TRUE spirit of progress. evincing itself repeatedly. marks the eventful three years spent by the junior Class in the halls of judicial education. A period of innumerable innovations and far-reaching changes penetrating not only the present, but far into the future of the Kansas City School of Law, a portion of the credit being justly claimed by the class of '27, the last assembly of juniors in the old school. and the first 'fSeniors to be in the splendid new temple of jurisprudic knowledge to be occupied in 1927. marks the accomplishment of years of unfailing effort on the part of the faculty and whole- hearted co-operation from the student body. lndividuality runs high in the junior Class. and a difference in opinion has often caused a near-riot in class elections and meetings gbut this is something that we are justly proud of, being indicative of a real studentinterest in class affairs. livery member has always taken advantage of that inalienable American right of freedom of speech, insuring a true representation of the class in all school activities. Almost the entire Freshman year was spent in framing' the constitution and electing the officersg in fact it can he safely said that all previous records for class meetings and elections were easily shattered. Everyone had their own ideas about how things should be managed and naturally. being of class '27, felt quite free to express the mto the world. llut all great things have turbulent beginnings, and out of the chaos of factional argu- ments, disagreements and general disorder developed the spirit of co-operation and good fellowship that has become a permanent characteristic of the present junior Class. The following officers were finally chosen: President-Jay Gould Vice-President-john W'alsh Secretary - Bliss Kenworthy Treasurer -- Charlie Vlones lt was also during our lfreshman year that the l'andex ball was instituted which has become a permanent annual occurrence. and to the success of which '27 has largely con- tributed. The Sophomore year passed quite as all Sophomore years do. and the pride of passing the second milestone weighed perhaps as heavily on '27 as on all others, but perhaps we were more or less pardonable. for did we not have the lovely l'andex Queen. Miss Vera Harris. in our midst? l31I The able guidance of the following officers steered our ship on the second lap of our voyage: President-J. C. O'l'lrien Vice-President-George A. Peterson Secretary-Mrs, Margaret livans Treasurer-,lack Aylward Sergeant-at-Arms-jack Kirkham But, casting the tender memories of the past aside, we find the junior Class just as enthusiastic in the present as in the past. There was no discrimination between juniors and Freshmen the opening evening' of school, and the dignified junior's Stetson was doomed to the same fate as the Freshmans VVormser. The production of this book, the chief school duty of the Jun'or class, was intrusted to a capable staff and the entire class is grateful to them for their sincere efforts, and proud of their achievements. Officers of the junior Class are: PresidentfH. L. Cummins Vice-PresidentMR. W. Gabriel Secretary-Vera G. Harris Treasurer-H. G. Howard Sergeant-at-Arms--Chas. Cf, Kelly The class of '27 has produced innumerable social affairs during the past three years. all of which were highly successful, the reigning principle being a maximum amount of dignified entertainment at a minimum cost. In debate '27 has always had a large representation, placing several men on the various teams throughout the three years, among them being numbered Elmer O. Hodges, jesse A. Payne, William Oliver McMahan, J. D. Reeves, Harold O. Waggoner and David L. Logsdon. , Such, briefly, is the history of the Junior Class, and there is every indication that upon the closing of the old school, whose halls have seen the rising fires of youthful ambition, and whose teachings have proved a found.ation for many of our worthiest citizens, the junior Class will gladly do its utmost to carry that same spirit of progress and good fellow- ship that has so largely contributed in the past to the success of the Kansas City School of Law, into the new quarters to dwell there permanentlyfa heritage for all who follow. -J.

Subjects have been expounded to us by a worthy group of professors, and while none of our members have yet attempted to write a treatise on any legal subject, a 'tworking knowl- edge is being obtained. The class showed a get-together spirit by holding a meeting at the beginning of the term and selecting Mr. Earl l. Vaughan to lead us through the year, and his efforts deserve praise. Mr. Stephen A. Bilby was elected Vice-President, Miss Ruth Adair Alexander, Secretaryg Mr. john W. Lee, Treasurer, and Mr, Roy McNally, Sergeant-at-Arms. Followed then the organization of the Debating Society. The debates were spirited, inspiring and instructive and afforded our orators ample opportunity to display their elo- quence and logic. At the VVashington Day Banquet the class of l928 was well represented by Mr. Willber Mabry and Mr, liugene C. vleter, two of our orators. Our midyear and final examinations came with all their terror, but finding the class prepared, passed on as other exams before and since, leaving but a few by the wayside. During the first semester we were kept busy extracting the few fundamental prin- ciples from Coinmon l.aw Heading. under our popular professor, Mr. Leacy, from Statu- tory Laws under Rlr. lfield. who is known to the members of our class as a walking en-- qy-elopedia of legal inforination and historical data, and from Damages under Mr. Cope, l45l illustrated by leading cases wherein the young lady was thrown from her boarding hou-ae :mfl the breach of promise suit. The various fraternities and sororities of the school have taken into their folds many members of the class. A considerable number of the original members of the class have been compelled by circumstances to abandon their studies at least temporarily, but this diminution of the numerical strength of the class has been somewhat offset by other students, who, realizing before it was too late the many advantages offered by the Kansas City School of Law, entered our class after pursuing the Freshman subjects in other schools. Several of our members have indulged in romances which led to the altar and not a few others have become proud fathers. ' e We have striven faithfully and honorably. A measure of success has already been ours and we feel that we may yet do honor to the Kansas City School of Law, in the last two years we will enjoy and, later, in the practice of our chosen profession. We are sin- cerely appreciative of the earnest and competent efforts of the faculty. They have been patient where patience was needed, stern where sternness was required, and humorous when humor helped to lighten the burden of a technical study. It is our vain hope that if ever we appear as their adversaries before the har, the knowledge they have so ably imparted to us may well be used against them. The class numbers among its members some very successful business men and women, and others from various walks of life who aspire to greater success. May all attain it and may they always feel proud of the fact that they chose the Kansas City School of Law for their legal training and were members of the class of '28 n -Mabelle VV, Dillon, '28 lima. l.

Zzm-lnllxx Tefifim br Injzmvfiofe Plaintiffs tale of ceaseless woe herein she doth relate, Some thirty years ago. or more, she took herself a mate, One Rastus Eph'rum Williams, a man of many parts, A Pullman pohtah worker with the noble-est of hearts. Long have they lived together near Eighteenth street and Vine. VVhenever he was on his run, for him she'd always pine. With fo'teen inky chilluns their domicile was blest QA very happy household, a cunning little nestj. With 'possum an' potatoes an' bacon meat an' pone She always greeted Rastus on his returning home. An' e'er at cullud dances their life was jes divine When Angelina johnson came swinging down de line! An' Rastus sometimes boasted, amid de dusky mirth, Dat plaintiff, Angelina, was de bestest one on earth , An' too, when Sunday morning came, an' service would begin, Your plaintiff led de shoutin' an' defendant cried, Amen ! But a fly got in de ointmentsas flies are apt to do- An' yo' pleader has discovered dat Rastus is untrue! He's devotin' his attention to a highly-colored jane An' am causin' yo petitioner irrep'rable pain. She's named Petunia Rickets, a choclit-colored brown, Who came to Kansas City from an Alabama town. Oh, she's a vampire hussy, there ain't no doubtin' that, If Uncle Tom had seen her, he'd have left his cabin flatg She'd even conquer Old Black joe an' make him young an' gay, An' Uncle Ned would lose his head an' soon be lead astray. VVhy, Ras done sent her flowers-Oh, -ledge, it's ha1'd to tell- He even wears petunias on B. V. D, lapel! She's got a scarlet evenin' gown, dis Cleopatra frill, An' ole, deceivin' Rastus done gone an' paid de bill! He's beat me fo' days runnin, dis kinky-headed ram, An' 'lows he loves much better dis gal from Rummin'ham! VVHEREFO' Jedge, dis plaintiff, without no help at law, An' knowin' now for certain other aid she cannot draw, Doth pray de court to show his forte an' halt dis little fling, EN-IOIN her spouse, de faithless louse, an' make him cease dis thing RESTRAIN dis wench, obstruct her guile, an' interrupt her wiles, An' den. perhaps, po' Rastus will come back home all smiles. Oh, no sir, ah want no divo'ce-a bettah thing ah crave- ENJOIN dis wicked couple, an' mah happiness you'll pave. You kin make it temporary, but make it permanent, Fo' mah po' misguided husband ah'm boun to circumvent! Any, ledge, ah craves befo' ah'm thoo, one thing dat you kin guess: Ah wants all aid dat's just an' due-ah wants jes' happiness! R.

They will relate to their children in future years a story of the riotous welcome they received as they were ushered from the elevator doors on the fifth floor of the Nonquitt build- ing through a gauntlet of some fifty upper classmen and how they thereupon began a four- year journey to acquire a clear conception of the law. At the outset. let us say the class of '29, although it may not surpass Freshman classes ot' bygone years, is equally scholastic. is possessed of a fine school spirit, and has demon- strated a laudable degree of co-operation. VVe say this, not in a boastful way, but in all sin- eerily.

