Woman Jurors,

The invasion of the jury box BY
women has begun in earnest in the
state Of Washington, and will be
watched by the rest of the country
with great interest. Our ancestors, In
their blindness, fancied that the revel-
atoms of the law courts were some
times unfit for the ears OF the gentler
sex. But the women Of Washington
have repudiated the gentler-sex idea,
and countless women Of other states
are trying to do likewise. Women
have for years def1ed the old conven.
tons, and the proprieties, too. and
thronged courtrooms in which evil
dence really unfit for any ears had to
be endured by judges. lawyers and
jurors. and they have seemed to en-
Joy 1t. That the gift Of logic was with
held from woman has been frequently
asserted, though never proved. but the
logic OF male Jurors in the state of
Washington has not been noticeably
strong There is no privilege the men
would more willingly resign to the
women than jury duty.--New York
Times.
