Atlanta, *a, J MATRONS WHO WORKED FOR KANSAS SUFFRAGE DODGE DUTY AS JURORS INDEPENDENCE, KANS Dee. 17 Women of Independence, who worked valiantly to secure an equal suffrage amendment for Kansas and won, are backing down when called upon to ex ercise the duties of their newly acquired citizenship. Society matrons, among them wives of millionaires, who were subpenaed as jurors to try "Jim’’ Blue, charged with shooting through the win dow of an interurban car. are "out" when attempts are made to summon them for service. Their evident reluctance to respond to calls for jury service brought an an nouncement by Justice Clark that he "intended to have a woman Jury In every case in his court where the tes timony is not likely to be of an em barrassing nature.” He said women had more time for jury duty than men. Deputy Sheriff Edward Wadman re ported he had found it virtually impos sible to serve subpenas upon half of twelve prominent women summoned. In many cases he said he was met at the door by a butler or maid witli the information that the mistress was “out of town,” while at the same time he could see “the absentee at an upstairs window laughing at him.” Un his way to his office this morn ing Justice Clark saw one of the wom en on the street. An hour later ho re ceived a telephone message that she v> as “out of town” and could not seme. He replied that "she had better be In town tomorrow.” Diamonds Enhance in Value Steadily They Make Ideal Gifts A diamond is certain to be ap preciated.
