PUXVELI. gn 1 QM' K D222 - Elmer N. 1511111211 ONORABLE ELNTER N. POWELL was one of the founders of the Kansas TH' City School of Law. He, together with Judge F. M. Black, O. H. Dean, Judge E. L. Scarritt, Sanford B. Ladd, J. W. Snyder, W. P. Borland, R. J. Ingraham, H. Harkless, Judge E. H. Stiles and E. D. Ellison, organized the school in 1895. hir. Powell was the hrst secretary, and he now holds the position of secretary and treasurer, and is lecturer on the subject of Partner- ship and Domestic Relations. lylr. Powell was born at Farmington, Delaware, on September 9, 1869. He received his early education at the Delaware public schools, the Wilmington Con- ference Academy of Dover, Delaware, and supplemented this with a year at johns Hopkins University and then engaged in educational work as schoolmaster at Vernon, Delaware, and afterwards as principal of the Hillsboro, Maryland, High School. He came to Kansas City in 1890 and afterwards attended the law department of the University of Kansas, from which institution he graduated with the degree of LL.B. in 1895 as valedictorian of his class, and the summer thereafter became a member of the firm of Powell 8: Powell, the name of the firm being now Powell 8: Kurtz. He was the flrst president of the Law Students Club, organized in 1892, prom- inent in the old East Side Literary Club. He is a Mason, a member of the Uni- versity Club, the Knife and Fork Club, and a member of the American Bar Counsel from hlissouri. Owing to his personal popularity, ability and genius for work, lX'1r. Powell has without doubt been elected to the presidency of more prominent public organizations than any other man of his age in Kansas City. He has in addition to several minor organizations, been president of the Kansas City Bar Association, of the old Kansas City Law Club, of the alumni of Beta Theta Pi, the Missouri Republican Club, Phi Delta Phi alumni chapter Cfour termsb, and is president of Province V1 of this legal fraternity. Nlr. Powell is characterized by unreserved geniality, integrity, activity and the broadest liberality in his business, social and political relations, possessing besides a keen sense of humor, consequently his unsought part in public affairs and civic functions at large. The only political office ever held by him was that of Assessor and Collector of VVater Rates in hflayor NeH's well-remembered business men,s administration of 1894. In this he was very much in the public eye by reason of his successful fight for cheaper water rates for the people. He declined a second term in this office. offered him by Nlayor Beardsley, since his law practice required his undi- vided attention. Klr. Powell has stood for the highest ideals in his chosen profession, and is an able and successful lawyer. He was married on October 19, 1897, to Nliss Illga L. Herbel of Jacksonville, Illinois, and Nlr. and hlrs. Powell have been blessed with a daughter, Bliss Dorothea D. Powell. ,gf ilkrrultg HON. OLIYICR H.

HRRYEY TAYLOR thleticj .Q,,fj1j.5 pass from this section of our book with but the dismal comment of the foregoing page, would be a sad and unjust commentary upon this most interesting phase of scholastic life. l,est those who peruse these M' pages are led to believe that athletics met disastrous fate at the hands of the Lawyers, be it known that he once lived among us and flourished. The giant, satiated by the spoils of his many victories, has been laid reverently to rest, to rise again when there are new lields to conquer. Time was when the students of the several seminaries of learning in Kansas City were wont to flaunt before us the declaration oftheir supremacyin physical prowess. They will not soon forget the stinging defeat administered to them by the Law. The final Verdict was reached in 1915 and judgment rendered in favor of the Lawyers, from which said judgment no appeal has ever been taken nor even so much as a motion for a new trial. The Lawyers, being nocturnal in their habits, were never able nor did they attempt to compete in football, baseball or any of those activities, which, from their Very nature must be prosecuted between sunsg but in the limelight of the basketball court, their pre-eminence is undisputed. The following calendar is hereby submitted as evidence, corresponding to the allegations of the petition and confined to the point in issue. These victories are also cumulative. Corroboratiye evidence, tending to strengthen and confirm the pleadings, will be found on the following page. XY. K. STr:w,xRT, '17. fbifte- Dec. Dec. Jan. -lan. Jan. Jan.

Nfen of learning and culture of this day have been prone to min'mize eloquence as an accomplishment unnecessary, and we are often confronted with the statement that strong emotional expressions may Well be consigned to the Lost Arts. But it may be said with all earnestness that as long as the human heart responds to human emotions just so long will men continue to be swayed and led by the eloquence of their fellow-men. Lawyers, who through their eloquent speeches are able to influence the minds of the jurors and the courts, often gain the verdict even against the learning and wisdom of the less forceful speaker. There is much truth in the statement that it is not so much what one says as the manner in which he says it.', Four years ago the students of the Kansas City School of Law, realizing the necessity of proficiency in argument before entering upon the practice of their chosen profession, organized a summer debating club. Through their persevering efforts the club was placed upon a solid foundation and the results and accom- plishments passed on to their successors. One cannot go on without saying that the club of 1915 was most fortunate in having for its president one of the best organizers and most accomplished gen- tlemen who has ever passed through the Kansas City School of Law during the twenty-two years of its history, Mr. Rubey Hulen. It was through the earnest efforts of this one man that the club has progressed through the last two years of its history with great success. Led on by the inspiration given by their predecessors the members of the club of 1916 took up their task and tried to continue the excellent work commenced by the former classes. The success attained was not due to the efforts of any one man but by and through the hearty co-operation of the entire faculty and student body of the school. Nlay 1 add, much praise must be given to the members of the faculty for their generous support of the club, not only in a financial Way but through their contributions to the success of the programs. We were favored, much to our delight, with the presence of the feminine members of the school. Their beauty, charm and modesty gave tone and poise to the surroundings and frequently were the restraining influence to stronger ex- pressions that might otherwise have been used during the periods when the at- mosphere that compassed us was somewhat heated. By the consent and most earnest support of the faculty the club was able to organize a Law School Debating Team to represent us against the universities of this vicinity during the school year. VVe were fortunate in finding representatives for our team who are men of learning, culture and refinement, and who always keep in mind that much strength is gained by self-possession and pose. We can look forward with much confidence to the results of the coming debates knowing that whatever may be the outcome, our boys will carry our banner with honor to themselves and to the school. The class of 1917 passes on into the battle of life feeling confident that the suc- ceeding class will continue the good work which we have attempted. Some of us, in the nature of things, may fall by the waysideg others will go on to eminence and renown but all will go on bearing the influence of our splendid training gained through the untiring efforts of the faculty to whom we owe a debt of gratitude, and none will forget that he is a man. Our only hope is that something has been accomplishedg something done that will be an inspiration and a guide to classes that are to follow. Men may pass away but institutions live on. -Louif N. ,Goeffy ,I7 'H fl' -91- Eehating HE year 1916-17 saw the return of Debating to the Kansas City School of Law. In the early part of October a few of those interested in de- bating called a meeting in the Senior room for the purpose of testing the attitude of the student body toward a school team. The attendance was greater than even the most ardent supporters contemplated and the result was a resolution providing for a school team and the election of a committee. This committee was not charged with an easy task, but instead the work they undertook was almost impossible. To install debating in a school that had not had a team for three years, to