WILLIAMSON IN APPRECIATION OF THOSE ADMIRABLE QUALITIES OF A LAWYER AND' GENTLEMAN WHICH HE so ABUNDANTLY POSSESSES THE PANDEX 1916 IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED PREFACE A profession more than any other occupation imposes upon its members grave duties and heavy responsibilities and in return offers the consequence of failure to the incompetent and corresponding honor and profit to those pre- pared successfully to meet the burdens placed upon them. A future entrant upon one of the professions may well be sobered by the prospect before him and the seriousness of the task of preparation to which he has already set himself. An institution dedicated to the education of future members of the profession may be expected to partake of this sobering influence and an adequate presentation of such an institution should reflect this seriousness of purpose. It is conceived therefore that this book should have a certain dignity and seriousness of tone in keeping with the profession of which it represents a part. The purpose of this book is to bring 'together into accessible form com- plete information concerning the Kansas City School of Law as it exists at the present time. ln attempting to carry out this purpose precedent has been disregarded and the problem worked out de novo, though there has been no hesitancy in adopting old ideas where it seemed advisable to do so. The difficulties in the way of securing student photographs, financial limitations and other considerations have each prevented the adoption of plans which would otherwise have been carried out. The collection of personal data concerning members of the faculty and students has entailed considerable labor and the defects incident to a pioneer enterprise have doubtless crept in. These data rest for the most part on the memory of individuals, but have been verihed where the means were at hand. Some confusion at the photographefs resulted in misnaming photographs and the correction of this error has caused considerable trouble, but it is hoped that all the mistakes have been corrected. The editor-in-chief is responsible for the make-up and arrangement of the book and for all matter includedg the literary editor is responsible for all literary matter includedg the art editor is responsible foriall art work included, the athletic and local editor is responsible for all matter included in the ath- letic and local sectionsg the advertising manager is responsible for the adver- tising: the business manager is responsible for financial and business arrangements. V Acknowledgment must be made to the entire school for their part in the production of this book. Special acknowledgment must be made to the faculty for financial assistance, without which the book would have been impossible, to the advertisers for their substantial appreciation of the custom of the school, to the subscribers to the book for their aid and hoped-for appre- ciation, to Mr. Mosher of Portland, Maine, for his ideas about typography and binding, to all contributors for their work, to Mr. Gardner and Miss Sinai for willing assistance in the dean's office, to Mr, Vvatson and Mr. Tucker of the senior class and Mr. Loos and Mr. Roberts of the junior class and Miss Kirby of the freshman class for class records, to Mr. Chilcott of the senior class for debating club records, and to all those whose timely assistance has lightened the editorial labor.

R. lngraham Hon. Wm. P. Borland DEAN Hon. Edward D. Ellison SECRETARY AND TREASURER Mr. Elmer N. Powell REGISTRAR Mr. Ben E. Todd EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Hon. Oliver H. Dean Hon. R. lngraham Hon. Edward D. Ellison The origin of the Kansas City School of Law dates back into the past century. There had been one or two previous attempts to start a law school in Kansas City which did not meet with sufficient success to warrant their continuance. Some of the members of the bar, however, felt that there was need of a school which would offer an opportunity for legal study, combined with practical experience, which could be arranged by offering lectures at night. This belief crystallized in the spring and early summer of 1895, when a small but determined group of prominent lawyers decided to launch a night law school. 4 Arrangements were made with the Kansas City Real Estate and Stock Exchange for the use of their rooms on the second Hoor of the New York Life Building Annex on Delaware Street, the privilege of the library of the Kansas City Law Library Association in the Court House was secured, and a fourteen- page announcement was issued. The Faculty as given in the catalog numbered six: Hon. Francis M. Black fLecturer on Personal Property and Equity Jurisprudencej, Hon. Charles L. Dobson CLecturer on Corporationsj, Hon. Edward L. Scarritt fLecturer on Bills, Notes and Commercial Paper and Real Propertyj, Hon. Edward H. Stiles fLecturer on Torts and Domestic Relationsj, Mr. john W. Snyder fLecturer on Agency and Partnershipl, and Mr. William P. Borland fDean and Lecturer on Contracts and Bailmentsj. The school was incorporated August 17, lS95, under the laws of the State of Missouri providing for eleemosynary corporations, by the following incorporators: judge Francis M. Black, Hon. Oliver H. Dean, Hon. Sanford B. Ladd, Judge Edward L. Scarritt, Judge Edward H. Stiles, Hon. R. ln- 4 THE PANDEX 1916 if graham, Hon. james H. Harkless, lVlr. John W. Snyder, Mr. Elmer N. Powell. Mr. Edward D. Ellison, and lVlr. William P. Borland. The officers of the corporation were: President, Hon. Francis M. Black, Vice-President, Hon. Edward I... Scarrittg Vice-President, Hon. Oliver H. Dean: Dean, Mr. Wm. P. Borland, Secretary, Mr. Elmer N. Powell: Treas- urer, Mr. Edward D. Ellison. Two additions were made to the regular faculty: Hon. Oliver H. Dean QLecturer on Corporate Securitiesj, lVlr. James H. Harkless fLecturer on Code Pleadingl. and eight special lecturers were added: Hon. Henry C. Mc- Dougal, Hon. Blake L. Woodson, Mr. William L. Stocking, Mr. Frank Dexter, Mr. Robert lngraham, Mr. Henry Wollman, Mr. Edward D. Ellison and Mr. Elmer N. Powell. A supplementary announcement of four pages was issued giving details of the incorporation, additions to the faculty and courses offered. Two years' work was required for a degree, there being nine courses given in the junior year: Blackstone's Commentaries, Contracts, Agency, Domestic Relations, Personal Property, Partnership, Torts, Bailments and Bills, Notes and Com- mercial Paperg and eight courses were given the senior year: Real Property, Equity Jurisprudence, Crimes, Corporations, Pleading and Practice, Evidence, Constitutional and Statutory Law, and Wills and the Administration of Estates. The Hrst session of the school was held on September 6, IB95. There was an enrollment of fifty-seven the first year, and the first graduating class in I897 numbered twenty-seven. The men responsible for the organization were determined to make a success of the enterprise and spared no efforts to carry out their intention. The school soon after moved to the second floor of the New York Life Build- ing, and in 1899 the growth of the school demanded yet larger quarters, which necessitated the removal to the Ridge Building. ln l902 the school suffered a loss in the death of Judge Black, who had been president of the school from the beginning. His passing was mourned by the students, by his co-workers on the faculty, and by the bench and bar, not only of Kansas City, but of the state at large. He was succeeded by the Hon. O. H. Dean, who has so directed the policies of the school as to insure the continuance of its, past success and the promise of a brilliant future. In i902 the requirements for a degree were changed from two to three years' work and as a result there was no graduating class in l904. The class which would have been graduated then was continued in the following year and was graduated in l905. In I9I0 the school again moved its quarters, this time to its present location on the fifth floor of the Nonquitt Building. Three years' work divided among thirty-one courses are now required for a degree. The regular faculty numbers twenty-two and there are nine special lecturers. The enrollment in 1915 was two hundred eighty-three and the graduating class numbered fifty. The alumni numbers eight hundred seventy-five. The year was saddened by the death of Judge James S. Botsford, Lec- turer on Equity Jurisprudence, and one of the many able and noted jurists of the faculty who have labored to make a success of the Kansas City School o aw.

The alumni at that time numbered only a few hunclred. Previous to this time there were only individ- ual attempts at occasional dinners or 'class meetings of various kinds. The Alumni Association has held annual dinners in the spring at com- mencement time, but last year no such meeting was held, and the banquet on Missouri Day was the first regular alumni meeting for a year and a half. Ar this meeting the present ofhcers were elected and an opportunity given for the alumni and present students of the school to become more thoroughly acquainted. - , The alumni at present number eight hundred seventy-five and are scat- tered from the Atlantic to the Pacific: in the Philippine Islands, Hawaii and Porto Rico.