Kent Secretary-lflizabeth VVilson XYe were sorry to see Mr. XVheat depart as master of the helm, but without a doubt we are just as ably represented by Mi. Lowell Palmer who was chosen to succeed Mr. VVheat at our fifth regular meeting on january 18th. Throughout each election was heard strains of the well known anthem, Ridin' on the Railroad, which was sung by a few members of the class who had only a momentary prejudice. Une outstanding feature among the activities of the school is the support the Freshmen have given to the Yarsity Debate Team. lt is only fair to mention here the good work of the lfreslnnan Ilebate Team. Those chosen to represent the class in this activity were lflizabeth Wlilson. captain: Sol llennis and Roy Morris. Among the prominent social events of the year was the Christina-2 dance sponsored by the class which proved to lie one of the se.tson's high lights. The setting of this function made one feel as though he had been suddenly transported to a land of loveliness. Miss XXI-insheinlt is certainly to be commended tor making this attair a 5llL'tfL'SS. I 57 I ln the lireslnnan l-lall of lfame belongs the name of one Rex Pickett. lt woulfl not he amiss to proviwle this loyal classmate with the title of General Salesmanager. He has worked untiringly forthe success of the Pantlex ancl most assuredly fleserves a great amount of credit. XVe are proucl of our members who spolse at the Xlasltington llay llanquet. Roy Mor- ris and Arthur Stanley not only clicl justice to their own ability, but received the greatest applause of all the class representatives. Thus far no mention has been made of any member of the faculty, which is a bit unusual in writing a class history. As inexperienced Freshmen we are at a loss to know just how such remarks would be construed. We believe, however, that Mr, Pew, judges johnson and l'owell and Mr. Gage have sympathizefl with us in our infancy. Then with a ferociousness resembling the ancient Spanish bull-fight or the raging of a modern Kansas winclstorm, Mr. just and Mr. Ragland made their clebut on the night of Marclt 9th. This should unquestionably have its place in the list of the year's events. Thus enfls the history of the Freshman Class of 1926 but not the class of '29. For the years that are to follow, there will always be a history of the lireshrnan Class but not another of the class ot l929. WE shall enfleavor to establish a recorcl in the way of scholastic attainment and to be a shining example for future classes in their sturly of the noblest pro- fession on earth. fC. A.

XX'ymorc The ew Bzzilding T the close of this Classes section, it seems appropriate that The Pandex Staff say a few words about the wonderful new Law School building which the founders and friends of the School have built for us. We have seen the building and our enthusiasm is unboundingg if you have seen it, you doubt- less feel the same way. The new building is located at 913 Bal- timore avenue, right in the heart of the downtown section of the city. lt is constructed of brown brick and Bedford stone on the outside. The first floor of the interior contains a spacious lounge room with a big, homey fireplace, a cloakroom, offices, small quizz room and library. The second floor contains two large lecture rooms, divided by a series of folding doors so constructed that, when it is desired, the two rooms can be made as one, with a seating capacity of approximately seven hundred. The building is equipped with an up-to-date ventilating sys- tem, which changes the air every few minutes and insures against draughts. Cost has not been spared to make the building in every way a delightful place for the student in school hours and also in between times. We are sure that the progressive spirit which has manifested itself in the erection of this building will be exemplified by the students in their studies, and after gradua- tion they will show the good effects from their training in their success in professional and business life, thus adding more glory to that which the Law School already has. l70l N Dad Jlfoifgan HIC l'ANIJliX Staff takes this uppiirtunity uf iiitimliiciiig tu its i'czulci's Zl I gcntlcntztn whip, tu the lfmwlicst l:l'L'Sl1Hl2iIl Zlllll tht- lofticst Stllifll' :xliktq iiccils no iittrrmfhiction.

I71l T cannot he denied, hut hy those who would dispute against the sun, that with America, and in America, a new era com- mences in human affairs. This era is distinguished hy free representative governments, hy entire religious liherty, by im- proved systems of national intercourse, by a newly awakened and an unquenchable spirit of free inquiry, and hy a diffusion of knowledge through the community, such as has heen before altogether unknown and unheard of. America, America, our country, fellow-citizens, our own dear and native land, is in- separably connected, fast bound up, in fortune and by fate, with ihese great interests. lf they fall, we fall with themg if they stand, it will he because we have upholden them. -Daniel Ufehster. I72l '92 Ectivities ii, 1 if - 1 an P? 5 5 ! E J . Z Q F Social Qffnfioifiey HIS school year. socially, was successful in toto, every event going over big. The classes deserve equal congratulations on the various activities which they sponsored. The Social liditor wishes to impress you with the fact that to record, in black on white, the entertainment, thrills and enjoyment that attended our social events is a dif- ficult task, Only those fortunate enough to attend can fully appreciate and know the pleasure that was there. But in order that the cruel sponge of forgetfulness may not erase from memory the dates, places, et cetera, they are preserved in the following chron- ological social calendar: November 21, 1925. The Junior Class, upholding its reputation established in pref vious years of putting big things over big, was the first to break into the social limelight with a dance at Drexel Hall. This early season hop was very successful, both finan- cially and in providing an evening full of pleasure and enjoyment for all those present. Of course there was no chalice of any harm coming to any of us as ample protection was furnished by those self-invited guests who faithfully guarded the exits and exercised a purported authority in placing an illegal restraint upon our rights of ingress and egress and who perhaps could have used their time in a place Where ,it was more needed by being at their domicile performing the household duties of daily necessity. December S, 1925. The Class of '28 made its social debut with a Sophomore Fall lirolic at the Community Club. VVith a good attendance and the presence of the spirit-- On with the dance. let joy be unconfinedu-a merry time was had by all. December 14, 1925. A 6 o'clock turkey dinner was held at the Savoy Hotel by members of the Junior Class and was attended by a substantial number. Yes, sir, real turkey' and lots of it. lloyl those eats were good. Various members of the class made shortrinformal talks pro and con on class policies, and discussed in general all matters of class interest. l.aughter was almost continuous during the evening due to the steady flow of bright remarks from the 'lwise crackers. ln answer to an inquiry as to how' one of the boi? passed the bar exam, we were told that his answer was, XXX-ll, you just got to know your stuff. The dinner provided much enjoyment and lots of good eats and aided greatly in the promotion of good fellowship and class spirit. lycCUut,,:,- 19 1925. :X merry time was offered by the lfreshmen with their Lihrist- m.,Q Lpmu. at the Iqqk o' l.antern. lt was complete with novelties and red hot music, .. . ,- l7.t1 The Freshman class itself being the largest and the dance being well supported by the other classes, it was at big event and those who failed to attend missed a wonderful time. january 20, 1926. The Senior Class piovided a splendid evening of entertainment with at dance at the Ambassador Roof Garden. The big crowd filled every bit of space and taxed the roof to capacity. The splendor of the Garden and the dimmed colored lights together with exceptional music, made a captivating atmosphere. All the classes gave their hearty support and many members of the faculty attended. Too much could not be said of this event. February 22, 1926. The Annual Wasliington Day Banquet of the Kansas City School of Law was held at the Muehlebach Hotel on Monday evening, February 22d, the birth- day of the Father of our country. A large number attended and were furnished an eve- ning full of enjoyment. More concerning the banquet will be found in other pages of this section. March 6, 1926. The Junior Class held their Spring Frolic at the New President Hotel. The dance was held in the junior Assembly Room, which proved none too large to accommodate the crowd which attended. Good music was furnished and the dance pro- vided a very delightful evening of entertainment. March 24, 1926. The second big event of the year for the Sophomore Class was their Moonlight Dance on the roof garden of the Ambassador Hotel. The students turned out in a large number to support the event which was successful in every way. March 31, 1926. In the Congress Assembly Room of the Hotel President the Senior Class staged their second big dance of the year. Only very bad weather prevented a record attendance but a substantial number attended and it was a big night for the Class of '26, April 15, 1926. The third annual Pandex Ball of the Kansas City School of Law was held on the twelfth floor of the New President Hotel. There was no room to spare and it was without exaggeration the greatest ball ever given by the school. More about it will be found elsewhere in this section. l74l Wafhingfon Day Banque! CR twenty-first annual XYashington's Birthday llanquet was held in the Colonial llall Room of the llotel Muehlehach on Monday night. February 22, 1926, and the occa- sion was marked hy a goodly attendance of students, faculty members, alumni and friends of the school.

HE Third Annual Pandex Ball of the Kansas City School of Law was held in the Congress Assembly Room of the Hotel President on Thursday night, April 15th, l926, Some five hundred couples including many members of the faculty gatlrered together for the school's biggest social event. The Pandex Ball committee consisting of Mr. Gould, Mr. Gabriel, and Mr. Beedle, all of the junior Class, upon whom was cast the responsibility of the event bore their burden well and were rewarded for their many hours of earnest endeavor by having the llall pro- nounced by all as being the greatest ever staged by the School. Hy nine o'clock, the scheduled starting time, many had appeared and as time passed more and more arrived until we began to wonder if the spacious Congress Room and lobby would be sufficient to accommodate all who came. The Ball was primarily a dance featuring the crowning of Miss Ruth Laitner as Pandex Queen. The music was furnished by Earl Colemanls Qrchestra and real music it was. The good music and wonderful ballroom made dancing very pleasant and en- joyable. The dances were so good few missed any and the floor was crowded con- tinuously. At 10:30 we heard with joy the announcement that we were to see at that time the crown placed upon the head of the one whom fate had decreed should be Pandex Queen of 1926. What a rush for positions of advantage. The crowd formed a lane leading from the north door to the throne at the east end of the room. All who could not get into the front ranks stood on chairs in the rear. The Queen's procession entered led by Miss Vera Harris and Miss Rose Redmond, both former queens, as maids of honor and then the Queen, our beloved Queen followed by Master Paul Schwartz, the little crown bearer, Miss Gladys Barnes, Miss Louise Law, Miss Frances Turpin and Miss Elizabeth VVilson, all maids of honor. The Queen ascended the throne, which was beautifully banked with flowers, amid the applause of those who had gathered to witness her corona- tion. Hon, john B. Pew, that veteran coronator of queens, was honored again this year with that duty. He paid high compliments to our Queen who sat upon the great plush throne in an atmosphere of dignity and splendor. Mr. Pew stated he had known her since childhood, that nature had endowed her with the characteristics of a queeng that she was even born a queen. The beautiful jeweled crown, with all the honor attached there- to, was placed upon her head and we beheld the Queen of 1926. All hail the Queen! On with the dance until one when we reluctantly departed. Members of the faculty and students unanimously declared it the greatest Pandex Ball in the history of the School. Too much praise cannot be given for it was really wonderful. Nothing marred the evening and the way the program went off showed careful planning by the committee. l76l Class of '27-you, who are charged with such big tasks. have worked ardently, nobly and have done your work well.

