and year after year, in diligent
support of my clients cause, I
have reached the place where
our Supreme Court says I have
four times as many cases in that
court as any other lawyer in
this State; and my cases and
briefs are used as models, and
taught in all our law schools, and
sought by the leading law firms.
In a recently published book on
instructions almost one-fourth of
them are of my composition. On
several occasions the Appellate
Judges have thanked me for my
arguments. No client has been so
poor that I could not accept his
just cause, and give it the same
attention I would the wealthiest.

senting the ISSUE of qualifica-

Finally, I have striven to edu-
cate my family, which has taken
all my earnings and most of my
strength; and I still have some
children to educate. I have done
this, by going far and travelling
late, all at the expense of enjoy

being with my family, of which I

such education as I had before /
began to study law. I know what
it is to go poorly clad in the
snow and heat to do the work on
the farm. I know what it is to
hoe corn. cut hay and other crops
with fatigued hands and tired
limbs. I also know the toll neces-
sary to cut. haul and saw timber
into lumber; to lamp 70 k

gone down beneath the surface

Four former presidents of the Ma

Court for a declaratory Judgment to
give them full rights as life directors
of the association.
The suit declares that under the
associations charter all former pres

Defendant has failed and refused to
allow them (the plaintiffs) to par
ticipate In the activities of the Board
of Directors and to fulfill their
rights, obligations and duties as
members OF such board"
Plaintiffs Listed.
The plaintiffs are Cornelia S.
Adair, Richmond, Va, president

Carroll G. Pearse, Milwaukee, Wis,
president from July 13, 1911, to July

The suit was filed In behalf of the
plaintiffs by Attorneys Paul B.

aid.
Suit Called Friendly"
Mr.. Mcdonald described the suit
as friendly" one to test the va

directors for life, merely through
having served as presidents.
Willard E. Givens, executive sec
fetary Of the National Education
Association, when asked about the
suit. said the associations consti-
tuition and bylaws were changed In
1897 In such a manner as to ex-
clude former presidents Of the or
ganiZation as life directors.
He expressed the belief 1t is q
question only as to whether the
change is applicable to those who
were elected and served as presi-
dents before that year.