Marley Ihe class of 1905 was the first class graduated by the school under the requirement of three years' work for a degree. The class of I905 was the first class to issue a year book. Perhaps it was the closer ties of friendship formed by three years' association which prompted the desire to have some permanent record of the life of the school. At any rate, with the aid of the faculty, a board of editors, consisting of O. D. Leming, M. H. Boyle, E. E. Morris, T. E. Railsback and H. B. Manard, issued a small volume of eighty- six pages in a russet cover, decorated only by a monogram of the initials K. C. S. L, and the numerals '05. The book had no name, but merely served the function of a senior class book, and was dedicated to the faculty in appreciation of their assistance. The senior class the following year determined to continue the practice of issuing a book. The board consisted of: Editor-in-Chief, Frank Wither- spoon, Jr.g Literary Editor, Clifton Langsdaleq Literary Editor, Edward Y. Blumg Literary Editor, Robert S. Ogilvyg Business Manager, Charles F. Vieregg. The name Pandex was determined upon as suggestive of the Pan- dects of Justinian. This book, the first volume of the Pandex, was decli- cated to Hon. Oliver H, Dean, contained one hundred thirteen pages and was bound in red and gray, embossed with the seal of the school and the numerals '06.

Some of the students saw the need of some means of se- curing practice in public speaking, which had not hitherto been provided by the school. During the Iast weeks of the school year in 1913 an effort was made to interest enough students to warrant an organization for this purpose. P. Becker, '14, and R. IVI. I-Iulen, '15, were the active promoters of the or- ganization, the former being elected the First president. The school offered the use of quarters during the summer, and on june 10, 1913, the first meet- ing of the club was held, the organization effected and officers elected. There were fifteen meetings held during the summer of 1913, and the season closed with a picnic at Swope Park. The success of the season led to a repetition of the work in the sumxmer of 1914, and the organization con- tinued a second successful season. It has been the custom for the junior class in the spring to take the initiatory steps toward organizing a club for the ensuing summer, and toward the close of the year Paul Koontz was appointed to invite the Freshman Class to participate in the work during the summer. The classes met for the first time on june 22, this being the first Tuesday after the Bar Examination. At this time the organization for the current year was effected and the officers elected. The meetings continued during the season once a week, and the Debating Club may now be considered a permanent feature of the life of the school. f B 4 1 r 1 1 , ATHLETICS THE PANDEX l9I6 ATHLETICS 103 THE Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers Lawyers, X' Fo r feite BASKET BALL TEAM COACH E.

He was not able to put the same team on the Hoor twice in succession, and he is to be congratulated upon the manner in which he held the team in the race. It is to be hoped that he will be back again next year. as the players are convinced that he is still the Peerless Coach. Herrod was one of the hardest workers on the team. He was in the game to win, and his spirit is to be commended. His spectacular dribble plays were the cause of much comment. He is a freshman, and we may look for some more good work from him next year. O'Rourke had things his own way at center, as he was the tallest player in the league. His ability to get the jump started many a play toward the Lawyers' goal, and not infrequently he dropped the ball in from under the basket, his favorite, and we may say a sure shot. O'Rourke will also be back next year, and his pep will do much toward keeping the Lawyers fighting, as it did ins the season just past. Davis is a player of the scrappy type, and his guarding ability put fear into the opposition. His defense of the Lawyer goal and his splendid floor work were features of every contest. He will be back next year. This should be welcome news to the followers of the game, as he is always popular with the spectators. Mccluer played his usual lighting game at guard during the first part of the season, but was severely injured in practice and was compelled to give up the game for the remainder of the year. His loss was a great handicap to the team, as he was a great factor in the team work. The school will be glad to know that he will be back next year with more tight than ever. Riley did not play the first few games, but was a valuable addition to the team when he arrived. He played a clever floor game and was re- spected for his guarding. His picture does not appear with the team, as the photographer refused to ruin his reputation by snapping a three weeks' growth of beard upon his face. Conlin, last year's star, did not play all the games. Old Reliable as- serts his condition was not of the best and he did not want to play unless he could give the team his best services. He played well when in the game and will be missed when the whistle blows next year-he graduates this term. Lewis will return next year. He has improved wonderfully under the careful tutelage of Coach Goldman and will make them all hustle to keep him from being a regular. Clevidence showed he had the right spirit, and with a little more experi- ence and training by the coach will be hard to beat next season.

