation fund one better by
organizing a minor saving scheme called
the car fare fund. This means that they
walk to school instead of riding, and so
lay aside from 80 to 60 cents per week for
forty weeks or 80. The fair computers
have already been calculating what they
would really have II they had been fairly
economical from the time they were in
noticeably short skirts-say, from the time
they were 10 years old-and also from the
age of 10, when they graduated
What with car fares saved and spending
money kept they have been reckoning
that between the ages Of 10 and Is years,
when the average girl reaches the high

so cents per week, or $40 a year. During
five years that would amount, in fiat
