AZY JUDGES are to blame for the law’s notorious delay here- L about if we believe Franklin Pierce of the New York County Lawyers’ Association. If each of our present judges in this vicinity would agree to make a business man’s day of it and sit from 10 A. M. to 5 P. M. their combined efforts, according to Mr. Pierce, could dispose of half the law cases of the United States. It has been the custom to cast impersonal blame for slow-moving, justice in our courts upon involved procedure and red tape. Putting it up to the judges themselves has the advantage of supplying some- body at whom to point a finger and contains enough truth to set one thinking. To what extent does the law become ponderous and unwieldy be- cause of the unwieldy and ponderous inertia of many of those whose function it is to interpret it? Does the majesty of the law too often find itself forced to slow down to a enail’s pace to keep step with the pompous, self-indulgent gait of its magistrates? —_———_-4-2—___— “The cleverest men are cleverer than the cleverest women, and the most foolish men are more foolish than the most foolish wom- en,” declares the crack psychologist of the London County Council, according to a Sun despatch.

Con- vince yourself that even the busiest city on earth doesn’t have to grow hit or mise. It is neither the best way, nor the most beautifuP way nor is it even the cheapest way.

For the last month thousands of girls have been revolving in their minds that question. Was the fortnight’s holiday this year a hundred dollar sojourn at some hotel spent in uncomfortable con templation of the clothes and fixings a working girl can't afford to have, or was it something better worth while? How many girls in this city who remember their holiday mainly for its sorry effect on their savings account would be glad to hear how more than a thousand other girls enjoyed two weeks of boating, ewim- ming, walking, corn roasts, marshmallow toasts and camping parties with no end of fun and good food at a cost to each vacationer of $7.95 for the whole two weeks? ; How and where it was done—for $3.50 per week and a ninety-five cent round-trip ticket from New York—is fully described in The Sunday World Magazine for to-morrow, And there’s another year coming. nd Five hundred and twenty-one years ago to-morrow this cont!- nent got in front of a Genoese skipper on his way to India and suffered serious and permanent discovery.
