Newspaper Page TextPAGE SIX-A Large Summer Class Graduated At University of Georgig CHANGING STATUS - OFWOMAN TOPIC ~ [FFINA SPEECH Judge Green Traces De * wvelopment of Law's At titude Toward Women l}l’ﬂomas were awarded 126 gra duates a‘ the final exercises of the University of Georgia summer ther Friday night when Judge Thomas I*. Green de'lvered ap ad dress on “The Attitude of the Law Toward Women.” Degrees were awarded by Dean L. L. Hendren of the University. The program included an organ ldlb by Miss Nolee Mae Dunaway o._:fm a violin solo by Mrs. Charles _Pafrott, Dr. J. C. Wilkinson, pastor of First Baptist church, de livered the invocation and the benediction. In his address to the graduates, Judge Green, a former membep of the board of trustees of the Uni versity, ang more recently a mem ber of the board of regents of the Uhiversity of Georgia system, traced the developmen; of the law's attitude toward woman, going back to the days when woman was without status before the law; w_&n her rights were vested in her husband who, alone, had legal landing. But such has been the s of the liberalization of law toward woman, that today the effect of the law is to discriminate against men. "It \is impossible,” saig@ Judge en, “to understand or appre te the significance of modern statutes affecting woman without a knowledge of the ancient law and the underlying reasons. This is cially true in Georgia since B¢ rgin is what is known as a pmmon Law State; that is, a, ate whose jurisprudence was the beginning largely shaped by the Common Law o 7 England.” Makes Progress *Woman in Georgia today, so far as I have been able to analyze the gituation, has every legal right and privilege of man, except the privilege of serving on a jury (if this be termed a privilege) and the righ¢ to control her own earnings; and yet on the other hand they are relieved of some fundamental liabilities which should go hand in hand with the privileges that they emjoy. 1 believe all fair-minded woraen will agree with the fore going conélusion.” ' In 'the olden days, Juage Green sald, “due to the fact that hus band and wife werz considered one, she could not bring any suft if hep own name, not even for a per :El\l injury but since her legal stence was lost in her husband, she must be joined in all sults even in a suit for pain and suffering endured by the wife. “Since the wife's services be longed to her husband angd her earnings, if any, were his, suit must be brought by him for the loss of her earning capacity. In addition to this, so close was econsidered the relationship of husband and wife, ‘ﬁ':t least so far had the woman her identity, that, with very few exceptions, she could not testi fy elther for or against her hus band, “Whereas the modern woman would rebel against such a state, ve; it should be noted and consid % that this merger of the wife's existence with the husband placed up the husband heavy burdens and responsibilities. The wife_was resumed to be in the custody and ‘under the control of her husbana ind hence in a large measure he E.mn absolutely responsible for wrongs, both civil and erimin al. If the wife damaged either dgt person or property of another, he, husband should haye controll ed her and prevented such an In féry and he was therefore respon sible for the same. Again, he be came responsible for almost all of her crimes and she was relleved largely from criminals responsibi- Jity if these crimes were commit ted in the hushand’s presence eith er actual or constructive, for the presumption arose that the wife dcted under the coercfon of the husband and he not only consent ed but commanded the commission of the crime or else he would have Prevented it. A conclusion rather difficult of modern understanding. 4 Severe Proceedings _‘fAgain, the legel relationship at least between a man and his wife was so close and confidential that third parties were subjected to severs proceedings and penalties if they interfered. An outsider was geemingly permitted to extend aid and comfort to a married woman only two instances and an old eatise says that if a married rried woman was by the wayside “apparently in distress a horseman might place her on his horse. al ways in the rear, only for two pur poses: eithe, to carry her to a ‘@piritual court for the purpose of &ﬁ[ a divorce; or to a magistrate in order to swear out a warrant for cruel treatment. This was a most interesting situation and one ery different from the modern ' babit where young ladies of the ~highest social position an@ charac fer crowd the streets of our cities @nd wait for just any stranger to 3 them to their destination— @ modern practice greatly to be _ “Dnder such_laws it was of cour { logical that the husbang shouid have real control over the person gs nis wife and it was entirely v~ 5,* v*:‘; 'A*-a" e I L+ " District News Briefs ADAMS WITHDRAWS ‘"LAVONJIA. — George A.