K x 5 LITERARY l I 7 THE BEGINNING OF THE KANSAS CITY SCHOOL OF LAW By ELMER N. POWELL The genesis of a law school in Kansas City is found in the struggles and ambitions of eight or ten young lawyers and law students who met together in various offices from time to time, beginning in 1892, for the purpose of acting as mutual quiz masters upon elementary subjects and certain leading cases in which they were interested. I remember right well the Hrst formal meeting of that little Club, which we at once named The Law Students' Club, as we were gathered around the big library table of our friend, the late judge james S. Botsford. The writer was undeservedly honored with the first presidency of the Club, and Hon. V. C. Karnes gave us an address of greeting. IVIr. E. D. Ellison, IVIr. Rees Turpin, Mr. Ferd Long, IVIr. William R. Hereford, IVIr. john C. Swift, with the writer and four or five other en- thusiasts, comprised the membership of those present at that first meeting of the Club. Not long after this we often discussed the idea of a night law school and the need thereof in Kansas City, but we were advised by older heads that an attempt along this line had been made a few years before and had signally failed: however, we soon found that without regular instructors our interest Ianguished and after a year or two an average attendance of but four or five students was found at these meetings. So that in the early summer of I895 Mr. Wm. P. Borland, Mr. Edward D. Ellison and myself again revived the idea of a night law school here. We discussed the plan with certain eminent members of the bar and upon gaining their assurance that they would lend their influence and genius to the upbuilding of a law school, we proceeded at once to the work of organization and procured a pro forma decree of incor- poration from the court. With such men behind us as judge Francis IVI. Black, Hon. O. H. Dean, judge E. L. Scarritt, Hon. Sanford B. Ladd, Hon. John W. Snyder, Hon. R. J. Ingraham, Hon. James H. Harkless and Judge Edward H. Stiles, we three originators of the plan felt that if we performed our part of the burden of organization and subsequent duties to follow the success of the school would be assured. The question Hrst confronting us then, and of equally vital importance, was to find the student body. The press was very kind to us, we had the prestige and learning of these eminent older men and we young men gave of our energy and executive ability to the enterprise without stint, so that by the opening of school in September of IB95 we found we had pro- cured an enrollment of fifty-seven students. The picture of that first session of the Law School is very vivid in my mind, notwithstanding this long lapse of time. Judge Francis IVI. Black, our president, Hon. O. I-l. Dean and the other distinguished members of the faculty graced the platform, while IVIr. Ellison, lVIr. Borland and myself were busily engaged seeking and seating the students, trading tuition receipts for cash and using our utmost efforts to enthuse them all with the work. Our little room in the Annex of the New York Life Building was filled, as Judge Black rose before what we now term the Soap Box Pulpit, and sounded the keynote, which was characteristic of his own life, namely, that eternal vigilance, untiring energy and scrupulous dealing with our fellowmen con- IIS THE PANDEX 1916 stituted the real price of success in the law. He and lVlr. Dean meant, looked and talked like the dependable Rock of Ages to us. Seated around the little pine tables was a student body of whom the faculty felt justly proud. Of course I might qualify this statement with an exception or two, for example, we found in the assembly a couple of colored men whose presence there sorely vexed certain members of the faculty, and also in one corner sat a little old lady who must have been at least sixty-five years of age at that time. The latter had been married to a justice of the peace and so received her be- lated inspiration for the law from associations with him, it seems. But it came to pass that the gentlemen of color, as well as the lady in the law lost heart long before the time for graduation had been reached. l do not recall that we have ever had a colored man matriculate since that time, while our lady graduates have given heart to us all and been a compelling cause for addi- tional pride in our institution. Other members of the class have almost without exception made good and some achieved great success in their profession, as we have found upon compiling a history of the alumni of the school. We younger members of the faculty were hard pressed indeed to main- tain finances and the dignity of the school apace in those days. For a num- ber of years we devoted the major part of our vacations to going through the county and a part of the state distributing our own catalogs and boosting our institution with little talks before schools in various towns of the state. To be sure, we were living chiefly on hope and promises of development of the school during those years of struggle, for the finances permitted only a pit- tance of compensation: but little time to attend to the little practice we indi- vidually enjoyed, or to the upbuilding of that practice, since the multitude of duties involved in developing the Kansas City School of Law was most ab- sorbing: but we had no question about the ultimate success of the institution after the First couple of years. It was a proud moment indeed when in 1897 the curtain at a little the- ater on West 9th Street, then known as the Lyceum, went up and judge John F. Philips delivered the commencement address to twenty-seven graduates. At that time eleven members composed the entire faculty, and the course was of but two years. It was not long, however, until the student body increased to such an extent that we were compelled to seek newer, better and larger quarters, which we did in the New Ridge Building, and in 1909 another move was made necessary for the same reason, and a lease was secured on the quarters now occupied by the school in the Nonquitt Building. Meanwhile the course had been extended to three years and the faculty increased to twenty-six regular lecturers, and in l9l0 we added eight special lecturers, namely, Judge E. Cuinotte, Judge Shepard Barclay, Judge John F. Philips, Judge D. Lawson, Judge E.. E. Porterfield, Judge James lVl. Johnson, judge Ralph S. Latshaw, judge Joseph A. Guthrie and others of equal learning and prominence have been added since. We have always counted ourselves most fortunate and attributed no small part of the success of the Kansas City School of Law to the enthusiasm, loyalty and earnestness of our alumni. The loyalty of the faculty goes with- out saying. I doubt if there has ever been a body of men at the head of any educational institution that was more enthusiastic and more loyal, or who had a stronger pull-together spirit than ours has shown. lt will be of probable interest, l think, to show something of the whereabouts and vocations of our gg g gg gg A g LITERARY II9 graduates during the twenty years and more of the life of the school in the following: About 65 per cent of our graduates actively engage in the practice of law, which is found to be 25 per cent in advance of the average number of law school graduates that practice after receiving their degree of LL.B. The standard attained by the Kansas City School of Law has not been accom- plished without a great amount of hard work, and the earnest, conscientious labors of the instructors and the inspiration given by the leading members of the bar, who have lectured in the school have materially aided in this success. First and foremost, as l have intimated, in building up and maintaining a school is a strong and active alumni association. lt is the bulwark of suc- cess of any school. These members of the alumni have made good and are now practicing in nearly every state in this country, some in Porto Rico and a few in other countries. Two college fraternities have been organized in the school, and one, the Delta Theta Phi Law Fraternity, has been named the Snyder Senate, in mem- ory of our beloved friend and learned lecturer in this institution from the time it was founded until his death in l9l0, Hon. John W. Snyder. The following figures have been obtained, after considerable investiga- tion, and will be of probable interest as to student body H895 to 19155: That about 50 per cent hailed from other states than Missouri. That about IO per cent were college graduates upon matriculation into our school. That about 30 per cent have been high school graduates. That about I0 per cent were members of Greek letter societies. That about I5 per cent were school teachers previous to entering our school. That about 60 per cent have occupied clerical positions. That about IO per cent were at the heads of business concerns, or at the heads of departments in business concerns. That about I0 per cent were mechanics. That about 5 per cent were ministers, doctors and chemists. The present generation of young men has come to realize the truth of the saying of the late Chief justice Waite, that The time has gone by when an eminent lawyer can take a class of students into his office and become their teacher. Once that was practicable, but now it is not. The consequence is that law schools are a necessity. The realization of this fact, and certain knowledge of the great advan- tage derived from having none but high class lawyers as instructors who are actually engaged in the live practice of the law are largely responsible for the remarkable growth, success and high standard reached by the Kansas City School of Law, and its pronounced success as an institution of legal education for students of the law. l20 THE PANDEX 1916 BEGINNING A LAW PRACTICE By JOHN G. HUTTON Ever since he was a very small boy, in fact aImost as far back as the period when he donned his first pair of pants and the boots with their red tops and copper toes, he had intended to be a Iawyer. It is true that his father had decided the boy should be a doctor, and his mother hoped he might choose the ministry, but in spite of this difference of opinion for perhaps because of it, the desire and plans to be a Iawyer had overcome the opposition of his parents, and we find him, at the age of twenty-four, a graduate of a good Iaw school with the bacheIor's degree. The first question which confronts him is the selection of the IocaIity where he will establish his practice, and this selection he makes after much consideration of the various cities of the country deemed worthy of such a Iawyer as he fully intends to become. I-Iis choice finaIIy falls on Kansas City, Missouri, for here he has some good friends, and here he had accumu- lated the wherewithal to pay his way through school, so he feeIs that as he is destined to honor some Iocality, it is fitting and proper that it should be Kansas City. Upon his arrival here, with his degree, abundance of confidence fwhich had revived some after a more or Iess successful bout with the State Board of Bar Examiners at Jefferson City, and fifty doIIars in money, his friends deluge him with advice as to the proper steps to take in order to become securely established in the practice of his chosen profession. I-Iowever, as no two of his advisers are of the same opinion, and he cannot foIIow the advice of all, he hits upon the happy expedient of deciding the matter for himself, thereby settling the question and at the same time learning the vaIu- abIe Iesson that every tub stands on its own bottom. I-Ie has heard this homeIy adage before, but has never until now realized it. Having determined to build a practice of his very own, he rents desk space in an office in a respectable building, and has a few cards printed bear- ing his name as Attorney and Counselor at Law, which cards strike him as being exceptionally weII gotten up, indeed. He next acquires a desk and chair, a day book and file box, and nmtoves in. I-Ie has had his name in- scribed on the door and window of the' office, under the heading of Law Offices of, and even the unpleasant fact that he-has onIy seven dollars and fifty cents Ieft, after paying for these few essentials, does not prevent his bIissfuI enjoyment of this first evidence of the sign painter's art. To be sure, he never did fully believe the many pathetic stories of young lawyers whose clothing became worn and threadbare, with the soIe exception of the belt, which faccording to the stories, was never fastened in the same place Iong enough to wear perceptibIy, and he does believe most emphatically that what man has done man can do. Knowing that good Iawyers have grown from no Iarger beginnings fand fondly believes from smallerl, he argues that he can do the same. Upon the suggestion of a Iawyer friend he has handed out some of his cards, and as a result he is temporarily caIIed away from his admiration of the Iettering on the door the very first day by a telephone caII from a young friend, who asks him if he examines abstracts. When he has pinched him- self to make sure he is not dreaming, has recalled that Iawyers are generally LITERARY I 2 l supposed to perform such acts, and that he has been formally declared to he a lawyer by the Supreme Court, he decides that he surely must examine them, and answers in the affirmative. He devotes a solid week to the examination of this abstract and picks out on a typewriter what he is pleased to call his opinion, of which he is very proud, then calls his client, pompously pacing the Hoor until the ar- rival of that most estimable gentleman. When asked the size of his fee, he timidly suggests that he believes ten dollars would not be too much, whereupon the client fbeing of like mindl promptly pays him all in one piece, and thanks him for full measure. He should have liked to keep this first fee always, but the first of the next month, much to his regret, he is obliged to break it to pay for his rent. The weeks slip by, bringing in a few collections, out of which he realizes enough to keep going. After a while a lawyer friend places in his hands all papers in connection with a death case in which he believes there may be a civil liability if eye witnesses can be found. The young man spends all his spare time fand he has more of that kind of time than any other, looking for the witnesses, finally finding them and winning his case-the first real law case he has handled. The fee he receives is a good one, but though he needs it badly, the compliment of this lawyer friend means much more, for he has not merely collected a fee, he has won his spurs with honor in a hard fight. A foreign corporation comes to town and its president and treasurer call on the young man for the purpose of employing him to represent them in all legal matters incident to the corporate business. He asks time to think about it, and they tell him that they will wait for his decision one day. He then rather hurriedly investigates them as best he can, and finds that they have been engaged in the same line for some time, in one locality, and he therefore signs their contract, by which he agrees to represent their Kansas City members for one year upon a retainer fee which the company agrees to pay. The company immediately begins to sign members, but remains in town only long enough to secure about all the members it can, then leaves in the night, never paying retainer fees thereafter. lts members are left for their attorney to care for or kick out, as he sees Fit, but they take all their records with them and answer no letters. The members come in from all sides seeking advice and counsel and some one to handle their small legal tangles, but remembering his training both at home and at school to BE HONORABLE, WHATEVER THE COST, he cares for their affairs for the full term of his contract with the concern which had collected their mem- bership fees, and charges off his time, trouble and expense to experience This experience costs him many nights of hard work and all the surplus of his fees from other sources, as he is obliged to employ collectors in order to properly care for the claims submitted, but this doesn't hurt half so much as do the complaints of some of these members who, realizing that he is receiving no retainer's fees, assume therefore that he is necessarily neglect- ing their affairs. Through the bitter disappointment resulting from this mis- understanding on the part of these people, he learns another valuable les- son, to-wit: to do for a clearly inadequate, or no monetary consideration, that which customarily is paid in money results in dissatisfaction to the bene- ficiary of his labors as well as to himself. However, the satisfaction of hav- ing kept the faith he feels more than overbalances the dissatisfaction and misunderstanding of this case. I22 THE PANDEX l9I6 He has not given much time since the first few months of his practice to wondering where the next client is coming,from, for he has had plenty to do, though most of it was unremunerative. Some few of his clients, how- ever, prove to be good ones and his practice grows gradually and almost imperceptibly, the increase being only noticeable when he discovers that he cannot take care of it all, and feels the need of a partner. So he forms a partnership and together they take over the entire offices in which he had taken desk space at the beginning. During the sprouting period he has gone through many experiences-some pleasant and highly gratifying and some decidedly unpleasant. There have been times when he could see no way out, but by dogged persistence and the determination not to be a quitter, he has managed to meet all obligations Qwhich kept pace with his incomel and to keep going. He has come in contact with every conceivable type of client. He has met the plain crook, who has a scheme to defraud if it can be accomplished without too much likelihood of spending a term in the penitentiary. The satis- faction incident to informing this parasite of the nature of his unalterable opinion of such schemes and the scavengers who hatch them, is one of the things which makes him glad he is a lawyer. There have been times when he was ready to subscribe to the theory that all men are liars, and when he wondered what he was here for anyhow, also if he had not been born some two or three centuries behind schedule. But he had always remembered in time that the greatest success is to retain his own self respect, and gradually growing into a better class of practice, the pleasant experiences have over- balanced the unpleasant, and the members of his profession have come to recognize him as a man who can be depended on to do his best and to keep the faith always. And now, with a few regular clients, his books, the respect of those who knew him and the determination to be a good lawyer whether the result is great monetary orpolitical reward or not, let us leave him, first expressing the hope and confidence that nothing will ever arise to change his slogan of HONESTY FIRST, LAST AND ALL THE TIME. LITERARY l23 A TRIBUTE TO JAMES S. BOTSFORD By O. H. DEAN It is with profound sorrow that we record the death of James S. Bots- ford, who was for a long time a member of the faculty of the Kansas City School of Law and most honorably and usefully associated with the Bar of the State of Missouri. His career is typical of a vast number of American youths who at the beginning struggled against many adverse conditions, but gradually rose by high merit and great industry to positions of much honor and great worth to society and the state. Beginning as a farm boy and working for others at the smallest wages, we find him next a mere youth fighting as a soldier for the preservation of our republic. For years he endured all the dangers and hardships of the great Civil war. Finally wounded near its close, he uncomplainingly and coura- geously took up the civic work he had carefully planned for himself. With- out having the advantages of many of his associates of a collegiate and law education, he carefully made up for those dehciencies by superior diligence and lofty work. So happily was he endowed with courage, faith in himself and superior order of intelligence, and so devoted was he to the work to which he had dedicated his life, that he rose to a position which commanded the respect and confidence of all who knew him. He rose to a position of much influ- ence in the great work of the Law's administration and enforcement. He studied broadly and he read broadly. V He was devoted, as few were, to his country. He had offered his life as a sacrifice, if need be, that it might be preserved for the benefit of all man- kind-that the sacred principles upon which it 'was founded might live rather than perish in defeat and failure. His enlarged views and wide study made him keenly conscious of the great merits as well as the many dangers that constantly threaten a country resting upon popular will and controlled too often by popular passion. He profoundly believed in those few great fundamental principles in which our entire political and social structure was created. He was therefore not only a highly learned and successful lawyer, but a citizen of the type that cannot be estimated too highly. Let us rejoice that we have known him, that he was one of usg that he was a part of the history of our profession, and let us sorrow that he is with us no more. 124 THE. PANDEX 1916 HOW LAWS ARE MADE By HON. WM. P. BORLAND, M. C.. Fifth Missouri District Under the theory of our law as expounded by Blackstone the written, or statute law is made for the purpose of repealing, amending or supplement- ing the rules of the common, or unwritten, law. ln other words, the existence of a body of statutory law presupposes a body of common or customary law, which is the foundation for the statutory enactments and the guide for its in- terpretation. This is literally true in all of the states of the Union. Under our system the states are the original and general sovereigns and have unlim- ited powers of legislation save in so far as they have voluntarily curtailed those powers by the state constitution which is the express legislation of the people, or in so far as they have surrendered them by entering into the Fed- eral Union and investing certain powers in the General Government. The United States Government, in theory at least, is one of limited powers and one without the customary basis of an unwritten, or common, law, For a study of-how laws are made, the legislative body of the United States pre- sents, therefore, the best example. Congress is today the oldest legislative body in the world. This seems a startling statement and yet it is literally true. Congress has existed in its present form since 1789-one hundred and twenty-six years. The only leg- islative body now existing which was in existence at the time of the adoption of the Federal Constitution is the Parliament of England, and the whole form of that body was radically changed in 1830 by what was known as the Re- form Law, which changed the basis of representation in the House of Com- mons and took the political control out of the House of Lords and vested it in the House of Commons. It will be interesting, therefore, to study the method by which Congressional legislation is passed. Congress consists of two branches, the Senate and the House of Repre- sentatives. The Senate is composed of two Senators from each state chosen for a period of six years. The House of Representatives is composed of mem- bers chosen under the provision of the Constitution which requires that Rep- resentatives shall be apportioned among the several states in accordance with their respective population. It is customary after each decennial census to hx the basis of apportionment and each state is entitled to as many Repre- sentatives as its population contains the divisor fixed as the basis of appor- tionment. Under the census of 1900 the basis of apportionment was 191,000g under the census of 1910 it was increased to 21 1,000, but in spite of this in- crease the number of Representatives was increased from 391, under the cen- sus of 1900, to 435 under the census of 1910. The state legislature of each state is entitled to district the state for the purpose of choosing the Repre- sentatives, and if it fails to provide districts, or a sufficient number of dis- tricts, the Representatives for whom no districts are provided are elected at large. Congress has reached a size which seems rather unwieldy and sugges- tions are frequently made for reducing the number of Representatives. We must consider, however, that compared with other great legislative bodies of the world it is both actually and relatively the smallest of them all. The Brit- gg g W LITERARY I 2 5 ish House of Commons contains 667 members, representing a constituency of 45,000,000, while the American House of Representatives with its 435 mem- bers represents a population of l00,000,000. If we compare our Congress with any of the other legislative bodies we find that the disproportion is still greater. Each member of Congress represents at least two and a half times as many people as a member of any other great legislative body. The size of the Congressional body, however, makes it necessary that Congress should operate under rules of procedure. At one time these rules had become so stringent that freedom of debate was denied and it was very difficult to bring progressive measures to the test of a vote. ln the last six years the rules have been greatly liberalized and the result has been apparent in the greater free- dom of debate and the prompt action upon many great constructive meas- ures. It is impossible, however, that the rules should be so framed as to per- mit every member to speak when he chooses or to call up for passage at any time any special measure in which he may be interested. This is no more possible than it would be possible in the courts of justice for the plaintiffs attorney to try his case at any moment that it might happen to strike his fancy. ln court the advocate must be prepared to try his case when the issues are framed and the case is reached on the calendar, and very much the same procedure governs in Congress. The size of the body makes it necessary that it be subdivided into committees charged with the duty of investigating and reporting upon bills relating to a certain class of subjects. There are some 5 7 of these committees and they vary greatly in rank and importance. The two great committees indispensable to the conduct of Congress are, first, the Com- mittee on Ways and Means, which is charged with the duty of reporting bills to raise the revenue, and, second, the Committee on Appropriations, whose duty it is to expend the revenue and provide for carrying on the activities of government required by law. There are more than a dozen other commit- tees of first rank and importance, including the Committee on Military Af- fairs, the Committee on Naval Affairs, Committee on lnterstate and Foreign Commerce, Committee on Post Oflices 'and Post Roads, Committee on Agri- culture, Committee on Foreign Relations, Committee on River and Harbors, Committee on the judiciary, Committee on Banking and Currency, and a few others. Some of the committees are known as dead committees and have little or no business to do, and many of them are active only occasionally. The committees must take their regular turn upon the calendar in pre- senting business to the House, but bills coming from the Ways and Means Committee and the Appropriations Committee and appropriation bills from other committees are regarded as privileged and are entitled to be called up at any time within one day after they have been reported to the House. Any member is permitted to introduce a bill upon any subject. The bill when in- troduced, however, must be referred immediately to the committee having charge of that particular subject. The membership of these committees is sometimes of the highest importance in governing the character of legislation. A few years ago the Speaker of the House had the arbitrary power, if he chose to exercise it, of appointing all committees. Under this power he could so organize a committee as to include men favorable to a particular policy and exclude those opposed to it. This power has now been taken from the Speaker and committees are elected in open session of the House. The Dem- ocratic members of the committees are nominated in a caucus. The Repub- lican members, who are in the minority at this time, are nominated by the IZ6 THE PANDEX 1916 Republican floor leader. The purpose of this is to secure a bona fide repre- sentation of the minority on each committee, These committees are miniature legislatures and a measure must pass the appropriate committee before it even comes to the House for debate or vote. If a member introduces a bill relating, for instance, to lnterstate and Foreign Commerce, it is referred to the Committee on lnterstate and Foreign Commerce. The author of the bill, if he is sufficiently interested, can request the committee for a hearing. If the committee, or its chairman, believes that the bill not only contains some merit, but is relatively of more pressing im- portance than the hundreds of other bills that have been referred to the com- mittee at that session, it will grant a hearing to the author of the bill. It is manifestly impossible for the committee to grant a hearing upon all of the bills which are referred to it during a particular session of Congress, or even to consider them in the most formal way. The time allotted to such hearings depends upon the judgment of the chairman of the committee of the impor- tance of the measure and the public interest manifested in it. Usually the author of the bill is allotted anywhere from one hour to two days in which to present facts, evidence and arguments in support of his measure. This time he uses either in addressing the committee himself or in introducing before it business men, experts and others who can give arguments or present facts. On all important measures a hearing on the affirmative side is usually followed by those in opposition. These hearings are printed and are available after- wards for use of all members of Congress. If the author of the measure can convince the majority of the committee not only of the merits of his measure but of its relative importance over hundreds of other bills before them, they may vote to report it favorably to the House. If he can not convince them, no action is taken upon the bill and it dies in the committee. When a bill is reported to the House a written report is prepared with some care, setting forth the facts out of which the bill arose, the results intended to be accom- plished and the arguments in favor of its passage. The members of the committee opposing a favorable report have an opportunity to present an ad- verse report. These reports have often been referred to by the courts in aid of the construction of the bill if it afterwards becomes a law, to determine its meaning and scope in a doubtful case. ln this instance only the courts go be- hind the wording of the law, for it is a settled rule of construction that the debates in Congress are no evidence of the meaning of the bill, but only evi- dence of the construction placed upon it by individual members. After a bill is favorably reported it is placed on the calendar for pas- sage. If it be a privileged measure under the rules it can be called up prompt- ly. If not it must await its turn according to the time when it was placed on the calendar and the turn of the committee which reported it. All bills im- posing a tax upon the people, expending any portion of the 'Federal revenue, or creating by law any charge which must afterwards be paid out of the Fed- eral treasury, are placed upon what is known as the Union Calendar. All other bills of a general nature are placed upon what is known as the House Calendar, and bills to which there is no apparent opposition, such as bills for the construction of bridges across navigable streams, etc., may at the option of the author be placed on what is known as the Unanimous Consent Calendar. The rules provide that upon certain days of the week these various calendars shall be considered. Bills upon the Union Calendar must be considered in the Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union, a plan of par- liamentary procedure which gives a very wide latitude of debate and amend- ing N LITERARY 127 ment. When the House resolves itself into a Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union, the Speaker calls some member to the chair and the debate proceeds until the committee decides to rise and report the bill either favorably or adversely to the House. Great administration measures are frequently made exceptions to the rules: that is, a special rule is adopted governing the procedure upon that particular bill, Such special rule usually provides the length of time the debate shall proceed, fixing a definite limit to prevent filibustering. It provides also limitations upon the amendments and other limitations intended to carry out promptly and effectively the will of the majority and prevent harassing parliamentary delay on the part of the partisan minority. ln the absence of a special rule limiting the amendments all bills are open to amendment during the stage of the proceedings in which they are being read section by section. Amendments must be germane to the purpose of the bill, for an amendment which has no relation to the subject matter of the bill will be ruled out on a point of order. This is to prevent unrelated subjects from becoming mixed in a confused mass in the same law. It is a general rule also that appropriation bills shall be limited to providing the funds for carrying on activities of the Government which have been pre- viously authorized by law. An appropriation bill cannot create for the first time an activity or public expense and provide the money for it, neither can it enlarge, amend or repeal any existing law. Bills to raise the revenue must originate in the House of Representatives according to the terms of the Constitution. By analogy it is customary also that bills to expend the revenue should originate in the House of Representa- tives. All other bills may originate in either house and all bills may be amended freely in either house. After a bill has passed one branch of Con- gress it is accurately enrolled and sent to the other branch. There it goes through almost the same procedure as though it had been originally intro- duced in that branch. It must be- referred to the appropriate committee, hearings must be had, the bill may die in committee for lack of favorable interest on it, or it may be eventually reported by the committee and placed on the calendar for passage. If a bill which has passed one branch of Con- gress is amended in the other branch it must be returned in its amended form for consideration of the amendment by the branch which first passed it. If that branch concurs with other amendments it must be again returned to the other branch for consideration of the new additions, and so on indefinitely. As the sessions of Congress are too crowded with business to permit bills to be sent back and forth in this manner indefinitely, it is customary, when one branch has amended a bill passed by the other branch, for each branch to ap- point a committee of conference to reconcile if possible the disagreeing views of the houses. Conference committees are usually necessary upon all appro- priation bills and all general measures of great importance. The conferees sometimes include the author of the bill if he happens to be a member of the committee which reported it. If the author of the bill is not a member of the committee which reported it he has no right to be made a conferee, The usual way is to select the chairman of the committee which reported the bill, the second man in rank on this committee and the ranking member of the minority side of the committee. The conferees thereupon meet and agree what amendments of each house shall be accepted and what slzall be rejected. If they agree they present similar reports to each house, which upon adoption results in the passage of the bill in its final and amended form. If the con- ferees do not agree they may report the reason of their disagreement to the l28 THE PANDEX 1916 house which they represent and the house can instruct them either to recede from or insist upon the position taken. If no agreement is possible between the conferees the house may appoint a new set of conferees if it chooses or the bill may fail. The position of conferee upon a great measure is one of tremendous importance because as the session draws to a close and business becomes crowded, upon the will and judgment of one or two men depends the fate of important measures. A conferee can shape the final form of the measure. ln all of the committees length of service is an important point in determin- ing the members' rights, power and influence. A new member when ap- pointed upon a committee takes the lowest rank. He gradually advances towards the head of the committee if he retains his place in Congress and on that committee. The rapidity with which he advances depends upon the num- ber of the men above him who are defeated, die or resign from the commit- tee to accept other positions. ln the course of time he gets to be the ranking member of the committee on his side of the house. lf his party is in the ma- jority he gets to be chairman. If his party is in the minority he becomes the ranking member of the committee on the minority side. When 'an important bill is before Congress the chairman of the com- mittee which reported it has the right to control debate under the rules, and by custom he yields half of the time allotted for debate to the ranking mem- ber of the minority party. These two leaders parcel out, each on his own side, the time thus under his control, and thus the successful management of a bill through the House depends upon the experience, ability and tact of the chairman who has it in charge. A successful assault upon a bill depends upon the generalship of the leader of the opposition. No member can gain the floor to speak on the bill without the consent of those who have control of the time in debate, and the manner in which this time is parceled out depends upon a multitude of rules, customs and precedents having to do with the place which the member who attempts to speak has attained in the House. A mem- ber of the committee is always recognized over an outsider, an older member is recognized in preference to a newer memberg a member is always recog- nized in opposition to the last man who has spoken, so that the sides may alternate if possible. After a bill has successfully passed both houses it is presented to the President for his approval or disapproval. When he approves it it becomes a law. If he disapproves it he may, if he chooses, give the reasons and re- turn it to the house in which it originated. It then has privilege for immediate consideration ahead of all other business. The question is then put: Shall the bill be passed, the President's veto to the contrary notwithstanding? If two-thirds vote in the affirmative the bill is passed over the Presidenfs veto and sent to the other house for their consideration. If a similar result occurs there the bill becomes a law without the President's signature. This is the method by which laws are made in the Federal Congress. Theoretically it justifies any one of the 435 members in introducing and pass- ing any measure on any subject, but practically it places the control of legis- lation not only in the party which is in the majority in Congress, but in the hands of the elder statesmen in that party, those who have served long enough upon important committees to have reached the position of chairman of that of conferees. These men, while they have the power in their hands, must necessarily consult other experienced members of their committees in order to have the loyalty and support of the committee in their contests upon the floor. . LITERARY 129 It sometimes happens that a committee chairman is abandoned at a critical moment by members of his own committee and the position which he has taken is defeated by the House. Usually, however, if the chairman of a com- mittee which has carefully considered a measure is loyally supported by the leading members of his committee he has the support also, as a matter of course, of the members of Congress of his party, who have a right to assume that he has given more careful consideration to the matter than they could possibly give. ln the case of doubt, therefore, they lean towards supporting the leader on their side. Where there is a doubt about the conflicting views of the members on the same side of the House upon a particular measure it is customary to call a meeting of the members of that party to formulate their views. This is called a caucus. lt has no official sanction. ln the past it has usually been secret, but now the tendency is that it shall be more open to the public and the press. The only advantage of a caucus is to reconcile if pos- sible the views of all members of a party and produce harmonious and ef- fective legislation. If the members of the party as a whole believe in certain principles of legislation but differ as to details which may be relatively unim- portant, it would weaken the entire party and weaken the Government for them to engage in a destructive cross-fire among themselves over mere de- tails. The whole measure might go down to defeat and with it the adminis- tration in power. No man is compelled to go into a caucus against his will and in at least one of the great national parties a member can always excuse himself from being bound by the action of the caucus on either of two grounds: First, that the proposed measure conflicts with his view of the Federal Consti- tution, and second, that he has made contrary promises to his constituents. If a member does not excuse himself in the caucus he is expected in good faith to support the measure agreed upon when it comes up on the floor of the House. It is possible to make a caucus a measure of petty tyranny or it is possible to make it by open and free discussion an useful means of securing harmonious and effective action. This is a general outline of the methods now pursued in the Federal Congress to enact legislation. These methods are the result of a century and a quarter of experience, but each session of Congress adds to the experience and enlarges the views of statesmen as to the best method of securing the will of the people through a set of representatives. The methods gradually change as a more universal participation in political affairs is placed Within the reach of the average voter. THE PANDEX l9I6 THE PROVINCE OF THE LAW By ELMER N.