arrange for the selection of a team, to secure debates with other schools, and above all to rally the student body to the supportof a team was a task that might receive the insane indorsement of a freshmen, but would hardly receive the sanction of the cool judgment of a senior, however, the men who had started the work were not to be daunted by circumstances and consequently in due time a try-out was held and a team selected. At the invitation of the faculty, lVlr. Holmes, principal of Central High School, Professor XY. A. Lewis of the Polytechnic Institute, and our own Jack Hutton were charged with the selection of the team. About eighteen students tried out and at the end of a three hour's try-out the judges announced their opinion. Evans of the senior class, Wiilson of the junior class, and Sanders of the freshman class were declared members of the debating team of the Kansas City School of Law for the year 1916-17. We now had a team but as yet no debates. Through the assistance of Dean Ellison, the school sent letters to twelve of the Colleges of Missouri and Kansas asking for debates for the present year. The result was disappointing as only one had an open date, but, nevertheless, each one expressed a desire for a debate for the ensuing year. Baker University of Baldwin, Kansas, was the school that accepted our chal- lenge. Of the subjects submitted, Baker chose Minimum VVage,l' giving us the affirmative side. The result of our connection with this University was entirely satisfactory both to our faculty and the members of our team, all expressing the hope that we shall have the pleasure of another debate next year. As the date of the Baker Hskirmishl' was not set until April 14th, the faculty and members of our team, wishing to take advantage of all preparedness methods available, arranged a joint debate with Kansas City University upon the same subject. Sanders of the Freshman class, together with Imes of the Senior class composed the affirmative team. Evans of the Senior class and VVilson of the Jun- ior class made up our negative team and journeyed to the University. The opinion -92- fgv,-f . 1 x of the judges seemed to lean towards the affirmative as both teams won by un- aminous decisions. For next year our faculty has hopes of a larger number of students participat- ing in this very necessary training to a lawyer. Nothing is more of an aid to a student of the law than the ability to debate. His success in this line will probably be the measure of his success in actual practice. Recognizing the handicap of a late start this year, the faculty is going to ar- range our debates for the ensuing year during the summer. It is their desire to have four joint debates with leading colleges of hlissouri and Kansas, thus making it necessary for us to have an afflrmative and a negative team. A try-out will be held early in October and Dean lillison will be disappointed if a large number do not participate. It will be your chance of gaining eXperience,4experience that will probably bear fruit in some exigency whereby you may be able to turn the tide of an important case in your favor. 4E. D.

Through the assistance of Nfr. Oliver H. Dean, President ofthe School, music was secured, the first number being the Stein Song. The Club made its debut at the home of Nfr. Dean, February 4, 1917, where the greatest hospitality was shown the members of the club who are very grateful to Mr. Dean for the many courtesies he has shown them, especially in opening his home for them for practice every Sunday. Great credit is due lWr. Dean as it was through his efforts the School was enabled to have a Glee Club. The first public appearance was made at the VVashington Birthday Banquet. Several songs were rendered which added much to the enjoyment of the evening. The most successful and pleasing entertainment so far this year was given at the home of lV1r. Dean on the evening of March 25th. The program was varied by piano solos, readings and vocal solos. Rlr. Ladd gave a short talk on the ad- vantages to be derived from membership in the Club and Mr. Pollock of the Junior Class added to the jollity of the occasion by applying excerpts from the songs to members of the Club. Mr. Dean had invited many guests to the musical and they seemed to enjoy it very much judging from their demonstrations. 1t remained for Mr. Runion to crown the event by the presentation of the Glee Club's picture to Mr. Dean. The evening of the debate with Baker University, the Club again rendered several numbers, which added very much to an otherwise enjoyable evening. Sev- eral encores were given, which bears testimony to the fact that all enjoyed hearing the songs. If the past is a criterion, the success of the Glee Club is assured. A business manager has been elected, and a concert tour is contemplated for the summer. Some arrangements have already been made, dates have been set and we only await the arrival ofthe time to show the folks ofthe neighboring country the talent of the Glee Club of the Kansas City School of Law. The girls have been elected honorary members and it was in part through them that we were spurred on to greater efforts by their attendance upon us at our various meetings at Mr. Dean's. By guiding us in the future as they have inspired us in the past, we will reach the mountain top of success and our achieve- ments will be due to them, to Professor Chaffee and to lXf1r.

Y . . . , Kappa Esta Hi legal Svnrnritg INE years ago, a small group of girls, students in the Chicago-Kent College li kg of Law, realizing the necessity of a tie to bind them together after leaving school when their small number would be scattered over the country, organized the K. B. H. Legal Sorority. Various chapters have been installed since in law schools admitting women. Growth has been slow on account ofthe fact that often it is impossible to find a nucleus of four women in the same school. This number is a requisite precedent to the formation ofa chapter and to make it more difficult, the necessary four must be in the second and third scholastic year. There are now only four girls in the Kansas City School of Law in the junior and senior classes. Some three or four years ago the girls, then students of our school, petitioned the K. B. H. for a chapter and were refused because a night school was not eligible. However, at the beginning of the school year one of our members received a letter from the Grand Dean which contained an intimation that a pe- tition from our school would be accepted. This proved to be a result of the boost- ing lyir. Bret Robertson, '16, now attending Northwestern University, is giving the K. C. S. of L. Upon receiving the consent of the faculty, we informed lvliss Isabel Samuels of Northwestern University, Grand Dean, that the stage was set. She came down New Year's day and the following day presided over the installa- tion ceremonies which were held at the lyfuehlebach. Now we are looking for a place to hang our charter and to call home, sweet homef, -Lfonore Simpfon 717 -lille P ifwgal linmtawka HE early fall of nineteen sixteen marked the advent of a new and unus- ually successful organization hitherto unknown to either Kansas City School of Law or any other like institution in the United States. Of all original ideas that spring from the brains of embryonic lawyers, the one promoted by several members of the Freshman class early last October seems to be the strongest contender for the Victor's Prize. The study of the law is always uppermost in the hearts and minds of all young men and women attending the Kansas City School of Law, but how to study scientifically, to get the most out of the shortest period of study and at the same time to have one's interest aroused to the fullest extent, has always been the prob- lem confronting each one. Today this problem has been solved. The credit for this distinctive feat and the advantage derived therefrom belong entirely to the organizers of the most progressive Legal Society in the middle west-the Legal Pomtasks. Although the life of the Legal Pomtasks is yet very young nevertheless it has been very eventfulg the brief existence filled with enthusiasm and many hours of labor rewarded by great accomplishments, warrants one of the most successful futures that any similar organization has ever known. Starting with a membership of four the Pomtasks now has a roster of seven- teen with permanent commodious quarters on the fifth Hoof of the New York Life Building where a very complete library of text-books and reports has been provided. The membership of this organization has reached its working limit. The fact that no new members will be elected until a vacancy occurs assures a long life and continued efficiency to the Legal Pomtasks. --105- 132 wmv ' I0- b LEISAL FIIHTASKE ix Q If v -FQ.

