woman I'd like to see him put N
jail"
Gossip is one Of the chief feed
ers Of this court. One of the names
for the court is "The Hall of Cos
sips" The Judge gave a bit of ad-
vice or following what people say"
a number of times.
Warned Against Cossips
'fDoat pay SO much attention to
what people say" he told one wife.
"Don'" you know that there are peo-
pie in this world who go about
carrying tales Just to make others
miserable? They come and tell you
something to make you feel badly
and then go away chuckling to
themselves
There are children involved In
most of the cases. Often they
are brought into the court and
hear the charges Of their irate
mothers, charges far from suitable
for cllildren's ears. The probation
officers are making a study of the
Domestic Relatio IS Court in its
relation to the Children's Court
They have found in many cases that
the children Of parents who are up
in the former later arrive in the
Children's Court.
By the Page law the Domestic
Relations Court became possible.
Before the reorganization under the
Page law all cases came up in the
regular district coprts- The per-
sons working on the cases that come
up in this court say that it is sell
dom that the family breakdown Is
due to the shortcomings of the man
alone. But the only recourse for
man who wants to have a decent
home and whose wife is persistentiy
lazy and inefficient is through the
social workers outside the court.
The chief purpose of the court II
to look out for dependents who may
become public charges. The gen
eral public, the taxpayers, arc pro-
tected by the courts finding the per-
sons responsible for icpxHd ,nts and
ordering that they pa certain
amounts TO: .heir support.
Prohibition Wasn't Helped
According TO the workers. in the
iuurt prohibition has had little no
ticeable effect upon the business of
the court. They believe It Will de
crease the cases In t:.nA
The welfare Of the children is the
obtec. of those connucte1 with the
court, and to this md probably the
Jaw puts the entire onus on the man.
The Domestio Relations Court is
really tre x!vcs' court. Women
Off ;ers are on wery hnpl. Women
-~ce!ve cae complaints. women are
he workers who look iA.o the cases.
The court probation bureau is
headed by Nan, SUE many os his
assistants arc women. a woman
judge IS low Il .nd,!ng some Of the
cases, and women lawyers often
have one side or Tho other.

Wife, S24; Husband, $40

The judge orders him to make the
back payments in small allotments,
added to what he will pay in the
future, and reduces the future allot

young fellow $40 a week for himself,

time. Two years abroad completed
her education, and then she was pro-
nounced quite Finished" The world
was hers for the conquering.
But on one of her eastern bound
ocean voyages Florence Pullman
met certain young mana sturdy,
clear-eyed Westerner, named Frank
Lowden. After that, even though
she might have had title if she so
desired, there was no other man in
the world for her.
Lowden a Briefless LAWYER
The attraction was mutual on
both Sides" as the old darky said.
But Lowden had nothing but very
new law practice, and the Pullman
fortune stood like wall between
them. He had overcome some pretty
big obstacles in his pioneer days in
the West, but here was a cropper!
However, the grit that carried
him as a seven-year-old boy across
the plains from Minnesota to Iowa,
trudging with bare feet behind his
fathers prairie schooner, and that
had helped him work his way
through school and college, did not
dessrt him when he went to face his
sweetheart's father.
@What have you got, young man,
to offer my daughter?" asked the
great master of industry
The young man, who had cleaned
up his own schoolroom when he was
teaching in Iowa in order to earn
a few extra dollars, and who had
put himself through the Union Col
lege Of Law by working as a law
clerk in Chicago at So a week, stuck
out his chest and replied:
"a clear head, a strong heart,
willing hands. and the ability to
support your daughter as she would
like to live"

