PROSPECT

ROSf Ell
Social dancing will come natur-
ally to seventy Prospect sixth
graders when they enter junior
high school next year. They are
learning the fundamentals of both
modern and ballroom dancing at
Wednesday noon classes in the
school gymnasium, under expert
tutelage.
Mothers Of the children act as
hostesses, with two present each
week. They are as much interested
in the ease and social graces their
youngsters are picking up as in
the various dance steps they learn.
The school and the Prospect
PTA are cooperating IN the spon-
sorship of this worthwhile venture.
MAYFAIR
With the return of Mrs, Kather-
inc Knife to her third grade class
at Mayfair after an illness, the
children of the school are glad
they had the chance of becoming
acquainted with her substitute,
Mrs. Nita Gregg. Mrs. Gregg was
born in England, and came here
to teach for a year, But she didn't
return to England. She got married
here, and has lived in the United
States ever since.
The sixth graders, 1t happens,
have been studying about England
a great deal; and when they found
out that Mrs. Gregg was English,
they invited her up to talk to
them. The result was an informa-
tive and lively discussion of her
homeland.

Southwestern cattle rustler
named McKinsey, who had a
reputation as a ladies man. .
tried to get his eight-year sem
tence thrown out and a new trial
granted on the grounds that no
women had been on his jury. He
failed in that effort.
Woman Complains, Too
This situation was attempted
in reverse in California at a
later date, when Anna Manuel,
an attractive woman forger. was
convicted by an all-woman jury
She attacked the verdict, claim
ling she was entitled to-. some
men on the jury. The sheriff. she
charged. had "railroaded" her
by deliberately limiting the jury
panel to women.
Obviously women, in Mrs.
Manuel's mind, were inclined to
be less objective than men-al-
though she may have ommitted
the sheriff from the latter cate
CORY.
In any case, her objection got
mo further than had McKinsey's.
She was locked up, too.

For many years now, it has
been 9 well-established economic
fact that women control the
larger part Of the Nations wealth
and property.
Numerically, American wom-
en- surpassed men for the first
time In the 1850 census.
Now it appears they are CATCH
ing up with the male sex in
the all-important job of sitting
in Judgment on their fellow cit
izens. For the courts are report
ing a constant increase in the
number of women jurors as the
years roll by.
Last week a New Jersey man
was convicted of burglary and
sent to the State penitentiary.
The press reported the Jury that
sent him there was composed of
nine women and three men.
This is a far cry from the old
days,
Barred by Statute
Before the suffrage movement
in the earlier part pf this CEN
tury, women were prohibited by
law from serving on juries in
most States. That situation has
changed considerably.
Today women are excluded
from jury duty only in West
Virginia, Alabama. Mississippi
and South Carolina. In a num-
Der of other States jury duty
for women is optional with them;
but in most jurisdictions it is
now mandatory.
There are several reasons for
the increasing number of women
jurors, including their own de-
sires as well as the fact that
many men are excused for one
reason or another.
But it also is interesting to
note that male defendants often
want women jurors, presumably
on the theory that women feel
more sympathetic toward them
than men. Some years ago, q