This law school romance. beginning at the opening of the 1924-25 school year, culminated in marriage at Liberty, Mo., Saturday, january 9, 1926. Dr. H. C. Wlayman.

Any one of the class queens could well have represented the school at its annual ball. To have been chosen from such keen competition and to have received this highest of honors was :t fitting tribute and compliment to the grace, beauty and queenly characteristics with which Miss Laitner is endowed. Our Queen was one to whom each one of us could willingly, justly and proudly pay homage! All hail the Queen! Miss Laitner is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Laitner, 215 East Seventy-fifth street. She was graduated from West- port High School, this city, and just before coming to the Law School attended Lindenwood College at St. Charles, Missouri, for two years. Her many friends, both in the school and outside, join in extending felicitations on her deserved recognition by the student body. , ISCI f LW Egfr ?!w,xflq 'qXg Mmx xi i ,lf arf' F W vgnw' , ww A W' H' 5 WWW ff,,x, p, ly k IIHITRF11 'wings' V.-md ff -7 5573.315 ..

Timidly, the freshmen contributed their share of the evening entertainment and in due time the Sophomores were heard as th-:y expounded their theories, which were soon attackd by the Class of '27, which contains many of the old-timers of the first team of previous years. The formal debate staged by the two teams picked hy judges showed much talent and promise for the coach to develop into victorious teams. The affirmative team, captained hy William Mcllflahan, and including David ll. Logsdon. Frank Turner and Jesse A. Payne, met the famous negative, captained by Jimmy Reeves, with the help of his col- leagues, Elmer Hodges, Arthur Schmalfeldt, and Earl Hopkins, who won the decision of the judges and had the honor of winning their first encounter of the season. Vile a1'e proud to say that the negative teams of the school finished a very strenuous season without defeat. 'llhe following evening Dudley Houtz.XVill1er Mabry. Frances Turpin and Richard Greenlee upheld the affirmative against lfclward Donahue, XVarren liarharl, Ira Childers and joseph R. Knight. After much discussion :md criticism, and numerous suggestions and recommenda- tions lw the judges, the following teams were selected to represent the school for the year 192526.

March Zncl found two of our old reliable orators on deck, namely, VVilber Mabry and Iludley l-loutz, but in spite of their hard fought battle the decision was given to Ken Hamer and Max Huebner of the K. 'l'. C. of Emporia. By this time the negative team had whipped into shape and on March 12th the l'ark College team, which was considered by debate followers as a strong contender for a championship squad, went down to defeat at the hands and oratory of Jimmy Reeves and his colleagues, Elmer Hodges and Warren Earhart. VVe do not hesitate to announce that the affirmative team lost the decision to the College of Emporia March 19, and We hereby extend to that team our congratulations for winning the National Championship at the National Pi Kappa Delta Tournament at Estes Park, Colo. On the morning of March 20, Vivian E. Phillips and the negative team, composed of James Reeves, Elmer l-lodges, Warren Earhart and VVilliam McMahan, invaded the home town of William Allen White and were met at the train there by a delegation of ladies and escorted safely to their hotel. To the astonishment of the home town folk of Em- poria the decision in this debate was for the Law School, making this the second annual defeat for the K, S. T. C. by the Law School. Following the debate the team and coach were guests of the Lambda Phi Delta Sorority and a great time was enjoyed by all. Kan- sas City Law debaters will long remember the cordial hospitality which they received at the College and also at the Lambda Phi house, March 24th is another historical date in the record of our negative team. lt was in this debate that James Reeves, Elmer Hodges and Warren Earhart again covered them- selves with glory, and again our flag climbed to the top of the mast when the judges an- nounced the decision over the famous William Jewell team from Liberty. Of course we cannot always win, for that would rob the game of its fascination. so March 25th found the Affirmative team at Liberty against lfVilliam Jewell negative squad, to whom they lost the decision. ' The all school teams as picked by the coach and faculty debating committee are as follows: Affirmative Negative Dudley l-loutz XVilber Mabry David Logsdon Jesse A. Payne James D. Reeves Elmer R.

Time: September 23, l9.ZS, o:5ll p. m. l'lut't': Tea Cup lnn, , This was the invitation received by the eight first team debaters from our coach, Yivian E. l'hillips, and at that time sexen of the followers of the VYelvsterian art assembled and partook of a wonderful meal which was prearranged hy our host, Mr. Phillips, and as the last evidence of dessert was stricken from the records, the small group Illll0lTl3flC3lly and congenially came into an organiza- tion which we hope will lite forever with the Kansas City School of Law, because this was thc beginning of an organization to be known through all time as THE llEll.-XTE COUNCIL UF THE KANSAS CITY SCHOOL OF I..-NNY, Matty are the oratorical battles in which these eight students have participated side by side, doing their best to see that the dear old LANY SVHCOL should always stand at the top of thc list in the history of college debating. Feeling this fraternal spirit which has grown through many verbal battles in the past two years, this ambitious group soon shaped itself into an organization and elected its first set of officers for the years of 1925-26. James ll. Reeves, one of the foremost deliaters and speakers, was elected president, and lludley Houtz, who not only represents the Kansas City School of Law hut also the Kansas City -lunior Col- lege, and represented that school very nobly at the national convention of l'i Kappa Delta at Estes Park, was elected vice-president. Frances Turpin, our only girl intercollegiate delvatcr at this time, was elected secretary-treasurer. Mr. l'hillips was unanimously declared a member of the council in the capacity of sponsor. The charter metnbers of the Council are: james ll. Reeves, XYilliam O. McMahan, XYilber Mabry, Dudley Houtz, joseph R. Knight, Edward T. Donahue, Elmer ll. Hodges attd Miss Frances Turpin and Mr. Vivian Eric Phillips as sponsor. The purpose, as set forth in the constitution, of this council shall be to promote debating in the school and to give proper awards and recognition to those deserving such in the debate work of the school, Our emblems are not as yet ready for display but XN'm. McMahan, who was appointed to design the crest and pin, has submitted his design, which has been unanimously adopted, Every charter member has had success in debate in the school and many new names will be chosen from the teams of this year. NYilliam Mchlahan and -lames Reeves both won a place on the intercollegiate team in their Freshman year and both passed through that year as well as the Sopho- more year without defeat and jimmy Reeves has just passed his third year without defeat. NYilher Mabry and lludley Houtz have both been exceptionally good as affirmative men on the school teams, Edward llonahue, while only with' us for one year, was a valuable man on the teams and is doing good work this year at XN'illiam Dlewell. XYe can easily say that Elmer Hodges nas one of the strong- est pillars during his work on the undefeated team this year. XYe feel that this has been a season of success for the council and invite the student body to work hard in connection with the debate coach so that next year we may have a larger and stronger membership.

H15 Law School should feel proud of its quartet, for the members are surely talented, and their performance at the Vt'ashington llay banquet is evidence that they can put out the stuff. The quartet was organized on lJeeember1S, 1925, for the purpose of preparing for the numbers to be sung at the banquet. Frnest l'. C. Moss was the prime moxer, and the members recognized his genius for organization by selecting him as Business Manager. Mr. Rea was a member of the Unixersity of Missouri Glee Club during the years of 1921, 1922 and 1925. l-le was also a member off the Glee Club Quartet. Mr. Kncera has had long experience in choir and quartet singing and also as a soloist. Mr and was formerly a member of the Hayden Hale Ottley Cranston, was for four years in St. l'aul's Grand Avenue Temple choir, After several unsuccessful attempts, the first who had been chosen director, where the members XN'inkler is a former pupil of Mr. john R. Jones Chorus. Xlr. Moss, a former pupil of Professor Episcopal church choir and for two years in the meeting' was held at the home of Mr. Kucera, sang ox er a few numbers, argued and had a gofid time generally. Out of all the confusion and harangue, howex er, harmony was attained and it was agreed that Kentucky Babe and the Hay song should be sung at the banquet. The Hay song gave the quartet a chance to get in some digs on the quiz masters, but if those worthies were hurt and ehagrined, they at least kept from breaking out in subs and tears at the time. One of the members, Mr. Kueera, sang a solo and so loud was the acclamafion of the audience that he had to encore four times. All in all, the debut performance was very successful, and seemed to be appreciated. The members of the quartet this year are all Sophomores, but nest year we hope to see other elassmen hid for a place in the quartet, so to carry on the work after the present members have left the school, for it certainly fills a long-felt need it the life of the school. 1801 folws Club 'I a nttettng ht-lvl lfrulat, tht' l9th of Xlarch, 10241, tlte XX'olt'es liluli was officially organized.

On that day the cornerstone of our new school build- ing was laid and a new epoch in the history of this institution of legal learning begun, In the cornerstone, before it was sealed, the roll of graduates, two thousand strong, the names of some seven hundred students and names of the faculty, a copy of the 1925 Vandex and the original charter of the institution granted in 1895 were placed.

