settled down into q steady acceptance
for picturesque paletots and coats and

Suit Skirts for snrlnu.

Seldom has there been a season
when so many fancy trimmed suit
skirts were shown as this spring, says
the Dry Goods Economist. This Is
due to the vogue for the demi-tailor
made, which calls for a skirt to cor
respond. The newest idea in the mar
ket at present is the draped skirt,
which is shown in some Of the high
class suits OF soft materials, such as
chiffon, taffeta and charmeuse. There
are a few models of this kind now In
the market and many more are In
course Of construction.

The Honorable Frederick R.
Coudert of the New York bar, in
an address before the American
Bar association, said:
To my mind the general I'M
popularity, not to say disrepute,
, into which the law Z = = has
fallen is due primarily to incom-
potency both of the bar and the
bench. Let me say at the outset
that I believe our Judges<to be
honest, = = = : but in too many
cases the necessary temperament
general education and technical
skill are lacking *** owing
to the fact that the judicial posi-
tions are political rewards rather
than well earned distinctions.
1.-THE functions of a Judge are
not difficult. A fair professional
training, sound common sense
and willingness to work are suffi-
cient to make Judge efficient
and esteemed"
Throughout Mr.. Coudert's adj
dress he 1abors hard to place the
major part Of the responsibility
for this "lunpopularity" and dis
.repute" upon the bar especially
"the appalling ignorance and in
competency of the younger mem
bers of the bar"
I squarely challenge the truth
of that statement. The response
bility would be more truthfully
put upon the older members of
the bench; for never before have
so high qualifications for admis
sion to the bar been required by
