Harold Peat on
 How to End Wars
Blames School Books and History for Exciting
 Hatred

Harold Peat speaking yesterday afternoon before the members of the Women's club on 'The Inex- cusable Lie urged his listeners to romance in peace in order to end war and blamed schools and his- tory books for exciting youth to fighting. He stated that if peace had all the drama and romance of war and if the youth of all countries were taught to hate war humanity would no longer be curs- ed with another such disgrace as happened in Europe in 1914
 Respect of one nation for the other is what is needed today, the speaker declared, adding that it is impossible for this to be brought about when youths are taught in school that their respective nations are always right.

THE JURY SYSTEM

Speaking before the Ketchikan Rotary Club Judge J w. Harding of the First Division observed that o0 per cent of those drawn upon jurles are not qualeo to serve. The Judge hastened to explain that ms was not geographical but covered the entire natloh.
 For some time eminent jurlsts of the natlon nave given forth similar opinions, while at the same tune ol fering strong criticisms of the entire structure or c inal procedure. ,44
 It would be surprise to witness a conpleIe lleC- amophoss in the jury system and Tn the procedure lor hearing criminal actions .
 In arraigning the jury system 1t IS necessary to place the blame where it belongs It apparently ies Ill the fact that there has become embodied m the crn law mass of techncates and supposed safeguards ol life, liberty and pursuit of happiness whlch nave Ill fact served to defeat these very subjects.
 Under these technicaltes and mode of procedure an intelligent man, capable of passing judgement upon evidence and fact compared to hearsay and bee mas difficulty in securing the average jury In fact the least he knows, the fewer opinions on any subject he holds and the least natural intelligence he displays better qualities him for jury duty under the system than were he Solon in intellect, mental equilibrium ana honest intent.
 The unintelgent jury is the loophole thru which criminals escape and by the token the avenue thru which often innocent convicted on unntelgent bias
 There is grain of truth in Judge Hardings obser- vaon and he does not stand alone in this respect.
 The jury system presupposes man to be tired by his peers euual) Some of the verdctS rendered with respect to murderers and racketeers to confirm the equality question: On the other hand the defendant at the bar often stands high above his jury in ntel gence fairness and of justice than the IF men col ectively who pass upon his case.

Manners and Morals
BY JANE JORDAN

and upbraid the selfish creature who
destroyed their happiness. They are
foolish enough to believe that they
can cure the situation by force, by
revenge, by vituperation. But they
only destroy the thing they sought
to save, and live to be sour, enbit-
tered women.
I particularly admire your attti-
tude toward your children, and
your wise decision to preserve their
ideal Of their father.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am a young
girl very much in love with man
several years older than I. He wants
me to marry him, but he has been
in the penitentiary for five years.
Just got out few months ago He
also has been married and has three
children, but his wife has married
again and has the children, al
though he has to support them. My
folks don't know about these things.
He says when they know him better
he is going to tell them everything.
He is trying to go straight, but
my folks just would die If they
knew all these things. Sometimes
I feel like leaving them letter,
telling them everything, and run off
and marry him. love him so
much. WORRIED.
Dear Worried know so little of
the man that I can not advise you
intelligently. I do not even know
what he was in the penitentiary for.
I do think, however, that it is
far from intelligent for you to trust
your own judgment in the matter,
and that you ought to value the
mature advice your parents could
give you. They know the man. I
do not.