May those whose high 'responsibility it shall be to teach here. and those whose privilege it shall be to sit at their feet and learn. be ever moved to promote wise and just laws that shall improve the condition of society, and make the transactions of man with man liberal, unselfish and brotherly.

Dean al the C!1I'IlC1'Jf0IlC' laying of the new Law School Building Y THIS ceremony we dedicate the building we are erecting here to the loftiest human uses. lYe who teach here and those who are taught here come together profoundly believing that the law is the foundation of every public and private rightg that, with- out it, there can he no stable government, no liberty and no progress in the affairs of men: that the greatest and the smallest must come under its control and its protection. Vlle know well we should be unfaithful to ourselves if we did not make its study, as far as it is within our power to make it, in dignity, in honor and in breadth, the loftiest of human pursuits. Since the judgments of men are many. and too often inconsiderate, what greater work can be engaged in than the constant study of the highest wisdom and the highest morality that can be applied to the affairs of humankind. 1 There will he in the future, as there have been in the past, imperfections in the writing, declaration and administration of the law. These experience and high study will gradually correct. To the work of remedying these things the youth who gather here will be com- mitted. How great is the need, then, that the study of the law should be accompanied by pat- riotism and a sincere ambition to understand it in its applications, influences and limita- tions, making it and treating it, as it should be made and treated, as the noblest and broad- est of all sciences. lt must raise itself above commercialism and vulgar ambitions. lf any of the members of our profession do not occupy the just place or exert the worthy influence they should, they, and they alone, are to blame. They have wholly mis- understood the character of their profession. They have done worseg they have debased it. This school of law had its origin, in a high sense, in idealism. lt was then, and is, strongly believed that the rules laid down for the conduct of men, rules chiefly originating with our profession, must be lifted to the highest plane, and its noblest ethics should be con- trolling in all it does. The ambition of this school has been, and we trust it always will be, to not only in. spire those who seek to qualify themselves for a useful and necessary place under our form of government with high purposes, hut also to teach all who may gather here to so respect and honor the work in which they are engaged that the work may he the best of its kind. lt is fitting that we should here gratefully recognize the assistance that has been ex- tended to us from the beginning by the leading members of our highest courts and of the llar in Missouri, Kansas and elsewhere in the work in which we are engaged. They have been our constant friends. VVithout profit to themselves, they have at all times helped to improve and exalt our work. They have helped to inspire in the minds of those who have eome here. the wealthy and poor alike. the ambition to be true to the moral tenets of an l93l exacting profession. They have shown their sympathy for and given their aid to the youth of high merit and ambition who, struggling against difficulties. desire to prepare themselves for the loftiest and most needed work in our civil life. We are, by the very work in which we are engaged, above all, the sworn defenders of the American Republic. We are the defenders of its Constitution, the most valuable docu- ment written in the world's civil historyg we are the defenders of its institutions, state and national, and of its international relationsg we are the defenders of the smallest rights of the individual, as well as the most importantg and we are the defenders of its great public and private concerns which have arisen in our land and which give constant proof of the value of our Republic. All these things impel us to pledge our loyalty to our Republic to the end of time. Let us, when from time to time we look upon our legend on our portals and our walls, remember that the worth and dignity of the law is what we make itg so that, with pride, we can always say that it embodies the highest conception of right, justice and honor that human intelligence can establish. Then we can justly proclaim: Lex omnium im'1:m, rivilium cf privaformiz, fmidamcizmm. effddreyy of Dean 5. D. 67125011 F ARE laying the cornerstone of a building today which is being dedicated to the public. VVe are building strong and well a building that will endure through following generations. We are indebted to Wilkinson and Crans for the architectural work and to john Long of the Long Construction Company for the construction of the building. When we organized in 1895, a small room in the annex of the New York Life building was sufficient for our needs, while today we have over seven hundred students and will occupy this entire building before which we are now standing. The construction is such that by enlargements we can accommodate twice the present number of students. Our endowment is the conscientious, self-sacrificing work of our Faculty and the whole- hearted loyalty of our Alumni and students. It was the boast of Augustus Caesar that he found Rome of brick and left it of marble. lt is our declaration that we are erecting a shrine where principles of justice and liberty will be taught, and through our efforts we will do our part towards preserving the Republic. l94l i. r it a 7 is gt fi -3 A e f i Ja'dre.r.s' 0 011.

The laying of the cornerstone today marks the greatest event in our history, my friends. lt commemorates the fulfillment of a glorious dream of the founders of this law schoolg a dream that had its beginning over thirty years ago at a time when grim necessity drove us so hard to keep us a hgoing concern that that dream threatened to turn into a nightmare, in those days. But we had courage a-plenty. We had faith. We had energy, the energy of youth. XVe had ambition, the ambition to build a great law school here that would take rank with the greatest law schools of our country., and we have won! VVe sensed clearly the need of a high class law school in Kansas City and we felt that such a public enterprise as ours could be administered successfully to meet this oublic want here.

Ufa'a're55 of Jlfzznzf Qojfle Prcsidvn! of the Kazlrar City Bm' As.v0rir11i011 HICN I entered the Kansas City School of Law as a student in 1902 it occupied two small rooms in the old Ridge building on Main street. To those who are familiar with the small quarters occupied by the school in those days. the contrast with this splendid building is very great. And, while we may with these appropriate ceremonies lay the cornerstone of this building today, as a matter of fact the real cornerstone of this institution was laid back I95I there in those days of heroic and patient toil and self-sacrifice on the part of those men uf whom Judge Powell has spoken so eloquently today and of which number he was one. There has been built into it all of that toil and self-sacrifice, and all of the high ideals of those men who worked so long and against such great odds. There has been built into it all of the midnight oil burned by its students who have labored to complete their courses with credit to themselves and to the school. The spirit of all these things has gone into the institution, because these inen have always realized that unless it was built in such 11 spirit they would labor in vain who sought to build it, and, so the Kansas City School of l.aw has become one of the recognized educational institutions of the Middle VVest, a school of which not only Kansas City and the state of Missouri, but this entire Middle West, may well be proud. ' This school has been the door of opportunity to hundreds of ambitious young men and women, who might otherwise never have been able to secure a p1'0pCI' training in the lawg men and women, who by reason of the training secured at this school, have become representative members of their profession and taken their places as leaders in their re- spective communities. On behalf of the Bar Association I want to congratulate the officers of the school and the members of the faculty on their magnificent achievements and on this splendid build- ing, the cornerstone of which is being laid today, and to wish them in the future an in- creased measure of that remarkable success and growth which has been thei1's in the past.

Holland President of thc' Kansas City Clzamber of Commerce HE previous speaker impressed me very much when he said that the Kansas City School of Law started in 1895 with 27 students and that today we have a school with a Faculty of 53 people, 500 students and some 2,500 in the Alumni. Many of our leading citizens are graduates of this school. Kansas City should be proud of its Law School and the men who are hack of this school can always be depended on to help in those things which are for the best interest of Kansas City. These same men have always played an important part in the work of our Chamber of Commerce. l am glad to participate in the laying of this cornerstone. You are building for the future. Kansas City is in the center of the greatest agricultural section of the world. This city is destined to he just what you and I make it. You men of vision who are responsible for this institution of learning are making a great contribution to this section toward an educational center. You have made no mistake, we are going aheadg your faith in Kansas City is well founded. wot ., .,,, - lm , i 1 - ,Q .-',- off' Eff - '- ffl ,wr lv - , , .:'-1 ,ff Qx 4101 Q , , f...- . ,f fu 0 xt I Q ' A 'gg' W5 Q -T 'e-, 'M X I, 1 -1- , . l 1 ,,,, , ,V-J.

Adams, nl. Francis O'Sullivan, Patrick Carr with his usual contribution of stories from the HAuld Sod and Fred Staker, who sponsored our senate at the University of Illinois. Of course we had to have a toastmaster and as we have a most experienced man for the job, it was the duty of Mac to officiate. The closing talk was made by Jack Manard as no party would be a success without a few words from Jack Following the rush party there has been a continual hum of action. The social conif mittee arranged for many parties, among the most outstanding being the May Day dance at Mission Hills and our Midsummerparty. Thanksgiving Day had to be celebrated, so llrick and his committee arranged another party at the Bellerive which was well attended hy the alumni brothers. The next matter of importance was the National Convention at St. Paul. We find by the reports that Snyder Senate is one of the leading chapters of Delta Theta Phi and we are proud of our brothers, Ralph L. Adams, Chancellor and Francis O'Sullivan, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, as these are two of the most desirable positions in the national senate. lluring the convention Brother McCaffrey as representative of Snyder Senate submitted a resolution that was a step forward in our progress nationally. A sister pin has been the topic for discussion between Brothers McMahan and Owens for some time past so these brothers, ambitious for the attainment of their goal, worked on several designs and gained the approval of Snyder Senate of a certain design, which when submitted by Brother McCaffrey was adopted by the National Senate. With the coming of the 13th of February we entertained llrewer Senate of the Uni- versity of Kansas with a party at the Bellerive followed by a joint initiation at the K. C. A. C. Sunday, February 14th. Eight pledges of Snyder Senate and five from Lawrence were given the third degree of Delta Theta Phi, thus enlarging our chapter to forty-six active men. But let us not think that the members of our fraternity have not held up the standards of our alma mater in school activities. During the class elections two of our very capable brothers were chosen to lead their class for the year. Earl Vaughan, sophomore president, has a record of which to be proud during the past year as the sophomore class has the honor, through the hard work of the officers and student body, of electing the Hltandex Queen. llrother McCaffrey as senior president has been receiving congratulations dur- ing the year for his splendid work as senior class president. , firm llurine llii 'wrist lliree yi-:Irs lla-l1:i 'lilietzi l'lii. :is ll lwiirly. l12lS Ulf Ul'f1!l l flvlffllv ll' ll ' -,iliiiiil :in-l intel slreiiuuusli' ureeil :ill l7elts tn siippwrt ilelvzite in llie selimil. ,Xninne ilu iniinluis nn the fleluite tennis :ire lYilli:im U.

