Public Patience

Public Patience
Perhaps they can = for q
while. But even the public
grows tired Of being ployed for
all it's worth. The worm can
and will turn is pinched hard
and often enough.
First Dorozio, then Burmon
was tossed into the ring like q
peanut to q pochyderm. The
next extravaganza to be pro-
duced will toke place next
month when Shufflin' Joe IS
scheduled to meet q huge oot
named Abe Simon, who is rem
iniscent Of Primo Cornero.
Need we 90 further? Jocobs
will have to blow and blow hard
to put that one over.
The only fight which will
grouse any interest will be be-
tween the champion and Billy
Conn; ond we ore inclined to
speculate whether the interest
won't be just 50 much woste-
as hos been tiresomely proved
in the post.

TWTNING FARM HOME
DESTROYED BY FLAMES

The West Princess Anne home OF
Mr.. Harry Twining on Thornton
Farm on the Manokin River was al
most totally destroyed by fire Thurs
day night, December 10Th. The resi-
dence. valued at $4,000, suffered a
loss estimated at $4,000 or practically
its entire value. When the Princess
Anne firemen arrived on the scene
. about 1920, the roof of the struc-
ture had already fallen in, and it is
a remarkable instance of the COM
pany's efficiency that any part OF the
building was saved.
Mr.. Twining and his daughter and
son-in-law, Mr.. and Mrs. Lee DIX
who have been residing with him
since Mrs. Twining passed away last
wear. had been visiting in Princess
Anne Thursday evening, and wher
they opened the door upon their re-
turn home, were met by an inferno
of smoke and flame. They were un
able to save anything but a baske'
of clothes from the kitchen.
The firemen placed their new ant
powerful engine beside the river ant
with this inexhaustable water suppl!
were able to save a part of the dwell
ing. However, when they attempte'
to leave the steep and muddy rive
hank thew had to borrow Mr.. Twin
ing's farm tractor to help them vi
the slippery bank.
Mr.. Twining and Mr.. and Mrs. DI
are making their home at Mr.. P. E
'Twining's, the original InornCol
Farm homestead, which was not dam
aged by the fire.

FROM OUR
EXCHANGES
MARYLAND WOMEN WANT
TO SERVE AS JURYMEN

The women of Maryland-at least
many of them-want the right to sit
on juries in this state so they can
pass Judgment on the disputes and
shortcomings of those who take the
law in their own hands.
The bill to give them this right
will be presented at this session OF
the Maryland Legislature and will be
sponsored by various State and Bal
timore City Women Clubs and civic
organizations. Mrs. George e. Hal
sey president of the Maryland Branch
National Woman's Party, is one OF
the leaders in the fight which will be
on non-partisan grounds, Democrats,
Republicans and Independents unit
ing behind the measure.
Among some of the organizations
sponsoring the measure are: Mary
land Federation of Women's Clubs;
Maryland Federation of Business and
Professional Women's Clubs; Wo-
mems Bar Association; Quota Club
and many others. Mrs. Halsey in
speaking of the bill said:
"There are large numbers of our
women who have the patriotism to
wish to do their civic duty as jur-
ors and also have the necessary time,
education, experience and good judg-
ment.
s'Many of these are in middle life,
their children grown, and their
home duties few. Dealing with house
hold problems, children and the like
has given them experience valuable
in the jury box.
"To them, jury service would give
training in citizenship, an important
matter in these changing times. Men
and women look at things from diff
ferent angles, the presence of both
on a jury makes for fairer decision
whether the accused be male or fe-
male.
"The existing exemptions for mer
are ample to excuse any woman un-
willing to serve or who would be in
convenienced by serving. Judge Eu'
gene O'Dunne lists twenty-five ex'
cuses in our courts in addition tt
nine statutory exemptions. Among
those excused would be:
young girls: no one under TWEEN
ty-five is eligible. This is a statu'
tory exemption. Women dreadine
the responsibility of a verdict or the
possibility of hearing unpleasant tes'
timony, excused under Nervousness.
Women in poor health or prospective
mothers; mothers and other house
keepers, whether employing servants
or not; employees whose employers
object; women whose absence from
their usual occupations would cause
inconvenience"

to pick up Irish wives and, as time
went on, Irish slaves - chiefly

Not all the Vikings were fierce,
plundering pirates. Scandinavia
was torn by strife. No mans life
or home was safe. In Iceland the
lovers of peace among them found
haven where they could settle
down in sod houses with their
Celtic women and men slaves. Not
infrequently the slaves, aided by
the wives, murdered the masters
and set up for themselves in q
country where there was little
chance of the law overtaking them.
But on the whole Iceland was q
