Rev. Barriers subject last Sunday
evening, Recreation" was a very
timely one, now just as the schools
were closing and also the people
are thinking more seriously about
their summer vacations. This sub
ject is often classed among the So
called questionable amusements. Mr..
Barriers treatment of it was very
sane and reasonable. Indeed it was a
very masterful handling of it. He
did not condemn recreation, but
claimed that it was just as necessary
as work, and hence God given. He
claimed that no one could be fully
developed, we'll rounded Christian
who did not recreate. For recreation
was just as necessary to the develop
ment of Christian character as wor-
ship. The only question was that of
the limits of recreation. This would
be very easily settled if one kept in
mind their relationships to Our Hea-
venlv Father.

SUSpENDS HETTRICK
FOR CODE PRACTICE
Lawyer Twice Convicted Is
Barred From Courts for
Three Years.

John T. Hettrick. code of practice
lawyer, twice convicted on charges aris-
ing from the Lockwood committee in
vestigation two years ago, was sus-
pended from legal practice for three
years by the Appellate Division of the
Supreme Court yesterday. This and
similar actions in three other cases were
taken on the recommendation of the
grievance committee of the Bar Asso-
cia ton.
Hettrick's convictions were for mis-
demeanors. the Bar Association COM
mittee pointed out. Conviction for a
felony would entail disbarment.
The opinion Of the Appellate Division
was written by Presiding Justice Proc
tor Clark, who said
1T may be that a clever able and
adriot lawyer who lends his talents 10

visions of the law for the purpose OF

Hettrick was released from the peni-
tentiary February "a after serving a
year of an indeterminate sentence for
conspiracy in the plumbing trade. He
was convicted and fined $500 in May

LAMBORN RESEATED
IN COTTON EXCHANGE
Court Decides Broker Is Not
Responsible Because Boy
Gave Out Quotations.

Z The Appellate Division of the Su-
preme Court yesterday sustained the ap-
plication of Arthur II. Lamborn, broker,
of 1872 Front street for a writ of man
damus directing the New York Cotton
Exchange to cancel his suspension and
restore him to full membership.
Mr. Lamborn was suspended for SIX
months from June 5 for conduct detri-
mental to the best interests or the ex-
change" The decision Is said to be
one of the first instances in which sus-
pended broker has been reinstated IN
such a manner. The case went to the
Appellate Division after Justice Dom
nelly denied his application for man.
damus in June.
In reversing this order Justice Alfred
r. Page wrote for the Appellate Divi-
sion:
"Mr Lamborn has been suspended for
acts found to have been committed by
employees Of his firm, without his
knowledge and against his orders, on
the ground that he did not personally
supervise the telephone operators In
branch office which was not under his
personal supervision or management.
Yhe head of a firm could not spend
his time listening to the conversations
of his telephone operators. and was not
required personally to be present at all
times In a branch office for the sole
purpose Of supervising the telephone
operators.
1--WE are in thorough sympathy with
the efforts of the exchange to suppress
bucket shops; but. however laudable
may be their desire in this regard. it
Is not permissible to punish the innocent
or TO infiict penalties not authorized by
the bylaws We hold. therefore, that
appellant (Mr. Lamborn) could not be
disciplined upon the evidence of the by
laws as now framed
Mr. Lamborn was suspended for an
alleged violation of the bylaws OF the
exchange and breach of contract with
the Western Union Telegraph Company.
It was said that a switchboard boy in
the branch of Lamborn & Co. at Wall
street supplied information through
continuous quotations" to the Ameri-
can Cotton Exchange. The American
Cotton Exchange was convicted and
fined in June for bucketing.
