In the Days News

Eighty years old today is Baron
Mersey, the eminent English jur-
list. whose name is familiar to the
peoples both OF the United Kingdom
and of America as that of the COM
missioner appointed by the British
government to inquire into the de-
struction OF the Titanic, in 1912, and
OF the Lusitania in 1915. He was
also president Of the court OF in
quiry, in Canada, on the loss of the
Empress of Ireland, in 1914. Itsis
sometimes believed that the only
road to distinction in the British
judiciary lies through the house of
commons, but Lord Mersey's par
liamentary career lasted only two
years, from 1895 to 1897, when, as
John Charles Bigham, he repre-
sented one OF the Liverpool divis-
ions. In 1897 he was knighted and
appointed to the bench. In due time
he rose to be chief Judge of bank
ruptcy. and president of the pro-
bate, divorce and admiralty division
of the high court of justice.

of Illinois, collection of city plans
with explanatory notes, planting
schemes for public and private

pageants are recommended in order
that the people themselves may
take an active part in the amuse.
ment OF the community and brins
out the artistic instincts which in
! some cases lie dormant now bul
which with the proper incentive
could easily be brought into play
The committee hopes to make ad
