York Rotary club guarantees to the
courts a jury personnel of capable
men,most of whom are actively en-
gaged in business and who are thus
equipped with a Lnd great-
ly desired for jury . They are
men who will inot sily swayed
by an emotional r 'of a 'smnti-
mental attorney, ill decide the
case on the sheer e of the testi-
mony presented.
i must not 1 i however,
that only men pein to be
members o the u:a9 -.abs or any
other ciubs of ratnve are quali-
fied for jury sE c-. No doulbt many
good jurics ha :: been secured in New
Nork and im other places to sit
through petty cases. But the general
situation as affecting petty juries
shows that men are reluctant to 'serve,
often, times giving many weak ex-
cuses in order to be relieved of this
service.
Serving on a jury is an important
service of an American citizen to his
country. The service should be equal-
ly distributed in order that all may
have ,a chance to show their interest
in the meting out of justice. In the
small localities there is little difficul-
ties in getting citizens to serve, but
in larger cities, such as New York, the
reverse is true.
It is an injustice to the principals
in any trial as well as a hindrance
in the efforts tt. make our courts in-
stitutions of ju Lice if the more capa-
ble citizens o. i city are allowed to
contiinue to use themselves from
jury service d the less desirable
citizens, man f whom are unquali-
fied to rende rn unprejudiced deci-
sion, are m = to occupy the seats
in the jury . In New York par-
ticularly this s been the case. It
has been found', at some of the jury-
men and women selected were total-
ly unqualified to serve although, in
order to expediate the work of the
court, they were place, on the jury
aind their opinions were final.
Although it is not 'tended that
any one organization K: uld mono-
polize the jury box, it is ,ommenda-
ble step that the Rotary : b of the
world's metropolis has t.. in the
direction of assisting in ;inging
about better juries in the Nc York
courts. It would be unfortur, if
this organization stood alone in this
attitude for if undue advantage were
taken of this offer the burden of
serving on juries . co' - t 1 o

The colorful life of one of Michi
ga's outstanding officials wa
brought to a close yesterday in th
passing of Charles S. Pierce, forme
State Senator and for twenty-fiv
years clerk of the House of Repre
sentatives of Michigan. In the pass
ing of Mr. Pierce, who just recentl
reached his seventieth birthday an
niversary, Michigan loses a Vlistin
guished citizen and a most faithfu
official.
Year in and year out Charles Pierce
as clerk of the House, greeted th
sentors and representatives as the
came to Lansing to carry on thei
legislative duties. He was thei
friend, he was their advisor, he wa
their parlimentarian; he saved man
from embarrassment, he schoole
many during the early periods. o
their legislative career. He wa
kind to his clerks. He was huma
to the pages. The whole burden o
routine work connectedwith the de
liberations of the House of Repre
sentatives rested upon his shoulders
;During the months of the legislativ
session his work was endless. Re
porting at his office in the Hous
early in the morning and leaving a
the midnight hour approached, con
stituted the limits of Mr. Pierce'
working days on many occasions.
Through his long years of servic
Mr. Pierce became so thoroughl
identified with the House of Repre
senatives that the mere mention o
any of the many aspects of the wor
of the House to one connection with
the legislature brought about a re
collection of the faithful clerk whose
labors were so faithfully contribute
to the interest of the state that h
dearly loved.
As a graduate of the Michigan Law
school of the class of 1887, this Uni-
versity can feel justly proud of the
invaluable and unselfish services
that this Michigan son has rendered
to his state.
Although he was well equipped to
pursue his legal practice, Mr. Pierce
chose to continue in his position as
House clerk, a position for which he
was admirably fitted and one for
which it will be difficult to find a
successor. The office of clerk of the
House being an elective position on
the part of House members, Mr.
Pierce was never confronted with op-
position for his post, which is one
of the many marked' tributes that
were paid him during his colorful
life as a Michigan official.
FOR BETTER JURIES
A praiseworthy step was taken by
the New York Rotary Club this week
in offering the services of each and
every one of its members for jury
service within the city if the various
courts in need of jurymen so desire
them. This step is taken in view of
the widespread desire, not only dis-
cernable in New York but one which
is getting to be quite rampant
throughout the country, on the part
of citizens to escape jury service. Jury
service is presumably evaded because
of the time that it takes to fulfill
the duties on the panel and because
of the monotony experienced as a
result of hearing the facts of the
many petty cases that are argued be-'
fore jury.,
