THAT EDITORIAL ON JUDGES
Editor Day Book:
I am a subscriber of your paper, a
Democrat politically and a lawyer by
profession. I appreciate something
good when I read it. I always was
and at all times will be in favor of
the people controlling the judiciary,
as well as all public officials. Cen
tralization of power and allowing a
few to do the selecting and the think
ing for the many leads to tyranny
and oppression.
You would confer a positive bene
fit to the community if you sent to
each judge on the bench and every
practicing lawyer in the city a copy
of your Sept. 25th edition. I hope
you will do this and wish you further
success. J. J. Viterna,
Assistant Corporation Counsel.
Room 511, City Hall, Chicago.

me what a buttress is?" "Yes, sir.
A nanny-goat, sir!"

purchases and you've been taking
the advice.
She's the "social shopper." She
holds the latest sort of woman's job.
The store pays her to circulate
among the shoppers and do, all day
long, just what she's been doing for .
you.
Miss Gertrude M. Kennedy is the
first "social shopper" in Cleyeland,

world.
