KEEP YOUR TEMPER

Writing for the Minneapolis Journal.
A. ]. r. notes the demise of a seattle
citizen 102 years old, and suggests that
one of the reasons why he lived so
long was that he never grouched at
the breakfast table or elsewhere. Dis
cussing this, he writes:

The aged Seattleite ascribed his
longevity to his even temper; he had
not been angry since he was 20 and
driving a yoke of cattle, which amply
accounts for his temporary irritation
also he loved everybody, and every
body loved him.

ANCIENT ORIGIN
OF THE ROMAN BAR
Cease and Comment)

The Roman bar, deduced it's origin
from the intimate association, of
patron and client in the days of the
republic. This relation, founded upon
mutual support and assistance, bore a
considerable resemblance to that of
lord and vassal during the Middle
Ages, without, however, including the
oppressive restrictions imposed upon
the latter by the laws of feudalism.
Among the many duties required of
the patron was that of transacting
the legal business of his clients and
appearing for them in court. This
service was at first entirely gratuitous.
but subsequently, when the ties of
hereditary connection became less
binding, and consultation with pat
rons was abandoned by their clients
for the advice of jurists possessed of
greater legal erudition, voluntary
fee, called an honorarium, was eX-
lished by custom, and in the course
of time, when excessive gifts of this
kind were virtually demanded, all fees
were regulated by statute.
After law had developed into scr
ence the profession become recognized
as a distinct calling and legal pro-
cedure having been Systematically or
sanized, was representation of parties
in court was successfully effected by
three classes of neutrality-suspicious.,
cognitors and advocates.

TODAY'S SPORTS

CHICAGO, Dec. Intercollegiate
athletics in the western conference
were restored to a pre-war basis here
today. at a meeting of the big ten
faculty committee, held in connection
with the scheduled meeting Of the
athletic directors and coaches
The freshmen rule, wiped out when
the war department assumed control
of the universities, to establish student
army training corps, was restored and
the faculty committee again came into
control of athletics. The committee
however, voted to disregard oil elig-
Utility rules pertaining to the 1918
football season, which makes 1t pos
sible for those who played varsity
football to compete for four years in
that sport.
Although the committee voted to
ignore eligibility rules for football
players, the freshman rule will go into
effect now and no first-yea men will
be permitted to take part in athletic
contests for the remainder of the col
legiate year.

IT is, therefore, with the keeneSt

1914 scarcity, disease, deprecated

Jewish workers almost to starvation.
During the war small group decided
to take the most immediate and etfec-
tive step. About three years ago 430
workers formed cooperative so

rise in prices Each worker contrib

of 1900 francs the society began to

members of the society were able to
purchase four times cheaper than the
ordinary public. This cooperation So

budget of $4,000 francs Their first
year of business showed profit. Dur
