What About "Obey" Thsae Days

A court down in Kentucky has just made a decision that some will pronounce wise and others de­nounce as absurd or outrageous. A woman was convicted of possess­ing liquor. An appeal was taken and now the higher court says that she did not have a fair trial and must have another because the judge, in the original jurisdiction, failed to charge that if the woman went and bought and brought home the whisky at the command of her husband, it must be assumed that she acted under compulsion and therefore was innocent of any offence.

That was good • law through many a century and it would have been disputed hardly anywhere not so many years ago. But how about now? It may pass in Ken­tucky, but elsewhere in this coun­try it will be made at least the subject of more or less impassion­ed discussion. Husbands do not do much compelling of wives, now­adays and when a survival from other times tries to do it there are likely to b e more exciting hap­penings than there seem to have been in this case.

Snow fences should have been up by the first of December, but any time before the, first drifting snow 1« not too late to keep the banks out of the roads.

Expressing Her Feelings.'

It was a lesson on punctuation, and Jimmy was almost asleep at his desk.

"Now," said the teacher, "if I say, "I must leave, t 8 I have an en­gagement—by the way, what is the time?" "I place a 'dash' after en­gagement,' because tac sentence Is broken off abruptly."

At that moment she caught sight of Jimmy

"Now, then, Jimmy, you are not listening. What was I say ingV she asked him.