In fact. they are A pal, a help in every need whose worth is proved in every deed. To produce a better student. a better lawyer, a better school, and serve the higher purpose of imbuing Phi Alpha Delta members with a profound respect and loyalty to our school is the goal for which we are striving. VVe do not say it in a spirit of boastfulness. but we feel that our fraternity is one of the vital elements of which our school is composed. VVe do not mean by this that our members have superior wisdom. scholastic ability or social standing, but that by united and concen- trated effort we. as a unit, are capable of performing notable tasks which could not be completed by an individual or misdirected effort. VVe realize that the fraternity cannot exist without the school, but it is also true that the school is the better for the unfailing loyalty of Phi Alpha llelta to this great educational institution. Let this thought be an inspiration which shall ever linger within the hearts of all. 4- l.lili C.-Xl.l-HDUN RUY C1-Xl.llfJl.'X Editors l9m'im' .S'ro0jv, 1925-1926 Official llouse Urgan llenton Chapter Phi Alpha llelta IIHI F mfermzliym HAT is more natural among students than a desire for the cmnpaniun- ship uf their classmates who are interested in the same branches of stucly?

The extent to which our present standards have been raised beyond those of the past can, in a sense, be measured by the degree to which idealism has been preserved in them. ln science. literature, art. philosophy, and the rest of n1an's enterprises, advancement. if it has come at all. has had as its source true idealism, which has brought about the sheltering and pro- tecting of its lasting virtues. ln none of the affairs of mankind do we find high idealism more perfectly cherished than in the field of law. Governments have come and gone because, politically, they were unsound: their ideals were faulty. XVhere the accepted standards of justice and right have been neglected, the nature of man has ultimately revolted against them, for through- out the ages law has been the supreme science of the protection of humanity and has en- dured because of its everlasting truth. There can be no question then that law perhaps more than any of the other professions has always been the champion of idealism. This has undoubtedly been true throughout the history of American jurisprudence. However, we are now living in a different age, an age in which high aspiration is steadily losing popular support. Modern science has changed our environment. The lux- uries of yesterday have become the necessities of today. As a people, we pride ourselves on our high standards of living, and yet these very standards have made most of us seekers after material prosperity to the exclusion of the ingredients of life, which tend to develop finer characters. Our American citizenship, founded on the highest type of idealism, is going through a temporary relapse which has been reflected in almost every phase of our governmental and social existence. Wlhat, then, is to be the answer of American lawyers to the challenge of our present- day conditions? As citizens, all of us owe it to our state and nation to use our franchise conscientiously for the furtherance of this country's ideals, but as lawyers, this becomes our own particular responsibility. Lawyers more than ever before are dominating the great fields of business and industry, and their influence in shaping the thoughts of men and women about them is constantly becoming greater. We surely cannot fail to realize the importance of continuing the ideals for which our profession has always stood. Let us seek for something more than selfish material enrichment, remembering the duty we owe to American idealism, which has always had for its defender the legal profession. -james U. Reeves, '27. I ll7 I Mme amz' The .Cgzw Hli causes of crime as given by leading crime investigators and reported by crime enforcement committees are varied and multifarious. The remedies suggested by them are equally so. Not least in importance of these causes is the inadequacy of our criminal code properly to deal with the criminal, and the doubt of apprehension or- pun- ishment in the mind of the transgressorg this latter due to the known inefficiency of our enforcement officers, lt would be well for us, as future lawyers and lawmakers of our country. to under- stand these conditions that are lending themselves to breaking down our criminal law system. A system taken almost bodily from that of England when the founders of our country came over on the Mayflower, and one that England has long since discarded. Chief justice Taft in a recent address before the American Bar Association said, HThe administration of criminal law in this country is a disgrace to civilization. The following figures, compiled by reliable investigators, will give an idea of the vast prevalence of crime in our country as compared with that in other countries. There were 151 cases of manslaughter in England and VVales in 1923, population 38,000,000 ln the United States with 100,000,000 population there were 10,000 cases of manslaughter, Rob- bery is one hundred times as prevalent in Chicago as it is in London. In New York the ratio is tbi1'ty to one, There were 17 murders in London in 1922, all were solved. ln New York for the same period there were 260 mu1'ders and three comfictions. ls it any wonder then that our criminal population is so greatly on the increase, with the gains to be had so great, and the chances of detection, not to speak of conviction, so slim? lt cannot he doubted that much of the blame for the ineffective administration of criminal justice in the United States must be borne by our police system. The police in many instances have been found to be corrupt and be composed of criminal members. So long as this condition remains we cannot hope for progress, for of primary importance in dealing with the criminal is, of course, that he first be apprehended. Bringing the criminal to justice often entails a great many delays and consequent hard- ships upon the state and its witnesses. A clever criminal lawyer can delay the trial of a cause for a great many months. In the meantime the accused is out on bail plying his illicit trade, and oftentimes justice is entirely defeated when ,the criminal skips bail and the bond is found to be uncollectable. Our police records show that many criminals, appre- hended inthe commission of some felony, have been previously indicted for as high as seven or eight similar offenses and are out on bail, awaiting trial for these. VVe can well imagine what percentage of the crimes of today are due to that pernicious rule that compels a judge to grant bail in all but capital offenses. A means of combating this evil would be so to change our code as to give a trial judge discretionary power in the granting of bail and absolutely to refuse it to men with known criminal records. The suggestion that fur- nishing bond for compensation be made illegal has received a great deal of favorable com- ment and it is being looked upon as an efficient manner of checking the growing misuse of bail. may lturing the trial of the cause, the ridiculous presumption that a known crim- inal. eangln red-hznnled in the commission of a crime, is innocent until conclusively prorefl guilty. places the State at a disadvantage. Throughout the trial the situation is the same. The criminal lawyer, usually a great deal more efficient than the State prose- cutor. plays upon the emotions and sympathies of the jurymen, often grossly rnisrepresents facts and always attempts to mislead them. The judge, meanwhile, is powerless to inter- fere: he sees what is going on but can take no actual part in the trial. In England. the situation in this respect is a great deal different, The trial judge refuses to allow dis- honest testimony, advises the jury on the facts as he sees them and advises them what to find, meanwhile admonishing them to use their own judgment in the disposition of the case. The most discouraging feature of our present system of criminal administration is the matter of reversals on so-called teclvnicalities. A jury finds a man guilty of a crime and he is sentenced to penal servitude for a number of years. What can be the feelings of the jurymen when they read a few months later that this criminal has been set free to continue his career of crime? The higher court reversed the decision because one of the jurymen had been improperly summoned. The late Vioodrow VVilson in a speech before the American liar Association had to say in this regard, HThe 'actual miscarriages of justice because of nothing more than a mere slip in a phrase or a mere error in an imma- terial form, are nothing less than shocking. Their number is incalculable, but much more incalculable than their number. is the damage they do to the reputation of the profession and to the majesty and integrity of the law. The suggestion that a uniform criminal code be adopted by the several states is one worthy of the earnest attention of the legislators. lt is imperative to the future welfare of this country that our laws and system be changed so as adequately to cope with the pres- ent crime wave. The changing of our criminal laws and the increased efficiency of criminal justice that will follow will not, however, of themselves,wholly remedy this situation. There must also be a change in the attitude of the general public, and more particularly of a great many lawyers, towards the matter of law enforcement. Before demanding of our execu- tive and judiciary officials a greater efficiency in law L'lIfU?'I't'Hlt'l1f, we must first consider it our essential duty to practice law ofzscrvjanfcj to take a certain pride in complying with its dictates instead of trying to heat it. Once that condition prevails we shall see a marlted reduction in the number of crimes reported in the daily press. -ll. Bl. Ashell.