VVhile it is true there is no authentic history, apart from the Gospels, which deals originally and authoritatively with the trial and crucifixion of jesus, there are pertinent historical facts and circumstances which must be accorded their proper weight in ascertaining the motives of the ac- tors in the world's greatest judicial tragedy and the true meaning of events which are found obscurely recounted in the gospel narrative. Four separate judicial trials or hearings followed the arrest of jesus in Geth- semane. First a trial before the Sanhedrin which resulted in the conviction of the accused for blasphemy, an offense punishable by death in the criminal juris- prudence of the jews. But the Sanhedrin, as the highest court of the jews, had been deprived by the Romans of jurisdiction in Capital Cases and being unable lawfully to execute the sentence of death pronounced by the Court, its officers with the accusers and accused proceeded to the Court of the Roman Procurator, presided over by Pontius Pilate, the Procurator or personal agent and representa- tive of the Emperor Tiberius and the prosecuting officers announced to the Court the conviction and sentence of the accused in the Sanhedrin and under a plea of res adjudicata argued that the Roman tribunal sould accept the adjudication as final and pronounce and execute sentence accordingly. WYhat accusation bring ye against this man? demanded Pilate, and when the accusers impertinently answered, If he were not a malefactor we would not have delivered him up unto thee, Pilate contemptuously retorted, Take you him and judge him according to your law. The meaning of this colloquy as shown by the context was that the plea of res adjudicata was overruled and the accusers were compelled to aban- don the charge of blasphemy of which offense the Roman law would not take cognizance and to charge some crime under the latter law. The accusers therefore formally charged the accused with there separate and distinct offenses against the Roman laws, i.e., first, inciting the people of jerusalem to sedition against Rome, second, inciting them to refuse payments of the Roman tribute, and third, high treason against the emperor Tiberius in the alleged claim of the accused that he was the King of the jews. The first charge was obviously false since the people of jerusalem were not in rebellion against Rome nor seditious, but were clamoring for the life of the accused whom they were brazenly charging with se- dition. The Court ignored that charge and gave but little heed to the second accusation of inciting the people to withhold payment of the Roman tribute. But Pilate as Chief justice of the Court closely inquired into the merits of the accusation of treason and jesus vigorously and successfully defended himself against the accusation. The initial contention of jesus was for a fair and im- partial trial according to the principles and forms of Roman law and in the collo- quy between the judge and the accused we behold the scene, not of an encounter between a superior and inferior, but between the two greatest exponents of op- posite ideals meeting upon the highest level of the thought and conscience of the age. In answer to the challenge of the accused for a formal trial Pilate, calling attention to the fact that both he and tribunal over which he presided were Roman, held, in substance, that since the entire body of the subject community was in accord in the accusation and demand for the punishment of the accused, one of -I 09- eww- f f V. ...,-,-. its members, that fact of itself was sufficient to put the accused upon his defense. jesus accepted this ruling and interposed a defense in the nature of a plea of con- fession and avoidance. He explained his alleged claim of Kingship as not having been made in derogation of the sovereignty of the Emperor, but as being purely a figure of speech so far as political considerations were concerned. IN'Iy Kingdom is not of this world,,' he replied, to this end was I born and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Becoming con- vinced that he was dealing with a religious enthusiast and not a political agitator, the Court pronounced judgment of acquittal and Pilate formally announced the judgment to the accusers who were assembled immediately without the judgment hall, saying, 'AI find in him no fault at allf, The jews accepted this as an ac- quittal and immediately offered a new charge against the accused. And they were the more fierce, saying, 'He stirreth up the people teaching throughout all Jewry beginning from Galilee to this place,.', Galilee was in the territorial juris- diction ofthe Procurator, but was under the governorship of the Roman Tetrarch Herod, who as Tetrarch was subordinate to Pilate. The new defense charged by the jews fell primarily under the jurisdiction of the Tetrarchis Court, and Pilate very properly transferred the case to Herod, who was in jerusalem at that time to attend the Passover. The accused was taken before Herod who paid little, if any attention to the cause thus transferred to him for investigation. This was the Herod who put john the Baptist to death, a most sagacious, subtle, unprin- cipled man and the best informed and most astute politician in the Roman world. He stood for all that jesus opposed, and in him we behold the personification of the sin and wickedness of the political world-of organized society. Pilate de- spised him and would have none but official communication with him, but Herod that day brought Pilate in humility to his feet. HPilate and Herod were made friends together for before they were at enmity between themselves. Prompted by Herod who told them what to say, the jews returned to Pilate and made the astonishing demand that the judgment of acquittal be set aside and the accused be convicted on the charge of treason. Convinced of the innocence of jesus, Pilate, whose conduct to this point had been characterized by the utmost judicial propriety and fairness, tried in vain to escape compliance with the demands of the jews. The theory that he became fearful of physical violence at their hands and bent before the clamor of an angry mob, has no foundation and is obviously inconsistent with the facts and circumstances of the situation and with the char- acter of Pilate. The jews were unarmed, Pilate as Commander-in-Chief of all the military forces Rome maintained in his territory was amply protected and afterwards went to the scene of the crucifixion and nailed a writing on the cross which he intended as an insult to the jews, and when they protested he truculently replied, What I have written, I have writtenf, The theory that compelled him to accede to the demand of the jews was not fear of personal violence, but their often-repeated assertion, lf thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend. Whosoever maketh himself a King, speaketh against Caesar. Under the Roman law an appeal would lie to the Imperial Court at Rome from a judgment of acquittal rendered in a Procurator's Court in an action for treason. The quoted saying was a distinct threat, well understood, to appeal the case and involve Pilate as a sort of judicial accessory to the crime. Herod knew that Pilate did not dare face such a proceeding and Pilate, fearful of the knowledge of Herod, sought to make him his friend. One must go to the pages of secular history to find the real cause of Pilateis undoing. He was a Samnite, reared in the household of Sejanus,the Prime Min- ister ofthe Emperor Tiberius. The Emperor, eccentric and morbid, had retired in seclusion to a palace he built on the island of Caprii and left to Sejanus the administrations of his high ofiice. The success and popularity achieved by Sejanus turned his head and caused him to launch a conspiracy to murder Tiberius and have himself elevated to the Imperial Chair. lNfIany generals and public leaders were drawn into the conspiracy, which before it was fully matured, was discovered by spies of Tiberius. The Emperor acted with characteristic cunning and cruelty. -110- With full details of the plot and knowledge of those who were in it, he wrote Sejanus a complimentary letter, announcing his purpose to request the appoint- ment of Sejanus by the Senate to the offlce of Tribune of the people and appointed the day for conferring the honor. Sejanus appeared in the Senate at that time and the presiding oliicer opened and read a letter from the Emperor in which he denounced Sejanus as a traitor and demanded his immediate punishment. The Senate complied with the demand and within tl1e hour Sejanus was condemned and executed. The course pursued thereafter by Tiberius was most morbid and cruel. Instead of proceeding at once against all of the conspirators, he played with them as a cat with a mouse. He chose his victims one by one and always began by loading the immediate victim with honors and riches before denouncing and destroying him. Pilate, who owed all his advancement to his patron Sejanus, guilty of treason, did not know whether his guilt was known to the Emperor. The actions of Herod showed that he knew or at least suspected Pilate's treason. But even in its most favorable aspects, the situation was too delicate and danger- ous for Pilate to arouse the active antagonism of Herod. He did not dare face the Imperial Court on such a charge and to cover up his own treason and to save his own life he yielded to the inexorable and pitiless demand of tl1e persecutors of Jesus. The spectacle is not that of a weak and vacillating Judge succumbing to the clamor of a mob, but of a judge guilty of the very crime of which he con- victs the accused whom he knows to be innocent. Indeed, the wider and far more significant spectacle is presented of the great, wicked, sinful world itself, guilty of treason against the Most High God sitting in judgment on the innocent Son of God and pronouncing him guilty of the world crime. And when the pall of darkness enveloped the world in the awful hour of the cruciflxion and terri- fled the wicked Tiberius in his far-off palace at Caprii, it seemed that sin had triumphed, but the real victory was with jesus.

