BLONDES AND BRAINS

e Z & Il = (
a LEARNED Judge was recently
a quoted as announcing from his
bench that he would not approve of
blonde ladies' as members of. jury
which was about to hear a case under
his jurisdiction.
Blondes are fickle,'' were the words
attributed to the justice intimating
law is supposed to assure the person
on trial.
A year or so ago d Western en-
ployer In advertising or Office help
announced that he would not receive
the applications of blondes, giving as
reason that he had found them in
attentive to work and temperamental
in disposition.
There has always been good deal
of discussion regarding the relative
attractiveness of blondes and bru-
nettes despite the fact that in the
long ago when the caveman was the
highest type of civilization, we were
all blonde, or at least red hair was
the dark4st tint
The reason why nature covered
primeval men and women with blonde
or red hair was twofold; that it
served the same purposes Of low Wis
Utility which is gained by the animals
whose fur coats blend with the SUR
roundings in which they live and the
fact that those colors better protected
the skin from the effects of direct sun
light.
We know that these colors of hair
prevailed because in the discovery of
almost every burial place of people OF
that time light or reddishly tinged
hair has been found.

Supreme Court Frees Newberry

The United States Supreme court
has handed down decision freeing
Senator Newberry of Michigan from
the sentence of two years in the peni-
Tertiary for alleged violation of the
federal corrupt practices act. The de-
cision is of far-reaching import. In
declaring unconstitutional the corrupt
practices act, under which Senator
Newherry was convicted. the court has.
raised the question of the power of
congress to regulate primaries for the
nomination of Federal officers and of.
the possible necessity of a constitu-
tional amendment to provide such au-
thority, particularly to enable the ere
alton of a national primary for the
nomination of candidates for Presi-.

LIBRARY WORK

library work has a great appeal
~ to many women. A girl is sure
of a good deal of liberty in such work,
can add to its value and interest IL
she be so minded, and can feel fairly
certain of permanent employment.
But the salaries are small, very
small. Like the teacher, the librarian
must struggle to make both ends meet
and keep UP appearances. She has
usually had a thorough education and
special training that has cost money
Sometimes she begins her work with
a debt to pay off She often Injuries
her health in the attempt to do this.
This is wrong
know one. young woman who "
librarian in a technical library. Every.
thing about the work 10 attractive and
interesting; the girl loves it. But she
could not afford to keep the position
were it not that she has a small pri
vate income to help, and no one de-
pendent upon her. She gets only $1,30C
year, with short vacation.
Libraries and library positions are
TO see great increase iii the next few few
years. Cleve. and well-bred women
will be in demand. But how can SUCH
women afford with living expenses
what they are, to take positions so
poorly paid?
There must be change in these
things.
The community must recognize that
positions of this kind, which are an as
set to the whole neighborhood, should
receive a fair return. A good library
cannot be good unless the librarians
who work, in it are well trained and
first class. Such cannot go on forever
making sacrifices because they wish
to serve the community, and love the
labor they do.
1t is high time to insist on a proper
increase in library salaries.

The ROMANCE OF. WORDS
"BUMPER."

this word harks back to the
days of the Restoration when
the drinking was deep and the
shouting long and when, as
penance for any slip OF the
tongue or forgetfulness OF man
ners, the culprit was sentenced
to drink a bumper without
splitting a drop.
As this feat did not depend
so much upon the liquid capac-
ity Of the drinker as upon the
steadiness of his nerves, 1t was
no light task particularly well
along toward morning. "a large

HUBBY'S LETTER
Jury Says She Can't Go
Through His Pockets.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-Has a married
woman an 'inalienable right" to go
through her husbands pockets?
"NO!" declared a grand jury of mar
ried men here in returning an Indictment
against Mrs. Sarah H. Morrison, plaintiff
in a divorce proceeding on a charge of
removing from his pockets the contents
Of letter addressed to her husband by
the other woman"
Mrs Morrison is technically charged
with having violated the Federal postal
regulations for opening letter addressed
to her husband. The grand jury held
that she violated the postal laws In open
ing the letter
Mrs Morrisons defense will be based
on the Mnalienable right Of a married
woman to go through her husbands
pockets" according to her attorney, S.
McComas Hawken, former United States
district attorney.
"If this Indictment is sustained by a
conviction, many married women will be
subject to prison sentences for just such
an act as Mrs. Morrison is charged with"
he declared.
Many letters have been fled rs exhibits
in divorce cases throughout the country
which appear to have been obtained with
out the knowledge of the husband, and
the indictment of Mrs. Morrison may
raise the question as to admissibnity OF
such letters in evidence.

EVANS TO STOP
OUTSIDE J. p.
COURT DEALS
Prosecutor Lays Down Policy
of Handling Motor Vehicle
Violations.
POLICE TO ENFORCE LAW

William 2. Evans, prosecutor of Marion
County, has laid down definite policy in
regard to the time-worn practice of al
lowing outside" justice of the peace
courts to prey on those citizens of Indi-
annapolis who may be guilty Of technical
violations Of the law.
Mr.. Evans says he believes violations
of these kinds should be handled exclu-
sively by the Indianapolis police ana
that therefore he expects to work
through the local police instead of the
Justices, whose courts were made notori-
Gus during the incumbency Of Claris
Adams, prosecutor.
Another outbreak of the kind that has
proved so obnoxious to the citizens Of
indianapolis was n.pped in the bud this
week when a charge against driver Of
delivery wagon for the /. Strauss
Company was dismissed by Mr.. Evans
deputy In the court Of Justice Rainey, in
Irvington.
In this and other cases the defendants
were forced to go to outside" courts to
meet charges of such a nature as falling
to stop the motors Of their trucks while
making a delivery TO customers.
Mr. Evans made the following state
ment relative to this kind Of cases:
II have been informed that justices Of
the peace In an out township have been
arresting people in Indianapolis for vio
lating various provisions OF the motor
vehicle law
Il would say that I believe that vio
lations Of this chlracter should be han
died by the police department, and
through the City Court, and that the
cases should not be filed in these out
townships unless there are special cir
cumstances requiring that this be done.
IL am determined. however, that motor
vehicles shall have licenses, and shall
have them properly displayed and shall
comply with other provisions Of the
motor vehicle law. The importance Of
this is apparent to any one.
Il have confidence that the police de-
partment will handle the situation and
shall. therefore, expect to work through

As soon as Judge Carter announced

Yesterday Judge Carter gave Mr.. Grant
until O'Clock to produce a copy of a

that there was no such record. Some
