Is then that she can view politics, both

learned it in her own club life She sees
the relationship of individual to group
and when that is accomplished half the
journey is over.
The name of the league expresses best
its ideals and purposes. 1t is league

selves run their own organization. Every

made by vote of the girls There is no
such thing as an inactive membership.
Every girl is represented in the club ac-

"There is no reason that can see why
'newspapermen should be exempt" said
Mr.. Bremen; land by the way, l should
think they would be, on the contrary, ex-
ceptonally eligible. They ought to make
the best jurors in the world. And why,
will you tell me, should we excuse gov
eminent employees, or dentists, or law
yers, or clergymen? 1t is very unlikely
that lawyer or clergyman will have
secret information regarding the particu-
lar case he is called on to tfy--and if he
has, it is perfectly practical to excuse
him that time and call on him the next.
Gas for the exemption of undertakers
and embalmers, understand it is dono
on the ground that they might carry the
germs of contagious disease into the
jury box"--
And at this Mr.. Bremen meta phorical-
ly threw up his hands and said no more.
Mr.. O'Byrne was more communicative
and less emphatic. The first question he
asked was why the women of the state
had not pushed the bill amending the
jury law. He seemed to think there was
no reason for it's death in committee, ex-
cept that no one had taken the trouble
to feed and succor it and prolong it's life.
And on being asked what was the best
way to push similar bill for the next
session of the Legislature, he suggested
a conference between women interested

Cleaning Up the
Beaches and Parks

During the last six months the police
women have devoted great deal of their
energy and very great deal Of their
time to improving conditions in our parks
and on our beaches. This is work in
which the Commissioner is particularly
interested, for she remembers an expe-
rience which she had years ago, when
she took her three young children for
day on the beach at Coney Island, and
after searching in vain for a spot where
they would be safe from sights and
sounds which were unfit for them to see
or hear she bundled them off for home.
And now she is determined to make our
beaches clean and wholesome recreation
grounds, where a mother can spend the

in such large numbers. Women's quail
tications are equal to those of men, and
they are more than willing to bear this
burden.
~ say that women's qualifications for
this service are equal to those OF men;
by that do not mean that from the very
first they will be able to fill their duties
quite as we'll. Their mentality is as
good and their education usually as COM
plete-but they still lack experience, and
the average woman whose work has been
chiefly in her home probably will find it
more difficult at first to distinguish be-
tween truth and falsehood in the jury
box than men do, who have had to guard
against fraud and imposition in their
business. An eminent jurist told me re-
Gently that women in those states where
they are eligible as jurors take their
duties seriously and conscientiously, but
are likely to be influenced by sentiment
at first.
II would be the last one, however, to
underestimate the ability of women to
accomplish anything they set their minds
to. They are much keener than men in
many ways, even when they lack expert
ence-so much keener that men are fire.

THE working girl, in her small world
J. bound on one side by, penny fnery


j. bound on one side by. penny finery
and the other by petty job, used
to be one of the arguments against wom-
an suffrage. What she did not know
about social science was given as the
best reason in the world for keeping her
ignorant of it. Then, of course, the
working girl came along and spoke for
herself, and it was discovered that she
was reaching out from the confines of
her factory or her office toward civic and
national interests. And when this hap
pened suffrage came.
One of the routes by which the work
ing girl travels toward political and So
cial activities outside the bounds of her
home and her job is furnished by an or
ganization that conducts itself as an ex-
act parallel with the political life of the
United States. The city, state and ma
tional groups of the National League CT
Women Workers correspond directly to
the city, state and national organization
of public life in our country 1t works
like this:
A New York girl, with an eye to some
fun, joins the United Club, one of the
most aourishng of the local branches of
the National League of Women Work
ers. She goes to the clubhouse for club
suppers and entertainments, and one
night finds herself at business meeting.
She is asked to get up and state her
opinion on the question OF a new curtain
for the stage, thus becoming an active
member before she knows it,

day with her family without fear of any
unpleasantness. And so all through the
summer the policewomen have patrolled
the beaches and parks, with excellent re-
suits.
AS to the conditions in the public
parks l can'speak from first hand knowl-
edge, for something less than year ago
I spent an evening in Central Park with
one Of the policewomen who at that
time were employed by Mayor Mitchel's
Committee of Women on National De-
fence.
Through the courtesy of Commission
err O'Grady l accompanied one of her
policewomen one evening last week as
she made her rounds through the self
same paths and byways which year ago
l had traversed with Mrs. Douglas.
While these policewomen are the
legal protectors of women and girls of
all ages, it is the younger girls, girls
from. fourteen to sixteen years of age,
to whom they arc devoting the greatest
care and attention. 1t is the most vital
problem for the moment and one which
it is extremely difficult to handle, for
the heads of these susceptible young
women have become completely turned
by the glamour of khaki and blue serge,
and it is extremely difficult to differen-
tiate between the innocent and the
harmful friendships of these young girls
and their soldier and sailor friends, and