H. llean, .ludge Elmer N. Powell and the writer, still with us and actively engaged in the Law School work. it may be well to write down while we still have it in mind some of the historical facts in connection with the school. The first meeting of the school was held in September. 1895, at quarters consisting of one room on the second floor of the east wing of the New York Life building. ln 1898 we moved to the main floor of the same building and in 1899 to the second floor of the New Ridge building, on Main street between Ninth and Tenth streets. ln 1911 we moved to the Nonquit building at 1013 Grand avenue, at which time we occupied half of the fifth floor of that building, and in 1921 the growth of the school was such that we expanded oui' quarters, occupying the entire fifth floor. lt has long been our desire to have our own building, devoted entirely to our own uses. and for some time we have been looking around for a desirable location. ln order to find a place that would be accessible to the greater majority of the students, we put out a questionnaire among the students and found that a location between VVyandotte and Locust streets and Eighth and Twelfth streets would suit the convenience of a great majority of the students, and therefore, concentrating within this location, we finally decided on property on Baltimore avenue between Ninth and Tenth streets, which we acquired in 1925. The active interest of the Faculty and the loyal support of the Alumni, students and friends of the school enabled us to finance the construction of a new building, plans of which were prepared by Willciitson 8: Crans, architects, and the construction work is now being done by Long Construction Company, all of this city. The building will be entirely completed by the middle of next summer and ready for occupancy at the begin- ning of the next school year in September, 1926. The entire property will represent an investment of about 5'5200,000. The building is absolutely fireproof, of concrete and steel construction, so built that several additional stories may be added to take care of all future needs and growth of the school. The exterior is built of Bedford stcne and buff brick, of a beautiful architectural design, with an interior to match, being finished in marble, quarter-sawed oak and walnut. The school will occupy the entire building and will not only have large and cornmodious lecture rooms but will be a real home for the students and alumni, with a splendid library. comfortable lounging rooms and a place where the students may hold their class meetings and entertainments. liven in this age of rapid organization and progress it is hardly possible for an insti- tution of merit to spring full-armored into the arena. lt requires years of experience to perfect an institution and to reveal the weak or strong' points of any plan. This is especially true of an institution of learning. Our growth has been a gradual develop- ment :ind has been, we believe. a growth of progress, as shown by the lengthening and iizii strengthening of the course of study. the increase in the numbers of the lfaculty and students in attendance. As originally organized, the curriculum covered a course of two years. This was extended in 1902 to three years and in 1920 to four years. 'l'he first year there were fifty- seven students, with a Faculty of eight, while this year we have a total attendance of over seven hundred, with a Faculty of fifty-two members. lVe have in mind from the founding of the school that students undertaking the study of law should be brought as much as possible into constant contact with the practical part of the profession, so that their practical and theoretical knowledge might progress together. The Faculty has included most of the great lawyers of the bar of Greater Kansas City and many of the judges of the Supreme Courts of ltlissouri and Kansas, and now includes as a part of its teaching force the tive Fede-ral -ludges with headquarters in Greater Kan- sas City. The Faculty. the members of which are constantly engaged in the exercise of their profession. bring to the classroom the fresh results of everyday contact with the administration of the law. Many of the students are located in law offices in the city and spend the hours out of the classroom work in learning the details of practice. the opera- tions of courts and the general duties of the advocate and of the counselor. First and foremost in building up and maintaining a school is a strong Alumni associa- tion. lt is the bulwat'k of success of any school. We have been especially fortunate in the character of men and women who have entered our school and received our diplomas. Our students have not only done good work while in the school but have been loyal supporters since graduation. Our graduates are men and women of high character and have already taken high rank at the bar of this and other states and I constantly hear of their being elected or appointed to positions of the highest honor and trust as judges, state and United States attorneys, and members of State Legislatures and members of Congress. There are now over fifteen hundred graduates, who are scattered all over this country from the New Fngland States to the Pacific Coast, in the Philippine lslands, Panama and l'orto Rico, and through their success, glory and fame are being shed daily upon their .-Xlma Mater. the Kansas Cily.School of Law. LEGAI. DUTY OF ATTORXICY TO CLIENT ln whatever branch of his profession a lawyer is employed, he is understood as con- tracting with his client that he possesses such a degree of learning, capability, and skill as is commonly found in an ordinarily good practitioner, and that he will exert himself in the client's business with a proper and reasonable amount of care, activity. and prudence. He does not undertake to make extraordinary and unreasonable exertions, nor does he guarantee that success shall invariably crown his efforts. Neither must he be understood as representing himself to be gifted with that measure of sagacity and learning which is attributable only to the most eminent members of the profession, unless he unreservedly assumes the management of affairs of such vital importance and inherent difficulty as should only be intrusted to eminent counsel. But if he is found lacking in the knowledge and capability which are ordinarily and reasonably expected of any reliable attorney. whereby his client suffers a lossg or if he fails to exercise an ordinary and proper degree of diligence and attention, he makes himself liable for the results.-From .f1mt'rit'un lam' ft't'T'ft'TS', lN4Q7.H itzzi plfflflf Silo!! We Take Wilh Us From 7726 School? LfNl2 Z, 1926, will see the largest class that the Kansas City School of Law has ever graduated, hold its commencement exercises and go out into the world to practice in the great profession of the l.aw. :Xt this season it seems meet that we who are to be graduated on that day. and we who have yet to prepare a little further for our degree, pause and consider the benefits we are receiving and shall receive from our course of study. Surely. if we have applied ourselves to our studies with that degree of earnestness and enthusiasm which the high character of our subjects demands and merits, we have ac- quired at least a working-knowleclge of some of the fundamental branches of that great field of wisdom, the l.aw. For we have not lacked in competent instruction. The fac- ulty of the School is composed of selected members of a bar long noted for lawyers well versed in the law. They are not merely professors who look upon the Law as a system of abstract principles, the theoretical consideration of which is good exercise for the brain and fits in well in rounding out one's classical education!they are practicing law- yers, every one of them, who every day are seeing and helping guide the machinations of that system whose intricate principles they are explaining to students at night in the School. Our school may not be the best school for a theoretical study of the Law, but for the stu- dent who wishes to work hard and acquire a practical insight into the fundamentals of a Law which is in operation every minute, upholding human rights and vindicating wrongs, this school ranks with the hest in the country. This would seem to be proved by the great number of its graduates who have achieved notable success in the profession and in businesses where their knowledge of the l.aw has proved useful. The student cannot but have a deeper respect for the majesty of the Law and for the Profession, which upholds and administers it, from having attended the School and heard and observed its instructors. At this time, when the press seems to be doing all it can lu shake the confidence of the people in the efficacy of our laws and govern- mental system, when lecturers and writers seldom fail to get in their jibes about the failure of the l.aw to cope with present-day conditions, many lose confidence and begin to nonder if. perhaps. our theory of government is not out-worng if radical changes would not bring about more desirable conditions. Flut students of the l.aw. who have read Illackstone. Kent, Greenleaf and those other fine old writers. who have seen in their works something more than an exposition of the law as relating to specific cases, who have caught the fine philosophy which those works breathe, know that the only reason the I.aw is not perfect is that it has been compiled by humans, and so is subject to in- snffitiencies. They have learned how some of the most fundamental rights of citizens were first rt-cognizerl and how new rights and obligations have been realized as civilization proeresst-fl, and they see the l.aw today as ever-progressive, keeping step with the condi- tions of society. They are convinced that the Law is justg that it affords justice to all who dt-port themselves honorably and diligently, and that the great need of society today E- ,f :git-:.ttr respect for, and a more implicit obedience to. the l.aw.

XVe shall take away with us the acquaintanceship of our fellow-students and the close friendship of some with whom we have come into more intimate contact. Were this the only benefit which we receive for our time and money spent in the school, we should be able to count our time and money well spent. lt would be hard to find a more congenial and worth-while class of acquaintances. They are mostly young men and young women who already are affi- liated with the business or professional life of the community, who see in their attendance at the School a chance better to fit themselves for their occupations, or who are C3111- estly studying the Law with a view of actively entering the profession. VVithal, they are men and women of ambition, who are desirous of success, and realize that the price of success is hard work. And they are not afraid to pay the price. One cannot find a more democratic group. all bound together in a sort of freemasonry of common purpose. Each one is recognized on his personal merits, and snobbery is conspicuous by its absence, Old friendships have become closer and new ones have sprung up. Vlle shall realize more every year of our life what this means to each of us. We are grateful when we meet one of our fellow-students on down-town streets or in more out-of-the-way places. As the years go by, we shall see them rise to positions of responsibility and leadership in their respective communities. And whenever we meet them, we may be assured of a warm handclasp and a hearty welcome, for they have all been imbued with that fine sense of fellowship which is characteristic of students of the Kansas City School of Law. -W.