into his work, took up tho study of
law. SO that even .natr,niony failed
TO put stop altogether TO her
thirst for knowledge. But The com
lng OF her children did, ana, although
she was admitted TO both the District
and supreme courts OF Nebraska
after they moved to LincolA 20 live.
she never actively practiced.
The career Of William Jennings
Bryan--as political dictator, legisla
tor, newspaper man, writer and lee
turer-is too well known to men,
ton here, but scarcely known at all
is the part which Mrs. Bryan has
played IN IT, She IS tho type Of
woman who keeps decidedly in the
background Of her husbands 9 sue
cess, pteferring to play her part be-
hind the scenes rather than to bask
in the spotlight
Not Good Mixer
In the first place, she has not the
good mixing proclivities that have
made the Bryan smile and hand
shake famous, nor has she ever
cared a great deal for tho social
SIDE Of life. She might even be said
TO lack that sayoir fare when other
oiiic!al ladies possess. But N her
quiet, forceful way she has been OF
tremendous aid 10 Mr. Bryan and
the only Campaign manager he
ever had. He relies on her sound
Judgment and probably has never
inserted u planl. in the Democratic
platform without FIRST thrashing it
out with Mys. Bryan.
Mrs. William j." as she is affec-
'ionately known, has been pretty
close to the White House on more
than one occasion. And now that
her husband again holds the Demo-
cratic whip, it is hard to tell which
way 1t may fall. In the mean time.
MRS. Bryan is in the limelight and
comes in for her share Of discussion.
She, however, has not felt the fitful
pulse Of politics for two decades for
nothing. Sae knows what tenn
peramentai thing IS 2 campaign, and
never depends on what may happen
tomorrow, nor looks that far ahead
Therefore, her vision has not broad
ened yet to next years moving dav
at the White House.
New-York tribune., 1920-04-11

Mrs. Bryan's Schooling
M RS; SnuA WILLIAM JENNINGS
wi BRYAN. who was Mary
Elizabeth Baird, of Perry,
ILL.,, had more schooling than was
thought necessary for girls in those
days when woman's mentality
played so small part in the gen
eral scheme of things.
Her quest for knowledge was in
satiable. She had barely finished
high school when she entered Mon
ticello Seminary, ard two years
later the Presbyterian Academy for
Young Women, at Jacksonville, III.
Here she was graduated with high
honors at the age of twenty, and
the valedictory address she delivered
at that time was the talk of the
school.
From the academy she skipped
right on to the Illinois College and
thence to the University of Ne
braska. There is no telling where
she would have ended if it had not
been for another brilliant valedic-
torian and fellow student, one Will
liam Jennings Bryan, who put a
stop to her mad career and married
her not SO very long after she be-
came the smartest school teacher in
Illinois.
Young Bryan was as handsome as
a Greek god, and Mary Baird a
dumping of girl with face like
picture, but tn. coming together,
or these two meant more than the
usual blending Of mans vi~ilitv and
strength with woman's charm and
dependence. 1t meant the meeting
on common ground of two strong
mansalities-with sameness of
outlook and ideals.
Studied Law, Too
This was the great magnet that
drew them together and that has
held them ever since that October
day, thirty-six years ago, in the
closest copartnership Of married
life.
When MIR. Bryan hung out his
shingle at Jacksonville, H., Mrs.
Bryan. in order to enter more fully
New-York tribune., 1920-04-11
Home, Sweet Home

With jerk the little husband
turned and dashed q tiny wad Of
paper to the floor. He went out
silently. No doubt his mind was
working despairingly over the new
"homc' he was to make with
the stubborn-mouthcd woman, and
visions of his comfortable boarding
house distracted his concentration.
The case OF these middle aged
persons is an exception to the morn
ing's routine. Most of the couples
are young. Many of the wives are
self-supporting.
Youth now has the stand. A
pretty little Greek girl is making,
a complaint that her husky young
husband has not paid the IS a week
which the court ordered. She has a
lawyer and disdains to indulge in
the bitterness which most of the
women display. In fact, she scorns
to recognize her husbands presence.
The husbands lawyer believes
New-York tribune., 1920-04-11
Abandon Hope

But over the door of the court
room proper the fitting sign might
be abandon hope, all marriages
that enter here" The bitterness
and lnvectlve aroused over the table
in the courtroom can never be
erased, and only in the most ex-
ceptional cases are there reconclia-
tons after the case has actually
come to trial.
The courtroom itself is an infor-
nal place. The judges wear their
official robes, but they talk to their
patients" man to man, or man to
woman. They speak the language of
these people, and do not indulge in
technical phrases or complex legal
terms except where they are abso-
lutely necessary.
Across from the judges desk is d
long table at which sit the defendant,
the lawyers, the court stenographer
and the probation officers. To the
judges right is the witness chair.
Wounded Soldier Must Paw
A case is in progress. The abused
wife is telling the judge her trou-
bles. She is thin, swarthy and
hard-faced. Hatred darts from her
metallic eyes whenever she turns
toward the defendant. Each party
IN this case has a lawyer.
The husband, an ex-soldier, still
New-York tribune., 1920-04-11
Now and Then a Vixenish Wife
Who Talks Too Much Arouses
the Ire of His Honor