Miss Margaret Poole, of Winder, has been added to the it’aculty thig year.. She is a gradu [ate of the Unijyversity of Georgia. Miss Elizabeth Rigdon, daughter of the pastor of the Jefferson First Baptist church has also been ad ded to the faculty. She was grad aated from the University of Georgla last June; FIRST COTTON BALE MADlSON—Madigon’'g first bale of cotton was bought this week from Hugh Bostwick who raised it on his farm near Bostwickk. 1t weighed 500 pounds, graded mid dling, inch staple and was sold to R. C. Willingham. Mr. Willing ham bid 15 1-4 cents and under the leadership of W. P. Bearden, pres ident of the Bank of Madison, aj premium of 11 cents more was ad ded, making the bale bring 26 1-4 cents, or a total of $131.25. KILLED IN WELL : MADISON — Aaron Bumgarner, 39, was killed instantly in a well at his home in Martin’s district this week. Mr. Bumgarner was working in the well and helpers no larger than his thumb. It therefore was a favorite defense when some injured wife swore ouu a warrant against her husband for wife beating for him to admit the chastisement but claim that it was with a rod no larger than his thumb.” Contrasts Status Contrasting the status of wom-s an under the old Common Law with her emancipated position to day, Judge Green said: “It must be recognized ag the very threshold of this discussion that changing social customs have played a very important part in the present legal status of woman, both married and unmarried. At common law woman was consider ed weak, more or less dependent and the man was her protector, and in marriage her lord and mas ter. As all of you know, today woman has at last been emanci pated and in many of the activities of life ig a keen competitor of man. Again, under the Common Law, marringe was an absolute merger of the woman's identity into the existence of the husband; where as under modern social life mar riage is only a blending of the twoe personalities and quite frequently the blending ‘““does not take.” This is fundamental in the study of mo dern statutes though it is quite fre quently applied most inconsistent ly. Usual Rights “Now, ag to contracts. Married and unmarried women have the usual rights and liabilities in re ference to contracts and with some foolish exceptions have the unre stricted freedom of men. How ever, the idea still persists in law that the wife is controlled by her husbhang and hence she can pot lawfully contract with her hus band, nor ean she sell her proper ty to pay his debts, nor enter into any contract of suretyship either for him or anyone else, This rule 'becomes ludicrous when statutes and proceedings of Georgia permit ’a wife to give a valuable piece ot property to her husband, but she \%an not sell i; to him without the ‘approval of the judge of the su sperior court acting as a .chancellor 4o protect the defenseless wife. In lother words the modern husband \may say: “My dear, you have a valuable piece of property worth i‘twenty-ﬂve thousand gollars but I can’t buy it from you so ust give ’it to me.” And the confiding wife ‘may still execute a deed of gift but ‘not of bargain and sale to her hus ‘band. Again, a woman can enter into no 'contract of service with out subjecting her earnings to the ftemand of the husband. It is true few modern husbands have the courage to make such a domand but still this is the law, consistent under the theory of the Common Law, utterly inconsistent both un der the theory and practice of this modern era.” The list of graduates follows: Master of Arts: Fred Avyers, ‘Omar Wilson Bellamy, Mary Or mond Butler, Mildred Ingram iCartledge.

Planting of Trees On Eroded Areas Check =oil erosion and grow a crop cf timber on unproductive areas, is the suggestion of L. S. Watson, county farm agent. There is a great deal of land in this county which should be taken out of civilization and set in trees, and in so doing the soil would be saved from washing away and a profit made from the forest prod ucts obtained, he says, [ In all sections of the South there are local markets for such Mfarm products as pulpwood, saw logs, poles, ties and fuel wood. In most cases pines offer the quick est returns, but in some sections a few of the faster growing hard woods should be considered. The slash pine is regarded as the most profitable tree in both the Piedmont and Coastal Plain areas of the state. Because of its rapid growth and high value in the pro-“ duction of naval stores, pulpwood and lumber, it is the most widelyl grown and most popular forest tree. It does particularly well in southern Georgia. i ! The long leaf pine zrows slower than slash, but is important on account of the fact that it will grow not only on the deep sands, ‘hbut on wet landg as well, and pro duces naval stores and timber products, and will withstand rav lages of fire better than other trees. ‘lt ecan be grown throughout the coastal plain section of Georgia, which is its natural range. The loblolly, better knwon as ‘old field pine grows rapidly and makeg readily salable products. Tt grows naturally all over the state. The black locust 1 an especially valuable tree for farm planting on account of the fact that it is easily grown, and makes durable wood for fence posts, poles, and stakes. It can be grown throughout the state with the exception of the poorly drained coastal plain areas. Trees should be set during the late winter or early spring. Pines should be set about eight feet each away, while black locusts should be set about six feet apart. under the modernization program:l Georgia: Americus — Bank- otl Commerce; Athens—the National | Bank of Athens. ] Essential Foods : Will Be Provided By Winter Garden Taking sulphur and molasses th the spring will not be necessary if a good supply of vegetables is pro vided throughout the winter months, says Miss Susan Mathews, nutritionist at the University Col lege of Agriculture, Besides it wilt cut the grocery bill, aid growth in the children and promote the health of the entire family. “Now is the time to be getting the winter garden planted,” con tinued Miss Mathews, “and@ plenty of green and - yellow vegetables should be included. String beans, cabbage, collards, lettuce, mustard, rape, spinach, turnips and carrots are some of the crops that can be grown and they are rich in vitamin A, which prevents infections of various kinds as winter comes on.” The planting of foods which can be eaten raw is urged. These foods provide vitamin C which s essential 1o the health of everyone and which is difficult to obtain in winter, Lettuce, cabbage, carrots and onions may be planted to furn ish this vitamin. A large variety of vegetables should be planted in the fall and they can be used plentifully in the diet. In addition to furnishing vitamins, the fall végetables will also supply liberal amounts of minerals which are'essential blood building. Tt is important that vegetables be included in the school lunch as well as in the re gular menu for dinner ane supper.