' Elhe Eawgvr Qbutlmuvh INDY JACK, sitting cross-legged against the open stable door, looked gi 7: up from doing something. with a lariat and shot me a friendly but quiz- Zical glance. That noise you maybe heard in Sandy's corral this ' 'Pl 'g morning is tied in the stall next to your roan maref, he said in his char- acteristic drawl. Look him over. God's noblest handiwork, an honest hossl A casual glance within the door assured me that he had indeed swapped horses again and that an evil-looking black has been substituted for the sorry bay he had possessed the day before. Who in the world traded you out of that one-eyed, kneesprung, balky para- gon of virtue you led home so proudly a week ago?,' I inquired mildly, well knowing without inspection that it would have been impossible for him to have obtained a less desirable animal than the bay. Our worthy English friend john Wi. Gibson, the attorney-at-law, is now the proud possessor of said anirnule, was the reply. I didnlt want to deal with him. I'm just naturally gun-shy of lawyers and I seldom have any truck with one but what he takes advantage of me some way. But this fellow just felt the need of a hoss of some kind and he couldn't catch up this black which got away from him a while back so I traded with him for fifty plunks' difference. Did you get the money? , Oh, yesg he gave me the money all right and I gave him the bay hoss, but I dunno yet how bad he gypped me. You know I gave up a saddle worth at least twenty dollars to get that hoss and if this black is no good then I only make thirty on the deal. Oh, these lawyers are cusses, all right. You gotta watch ,em.', His shrewd face, tanned a rich saddle-color, broke into a series of wrinkles and he emitted a dry cough which was about his nearest approach to laughter. I about plumb ruined a good catch rope getting that brute. I guess I threw him a dozen times before I got a hackamore onto him and he wrecked one whole side of Sandy's corral after that but I guess Ilve got him gentled up some now. I've just now been putting a new honda in that rope he mussed. I thought when I was working on that brute maybe it was a judgment on me for ever trying to teach that lawyer to have respect for the law. I guess I was a little mite rough with him the time he killed the ducks out of season but in a way he had it coming to him. You know how he's been ragging me ever since they commissioned me game warden last fall, askin' me fool 'hypothetical questions' as he called them and trying to make out like I would send for mounted police to rescue me if I ever made an arrest. You were back in the East when the chicken season opened, so you missed the excitement. He claims to be some huntsman and by 'his tell' practically nobody else outside of England knows anything about shooting. I must have seemed a little skeptical about his ability. Anyhow he decided he just had to give me a dem- onstration so we drove out together one afternoon. He is really almost as good a shot as he thinks he is, but awful quick-too quick sometimes. VVe got a few chickens each but of course no ducks as duck season wasn't open yet. Coming back we drove by the big pond at Henry Potts'. I had seen Henry the night before and made a little private arrangement with him involving some decoys he has, so I rather looked to see something when we got to the pond. VVe did. 'Look there, man, quickl, Iyclls, and I points very excited to the pond where there were two big mallards sitting quietly. Instantly he up and let drive with both barrels and both birds keeled over. 'Now you've done it! I says. 'Wihat do you want to shoot ducks for out of season? and I whipped up and drove away fast toward town. He never -113- 7 says a word but you should have seen his face, it was a picture of distress. 'I guess I gotta lock you up,' I says after about a mile. 'I suppose so,, he says very meek. 'I don't know why I did it, I knew better.' 'Yes,' I says, 'you sure didf Pretty soon he says: 'You forgot to bring your evidencef 'Don't need no evi- dence,' I says, cyour face will convict youi. Well, I drove up in front of the postofhce and left him holding the nag while I telephoned and while I was gone Andy and Jim comes out of the pool hall and observin' his crestfallen looks, inquires the cause. I admit maybe them fellers had some coaching from me beforehand but anyway he relates his troubles and they tell him that his best play is to cut out and stay under cover for a few days until things quiet down a bit. 'Technically, you're in Wrong,' says Jim, him being able to sling big words, having been raised a pet and filled with education and such-like. 'But practicallyf he says, 'an outrage is being perpetrated and dig- nity tromped in the dust to satisfy this feller's bloated sense of his own import- ance. Your escape will make his position ridiculous., Them boys is some persuasive when they start and they flnally got him out, and ducks with him up an alley. I gives 'em a good start and then after 'em on foot, yellin' and shootin'. Of course they got away. I believe they about run him to death before they got him to a safe place to hide which was that old shack about a mile up the track. They kept him hid out there for three days, takin' him feed and water at night and givin, him reports of how fiercely the country is bein' scoured for him. It was right cold at night and he wasn't any too comfortable in mind or body at any time, so finally they let him come back to town. They told him I had left town, which I had, but I came back in time to be lookin in the door of the law office when Friend Lawyer first observed the two shot-up mallard decoys perched on his desk and the sign readin': THE CORPUS DELICACY I guess maybe he traded hosses with me just to get revenge. --P.