like two naughty children who have
received a deserved scolding.
Several cases Of little, inconse-
quential men who had for one rea-
son or another neglected to keep up
their allotments to their wives went
through the routine. One was that
of an ex-soldier who had been earn
ing good wages before the war, but
who had been unable to get his old
job back when he was let out Of the
service. The wife was cross-look-
ing young woman with stringy hair.
The judge instructed the man to get
better job and to make his pay
ments regularly. During the pnuse
in which this record was being
entered the wife started in on a
harangue Of the husband.
An Experienced Nag
"stop talking" said the judge f.
nally. Young woman, YOU show
that you are an experienced nag.
No man could live with you unless
you changed your disposition. Why.
If you talk like that in a courtroom
before other people, what must you
do over the kitchen stove? No won
der you haven't been able to get
along. Did you ever try to talk
over your troubles with YOUR hus-
band in nice way?"
II have" said the wife, somewhat
abashed, "twice"
Perhaps the saddest case of the
day was that of a young Italian
woman with two tiny children. Here
was real tragedy. The woman and
children were dressed in shabby,
cheap things. The judge asked if
she could speak English. Very
proudly she said that she could. She
told the judge that she was almost
desperate because the father did not
supply any money for the support
of the children. She did not want
anything for herself. She could
work, but she needed financial help
in order to be able to take care of
the children.
Bits of Philosophy
The long mornings procession of
unhappy people was disposed of.
Bits of philosophy from the judge
had fallen upon the shiftless, the
dodgers Of responsibility, the selfish
and the helpless alike. Most Of the
cases involved men of obviously
low mentality. Many of them were
the spineless type. The women wure
nearly all militant. Win their shil-
dren as preteXt, they wanted 20
have the judge "do something" to
the man.
Time and again the judge ex-
planned that if the man was put in
jail the possibility of his making
money to support the children was
out of the question.
Hell find some excuse for not
paying, anyway said one large
New-York tribune., 1920-04-11
Won Her Fathers Consent

They were big assets, and Mr..
Pullman was too much of a busi-
ness man not to recognize them as
such. Next to his daughter, he be-
came in due time one Of Lowden's 5
Stanchest advocates. and Vhau fhey

dered him to pay his wife for the
support Of three children. He claims
1hat ne is out Of Job, that he has
been unable to get steady work
he is chauffeur-because OF his af-
nlct'on. His lawyer tries to bring
IN the argument that the man OBJ

CURED by the court because he be-
heves that the third child does not
|. belong to him. However, the Do
mestic Relations Court has nothing
to do with the merits Of the third
child. 1t has ordered that he paw q
certain amount toward the support
of the children. He has failed to
pay, and the Judge orders him put
under bond for the amount he owes,
Hoot Mon.
Next on the docket is the case
against a little old Scotchman. A
weary man with a shriveled face
and scant gray hair is sworn. His
wife is large woman wearing a
befeathered hat and a cheap fur,
She sits staring at the little hus-
band, her chin deep in the coarse
fur.
Glow long have you people been
married?" asks the Judge.
"Thirty years." is the reply.
"Well, what is the trouble?"
1t seems that the man came to
this country from Scotland twelve
years ago. lie has been holding a
good JOB and living at comfortable
boarding house, and furnishing
nothing toward the support of his
wife. The couple have grown chill
dren.
Landlady Under Suspicion
The wife came to this country
only recently to live with one of
her daughters. Fathers landlady
fell under the suspicion of his wife
and daughter. They decided that
at least some of his salary was
coming to them. So they hailed him
into court. The wife said en-
phatically with her Scotch burr that
she didn't want anything to do with
"himself' again. The Judge sent
the two out with a probation officer,
After the disposal of several other
cases the three came back. The
wife said that she would be willing
to make home for her husband.
"Well,' said the judge, "you
people are getting old. ! think you
New-York tribune., 1920-04-11

would better patch things UP and
make the best of it,"
Turning to the man:
"You get home and support this
woman. She says she will keep
house for you."
