E KNOW of a famous lawyer who, in important . cases, has a woman sitting beside h to aid him in the examination of jurors and witnesses. She is there to give him the woman's point of view His experience has been that women see many things © overlooked entirely by men, or viewed from a different stand-| it. . i If there is one sphere in public affairs where the wom fan's point of view is to be particularly valued, it is in the > Bwidance of our public school system. . Over one-half of the school children are girls; about one Dalf of the teaching force is feminine. : What better place for public service for woman than on| | Phe school board? | x Tt is sd natural a sphere for woman that long before Bhe was given the general franchise in this state, she has Wpajoyed the privilege of voting for school directors. . The Star believes it will prove of great benefit to ' have a woman on the school board. Women have been notably successful as teachers and as superin- | tendents of schools.

The Star is glad to endorse her candidacy. \dges Who See Only Backward WO YEARS ago the legislature of New Jersey passed a law clothing the state with power to make it im le for hopeless idiots to breed other hopeless idiots the community's expense. | The law was not inhumane. It was not as inhumane had been the prior policy of locking these idiots up in ly institutions. | Science has found a way by which it is possible, without to make a defective sterile. The plan cleans the slate in a generation. | The wisdom or unwisdom of applying such treatment “epileptics, feeble-minded and degenerates is fairly open Bo debate; but the Jersey law registered a decision clearly the legislative function. It was as plainly a decision within the law-making as, for example, the question of capital punishment. But now comes the supreme court of New Jer- sey and knocks this law out. Says the lawmakers had no right to pass it, because it wasn't “con- stitutiorfal.” The sacred constitution, written long before folks had} med to study closely the preventive side of the problem wf human waste, is used as a barrier to stop them from Eperimenting with a new teaching of social science.