The musical program of the evening was furnished by the infant industry of the school, the Glee Club, under the direction of Professor Frank E. Chaffee. One regrettable feature of the occasion was the absence of the club's benefactor, lVIr. O. H. Dean. Mr. Harry H. Evans '17, spoke on The Futuref, which subject is always interesting. lNIr. Evans does not claim to be a fortune-teller-but only a prophet, NIL Sylvan N. Brunner'19, gave an excellent address on The Kansas City School of Law: Its Raw Material and Its Product. The wonder of it is that Mr. Brunner could so thoroughly master his subject after so short an experience in the Kansas City School of Law. lXIiss Tierra Farrow '19, spoke on The Evolution of Woman, and in a quiet, unassuming way, did much to clear up the question of womanis status in the scheme of the Universe. Judge john H. Pollock '18 fthe title being merely honorary, according to his own statementl, in a way all his own, added much to the merriment of the evening in his illuminating talk on juniors Pre-eminentf' dwelling at length on the ad- vantages of that blissful state of juniorism, when one has safely survived the harrowing experiences of the Freshman year, and when the bogie of the Bar Ex- amination is still far in the future. An attempted report of Nlr. Pollock's sayings would be lifeless, to be appreciated he needs to be heard. There was at this banquet the unusual feature of alumnae representation. The 1916 Class took advantage of the occasion to present its class picture to the school. Xlr. Paul Koontz ,16, after giving a history of this wonderful class of 1916 and its marvelous achievements, deftly drew aside the folds of an innocent- looking American flag which had been observed just above the speakeris table, revealing to the gaze of the assembly the 1916 Class picture. There is still some discussion as to whether this was an honor or disgrace to the flag. lylr. Bill', Carson ,16, undertook to enlighten the expectant Kansas lawyers on the mysteries of the Kansas Bar Examination, and lVIr. Dan Washburn '16, undertook to perform a like office with the Nlissouri aspirants. On the printed program, interspersed at intervals under the heading Echoes of 1916, appeared the word Schmoos.H Up to the present Writing it has not developed whether this is the name of a new vegetable or a German spy. Bliss Hazel RI. Baldwin ,16, as Dean of the Kappa Beta Phi legal sorority, gave a short history of that organization. The principal address of the evening was given by Honorable E. C. Hamilton of Independence, NIO., whose subject was The Lawyer. hlr. Hamilton is a NE of the memorable occasions of the school year was that of the twelfth , , ff, 1 . . . . . fxflls , . - -115- graduate of the Kansas City School of Law and has become a very successful lawyer. Nlr. L. VV. Crowl '17, deserves especial commendation for his work as toast- master. One service performed by him was the early closing of the banquet, thus eliminating any chance for Mr. Todd to talk his customary two hours. -Gfrtmde Williamf '17, mlm flmiii Gbur l!9mu tn Svianh nn ilinreign CErnunh After I had been chosen as one of the representatives of my class to speak at this banquet, I was informed by our toastmaster that this was an occasion that required a humorous speech. I therefore set myself thinking of all the old chest- nuts that I had heard and the more I thought the more I felt like another certain gentleman who was to deliver an address on an occasion somewhat similar to this. His neighbor at his side engaged him in conversation and finally asked: Is your speech going to be like the badgeris tail? VVell, I donit know, said our friend how was that? Will it be fur to the end? I am not sure about thatf' was the reply, but it is going to be like the dog's tail-it is bound to a cur. And as I knew that this speech was bound to occur, I decided to talk to you on a subject that is very near to my heart, and to leave one thought with you which might be considered worth while. I have chosen a quotation from Wash- ington's farewell address as the subject upon which I will briefly address you. The chief thought in that great instrument was, that the United States should never form an alliance with a foreign power and that is the identical point upon which I wish to touch tonight. As lawyers and future lawyers, it is our duty to be leaders in the community in which we live, and which in turn looks to us for guidance. It is, perhaps, a sad commentary on us who live in the interior of our country, that we do not concern ourselves greatly with the position of our fair country in the councils of nations. We have lost to a great extent that which Edmund Burke said was one of our chief characteristics-the love of the study of international law. Therefore, in this day, with the greatest war in the world's history being fought before our very eyes, with two sets of hyphenated citizens, each trying to hamper the government and each trying to force legislation through the halls of an American Congress in favor of their foreign states, with an ex-president of the United States insisting that we should join the great conflict because of al- leged breaches of international law by a European power, I say it well behooves us to stop and consider the cool thought and advice of him who made this country possible. Washington in his farewell address gave to this country our strongest doc- trine of national policy when he said, It is our true policy to steer clear of per- manent alliances with any portion of the foreign worldf, and this doctrine was reiterated by Jefferson, who said, Our first and fundamental maxim should be, never entangle ourselves in the broils of Europe, our second, never to suffer Eu- rope to meddle with cis-Atlantic affairs. Thus from VVashington and Jefferson we get the foundation for that famous doctrine of Monroe, which has caused so many international complications but which is undoubtedly the greatest boon to American peace that ever came from an American pen. Foreign alliances can be roughly grouped into three classes: trade alliances, 7 77 -116i L .V ,, . . , Ny, .,,'. ,.-., . ,J . f- defensive alliances and offensive alliances. Trade alliances of themselves might not be harmful, but they require also the protection of that alliance, or, in other words, they require a defensive alliance to support them. And that is where the trouble begins. Power placed in the hands of nations by way of defense is prone to be used as an instrument of offense. The two great alliances of Europe are both defensive alliances and both claim to be engaged in a defensive warg yet to those who study the cause of this great conflict it appears that offensive commercial acquisition is the true cause and that both are equally guilty. They have reached that point attained by all alliances. The intoxication of power, sooner or later destroys the peaceful purpose for which it was created and it becomes a wolf in sheep's clothing. Alliance and Neutrality are antonymous terms-the one destroys the other. The favoritism shown to the one nation causes enmity in all the others. It weak-. ens the members of the alliance for they depend on the strength of the other mem- bers and not on their own. In a republic like this, it gives a chance for foreign nations to meddle in our politics, to infiuence our elections and to threaten the very existence of the republic. Let us, therefore, hold to the principle of strict neu- trality, showing favoritism toward none, justice and good faith toward all. Should our country be drawn into the maelstrom which is swiftly inundating the majority of the civilized world, may we go according to our tradition-stand on our own feet as single individuals in a righteous cause. But until that time we should rejoice that the young men of this country are alive and prosperous, educating themselves to become better citizens and to consecrate their lives for humanity, that we are able to gather here tonight at the banquet table, amid feast and plenty, instead of struggling in the mud and filth of a European trench fighting for a cause-we know not what. In conclusion, let us be thankful there was a Wvashington and may we not soon forget those burning questions that he so wisely asked posterity: Why quit our own to stand on foreign ground? Why by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalsliip, interest, humor or capricein -Henry P. Lowenflfin, fr. 'I7. A illvanl Eefnme Horace Brown. lawyer, was brushing his hat, preparatory to leaving his office for the day, when the door of the outer office opened suddenly. It was Saturday afternoon. Brown had allowed his clerk and stenographer to depart at noon, he himself had stayed behind to finish up some work. Brown heard the door open and stepped into the outer office to greet the visitor. It was a woman stout, past middle age, red hair, and not at all beautiful. One glance revealed that much to the lawyer. Good afternoonf' said the woman. HI want to see Kfr. Brownhhfr. Horace Brown-on some very important business. ls he in? Yes, madamf' answered the lawyer, bowing. I am Nfr. Brown. iVon't you step into my private office?f' He led the way into the cozy inner room and motioned her toward a chair. 4'Now, madam, he went on, seating himself at his desk and assuming his most professional pose, you can speak unreservedlyg we are quite alonef, f'You are sure that nobody can hear us? asked the woman, nervously. 'fAbsolutely, madam. You can set your mind at rest on that point. Whatever you wish to impart will be treated as strictly privatef' ul would not like to have anybody overhcar our conversation, persisted the woman. It is impossible, madamf' the lawyer assured her. lt is a very confidential matter, pursued the woman. I am prepared to treat it as such,'l said the lawyer. To himself he was thinking, I wish she would hurry up and tell me what she wants. '1'hat's the trouble with women. They always beat about the bush so. 'fl want you to feel perfectly at your ease, he added, aloud. 'fSpeak to me frankly and unre- -IIT- . , v,..,.,..,...,,,,,....,,,,.,.,,,., ,,,... ..,g,..., ..,. ,Y . . it. A q... v,,,..,,,..

