Scintillating with brilliant oratory and brimming with wit and good •sheer, the banquet proved the great est in the history of the association. The assembly hall of the hotel was raxed to its capacity, there being 225 guests, nearly a hundred more than ha%o ever attended a previous ban quet Arnold Toastmaster. Reuben Arnold, president, acted na toastmaster, but his efforts to hold the .speakers dow n to the four-minute ru!e ; proved futile, as In each case the crowd demanded more from each one. Present were the members of tin. Fulton County Bar and many mem bers of the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals. The impressive love, dignity and respect in which itiese Judges were held by the great :hrong of attorneys was forcibly in>- i#> eased by others than lawyers in ttendance, and drew remarks of ufnmendatidh and congratulations on i. high ‘tending of the Georgia bar.

Judqe Pendleton Speaks. Judge Pendleton spoke on “the * oublta of a Judge.” and the esteem u which the veteran chief Justice of ihe Fulton County Superior Court ts oeld could not have been better lllus trated than in the ten minutes of ap plause which greeted him. Judge Pendleton made a heart-to-heart talk vet hi* Jocular jab* at the Court of Appeals drew laugh after laugh "I like the Court of Appeals, but they do act funny sometime," he said. For Instance. Judge Broyles held that when an officer put his hand behind a man, felt under his coat and discover ed a pistol, that the man was guilty of violating the law. I thought so, too but the Court of Appeals thought otherwise and reversed it. They held that it was an illegal search. But 1 can’t agree with them." Judge Pendleton used as an Illus tration the comparison of a Decatur street negro with a Peachtree street white man, which brought laughter from the crowd, and an impassioned retort from Judge Russell. Turning the words from a jocular reference t a serious consideration, he pleaded for ■ he day when the humblest wretch of Decatur street would receive the same justice as the most esteemed white man. This in turn drew cheers from the banqueters. Reuben Arnold Lauds Bar. Judge Baker added to the com parison with the declaration that he had agreed with Judges Broyles and Pendleton, and there were half a dozen men In the hall who wanted to ex press an opinion. Reuben Arnold congratulated the members of the association on the high standing of the Atlanta bar. But one complaint had been received dur- History oi Association, ate Courts Attend and ml Praise of Attorneys. ing the year, and this had been speed- ih disposed of 1»r de< lared. The tact that Georgia judges bore a reputation for fairness was com mented upon by Robert C. Alston. “Strike from the pages of Georgia history the names of the lawyers, and there would be but few pages that would not be blank," he declared. "There has never been one of our State Judges accused of unfairness, and this speaks well for our bar. “Nowhere can a higher standard he found than exists among the Atlanta lawyer*. And the men recruited from their rank and awarded judgeships have exemplified the fact that a com plete spirit of fairness exists. Not only in the hearing of evidence, but in the consideration of our bills <>f exceptions, have our judges displayed absolute fairness There is not a man among us here but who knows that in each particular case handled by him ne has received the most sin cere judgment on the part of our Jur ists.” Tobacco Crop Slow; Banks Get Extension Undraped Posing Causes Stir in Paris Cabinet Minister's ex Wife Seen in Artistic “Studies” by Lead era of Art World PARIS, Dec. 6.—A social sensation ha* been caused here by the undraped pla* tic poses by Madam Valrntln* DeBalnt Point, the divorced wife of a french cabinet minister, granddaughter of the Marquis DesGians DeCesniat. and a de scendant of the poat and historian, 1*- martlne.