'27, EIGHT HOURS STUDY FOR LAVV SCHOOL MAN Eight hours' study a day. nine hours' sleep a night. and no lunch are the salient fea- tures of the program of Joseph V, Dempsey, who has crashed through three semesters at the College of Law, Syracuse University, for an average of 95 per cent in his scholastic work. Dempsey is a graduate of Vllesleyan University, and the son of a prominent Connecti- cut lawyer. He is 29 years of age, but in spite of his intense application to study and his several years! seniority over the other law students, he is recognized as a 'lreal fellow. Dempsey rises at 6 a. m., has a roll and a glass of milk for breakfast, and doesn't eat again until 6 p. in., when he has dinner. Instead of lunch he takes a shower bath daily at noon. His study periods are from S to 9 a. m.. 12 to 5 and 7 to 9. 1 1241 l 1 7Lm'ge Shepard fczrvlay UR beloved friend and counselor. judge Shepard Barclay, died November 17, 1925. His life was dedicated to the service of mankind in the great profession of the law. Nkhen a young man he was placed on the circuit bench of St. Louis. llefore his term expired. he was called to our Supreme Court. After he became its Chief Justice. he resigned to resume the practice of the law. He had not been in retirement long until he was persuaded to go upon the St. Louis Circuit Court of Appeals. Later he appeared before many courts, state and federal. as the attorney of important legal interests. He was. in the highest sense. a successful man. commanding always the respect and confidence of those with whom he came in contact. He was broadly educated for his work. Hc was graduated from the St. Louis University and later from the University of Virginia in its law department, He then studied in the University of llerlin and also in lfrance, where he familiarized himself with the law. literature and history of those countries. His opinions. while a member of our appellate court. always commanded and always will command a high place in our system of jurisprudence. He did much work outside of the ordinary legal duties of a learned judge and wise counselor and attorney. He was a valuable lecturer on legal subjects. His lectures were clear, direct and comprehensive. He delivered for several years, before the Kansas City School of Law. a course of lectures on Trademarks and Unfair Competition. He showed great learning and ability in the presentation of these subjects. For twenty years he deliv- ered a course of lectures for the young' men of St. Louis on the laws most required by the ordinary business man. His lectures were highly appreciated. and the work he did for thousands of young men in Kansas City and St. Louis, wholly without compensation. has never been forgotten and never will be forgotten by those who heard him. Personally, he was one of the kindest and most attractive of men. His home was the finest expression of hospitality. graciously presided over by his wife, a beautiful character. whose death early in the year preceding his hrought him inexpressible sorrow. His scholarship. wide training at home and abroad, his liberal studies and extensive reading, his fondness for music and the best in literature, made him a most agreeable and interesting companion. His friends were devoted to him. His kindness extended to those in every walk ot' life. and prompted many generous and unusual acts of kindness to those who needed his consideration. He was the benefactor of many. and his memory will be cherished always by those he aided. Nature and circumstance greatly favored him, and nobly did he fulfill the work which high opportunity gave him to do. --C Jhver ll, I lean. I 125 1 The World Court H E United States is now a member of the Permanent Court of International justice subject to ratification of our reservations by the other members, but that fact does not make our membership right. Theprinciple remains, and the principle is wrong. Our participation has been brought about by a flood of so-called peace propaganda, sponsored by Edwa1'd Bok, who gained his reputation as a statesman by publishing a maga- zine devoted to Crocheting and sentimental love stories. This propaganda has been finan- cially supported by the great international banking houses of New York. lt is vitally important to these interests that the United States become more closely associated with Europe, so that nations which lack the capacity to pay the people of the United States. maybe enabled to borrow from the bankers of the lfnited States, to whom no such excuse as lack of capacity to pay is ever made, and by whom it would never be accepted. Senators of both parties support the program outlined by this propaganda, playing Brutus to Wall Street's Cassius, and, thank God, senators of both parties have stood fast for America and have brought the question to the people, so that we may have an oppor- tunity to decide whether we will remain citizens of the United States of America or barter our heritage for citizenship in the United States of the VVorld. lt would seem paradoxical to say that a man was a nationalistic internationalist, but so these idealists would have us believe they are. I do not believe that anyone can be a loyal American and advocate the imposition of a supernational power over his own country. l prefer Trotzky to Rok, Lenine to Lenroot. I prefer those who honestly and openly sup- port their views. mistaken though they may be, to those who run with the hare and hunt with the hounds, those who would sacrifice their country upon the altar of internation- alism while pretending to be loyal Americans. We have been gradually wiping out our state boundary lines, replacing local with federal government, and now the Senate would erase the Atlantic and the Pacific. State lines are artificial and imaginary but the seas are real, and the Senate will fail, as did Canute, the Danish king of England, who attempted to stem the tides by royal command. The people of the United States have voted 16,000,000 to 9,000,000 against membership in the League of Nations, and now the Senate of the United States votes 76 to 17 for our entry into the League. For we are in the League when we are in the Court. We cannot be a part of a part without being a part of the whole. The situation in which we now find ourselves is best explained by Senator Johnson of California: HVVe are wholly out of the League. We are in part of the League. By reservations, we are out of the part of the League we are in. The part of the League we are in, and from which by reservations we get out, functions as part of the League with our assistance. lf the World Court is beneficial to America, as the absolute internationalists say, or harmless, as the political time-servers declare, why have the very senators who voted for participation so enmeshed our membership with reservations that we are now neither in nor out? l do not know of any degrees of trustworthiness. lf the nations with which we 11201 are to join are honest. why this suspicion on the part of their friends? lf they are not llotlcst. xxhy join them at all? The nations which are members of the XVorld Court bind themselves to abide by its decisions. 'llhese same nations bound themselves to repay certain sums of money borrowed from the fxmerican people together with interest at agreed rates. They have not kept the one promise. XYhat reason have we for believing that they will keep the other? An appeal to Mars requires no writ of certiorari and proceed- ings may lie begun immediately upon defeat in the lower court. Taken as an abstract principle the world court is a panacea for the evils of war, an ideal method for settling international disputes. Taken as an abstract principle the coni- munistic theory of government is ideal. Should we. therefore, in our search for Utopia. join the Third International, and become a unit in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics? The object of the Cou1't is to apply the rules of international law to the affairs of nations in much the same manner as the rules of municipal laws are applied to the affairs of individuals. The Court hasbeen functioning since 1921. Great Britain, France, Spain and China are among the members. In 1925 British police shot down Chinese students in the streets of Shanghai. Spanish aviators dropped bombs on Riffian villages, the French fleet bombarded Damascus. International law remains the same as it was before the Court was established. The only rule of that law which was ever' consistently observed is still in force, a rule old when the first king was crowned. Might is rightfl and that rule needs no XYorld Court to enforce it. ln selecting' the judges for the court we will be allowed one vote in the electoral body of the League as against seven allowed to Great liritain. This nation is composed of forty- eight sovereign states. two territories and two major possessions. The doniinions of the Hritish Empire occupy about the same position as our territories. their executives are appointed by the home government, and ther have no voice in their international affairs. Yet they are entitled to vote. india, held subject by military occupation, has one vote. Kansas has none. South Africa, with a white population of but one million and a half. has one vote. Missouri has none. The judges elected are necessarily representatives of their several countries. lf they are patriotic citizens they cannot sit inipartially on a question involving the welfare of their fatherlands. lf they are not patriotic they would be unfit to sit as judges on a case of violation of a traffic ordinance. . lllackstone says, lt is but lost labor to say, 'do this, or avoid that.' unless we also declare. this shall be the consequence of your non-compliance. How are tl1e decrees of the Xtorld Court to be enforced? lf unenforcable they are useless. lf enforced by military operations we have jumped from the frying pan into the fire. have substituted certain war for possible war. lf enforced by sanctions authorized by the covenant of the League, the offending nation will be brought to its knees by economic pressure. This sounds very innocent. l have seen war and I have seen famine, in the provinces of Kiangsi and .-Xnhivei, in Central China. when thousands perished from lack of food. I would rather see this nation swept by a bloody war than scourged by famine. Only those who have seen babes and women eating grass and earth can appreciate the true meaning of economic pressure, for it is simply an exchange from the butchering of the strong by battle to the H271 n aml solicitors at their places, duly wigged and gowned, the trial began by the clerk an- nouncing the style of the cause that would be triedg and thereupon he proceeded to call the jurors by name. and with the call of each juror administered the oath to him, except two or three women who were in the jury box, each of whom was excused by defend- :mt's barrister. XYhen the jury was completed-no one having asked any jui'or a single question--the clerk stated to the jury the nature of the charge against the prisoner, and also stated what facts the prosecution would prove by its several witnesses. In the mean- time. no other person apparently had taken any part in the proceedings, but at this point the scene changed, others took charge, and the trial began in earnest. 'llhe first witness being sworn aml placed in the witness stand, on a direct line between the judge and the jury and reasonably near both. the barrister who appeared for the prosecution arose at his seat, with brief in hand, and proceeded to ask the witness about the affair under investigation, each question being framed in the most suggestive and leading mannerg but, notwithstanding this. no objections were made to any proceedings during the whole trial, except defendant, at one time, from the dock, attempted to say something. which resulted in a great commotion in court and the complete silencing of the prisoner. After the prose- cution was through with the witness, defendants barrister took him in hand, and in the most polite manner possible, by I1 few wellchosen and very leading questions, seemed to endeavor to strengthen and fill up the weak places in the testimony developed by the prose- cution. It was very noticeable that during the trial the barristers frequently referred to his lordship, and also referred to each other in such terms as my very learned friend, Other witnesses on both sides followed in much the same fashion, the judge frequently taking the witness in hand. and, not so much asking his questions. as declaring the facts to him and securing his assent thereto. The prisoner opened his defense with his owjn testimony. The striking feature of the production of evidence was the absence of any objections by either side, the leading nature of the questions, and the general appearance of perfect fairness, all of which seemed designed, and appeared to have a tendency to show the guilt of the defendant. Vllhen the taking of testimony had closed, all of which consumed no more than one- fourth the time which would have been consumed in a like proceeding in our courts. each barrister-one on either side-arose in turn and, standing at his seat, rehearsed the testi- mony to the jury practically without argumentation, and taking no further notice of con- flicts therein than to tell the jury that his lordship, in his summing up, would deal with such conflicts. All these proceedings, including the examination of several witnesses in the case, charging a statutory felony, consumed the time from 10:30 a. m. to 1:30 p. m., when court recessed until 5 o'clock. for lunch. Un reconvening, the judge summed up. This consisted of a rehearsal of all of the the testimony by the judge, who, after telling the jury that they were the judges of the credibility of the witnesses and the facts proved, proceeded to score the defendant and his witnesses in a most unmerciful manner, even stating to them that the whole defense seemed to him to be a mere tissue of liesl But notwithstanding this, upon their retire- ment, the jury very promptly agreed upon averdict of acquittal, which was received by the court without comment. and apparently without surprise, disappointment, or dissent. After this trial, l talked with the judge who presided, and expressed my surprise that the jury so quickly came to such a radically different conclusion from his owng but he explained that their jurors were very independent and paid very little, if any atten- tion to the opinions expressed by the judges 3 which, however, did not appear to provoke or disturb him in the least. H291 llut has it. llemocracy has lost immense territories,and its position has been visibly weakened in territories which it nominally retains. Vtithal. it seems to have lost ground in the confi dence ot mankind. The case of Russia comes first to mind, that vast territory where we hoped so much and where our disappointment is so complete. A government that went spinning down the toboggan slide of revolution. Italy furnishes another example of territory lost to democracy. Then came the revolutions of Spain. to overthrow its government which was hope- lessly corrupt and incompetent. which meant the collapse of its constitutional govern- ment. Then in line came Austria. Doubtless the heterogeneity of the Austrian population accounts in a way for this failure. but that heterogeneity was precisely the problem which that government was called upon to solve and which democracy failed to solve. Nor are we exempt. There is always heterogeneity, of class or of section, it not of race. and the principle of proportional representation. so often lauded. guarantees no more solution in one case than in another.. It but furnishes the raw material out of which the necessary coherent majority must be built by mutual concession and discipline. Failing this there may be democracy. Init certainly not democratic govermnent. These observations lead to no novel conclusions. The phenomenon is as old as gova ernment itself. XYhat particular principle or practice is it that is wrecking democracy. today. not merely in its tentative stages, as in Russia, but in countries of settled demo- cratic procedure like Italy and Spain, and possibly even in its strongholders like Ilritain and the lfnited States? It is simply the refusal loyally to accept the principle of majority rule. The refusal may come in the form of violation of law from a brazen minority or it may come in the making of law in the filibuster and the minority holdfup. Irrespective ot its form. this minority veto is in essence lawlessness and anarchy and spells doom to democracy without honest acceptance of the will of the majority. The principle of minority veto has wrecked democracy in Italy, in Austria and in Spain. lt is this that menaces democracy in Britain and America. Though the principle of majority rule is basic to our political philosopsy, it is accepted in practice by no section. no party, no class, no militant ideal. The caucus or party con- vention that smooths out difficulties and with infinite patience closes up the ranks of a working majority. is stigmatized as the ma-chineg and the individual who surrenders his hobby to the will of the majority is pilloried as a traitor to principle. Above the clash of self interest and the din of individual opinion, is heard the ex- hortation of the itlealist to stand by your hobby though the heavens fall. Xlhetlier we de- mand :1 Xl orlrl tfourt or a glass of beer, we invoke the same right of minority veto. So il is. that all of us should search our hearts for the answer: lbo we believe in democracy which represents the majority's will. to which we have contributed our share? Ur do we defy that mandate and work to secure selfish ends. or perchance more idealis- tic aims, which will answer our own peculiar complex? XYilber Mabry.

