Embarrassing Moment.

One evening my friend and went
to church. AS it was raining we both
wore our rubbers.
We had to go upstairs in the bal
cony because the lower part Of the
church was filed. My friend took his
rubbers off and one Of them accident
ally fell through the opening in the
railing. The dirty wet rubber hit a
bald-headed man squarely on the top
Of his head. He turned around and
gazed at us long and hard. So did
everyone else. We made our escape
hurriedly with profuse bushes Ex-
change.

U. S. BAR COMMITTEE AFTER
BETTER LAW ENFORCEMENT

Much of the disregard for law eI-
lists, according to Reginald Smith.
chairman of the legal aid committee
OF the American Bar Association
which met yesterday at the offices
of Wade H. Ellis in the Southern
building, because many persons un.
able to employ counsel are victims
of petty injustices and their resent.
ment tends to be prejudicial to the
enforcement of law.
Methods for better enforcement OF
law were discussed at this meeting
and Mr.. Smith stated that legal aid
societies had been successfully EN-.
ployed in several States and cities.
Wayne Il. Wheeler of the Anti.
saloon League said that the flouting
t the prohibition law and its evils
breeds disregard for the law.

alarming in this sudden increase of
self-murder.
THE growing completely Of our
modern LIE, the feverish unrest,
crimes, divorce, bizarre, questionable
dress. and other things have caused
deranged nerves, depression, and
less self-control. Suicide claims the
educated, refined, and wealthy, as
well as the poor, ignorant, and I'M
known. There were reported to US
last year the following:
Ten editors and as many we'll
known writer's, forty students in
colleges and higher institutions of
learning, fifty.one school teachers.
twenty-one clergymen, thirty.nine
brokers, fifty.seven judges and law.
yers, eighty-six physicians. seven
mayors of cities, seven who filled
positions in State legislatures.
ninety.three bankers. lightweight
presidents and heads of large bust
ness concerns, and thirty wealthy
women.
"A husband took his life because
he told lie to his wife, while a
spinster took poison and left this
message: No man in the world Is
good enough for me- One man took
his life because he was denied a
divorce from his wife. while an.
other shot himself at being unable
to find his wife. Still another man
was found with a bullet in his
brain, and beside him a note say.