I'm afraid youfll think me very bold and audaciousf' titters the woman. Not at all, said the lawyer, wondering what all this hesitancy portended. Well, lXIr. Brown, went on his caller, apparently plucking up courage, it is a delicate errand that brings me here to you, but one that concerns you personally. Concerns me personally! gasped the lawyer, for the moment taken aback. 1 have never had the pleasure of meeting you before, Mr. Brownf' said the woman, but I have heard much about you. 'fThank you, madamf' replied the lawyer, bowing. During my ten years' practice of law I think I can venture to hope that I have acquired smething of a legal reputation. Oh, it isn't of your professional reputation I've heard, said the woman with a smile. What then? asked the lawyer, anxiously. 1t's your personal reputation. 1've heard that you are a most exemplary man, so far as char- acter is concerned. 'fThank you, madam, said Brown, with a blush. I've heard that you are the kind of man any girl would be glad to marry, continued the law- yer's visitor. L'What on earth is she driving at?'l thought Brown. And therefore I have come to ask you a very delicate question-you will excuse my boldness, please. VVhy don't you get married, lXIr. Brown ? But, my dear madaml protested the lawyer, flushing to the roots of his hair. But my dear nothing, INIr. Brown, interrupted the woman, quickly. 'fYou think you are happy now, perhaps. Well, you don't know what happiness really is until you get married. A nice young man like you has no right to stay single, Excuse my boldness, but really you ought to marry. The gaze of the astonished lawyer rested on the calendar on his desk. It was 1916 and Leap Year. He realized the truth with a thrill. Woman's one chance to propose in four years! This woman was merely taking advantage of the privilege of her sex. As has been said, she was fat, past middle age, red-haired and homely. Brown looked at her and shuddered. f'Canlt you picture to yourself how nice it would be to have a nice, cozy little home to go to when you leave this office? she continued. But, madam- protested the lawyer again. And a nice affectionate little wife to cheer you when you are downcast. To share your sorrows with you and double your joys? Brown sat staring at the woman before him, his breath taken away by her audacity. He was afraid to speak for fear he should laugh in her face. It seemed so exceedingly humorous to hear this corpulent, plain-looking creature actually pro- posing marriage to him and describing herself as a nice, affectionate little wife. Little! Ye gods and little fishes! I am sure I can supply the wantf' went on the woman. 1 feel that surely I can be of great help to youf' She moved her chair a trifle nearer his. Brown felt that it was high time to rouse himself to say something. In another minute he feared, she should be throwing her arms around his neck and mur- muring into his ear that it was all so sudden. If I were thinking of getting married, madam, he said gently, UI would be glad to avail myself of your offer, I am sure that you would make me an excellent wife. I am sure that you would be a great help to meg but--'I The woman interrupted him with a shrill laugh. I make you an excellent wifel she cried. Why, bless you, man, 1'm a married woman with a husband and three children. Brown breathed a great sigh of genuine relief. Then may I ask, madam, what you intend to do with another husband?,' he gasped. This isn't Utah. Of course it isn't, my dear Mr. Brown. 1 wan't proposing marriage for myself at all when I spoke of a nice affectionate little wife. To whom were you referring, then, madam?', asked the lawyer, anxiously. To your daughter? To my daughter! Nog why, bless you, man, my oldest child is only six years old. I was re- ferring to another young lady altogether. In fact, I have several young ladies on my list, any one of whom is guaranteed to make a charming wife for any man. She opened a chatelaine bag and handed him therefrom an engraved card.

It was purely a business transaction. This stout, red-haired woman was talking business to him. He felt at once at his ease. The tim- orous blushing man gave way to the clever, suave lawyer once more. I am sure the girl I have in mind would just suit you, said the woman. She is tall, vivacious, and not yet twenty-four years of age. She is thoroughly domesticated and a good cook. What color is her hair? asked Brown, with interest. Dark brown, replied the woman. No good, thenf' said Brown, decisively. I had trouble with a girl with dark brown hair ten years ago and I swore then never to look upon any other brown-haired girl again. Then perhaps I can interest you in another girl. We have a very nice blonde. A really temtping proposition, My dear lXIr. Brown, and the woman spoke in the tone of a drummer trying to sell a new line of hair-combs. 'fShe is only thirty years old and is a very charming young girl. If she didn't have one eye missing she would doubtless have suitors by the hundreds. As it is you get a real bargain . She leaned for- ward and whispered confidentially, There is ten thousand dollars goes with this girl. Her father is a rich brewer. What do you say? Brown seemed impressed. 'fTen thousand dollars thrown in with the girl, eh? That sounds tempting, he remarked. I should certainly advise you, Nlr. Brown, to avail yourself of this chance while it is open. You can never tell how quickly this bargain may be snatched up.', f'What business did you say her father was in? inquired Brown with interest. Wealthy brewer, replied the woman. Brown shook his head. 'fThat would never do, I am afraid, he said. You see I am the presi- dent of the Prohibition League. What would folks say if I were to marry a brewerls daughter? Very true, rejoined his caller. Then perhaps I can interest you in another proposition. A nice young woman with a fortune of fifty thousand dollars in her own right. A Fifty thousand dollars, eh ? cried Brown. f'And is this young woman pretty? Quite nice-looking. And how old is she? I'm afraid she may be a little too old for you. She swears she isn't a day more than fifty-three. She is well preserved. Fifty thousand dollars is a good round sum, hlr. Brown. I should advise you to think this overf, Pass on, said Brown, firmly. He was beginning to enjoy himself immensely. I couldn't stand for a fifty year old bride, not even if she had a fortune of fifty thousand dollars. Pass on to the nextf' 'fHow would you like to have an auburn-haired girl? said the woman, egacr. I have one on the list. Shels only twenty-six years old. She can sing and dance beautifully and is really expert at beadwork. f'How much money comes with her? asked Brown. Her father is willing to pay ten thousand dollars to see her happily married. Brown thought hard for a minute. 'fYou say she is fond of dancing? he inquired. Very, said the woman. When I come to think of it, lNIr. Brown. I feel sure that she is just the girl for you. 