A - LITERARY I 31 WOMAN AND THE LAW By HARRIET WARE BROOKS, 'I6 Woman has been a long time daring to venture beyond the doors of her home, alone into the business world, for fear the wolf would eat her, as it did Little Red Riding Hoody but now that the advance guard of brave ones has ventured forth, and has not been eaten, the following hosts of women are steadily pressing forward, claiming more and more their rights, some of which may be their rights, and some not, but however that may be, they are coming, and the world might just as well make ready for them. Woman's ability to hold her own in all the different professional fields has been doubted, tested, and proved out to her success. She has, perhaps, made as little progress in law as in any other field, for here she has met with the most determined opposition and scant welcome. Julia Marlowe's wonderful impersonation of Portia brought storms of applause from box to gallery, but let Portia be loosed from Miss Marlowe's personality, let her step out from the play, loose her from a cause abetted by race hatred on the side of Antonio, and by centuries of persecution and hate on the part of Shylock, loose her from the romance of medieval Venice from the witchery of music, love and moonlight, put her in the modern court room with homely walls and dirty floors, and air perfumed with tobacco smioke, and the applauding audience is amazed, speechless-some incredulous, some indignant, a few believing-a woman really trying to practice law! No less an authority than the Royal Professor of Law at Harvard Uni- versity recommends the study of law for women of wealth and leisure who are interested in social and labor reforms in factories, mills, tenements, juve- nile courts, etc. He thinks a knowledge of the law protecting these condi- tions will greatly aid these women, and will command for them a more will- ing and attentive hearing from the powers that be. On the strength of this conviction there has been established at Cam- bridge, Massachusetts, the first woman's law school in the world. Women have fought long and desperately for admission to the law de- partments of the great universities, and often in vaing but this battle has been a mere skirmish compared with that to obtain admission to the bar. There are only about a thousand women lawyers in the United States, and of these lesslthan a hundred are licensed to practice in the United States Supreme Court. The woman who has done most to make a place for women in the prac- tice of law is Mrs. Belva Lockwood, who worked twenty-eight years to gain admission to practice in the Supreme Court of the United States. Her first petitions were absolutely turned down, later the judges modified their re- fusal by saying that they must wait until public opinion was more favorable to the idea of a woman lawyer. ln H379 Mrs. Lockwood succeeded in persuading Congress to pass a bill whereby any woman of good moral character, otherwise duly qualified, shall, upon presentation, be admitted to practice in the Supremle Court of the United States. President Hayes signed the bill, and the victory was won. Among the most prominent woman lawyers, and of all lawyers, are Miss King of Chicago, who holds a nationwide reputation as a patent lawyer: 132 i THE PANDEX I9l6 Marrilla M. Ricker, as widely known as a criminal lawyer, and who holds the distinction of being the only woman to sit on the bench with the Lord Chief justice of Englanclg Laura DeFord Gordon, and Clara Shortridge Foltz, emi- nent as corporation lawyersg about two score might be named who have won a just and honored distinction in the practice of law, and show the attain- ment possible to the coming woman lawyer. To attain success in the practice of law the average woman has more to unlearn, more to learn, and more to overcome than the average man. Per- haps the greatest obstacle in her way is that she is shut out by choice, by na- ture, and by a large measure of necessity from the rough and tumble and the push and thrust of everyday life. She will have to pocket her timidity and partake of a large portion of this experience, bitter as it may taste, to give her level-headed judgment, to create a sense of fairness and justice where now are apt to be sentiment and emotion, to teach her to be accurate, careful and exact, where now she trusts too much to her intuition, to hear correctly and quickly, to be slow in response and quick in retort. When she has wrought these and other miracles in her normal nature- and she can and will-the womanly woman, who never loses her temper nor forgets her dignity, and who knows her subject will command respect and attention wherever she seeks a hearing and will have the same chance to win as a man. ' If she fails, a grinning world will say, I told you so , but if she wins, it will shout, I always knew she would! t 1 LITERARY ,, YYYUY Y Y V DOWER-WHAT IF- By H. E.