AIMED With a Handbag
And a Whistle

So many have asked the question,
Gust what does the policewoman do
when she finds one of these girls in the
park?" She begins her peregrinations
in the early evening, sauntering slowly
through the more secluded portions of
the park, where a more timid woman
would not dare to go alone, but the
policewoman is apparently fearless.
She is unarmed and her badge is usually
in her handbag; her only weapon is
police whistle. AS she walks along she
keeps sharp lookout on either side.
There may be black mass lust ahead
that looks like a rock in the distance,
but as she reaches it it moves and
separates into two masses silhouetted
against the sky, soldier and a girl
The policewoman speaks to the girl in
pleasant tone.
Good evening, my DEAR" she says.
Isn't it late for you to be out here in
this lonely spot? I am poIicewoman,
and 1t is my business to take care of
young girls. would like to talk to you
for minute"
The girl is usually very amenable, and
the pollcewoman takes her out of the
hearing of the young man and asks her
questions of all sorts, her age, her occu-
patton, family conditions, ETC., and then
she comes to the subject of the young
man, and after finding out all the par
ticulars concerning their acquaintance
if the girl is young she accompanies her
to her home and has a conference with
the mother. She is always careful not
to speak of the girls shortcomings be-
fore the father or brothers, for this

A Few Facts About Courts

criminal cases go to the Supreme Court,
where the nature Of the case determines
whether it is to be tried by judge and
jury or judge alone.
In the Appellate Division appeals from
decisions of county, and supreme courts
are heard. Here there are five judges,
one presiding and four associates, and
no jury.
The Court of Appeals, presided over
by seven judges, tries cases that have
been passed by the Appellate Division,
except in capital cases, which are re-
ferred direct from the Supreme Court
A commissioner Of jurors is appointed
by the Appellate Division to serve dur
ing the pleasure of the court, at a sal
airy of $4,000 yearly. His duties are to
make lists Of names taken first from the
city directory, then from the Blue Book
and the corporation directory, and send
qualification notices to the addresses
mentioned. The men thus notified ap-
ply for examination to the commission
his list. Names on the list are then put
on cards and placed in the wheel, from
which they are drawn by lot as needed
A juror can be called on to serve one
to two weeks during each term of the
court, but the usual service is less than
eight days year.
To qualify under the present law it
is necessary to be male citizen of the
United States between the ages of TWEEN
ty-one and seventy, to be of good moral
character, to own or to be married to
woman who owns at least $3.50 in real
or personal property, and to read, write
and speak the English language.
Jurors receive % cents at the conclu-
sion of case. They are paid 81 day.
however, for the period which they spend
in court after they are summoned to
jury duty, whether they are actually
serving or waiting to be called.

TRIAL by jury-"twelve good men
and true"--is not used in minor

and true"--is not used in minor
attractions of the law. In the
lowest court, the city magistrates, cases
are heard by magistrate, who actually
tries only some forms of misdemeanor-
breaking of the speed law, disorderly
conduct and infractions Of city ordi-
nances generally. Other cases he hears,
admits to bail, passes on to a higher
court.
In the municipal courts civil cases
from any borough amounting to $1,000
or less are tried, either by judge or
both judge and jury, by choice of plain
tiff or defendant
The Court of Special Sessions, presided
over by three judges--no jury-handles
offences punishable by fine of $500, or
Imprisonment for one year, or both.
A judge and jury both deliberate in
our Court of Special Sessions, where all
manner of criminal cases committed in
the city and county are tried.
New York is the only county in the
state which has not county court, but
one called the City Court of the City of
New York. Here civil cases are tried
involving $4,000 or less in which the de-
PENDANT is a resident of either Manhat-
tan or The Bronx. The difference be-
tween this and county court is that
county courts throughout the state
handle both criminal and civil cases, and
our City Court takes only the civil cases,
and General Sessions the corresponding
criminal ones.
Civil cases above $4,000 and major

Men, Of Course, Have
No Feelings

.
When the conference takes place for
the purpose Of drafting new law he will
learn something about cooks, perhaps
and there will be many other questions,
too, to decide.
For example, will the jury lists be
made out in alphabetical order and put
helter-skelter into the wheel, regardless
of sex? If SO, there will be juries Of
eleven men and one woman, or vice versa.
Or will the lists be kept separate and
certain cases be tried before juries of
women only, as in some suffrage states
where it is customary to impanel women
for trials affecting children and domestic
relations?
Do you think jury of women would
have condemned Paul Chapman to death

sentence of death at Sing Sing for a
murder he did not know had been COM
mitted until he was arrested?

It's Up to Baby
To Get You OFF

Mr.. O'Byrne feels it imperative under
present conditions that women should as
sumo the burden Of serving on juries as
soon as possible. He favors a special
exemption for women with young chill
dren, if they care to take advantage of
it, and for trained nurses, in addition to
the exemptions which already exist for
other professions and occupations.
"But," added Mr.. O'Byrne, eff we at
tempt to change the present law in any
other way than by emitting the word
male we face not one but many prob
lens. The law stipulates, for example,
that no man is eligible for jury duty I'M
less he possesses real or personal prop
crty to the amount of $3.50, or his wife
possesses such property. We would have
to make that clause apply equally to the
case of wife and her husband. l am in
favor, too, of abolishing a number Of ex-
emptions which now exist. Why, for in
stance, should election officials be ex-
cused? They serve one or two days in
the year and get salary for it-and are
free Of jury duty besides. And news
paper people? see no reason why they
should get off; they would make excellent
jurors" (Should a newspaper woman
feel fattered or frightened at this re-
peated tribute?)
"But," he added, II should dislike to
see some of the exemptions removed un-
less practically all of them were."
Mr.. OByrne seemed inclined to be
very lenient toward women who might
be needed at home, but felt that there
was wide field for culling fair jurors
among those who toll not nor spin and
have no cares save exercising Fido on
sunny days in the park. When we tried
to pin him down, however, to whether or
not ones cook would be entitled to ex-
emption because Of her essential indus
try, he escaped by saying that the clause
requiring possession Of $3.50 probably
