Deleitations of Judges, lawyers, business men and other eltlzexin of our counties have appeared before the Judiciary general committee of the Senate and truthfully portrayed the Jury evils which we have so long endured.

1134 (the Maxey bill, sponsored by Senator Woodward), which we believe comes up in the Senate on third reading Monday evening, April 6.

Due to the services In the Hickory Street Presbyterian Chureh. this week, the monthly business hicet Ing of the Young Ladles' Pocjety tc I night will be postponed until Tuesday "KOOH" Too often Is a book tossed aside or avoided completely because it Is an autobiography. Somehow it sends the same sensation through us that we felt when some austere elder belittled our infant efforts with lofty tales of "when I was a child." But once in a while when the person is interesting enough, and the volume small enough, we take a chance.

Strike out the word "autobiography" under Kathleen Norris' sketch "Noon" and you have a fascinating little tale, that you are somehow grateful is an autobiography after all, and that people actually did live on love and twenty five dollars In terrorizing New York, and not Just in fiction. It is a delightful inspiration for the timid, aspiring their particular star, and strongly urges the use of a ladder Instead of a telescope: and It is also a charming cross section view of the kind of family life we wish people would practice more and preach less. Doubleday, Page Co, have published this intimate glimpse of the author of "Mother" and "Butterfly." "thb vauttbs TSIL" W. Somerset Maugham gave the flappers and bored patrons a new thrill, and incidentally something to think about laRt month when he brought out his new book, "The Painted Veil." The kind of tense action which is generally isolated midway between the center and the end of a vivid novel as a tidbit for the patient reader is served up on a silver platter in the first few chapters of this book, and although Mr. Maugham undertakes the difficult task of setting a pace that it is necessary to maintain through the entire book without letting the reader down, he accomplishes one decided victory; it is impossibre to put the book down, once started.

The story is of the awakening of the soul of Kitty Garstin, beautiful, thoughless and reckless. Just where and how In the painted veil of life she found She had a soul, and the changes that it went through, and the marks it received when Kitty nc cousted the more drab and unbeauti ful parts of the veil, is told with poignant fascination, and constant twists of the unusual that place the book decidedly out of the ordinary class of novels. The book is not a "Bedtime Story," but Is handled in an attractive, pulsing manner. George H. Doran Company are the publishers.

"THE LOMWa MYSTBRT" Jeffrey Farnol has introduced to lovers of fiction a figure unique in literature in his character portrayal of Jasper Shrlg, detective. "Jarsper," as he is por.trayed in "The Loring Mystery," recently published by Little, Brown Company, is quite as unusual a character as the famous Ancient of Mr. Farnols "The Broad Highway." Confronted with the task of tracing to one out of half a dozen suspects the guilt for the murder of the wicked Sir Nigel Loring, he pursues his search methodically and placidly. "Jarsper" is the wearer of a remarkable hat, which he describes as "Steel, sir! Lined wl" steel my own inwenti'on, and though a bit heavylsh p'r'haps, I've found It werry good acin' windictlveness in the form bludgeons, brick bats, ana a outa sional chimbley pot."