A thorough technical training is without doubt a prime requisite to the successful prosecution of the profession of law, but there is another essential that is equally important that is often ignored and lightly considered. It is a knowledge of the science of salesmanship. For every man is a salesman whether he is selling goods or service, and his success will be measured by his ability as a salesman. He must be able to make permanent and profitable patrons-thus, a lawyer must be able to both get and keep a following of profitable clients if he is to be a true business builder, Wide acquaintance among the right class of people is of little value if the lawyer lacks the sales ability to make clients of them. Business building, of which salesmanship is an important factor, is an exact science governed by rules that are as universally applicable as rules of law. The fundamental truths underlying the broad science of salesmanship are always present wherever two men meet for the purpose of transacting business. Consciously or unconsciously, every man puts into practice some of the rules of salesmanship every working day of his life. The study and thought which he gives to the art of selling will be the measure of his success. ln the words of a well known educator, Success is the attainment and preservation of a legitimate and practicable ideal. There are four things essential to this success: 'First, health, second, sufficient money, third, de- served honor born of the approbation of one's fellow meng fourth, the ability to harmonize with one's environments. The right kind of success, the per- manent success we deserve, cannot be acquired by seeking one of the essen- tials, but all must be worked for. Gaining money and what it will buy does not alone constitute success for the normal man. Adopting it as a final goal is selecting a standard far short of what can and ought to be accomplished. Money, if for nothing else, is needed for a self-respecting, honorable mainte- nance. The acquiring of it is a legitimate and natural function of a business man, but too close pursuit will defeat its own object, and extracting from each deal every dollar which the traffic will bear, while productive of imme- diate results, is destructive to the building .of a permanent business or practice. The keynote of modern successful business is service, and in the final analysis the science of business is the science of service. He who serves best profits most and the master merchant and the master lawyer is always a mas- ter servant. The results obtained by the conscious application of the rules of prac- tical business psychology are remarkable, and anyone may become reason- ably expert in the art if he is willing to devote himself to the study of it. Why does the jury sometimes reject the plea of the able and eloquent orator with perhaps the best side of the case and find with the lawyer of simple speech and unassuming manner? One speech was psychologically correct and constructed to appeal to that particular jury-the other was not. It is also necessary that every business man and successful lawyer shall study himself, for every person has in his character many positive or success characteristics and many negative or failure characteristics. Ir is by building ggggggggg V LITERARY 135 up the strength and number of positives and eliminating the negatives that the man capable of success is produced. To eliminate a negative, cultivate the corresponding positive. For every person has in himself the potential suc- cess qualities and all that they need is development and education. Each man should study and analyze his own character to the end that the positive suc- cess qualities, such as earnestness, decision, initiative and self-reliance, may be developed to the marked degree required for success. A persistent con- scious effort will be needed, but it is sure to be effective. The all important thing, however, is to locate the weeds in our gardens and get busy cultivating the useful plants, which will not only choke out the weeds, but bear the fruits of high service, great value and true success, THE PANDEX I9 I 6 I WANT TO BE A LAWYER By WALTER E.