Hlilili is a general hubbub of voices. Many furtive glances at watches. lt is 6:l8 p. ni. and Mr. l.eacy has not yet made his appearance for the weekly battle. Conver- sations are heard embracing every subject that one can imagine from the VVorld.C-mt to the kind of sandwiches that are being served this particular night at lXIike's on the cor- nerg laughter, impatient inquiries as to the whereabouts of Mr. I.eacy--then, at 6:30 en- ters Mr. l.eacy with a quantity of yellow paper under his arm, indicating that there is to be another one of those dearly loved written quizzes. The yellow paper is passed to the students with instructions that each one retain two sheets. An alien in the room would wonder how some members of the class can possibly be eligible to study law when they can't even count Htwof' liach one in the class now has two tor more il sheets of paper. lfach writes his or her name on sheet number one, and the class is now ready for question one. Silence. Mr. Leacy reads question number one. One glance at the faces and you realize there is a vague tif anyl idea as to just what the class is supposed to know about the particular point involved in the question. Some whisperings in the far corners of the room. Then someone requests: HVVill you read that question again please, Mr. Leacy? With patience born of long contact with the Junior class, Mr. Leacy again reads the question. Still a look of general misunderstanding. Then Mr. Leacy kindly qualifies and expounds somewhat. Vilhispered Oh's and then feverish writing for a few minutes. Mr. Leacy asks, Are you ready for the next question? Many ayes'l and few Hnaysf' Mr. Leacy shows signs of impatience and says, I don't want you to write a book on that question. It can be answered in ten words. Someone requests. K'Make it eleven. Mr. Leacy replies, Well, not more than twelve, then-and everyone is satisfied. The class is now ready for question number two. Question number two is read. Someone says, H1 thought that that was what you wanted to know in the first question. More patient explanations by Mr. Leacy accompanied by some gymnastic maneuvers, and after a procedure similar to that which was had in connection with question number one, the class is 1'eady for bomb number three. And, so on. until ten bombs are hurled at the sus- pecting but trusting juniors. The papers are collected. lt is 7 205 p. rn. and Mr. l.eacy begins the oral quiz. l-le calls Mr. A and asks him the first question of the written quiz. Some hesitation on the part of Hr. A, Then, lf I understood the question l would say, yes Much laughter. Mr. Leacy tries to explain. lle finally gets his idea across and Mr. then shows signs of intelligence. Mr. llick Miller does not agree with the answer. He rises and argues the matter with Mr. lieacy. citing a statute and a case as his authority for his stand in the matter. Mr. Leary patiently tries to tell him that there is a decided difference in the principles involved in the question that was asked and the case to which Mr. Miller refeis. Klr. Miller does not see it that way and argues some more. Yomeone in the 11541 1 1 11111 1s11111111s 11111- N111 llIllll111llS gentle vuicci frills, '1Hire il hull.

For the vermin cannot forego hislinstincts. even among his betters. He is generally found, however. and he always begins. in the lowest professional grade. Indeed, he is the troglodyte of the law. He has great cunning. lle mistakes it for intelligence. He is a fellow of infinite pretense. He pushes himself everywhere, and is self-important wherever he goes. You will often find him in legislative bodies. in political conventions. in boards of supervisors, in common councils. He is sometimes there for specific villainyg sometimes on general principles of corruption. waiting on l'rovidence for any fraudulent job. He is always there for evil. The temper of his mind. the habits of his life, make him essentially mischievous. ln all places he is always dishonest. XVhen he cannot cheat for gain he cheats for love. He haunts low places. and herds with the ignorant. lt is his kindly office to set them by the ears. and to feed his vanity and his pocket from the quarrels he incites or foments. He is in everybody's way. and pries into everyhody's business. He meddhles in all things, and is indefatigable in mischief. He is just lawyer enough to be mischievous. He is a living example of l'ope's truth. that a little learning is a dangerous thing. Among his ignorant companions he is infallible in all things. Sometimes he is reserved and sly, with knowing look which gains credit for wisdom and character, for thinking all he does not utter. Gen- erally he is loquacious, demonstrative of his small eloquence. Then his tongue is too big for his mouth. and his mouth is too loose for truth. lly his own account, he is full of law and overflowing. Among his crerlulous dupes he cannot keep it down. He knows all things. Nothing is new to him. Nothing surprises him. Nothing puzzles him. llut it is in the law that his omniscience shows best. His talk is of law incessantly. He has a chronic flux of law, among his followers. He prates law mercilessly to everyone except lawyers. He discourses of his practice and his success to the janitor of his office and the charwoman who washes his windows. He revels in demonstrative absurdity, and boasts of all he never rliil. lle is the guide, philosopher and friend of vicious ignorance. He is the oracle of dullness: And still the wonder grows That one small head can carry all he knows. He hangs much around justice's courts. There he is the leader of the bar. Hut he finds his wav into courts of record. ln them he is a plague to the bar and an offense to the bench. He is flippant, plausible, captions. lll5UlCl'lf- HC is fllll UI Sllllfp PYHCIICC. chic'me sur arise 'md trick He is the privateer of the court, plundering on all hands, on l . , private account. lle is ready' to sell his client or himself.

He is ready to be the coroner of the county, UI' Ill? flliff JUS' UCL, uf the Ulmwl 513105, Hg would be a bore, if it were not too dangerous for that lrirniless function. Ile is a nuisance to the bar and an evil to society. lle is a traucl upon the profession and the public, a lawyer among clowns and a clown among lawyers. lltill There is a variety of the animal, known by the classic name of Shyster. lle has forced the word into at least one dictionary, and l may use it without offense. There is still a lower specimen: the pettifogger pettifogged upon: a troglodyte who penetrates depths of still deeper darkness. He has all the common vices of the family, and some special vices of his own. This creature frequents criminal courts, and there delights in criminal practice. He is the familiar of bailiffs and jailersg and has a sort of undefined partnership with them, in thieves and ruffians and prostitutes. These he defends or be- trays, according to the exigencies of his relations with their captors or prosecutors. He has confidential relations with those who dwell in the debatable land between industry and crime. l'le is the friend of pimps and fences. He has intiniacies among the most vicious men and women. He is the standing counsel ,of gambling dens and houses of ill-fame. He knows all about the criminals in custody, and has extensive acquaintances among those at large. He is conversant with their habits of life, and calls them familiarly by their Christian names. He prowls around the purlieus of jails and penitentiaries, seeking cli- ents, inventing defenses, organizing perjury, tampering with turnkeys, and tolling prison- ers. He levies blackmail on all hands. His effrontery is beyond all shame. He thinks all lawyers are as he, but not so smart. He believes in the integrity of no many in the virtue of no woman. He loves vice better than virtue. He enjoys darkness rather than light. His habits of life lead him to the back lanes and dark ways of the World. He is the attorney-general of crime.-From the Albany Law Journal, 1873. CONCLUSIVE My client is not mentally normal. The fact that he murdered his wife is partly a proof of that but the fact that he married again is conclusive.WDorfbarbicr, Berlin. IMPRESSIVE A young lawyer, pleading his first case, had been retained by a farmer to prosecute a railway company for killing twenty-four hogs. He wanted to impress the jury with the magnitude of the injury. . Twenty-four hogs, gentlemen. Twenty-fourg twice the number there in the jury box. -Thi' Furroztn HIGH GRADE First Mortgage llnvestmenits Real Estate Loan Department City Bank of Kansas City Established 1913 112421 'l'lIli VVIIJOVVS VVIT .Xn Irish slieritt' hurl to serve Il writ on 21 Clever young wiflow. zinil, on emning to her resirlence, s:1i4I very pulitelyt Hllzulzun.
