FAULTY COURT SYSTEM Even tho i his confession may not be used, the evidence that Hickman committed the Los Angeles murder seems so conclusive that simple legal formalities would establish the fact.be fore any court. But the question of sanity is another matter - insanity, or mental responsibility is not a question of defense for a jury to pass upon. It is a question for scientific exalone. The Remus case offers convincing evidence of the folly of passing on to a jury a question that has nothing to do with the fact of whether the accused committed the murder 01 not, and verdicts of “not guilty” in such cases implies that no one knows who did the killing. 0 WILLOW HAS SPREAD FAR The “first weeping willow in England was planted by the pope (1688-1744). He received a present of figs from Turkey and observing a twig in a basket ready to bud, planted it in his garden Soon it became a fine tree. Al! the weeping willows there am in America originated from this stock. o January marks the birth anni versary of several historic characters. Benjamin Franklin waj born on the 17th, 1706; Daniel Webster on the 18th, 1782; ’ Robert E. Lee on the 19th, 1807; Stonewall Jackson on the 21st 1824; William McKinley on the 29,- 1843. The death of Theodore Roosevelt occurred January 6, 1919. —o It is now claimed that Detroit lost the Republican national convention because it stressed its wetness as an inducement.

THE NEW CHEVROLET Wildfire enthusiasm kindled throughout the country last week when the new Chevrolet lind for 1928 went on display took particular account of the many mechanical innovations embodied in the new car. Thousands who viewed the new models noted that the wheelbase was increased and bodies made roomier and more beautiful, also that the mechanical features had been developed to a measure heretofore unknown in the low price class. Outstanding developments in the engine and chassis that received wide-spread endorsement were the increased speed and power of the new car, easier steering, four wheel brakes of new design shock absorber springs marking an advanced trend toward riding comfort, and smoother engine performance. o — Nearly 90 inmates of the Wisconsin state prison are enrolled in correspondence courses supplied by the extension division of the University of Wisconsin. Two of these who have completed the largest number of courses are life-termers. The warden declares that study is the most valuable prison activity for keeping discipline and contenti ment, besides fitting the men . for useful and honorable' voca- : tions when released dr conditionally pardoned. , © While the use of profanity does not necessarily indicate a depraved nature, it does indicate ignorance necessary to properly and decently express rage or j wonderment. There’s some exI cuse for a mule-(dfiver’s vocabulary, but it does not seem fit ’ with a white collar and boiled ’ shirt. With dictionaries as plen- ' | tiful as bibles there’s no excuse I for a man making a sewer of his mouth.
