The first grist had been ground
out and | came in at a lull in the
proceedings. only one person sat
on the anxious seat. A stolid, olive
skinned young woman in bright
blue with cherries on her hat. She
seemed to wooden or miserable to
show interest in anyone.
The judges bench is very high
above the culprit's bench, but the
Judge, a small man, did not seem
remote or forbidding. OF course,
my not being a "citee" helped me
to this feeling. A skylight fur-
nished the only light, which fell
softly on the judges hair, just be-
ginning to silver. A small pink and
white blossom Nung Imply in his
buttonhOle, suggesting the aesthet-
icism of the man, and relieving the
austerity of the courtroom.
Leaving the woman. sitting
stoically on the front bench, the
Judge invited me into his private
office. 1t was an intimate room,
more like den in a home, cush-
ions for the chairs, a pin cushion
on the desk and a picture of the

paper weight. on one wall hung
two small, oil portraits, artistically
framed in gold, of Washington and
Lincoln. Pinned to the wall below
these was a rotograVure of Wash
ington, Wilson and Lincoln. On
another wall were tackled clip
pings, cartoons, calendars and a
large newspaper picture of Henry
Watterson; the southern colonel
who never drank.
The roll-top desk was piled high
with papers and books, every pig
eon-hole held all it could without
bursting. The writing surface Of
the desk was Uttered with odds and
ends. 1t was the room and desk
of the faithful, affectionate type of
individual; the person who likes to
preserve the thing that pleased
him, appealed to him or that had
served him.

Judge, as he sat at his desk, max
ling very exact, geometrical figures
on the blotter as he talked. He
gave me only the side of his face,
occasionally turning 1t toward me
in full--a trick he has on the
bench--as though not wanting you
to read all his thoughts for fear
you might discover that he would
rather give you another chance
than not; or it may be only an odd
bit of shyness,
whats the woman in there up
for?" I asked, adopting the court
vernacular with an air of ease.
She's there TO complain of her
husband, who beat her last night"
What about?"

Hers. He is infatuated with an
other woman and the wife found it
out and nagged and complained
about it, and he didn't like it. The
husband is the mayordomo in
some families. expects to do as he
pleases. bosses the wife pretty
thoroughly and thinks he is with
in his rights if he gives her a tap
now and then. The guiltier the
husband, the more likely he is to
beat her up.

New Note

Today there is a new note struck
on the Fourth of July. The old VIC
tories of the Revolution recede into
the dimmest past; and poets who have
written, as did that patriotic son Of
New Jersey, Doctor Thomas Dunn
English, Of how
There flows Assanpink: yonder Mon
mouths plain
Spreads green before us, fertile with its

There is the Tory blockhouse on the ridge,
There Paulus Hook Red Bank and Quin-

or, like Bryant, have sung how
The British soldier trembles
When Marions name is told,

| history-a history ever to be cherished
but no longer to fill the foreground
in the national annals. Even Gettys-
burg and Chickamauga recede, and
the bloody shirt, buried deeper than
ever plummet sounded, seem forever
incapable of another languid flap. New
triumphs and new ideals fill the minds
of the people who have, in part at
least, realized the aspiration of the
| patriot who declared:
Our banner still defiance filings
To sceptered power and may not rest until
| All peoples and all lands alike are free
From threat of princes and their brood
Of tyranny
None the less, many of the old ex-
hortations still ring true. To the end
| of time Americans can repeat the
words uttered by Daniel Webster, not
many months before his death, when
the republic completed its seventy
fifth year and the great orator entered
on his seventeen:
''This anniversary animates and
| gladdens and unites all American
hearts. On other days of the year
we may be party men, indulging in
controversies more or less important
to the public good; we may have likes
and dislikes, and we may maintain our
political differences often with warm
and sometimes with angry feelings.
But today we are Americans all in all,
nothing but Americans. Ev-

the occasion upon which
it was issued, the interest
which is Of every age and
