ASKS OHIO SOCIETY To
Aid DISTRICTS fight
John Joy Edison Appeals to Members
to Help Preserve Half-and-Half
Plan for Capital.
JUSTICE STAFFORD Is SPEAKER

John Joy Edison, presiding at the
monthly meeting of the Ohio Society of
Washington at Rauschers last night.
asked the members Of the society to
support the present movement TO pre-
vent certain members of Congress from
abolishing the ''half-and-half' plan of
District government.
Mr.. Edison took the chair in place of
Justice Day. of the Supreme Court, who
had presided during the business meeting.
Before We go on with our program"
said Mr.. Edison. II want TO call to the
attention OF the members certain acts
by members Of Congress toward the
abolishment of the half half meas
ure. This measure was framed by some
Of the brainiest men who ever sat in the
halls Of Congress- The tendency of men,
bers of the House District Committee to
set aside this fruit Of mature legislation
and give the District another form OF
government Is causing grave alarm among
business men OF Washington.
81 want to ask every member of the
Ohio Society present to earnestly sup
port the movement to prevent this con-
templated change and you will be work
ing for the benefit Of the District IL you
use your influence with your Congress
men to prevent the plan which We fear
the House District Committee wishes to
bring about"
Justice Wendell p Stafford, Of the Dis
trict Supreme Court. also spoke.
His topic was The Courts and the
People" In part. Justice Stafford said:
The courts are the proof of the pud-
ding OF government. The jury is the
keystone of the judiciary and the whole
power OF the people to protect themselves
is vested in the jury. By virtue of the
jury the courts are in the hands Of the
people and will always be. as long as
the jury lasts.
After thirty years on the bench, /
look upon jury trials as the safest and
sanest method OF Jurisprudence, and I
believe that should We lose the Jury We
would be injured more than benefited BY
the change. You sound business men.
when you are tempted to shirk jury duty,
ask yourself: Why should ! gather the
benefits of government without seeking
to share its burdens Instead of casting
aside the jury trial, we should seek to
strengthen it

Trick to Lenathen the Waist.

= 4 Is
A piece of ingenuity is to have
bands of satin and galloon begin the
middle of the waist line and drop over
the hips, ending in the middle of the
back A young girl worked a dance
gown of tornado pink satin with these
bands of gold ribbon.
This seems like simple trick and
one may not clearly see at first how it
lengthens the waist line, but 1t has
been tried out and with so much sue.
cess that it is wasting time to doubt.
The bands are drawn rather closely
around the figure, below the waist, and
they take away from the old-fashioned
effect OF an empire line, and they also
hold in the fullness of modern skirt
when it has been proved that this full
ness Is not attractive.
