TICKET SALES
DOOMED FOR
BAR OUTING ,

Members of the District Bar AS.
ISOLATION today were called upon
by Abram F. Myers, chairman of
the ticket committee for the an
nual spring outing, to make their
reservations as soon as possible.
Mr.. Myers said tickets are NOV
ing faster than IN some preceding
years, but inasmuch as the coming
outing on May %, bids fair to ex-
eel all previous affairs of the kind,
the tickets should be even more
in demand, he believes.
Moreover, Mr.. Myers pointed
out, Benjamin S. Minor, general
chairman and Lucien H. MERCER,
treasurer of the committee, are
under a considerable strain for
fear the usual response will not be
manifested sufficiently early for
them to undergo a period of re-
Taxation in advance of the outing.
Accordingly, each member of
the committee has set himself up
as a "one-man ticket booth" and
an intensive campaign will be
Waged during the next week to
rope in all the timid lawyers who
are afraid they will be unable to
take the entertainment program
outlined by John J. Carmody's
entertainment committee.
Tickets may be purchased from
any member of the committee and
members of the association are
reminded that two highballs go
with each ticket.

long such doings have been going
on.
Leonard Block answers:
Don't let prosperity go to
your head, my boy. When you
have spent that money, you may
find a drOuth among paying
clients and when you do get
good case with a big fee, it may
be appealed and kept pending
in court for years."