O'DONNELL, 'IB I thought at first he would kick me out of the office: but, apparently he thought better of it, for he coaxed a half grin, doubled up his fist and told me to Set down! I am from the Law School Why did you leave the farm? I beg your pardon, sirg I'm not a farmer, I said with some dignity. Well, after you're a lawyer a while you'lI wish to goodness you were a farmer Cwith a chucklej. Now, what do you want? Your views on 'Preparedness', said I. Every case I have is most thoroughly prepared. Preparation is the key- note to success. Remember this, young man, the man who prepares the most, gets there first every time. Don't stand around and wait for someone to kick you, Kick him first, and kick where it hurts. If you loaf like most young men do and let the other folks dig out the facts, you'll come in a poor second. Be on the job all the time in I mean, I managed to interrupt, I want your views on 'Preparedness for War'. Oh, preparedness for war, eh? Well, why didn't you say so! Young man, remember this, whenever a lawyer says anything, he should mean what he says, and say what he means. You've apparently got to learn that yet. Also you've got to think what you say, for sometimes you ought to say what you don't really think. Get me? Now, you're welcome to my views on war. I think that war is hell, and I won't have anything to do with it. I would ad- vise you to read the magazines. I-Ie turned and began most industriously to dictate to his stenographer about a crazy man who killed a book agent. Thank you, sir, said I, as I moved toward the door. Thank you, very much indeed. I'm very glad to have met you and hope we'll meet again-H After the war! he added as I went out. I was thoroughly peeved and a good deal ashamed for some reason. Shoot this article on preparedness! Why should I bother my head about it. I went out and took a street car for home: went two blocks, and woke from a gray study to find I was going the wrong direction. I got off in front of the Commerce Building. Then I thought of a certain lVIr. Jones who was considered a great lawyer, and who had known my father slightly. He was the one to go to-he would tell me. So I went up. He was sitting in his inner office when I opened the door, with the mid- dle door open, his back to the window and his feet propped up on his desk. A thick cloud of smoke was around him. No one else was there. Howdy do, sir, said I heartily. His feet slid off the desk and his cigar flew across the room. He put his thumb in the ink well, His left foot hit the spittoon and it rolled across the floor. H Why the devil don't you knock, man! Couldn't you see I was asleep? I beg your pardon, sir, said I. I couldn't see you for the smoke. I38 THE PANDEX l9l6 He took a new blotter and scrubbed his thumb. I waited a moment for him to cool off. l'm from the Kansas City School of Law, said I, and I want your views on preparedness for WAR! Preparedness for WAR, eh? For WAR! Well, if you enter my pri- vate ofhce again like that, you'l! get war, and my views at the same time. By the way', though, and his brow cleared somewhat, that's a pretty good illustration of the fix of the United States at the present day-sound asleep! Uust like I was.J And some day some low-browed thief will come tramping in without knocking fjust like you didj. Sound asleep in the smoke of our own dreams and theories. That's what we are. Red ink will never win a battle, neither will hot air. What we need is men to do something to prepare to kick the other fellow out when he comes marching in without leave. I believe in preparedness fonly I've got the gout in my right foot, and that's the one I usej. I believe every man ought to be a trained soldier, al- ways ready for war and we ought to have more large guns, better, faster ships and submarines. Oh, l'm for preparing for war all right, only our young men now-a-days haven't the fight we used to have--Know, if it wasn't for this confounded gout, I'd show you-D l'm sorry I disturbed your slumber, !VIr. Smith, said i. I do my sleeping home, you know, and so- Never you mind! he interrupted. lVIy time 'is valuable, dollars are passing every minute I waste time on you. Call again. After the war! said I, as I shut the door behind me. l'm glad he had the gout. I'd not have tried a third time, if it had not been for I. IVI. Green. I met him on the steps and like a fool told him about my visits. Go to old Colonel Dummit in the Non-kick building CI believe that was the name-it sounded like I felt, anywayj So I went to the Colonel. I-Ie was a large man with a red nose, and chin whiskers. Is this Colonel Dammit? said I. He looked at me a moment and burst out in a loud laugh. lf you was anything else, said he, l'd get mad. Dummit, man, Dummit is my name. I beg your pardon, I returned humbly. I thought it was Dam-Dum- mit, I should say. I'm from the Kansas City School of Law. We haven't anything just at the present time, l'm sorry to say. Just hired a new stenographer, and that fills out help.-H I did not come for work, said I. Oh, said he, rubbing his hands together heavily, and beaming joyously over his red nose.

