MEN JURORS
NO REASON
TO BOAST
Women Should Not Be
Barred From Trying
Murder Cases.
By Mrs. Walter Ferguson

A well-known criminal lawyer
sagely remarks that women should
never serve on juries in murder
cases because they are prone to be
upon other women.
To those advocates Of psychology
who delight to probe for inhibitions
and the hidden meaning Of human
emotions, the reason for this should
Mt be hard to find.
Woman has been taught to look
critically upon the loss of virtue in
sister, largely because throughout
the years man has pounded this idea
into her with a gat Nobody mag
ines, I suppose, that women them
selves ever started the pleasant little
custom of killing a wife when her
inf1delity was proved, for in those by
gone days women started nothing.
They had no more chance to express
an idea or put it across than the
modern house cat has Of making out
the income tax.
Where the sins of sex are con-
ecrned, who has been paying since
the world began? And who has been
forgiven unto seventy times seven?
1t will taake many a year of educa-
ton to overcome this unconscious
inbred, unjust idea in feminine
minds.
On the other hand, does any man
contend that men make very tntelli-
gent or fair jurors when pretty
woman sits as prisoner before the
bar? Is not one Of those extremes
as bad as the other when we con-
slider that in the courts it is jus.
tice for the innocent and punish
nlent for the guilty we seek?
1t argues no greater lack Of poise
or mentality for a woman to bring
bouquets of flowers to man on
trial for his life than for twelve good
men and true, in the fact of the
clearest condemning evidence, to
free a woman from a murder charge
because she sheds a tear or two and
ogles them while doing so.
When it comes to getting clear
thinking and brains on the jury
bench, it is hard to see just where
the men have any boasting to do.

They are not good sports in the
game of love. They lose too hard.
Men are wiser. They rarely hold to
the ashes of a dead love, expecting
and insisting that It brb ald into
flame again. Women do, and the
question, How can I win him
back?" is a most frequent, feminine
one.
Yet nothing is a greater waste Of
time than raking the ashes of a
burned-out romance. If the fuel
that fed it in the first place could
not hold the flame. where is the
logic that would put flame and fire
and interest into crap memories?