'fOn the contrary, said Brown, UI am afraid she would not do at all. You see, I do not dance, and if I married a girl so very fond of dancing she would be running out all the time to balls and parties. That would be too dangerous an experiment. I am afraid we will have to pass her. I suppose you wouldn't take a deaf-mute? asked the wonam. Well, silence in a woman, especially in a wife, would be no disadvantage at times, but it might get monotonous to have a wife who is always dumb. VVhat inducements do you offer with her? A fine house and lot, said the marriage broker. In this city? asked Brown. UNO, in St. Joseph, replied the woman. I wouldn't live out of Kansas City, said Brown. Pass on to the next. live got another girl in mind, said the woman. She is young and prrtty, and she has a house and lot in her own name right in Kansas City-on Warwick Boulevard, too. h That sounds good,', said Brown. f'Letls hear some more about her. What is the color of er hair? ' 'fWell, shels got brown hair, admitted the woman, but surely if everything else is all right that won't really make any difference, Mr. Brown, wcoaxingly. just because you've had trouble with one brown-haired girl doesn't mean that you should refuse to look at any girl with brown tressesf' 'fAh, no, sighed Brown, I shall never look upon another brown-haird girl. The one I had trouble with ten years ago was enough for me. He took a framed picture from the desk and held it in front of him at arm's length, gazing at it musingly. He became so wrapped in the picture that he appeared to have forgotten that the woman in the room was there at all. She brought him to himself again by laying a hand gently on his arm. You mustnlt, Mr. Brown, you mustn't, she said. I know what you are doing. You are thinking of the brown-haired girl. You are looking at her portrait. You must destroy that picture forthwith. You must forget all about her. There are as good fish in the sea as ever came out, you know. I'll find you a girl so fine in every respect that it will make you laugh to think you ever wasted a thought on this brown-haired creature. You must not think of her any more, Mr. Brown, you really must not. 'fOn the contrary, madam, replied Brown, I really must. I donlt want to forget this girl with the brown hair. You see, I married her ten years ago. You must pardon me for not having men- tioned it before. -Harvey D. Taylor, 'I9. -119- lgairintiam in K. Ol. 50. nf EI.

Sincerely yours, W- dim Secretary to the President Hon. William P. Borland, House of Representatives. The patriotism of the students of the school has been shown in a more sub- stantial way since the sending ofthe telegram and the receipt of its answer. Sev- eral of our students have seen ht to enlist in the various departments of the Na- tional defense and the close of the school year will see more following their example. The faculty has very kindly allowed credit to the students who have enlisted, based upon the work they were doing when called, and members of the Senior class will receive their degrees the same as though the year had been completed. lt is hoped that the war will soon end, that democracy will triumph over militarism, that the sacrihces which these men have made will not be in vain, but that Mgovernment of the people, by the people and for the people will be uniform throughout the world. -121- imlgws-V-fyvvapn-nw-uns, v -g..-,,aw.,...a-rn,,,v.... ,.. ,,,,m Ahuire in Huang Eamgvra VVhene'er you speak, remember every cause Stands not on eloquence, but stands on laws, Pregnant in matter, in expression brief, Let every sentence stand with bold relief, On trifling points nor time nor talent waste, A sad offense to learning and to taste, Nor deal with pompous phrase, nor e'er suppose Poetic flights belong to reasoning prose.

These statements in the Declaration of Independence helped create an en- thusiasm which freed the thirteen colonies. Do they mean anything today? It is estimated by Scott Nearing in his work Poverty and Riches that nine- tenths of the American wage-earners receive less than 21,000 per year, that two- thirds of these receive less than 25750 per year, and one-third of the latter less than S500 per year. It costs from S750 to 81,000 per year for a family to live decently in an Eastern industrial center. Go into the slum of a manufacturing city, if your stomach is strong enoug to abide the squalor and filth and the odors to which they are parent, cultivate the man who is supporting a family on S600 a year. Youfll find that his right to life consists in the right to support himself, wife and an indefinite number of progeny on coarse and sometimes insufficient fare, in a sumptuous one-room dwelling with a single window affording a limited view of a landscape comprised of an alley profusely ornamented with dirt, children and garbage cans. Sure, he still has his life, possibly because his employer doesnft want it. He has liberty to go anywhere he wants, though of course he can't go much on S600 a year. To crown his collection of rights with a jewel of inestima- ble value, the pursuit of happiness is not barred to him, though if he ever succeeds in finding any, itis in spite of a handicap equal to that of the legless and armless man who wanted to climb the greased pole at a country fair. The apparent cause of this manfs misery is poverty. Give him more wages and he and his family will have sufficient food, and he will be able to improve his housing conditions. There may be said to be a threefold division of the factor vitally affecting the laborer, i. e., the physical surroundings under which the work is performed, the hours of labor, and the rate of wages. VVe have deemed it advisable to pass laws requiring dangerous machinery in factories to be sheathed, we have made re- quirements as to the illumination and ventilation of the places where people are employed. Hours of labor have been limited to the number which a human being can work with reasonable regard for his future health. Each of these laws are re- strictions on the liberty of the individual to contract. Every time they have been passed their opponents have dragged out the Zaiffez-faire doctrine as ar- gument against them. Adam Smith's intellectual miscarriage is beginning to have a somewhat bedraggled and crestfallen appearance from the number of times it has been dissected and rejected but the capitalists still expect it to engage the favorable attention of public opinion. XVhen it is stated that it is an ineffectual reform which protects the worker in the factory and the hours of labor and then sends him home to live in one room with his family and subsist on a meager portion of bread, pork and potatoes, and it is proposed to force the employer to pay each person employed a wage sufficient to procure for him immediate necessities and a reasonable outlook for good health in the future, the employer replies that eco- nomic forces should be given free play to determine the wage. Capital does not employ itself. A directing brain is required. The capital- ist's aim is to secure the greatestpossible profit, this aim can often be attained by paying less than a living wage. The laborer must work or he cannot eat, capital may be exchanged for things to eat. Labor is a perishable good which must be sold from day to day, capital will keep. The capitalist is protected by the courts, the laborer is ejected by the courts. Therefore the laborer must sell his goods at the buyerfs price. Whenever this price is less than the amount necessary to -123- , , , .N N V , s Q , -c - X 'N' ,- -1'nsi?' uP T ' - - - rf: WF.. F '.'