LESSONS FROM THE ORPET CASE

Comment on the verdict in the Orpet
case would fill volumes. Following is
the moral drawn by the New York
World
If young Orpet is held guiltless of
the final act of murder, he is by his
own admissions and the whole pitiful
| story of Marian Lambert convicted of
| things for which his associates and his
own consciousness should never hold
him guiltless. No jury's verdict on an
indictment for murder can relieve him
of the burdens of responsibility accum-
ulated before that fatal February
morning in Helms Wood We are liv-
ing In an age in which some deem it
wise to present publicly in print, in
motion pictures and in staged plays
the most intimate facts of life and the
consequences due to the violation of
certain vital rules. No printed or
spoken lines and no flash through the
hiii IOutd Poiht tue neeueu lesson so
wildly as does the true story Of this
tragedy of a college boy aad a high
school girl in the Middle West.
The Wausau Record Herald arrives
at the conclusion that "the law does
not afford sufficient protection to girls
during the period when from their in
experience and ignorance of life they
stand most in need of protection. 4"
1t says: Parents and relatives of such
victims as Marian Lambert can not
look with confidence to the courts to
punish those who succeed in vctimizing
such girls, +" but adds that mot stricter
laws, but stricter enforcement and
saner procedure are needed Possibly,
the greatest need is for better officers.
from deputy constables and policemen
up"
Undoubtedly there are important les
sons to be learned from the Orpet case.
1t is not 20 sure that they will be
needed.

Bingham, bringing his horse to its

Huldah and a protege of hers, as she
calls him. All the same, we needed
the post. Old one was OF soft maple

until there was nothing but stump

With quite spice of pride old Jared
viewed the improvement in question.
1t was simply piece of hollow iron

through this q steel ring had been
driven.

The new hitching post had been a

some broken links in the well chain,

a final token of his appreciation of
the kindness of his good friends.
That was not all of it. For long
time Seth Greene, working on farm
two miles away, had been dropping in
on the Bingham folks once or twice

ANOTHER NEW
SOCCER LEAGUE
MAY BE FORMED
American League is Not
Well Balanced-United
is Weak in Spots

It Is not at all unlikely that before an
other soccer season rolls around a Soc
Ger league will be formed in this city that
will include eight of the foremost clubs
in Philadelphia. At the present time the
only league in which all the teams are
fairly evenly matched is the first division
of the Allied. The American League is
lamentably lopsided and in the United
League only five of the ten teams are
contenders for championship honors.
An eight-club league composed OF the
two Disston teams, the Hibernians, Put
nam, Falls, Wanderers, Viscose and Fell
tonville would be good organization
and one In which the tail-enders never
should be separated from the leaders by
more than few points.
According to reports. the American
League is planning to increase the number
OF teams from TO 10. but as this league
has always been prone TO exaggerate
this statement may be taken with a grain
of salt AS matters now stand, 1t might
as well be run in two divisions with
Bethlehem. Disston and the Hibernians
in the first division and Boys Club, Vic
tor Talking Machine Company and Ran
gers in the second division.