Could we fight independently and live as a nation? Yes, we could. What did Washington do to England? Nearly every page in American history shows records of a man leaving the plow handles and defeating the regulars at their own game.

Good-by. fl meant it too., l 7 LITERARY l4I When the Americans found out that the majority of the people desired their own race as the controlling power of the islands the government then established the Philippine Legislature in 1907, as it was called, which mem- bers were to be chosen from the different provinces in proportion to the popu- lation, exempting the non-Christian provinces, which constitutes only a very small per cent of the entire citizens. The first administration which the Philippine Assembly showed to the American government was a wonder, so the Republican party which was then the controlling power at that time, their unsuspecting prejudices were wiped out. lt continued to be in existence and from election to election has become more and more successful, because they are working not as grafters but are working for the progress and welfare of the Filipino people. ln connection with the Philippine Assembly they also established a higher l-louse through which all laws that are being drafted by the Philippine Assembly are ap- proved by this House. It consisted of eight members, five of which were Americans and three Filipinos, but today the government has not abolished this House but has given five positions for the Filipinos and three for the Americans. It must also be remembered that there are two resident com- missioners in the United States working for the interests of the Filipino people at large. Honorable lVl. l... Quezon, one of the commissioners who is now in the United States, has shown that he is not only an educated man but he is putting all his efforts in fighting for the liberty of his people. Many expres- sions had come from the different tongues of the members of the House of Representatives as well as the Senate of this great Republic concerning the legibility and capability of this most distinguished Filipino citizen. The Fili- pinos owe all these above mentioned from the unceasing efforts of the Ameri- can people. The writer, therefore, firmly believes not before long that through the aid and guarantee of this great Republic the aspiration of the Filipino people for independence will soon be granted. The American people will uphold the Declaration of Independence in its assertion that all men are created equal and to vindicate the people's government for the people and by the people.

Tread on the constitution of Oklahoma just once and watch Dan Washburn make a March hare look like a Persian tom-cat on a Hotel Muehlebach divan. Few juniors can work up as much en- thusiasm over the subject of bankruptcy as Thomas H. Reynolds would have them be- lieve is contained in the course. After all the suggestions on a given point have been discarded as unsatisfactory, in all probability George Miller will have one to offer that won't do either. The first of the month is not an auspi- cious time to try and convince the student body that Elmer Powell is the man who put the Melee in neleemosynaryf' R. lngraham is different from most lecturers. He admits a fellow can con- nect with a little compensation if he is a good municipal corporation lawyer. The fact that Hon. O. H. Dean rides home after his lecture in a high power motor car serves as an invigorating stimu- lant in the study of corporation law. When you see Roi Trotter come in the door, look again in three minutes and the chances are you'll see him going out. He's good at coming in and turning 'round. Having been in the fice for several years, inactivity on his part clients will give john lies. judge Fyke gives a good deal of en- couragement in his lecture during the six weeks' Insurance course. He insinuates that all juries are anxious to soak the com- pany. There's only one rival to judge Ladd's Real Property lectures, and that's the stories he tells at the banquets, and he don't let the moss grow on the backs of either. Frank Hedrick often rushes in with a Kansas statute where even the most san- guine fear to tread. lt's pretty easy in most instances to get by with a Kansas statute. ,lay M. Lee establishes a pretty fair repu- tation as a case citer in Criminal Law, but the real big league case citers are doing business under the firm name of Seehorn :Sc Todd. , Speaking of forging ahead1Byron Win- gert has this year acquired a license to practise law, a wife and a pair of SPEC- tacles.