-.F Az- -5 , ,, ......i i fc- 2 aa X rf H maintain the laborer in good physical condition, our government ceases to exist for the benefit of all the governed. The Zaiffez-faire policy and democracy are inconsistent and one must cease to exist. The doom of the former, long impend- ing, is now decreed. Economic forces, undirected, cannot secure for the worker a living wage, the law must do so. VVe have seen that the laborer is in need of help, for approximately 6002, of American laborers receive less than the amount needed for respectable family living. lt is a fact that the two factors in the employment of labor in addition to the wage, i. e. physical surroundings of the laborer while at work and hours of employment, have been regulated by law. It has been shown that the only, al- ternative which unorganized labor has to reform its condition, namely, natural economic action and adjustment, is ineffectual. It is to be perceived that the only remedy for unorganized or weakly organized labor is minimum wage legislation. The employer underpays his employees. The result is that the workman's body is weakened. Wlhen the workman is not well fed and comfortably housed his body suffers. This makes for ineHiciency later in life. The employer coins the worker's manhood or womanhood into dollars, but he is not content with that. VVhen the reformer comes around and demands the minimum wage the employer pleads that many of his men are inefflcient, that they can't earn the minimum wage. In some cases this is true but the employer is only holding out his own product as a defense. Thus a vicious circle prevails. Some workmen are in- efficient because they have recieved and are receiving less than a living wage, and so less than a living wage is sought to be justified because some workmen are inefiicient. The minimum wage would end this. VVhen a salesgirl receives a 35.00 a week wage and 28.00 is the least upon which she can live, there is a gap between what she gets as a wage and what she must have to live upon that must be bridged in some manner. If she has no ac- cess to a charity or is unwilling to accept it and is afraid to steal, there is always another way. The poor working girl frequently keeps body and soul together at the expense of the latter. The minimum wage would eliminate a prolific source of prostitution. If an employer can have only two workmen for an outlay of 821.00 whereas in the past he had three for the same price, he naturally attempts to get as much service out of the two as out of the three before. He cannot do this by increasing the hours of labor for that is prevented by law. He must further illuminate and ventilate the factory and attempt to train his men to give efficient service. Under the first wage scale, labor was cheaper than the necessary efforts to make it effi- cient, under the latter scale, labor is a precious thing, to be carefully conserved and developed in its producing capacitites. Thus the minimum wage puts a pre- mium on individual eHiciency. There is one form of competition which is particularly grinding on the working person. This is the competition of the casual worker, supported by father or hus- band, who works merely for pin money. They add to the supply intermittenly, and frequently work for less than the average wage. They force down the wages of those who must earn their own livelihood. Under a minimum wage with its increased demand for efiiciency the employer will not discharge his trained and steady employee for the casual and unpracticed worker. The minimum wage is a step in the direction of the new democracy. It will strengthen the bodies of our people and thus strengthen the fiber of democracy. It will increase industrial efficiency, and efiiciency is necessary while we work if we are to reduce the hours of labor. It will prevent many of the women who are to contribute their share to the motherhood of the next generation from forming a partnership with vice. It will put in the hands ofthe man in the street money wherewith to buy books and magazines for his education. The minimum wage is the first chapter in the book of social jus- tice. The minimum wage will prevent some persons from working who cannot earn the minimum wage. Viie can either give these persons special permits to work at less than the living wage or else we can very well afford to support them -12'1f -..,., , . c - ,, ...., , ,vw 1-1 on charity. When a person does not receive a living Wage, society has to furnish the balance, either in immediate charity or in the decreased efficiency of the worker, resulting in ultimate charity. It is better to maintain in strength those who have it at the expense of entirely supporting those who have it not, than to draw the one down to the condition of the other in order to enable the weakling to eke out a livelihood for himself temporarily. Whenever an industry receives the working strength of a human being at a wage less than enough to maintain the laborer in normal health, it is, to that extent, parasitical upon society, which must make up the balance to the indivi- dual, and has no economic justification for its existance. -Harry' II.

Elmer N. Powell was elected President, O. H. Dean, President of the School and E. D. Ellison, Dean, were elected to honorary membership, as well as Judge Van Valkenberg, U. S. District Judge, Judge Henry L. NIcCune and Gardner Lathrop. These men were selected on account of their learning as lawyers and also of their eminent standing in the community in which they live. The initiation was given by the Green Chapter of Kansas University, and by a special dispensation the representatives of Green Chapter came to Kansas City, and the initiation ceremony was held at the beautiful home of Honorable O.

Keyesj IXIR. EMPLOYER:- I have been working for you for one year. Your law practice brings you in thirty thousand a year. I am a member of the bar and you pay me ten dollars a week. As a lawyer I am probably worth about five dollars a week, but con- sidering the fact that I carry your golf clubs to the car, purchase your theater tickets, see that your Wifels watch is fixed up at the jeweler's, I take the extra five dollars without any qualms of conscience. I am not ashamed to do these personal services. I am a shy sort of a man and I have to feel on good terms with an employer with whom I am in personal Contact all day long. I know you would be hurt to the quick if I refused you. In fact, I'm sure of it. Don't I well re' member the day when you sent me up to argue a motion in Supreme Court, from which place I was to go to the recorderls office and make an abstract of title, and from there go to the milliner's and take home your wife's bonnet? I refused to take home your wife's bonnet, much as I like to please the ladies, and you were very cold for a week. It was a lucky thing for me that the new chap just admitted to the bar took charge of the bonnet. He had full charge of the ladies department after that. Coming back to the question of salary, I think you ought to pay me twenty dollars a week. Not because I am worth it. Any big firm knows that you can buy the best legal brains in the city for fifteen dollars a week. I want you to pay me twenty dollars a week because you are a professed Christian and have an in- come of thirty thousand a year. I want you to be kind, unpractical, a good Samaritan-I want you to forgive me my mistakes and give me enough to get me my daily bread. If you do, I shall work like the very devil for you. Every case you hand me I shall act on it as if it were my own, an attitude which it is impossible for me to take on ten dollars a week, and by Coke, Littleton and Blackstone and the Code of Civil Procedure, I shall see that your wife gets her bonnets by the simple expedient of paying a telegraph messenger out of my raise in salary. -Mr. Law-Clark if -1264 J.- ,- i :J fi? ,f 4 , c for L 1 lf Q ' f f: - 5 1 al A' vi .1 EJW. l - V 1 Igffiiiii 'Iii f I .

He found the kitchen window open and merely inserted his right arm and removed a few trifiing articles. Now, my client's arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense committed by only one of his limbs. The judge smiled with his superior smile, and then proceeded to pass sentence with these introductory remarks: That argument is very well putf' he said, Following it logically, I sentence the prisoner's arm to one year's imprisonment. He can accompany it or not, as he chooses. The prisoner gave a polite bow, and with his lawyer's assistance unscrewed his cork arm and, leaving it on the clerk's table, walked calmly out of the court- room.
