France, the True Pacihst

Lloyd George, in his statement to the
Petit Parisien, denying that Great Brit
ain would leave France naked in the
presence of an enemy which he has seen
scourge her twice, INDUCES in no round
about discourse. The words are simple
and straightforward.
France is to have security--not merely
Tor limited period, but for ar-stretch-
ing future. The British came once.
They are ready to come again The beast
has been mastered, but if he arrives
again France and Great Britain will be
united in brotherhood.
The promise will be rcassuring to
sorcly troubled France. Doubtless she
would like similar declarations from
other lips. But the French are logical as
well as emotional. They submit that they
cannot be expected to be wholly at ease.
even though they know good friends will
ultimately save them from extinction.
They look at their devastated prov

In Medieval New JERSEY

Aeroplanes may buzz overhead and
women may sit on political "steering
committees" and be made eligible to hold
Office under the solemn covenant of the
society Of nations. But every now and
then we wake up to the fact that we are
living in a world which still harks back
to the foibles and superstitons of media-
valism.
A woman resident of the rural section
of neighboring commonwealth, often
held up to admiration for the cclerlty
and generally emancipated spirit of it's
methods of justice, has just been in
dicted as common scold.' And this
indictment has been upheld by the
majesty of a county court. The judges
decision is said to have been based on
ruling by the New Jersey Court of Err
rors and Appeals sustaining a similar
indictment found in 1890.
This prior offender was also woman.
What is it that inevitably associates this
ancient misdemeanor with purely femi-
nine loquacity? Every witch who ever
rode broomstick in the chldrens story
books wore skirts and a Tapping head
dress. Every malefactor ever pictured
as decorating the seat of ducking stool
was a woman.
Was there ever, under man-made law,
man witch or man common scold"?
The law is laggard. In these enlght-
ened days the provision under which in
our time two New Jersey citizenesses
have been put in peril of the duckjng
stool can be vindicated only by the in
dictment of some loose-tongued citizen
maledicting in basso profundo. At
least, indictments should be brought in
pairs.
The decision sustaining the common
scold" Indictment against Dame Fuller,
of Wyoming, N. j., was made on April 2
1t came a day too late And if the duck
ing stool is to be again rugged up, the
ceremony ought to take place the next
Jersey wash day." that bucolic sum-
mer festival, now largely figment of
the imagination, in which the Jerseyites
Of the back counties make their annual
acquaintance with the salt sea waves.