Knox Alexander also has the distinction of being absent more times than any other Senior in captivity. Paul Koontz was vice-president of the class the first year and since that time has served earnestly, faithfully and uninter- ruptedly as squashing material for the steam roller. Bill Carson has a firmly rooted idea that another able seaman will be added to the crew of the Ship of State immediately upon the granting of his license by the Kansas bar examiners. Whenever Jack Gage conducts a quiz he not only covers the lecture, cases, text book and foot notes, but hte also brings out a few points involving the doctrine of common sense. If a bank president could hear Bob Tucker rally to the defense of soulless cor- porations in general,' the chances are he would make room for Tuck, by joining the Salvation Army. Considerable respect is due to Frank Howe. He brought a good-looking girl to class on the night of a written quiz, thereby eliminating the embarrassment of an epi- demic of flunkitis. Harry Schwartz is afraid of microbes in the school's drinking cup notwithstanding the fact that a microbe who could survive the three-year grind ought to be entitled to one or two victims. As far as Lou Douglas is concerned per- sonally, there is about the same distinction between a corporation de jure and a cor- poration de facto as there is between tweedledum and tweedledee.

Why not set aside the excess in the treas- ury for the renting of an auditorium for Oscar May, and thereby prevent the clog- ging of the wheels of justice in the P. Courts by extensive argument? If there is anything in the world that ought to be subject to the police power of the state that ain't, it's the contortionistic propensities of the Adam's Apple. or at least so thinks Harmon Watkins.

Robertson refuses to tell what the stands for, and to make the mystery deeper someone has trotted out the fact that B is for Breathitt, so why wonder at his popularity with the fair sex? Wm. E. Byers announced the examina- tion in Partnership would cover the course, and subsequent events not only bore him out as to latitude and longitude but left the impression that he knew where- of he spoke. Ed Gardner, who used to rope cattle in Colorado, has adopted a more ethical method in his law practice. A pinch of salt and approach cautiously from the rear -you know-they used to say birds could be caught that way. While judge Seehorn removes his glasses almost as many times during a lecture as does Senator Cooper, the Senator can put it all over the judge when it comes to giv- ing evidence of excruciating mental agony during the operation. Clarence Elliott didn't hesitate the least bit in demanding that the male element of the class come forward and be measured for gowns, but when it came to the female contingent-well, he always has been a modest sort of a cuss. Being a strong believer in the Safety First doctrine, Carl Willbrand, when in- stalled as sergeant-at-arms, pledged himself to keep everyone in the room, thereby leav- ing the innuendo to take care of those in need of being put out. Congressman Borland gave the class the first lecture in the school on the subject of contracts. He delivered the first lecture in the Senior year on Wills. Who knows but that he may give some of us our first com- mittee assignment in the House? ln addition to being a son-in-law of the Baptist Church, as well as a disciple of the multiple descendant doctrine, John B. Pew has other accomplishments. He can tell a story so close to the border line it challenges the attention of the Senior Class. ln all probability the case of Hutton v. The Belle of the Blue Ridge Mountains will go to the jury the coming summer. jack's making preparations for another trip to Vir- ginia, and he'll never stand to be kicked out on a demurrer to the jurisdiction. Why boast of achievements before a jus- tice of the peace? Floyd Stratton has hit the bass drum a couple of taps and made his debut in the Federal Court. He didn't stay long, of course, but stood by the ship until a regular attorney arrived. According to joe Duffy's interpretation of the law, if a man is taken to a hospital unconscious and is singed by a nurse with a hot water bottle he is guilty of contribu- tory negligence, the doctrine of caveat emp- tor being rigidly applied in these cases. of course. Not being content with two prizes out of the Freshman Class in his first year, it seems to be the purpose of Frank McQuaid to return to the initial room long enough to establish a reputation in the matrimonial handicap-to the extreme disgust of one Louis Goessy. Dave Dabbs, having rendered valuable party in the assistance to the Republican city campaign, will now take the Chautau- qua platform in an effort to explain The Relation of the Submarine to the Common or Garden Variety of Houseboat, and the Subsequent Consequences. Not being content with his able and con- scientious efforts toward saving the coun- try by making laws at jeff City, Frank Wil- kinson comes back in the off year and rubs 'em in viva voce, as well as by means of that ancient and barbarous instrument of torture known as the Written Quiz. Most any lawyer can read a lecture. of course, but let it be said that few can read a lecture as continuously, uninterruptedly and at such an accelerated speed as judge Willard P. Hall. Not only should he be given the belt and awarded such medals as necessary, but his pre-eminence should be established by statute in Missouri.

Tichenor- If you know that a man is from the South, don't ask him whether he is from Virginia or Kentucky, for if he is from either state he will promptly inform you, and if he is not, don't humiliate him by inquiring about it. Ladd- In this course of lectures we can, of course, cover only a very small part of the law of real property, but I have been very careful that what I have stated is the law, and you can rely upon what E have said. l have been very careful not to mislead you. Byers- There are two qualities that are indispensable in a lawyer. The first is ab- solute honesty. No lawyer can achieve any place without that. The other is courtesy.

Mein Gott, came the reply, take a.. appeal at once, young man. -E. N. Powell. ,i Senior: What is that peculiar odor? .TUQIOYI Qh, that's rubberg some little Freshie got his neck too near the stove. A Senior: See that little leaflet blown by the breezelet Hoating on the wavelet. His Sister: You had better go out in the back yardlet and soak your headlet under the pumplet. 1Ex. IThe following will from the probate rec- ords of Cook County, lllinois, was left by 3 Young lawyer, who died in the alms- house.l l, Charles Lounsberry, being of sound and disposing mind and memory, do hereby make and publish this, my last will and testament. in order, as justly as may be, to distribute my interest in the world among those succeeding me: I That part of my interest which is known in law and recognized in the sheep-bound volumes as my property, being inconsider- able and of no account, l make no dis- tribution of this in my will. My right to live, being but a life estate, is not at my disposal, but, these things excepted. all else in the world l now proceed to devise and bequeath. ltem: l give to good fathers and moth- ers, in trust for their children, all good lit- tle words of praise and encouragement and all quaint pet names and endearments, and l charge said parents to use them justly, but generously, as the needs of their chil- dren shall require. ltem: l leave to children inclusively, but only for the term of their childhood, all and every flower of the field and blossoms of the woods, with the right to play among them freely, according to the customs of children, warning them at the same time against th-istles and thorns. And l devise to children the banks of the brooks and the golden sands beneath the waters thereof. and the odors of the willows that dip there- in, and the white clouds that fioat high over the giant trees. And l leave the children the long, long days to be merry in a thousand ways, and the night and the train of the Milky Way to wonder at, but subject, nevertheless, to the rights hereinafter given to lovers. ltem: l devise to boys, jointly, all the useful, idle fields, all pleasant waters where one may swim, all snow-clao hills where one magtcoast, and all streams and ponds where one may fish, or where, when grim winter comes. one may skate, to hold the same for the period of their boyhood, and all meadows with clover blossoms and but- terliies thereof: the woods with their ap- purtenances, the squirrels and the birds, the echoes and strange noises and all distant places 'vhich may be visitant, together with I66 THE PANDEXI9l6 the advantages there found. And l give to said boys each his own place at the Hre- side at night, with all pictures that may be seen in the burning wood. to enjoy without let or hindrance, and without any incum- brance or care. ltem: To lovers l devise their imaginary world, with whatever they may need, as the stars of the sky, the red roses by the wall, the bloom of the hawthorne, the sweet strains of music and au-ght else that they may desire to figure to each other the last- infness and beauty of their love. Item: To young men, jointly, l devise and bequeath all boisterous and inspiring sports of rivalry, and l give to them the disdain of weakness and undauntecl confi- dence in their own strength. Though they are rude, l leave to them the power to make lasting friendships, and of possessing com- panions, and to them, exclusively, I give all merry songs and grave choruses to sing with lusty voices. ltem: And to those who are no longer children or youths or lovers, l leave mem- ory, and bequeath to them the volumes of the poems of Burns and Shakespeare and of other poets, if there be others, to the end that they may live the old days over again, freely and fully, without tithe or diminution. ltem: To our loved ones with snowy crowns, l bequeath the happiness of old age, the love and gratitude of their chil- dren until they fall asleep.
