JUDGE SPANN’S RECORD IS
PRAISED
Judge F. M. Sioann of Temple has
completed two month® of service as
district judge' of the Twenty-seventh
judicial district, and reports which
have been received by the Telegram
show the following record: Forty
civil cases have been disposed of
sine® February 1, and twenty crim-
inal cases have been finally disposed
iof with -eight convictions and sen-
tences to the penitentiary.
Among the policies1 instituted by
Judge Spann in conducting the af-
fairs of .the court are the making the
jury fistsi secret by order of the court,
and refusing to accept business rea-
sons as' :an .excuse from, jury shy vice.
Commenting bp on the dispatch of
business under the administration of
Judge -Spa-no, onfe* who ihas been in
position to observe closely the work-
ing® of the court said: “By insist-
ing .upon all jurors doing duty, fin-
ing absent jurors and refusing busi-
ness reasons -a® an ’ excuse for jury
service,,. jurors- have! learned that a
sum.m-onis means to attend court; the
‘jury pan-els have been full and the
attendance goo-d. Out of a special
venire of 120 on March 15, there
.were 118 present. One of the ab-
sentees -sent a doctor’® certificate and
the other broke his buggy down try-
ing to get to court in time. The re-
seed is that the daulz-e-r of the ‘pick
up’ or ‘pro&issri-onab juror is elimin-
ated, and the method is placing the
Bell county jurc-rs, like Caesar’s
wife, 4 above suspicion.’
“The business of the court has
been dispatched in la most efficient
and business-like manner. Th-e strict
est order is kept in tl?e -court room
and -so smoothly is the machinery
run that the court has been compar-
ed to a fed&nal court..

op-enatiion of all the- offici-rs' and at-

The most vital question in America today is individual preparedness.
Not merely national preparedness for war, but individual preparedness
for anything that jnay come up—individual preparedness to live useful,
honest, successful lives for the benefit of ourselves, of humanity and of
posterity.
Although the United States is a prosperous nation, we are not a pros-1
perous people individually; for one person out of every ten who dies ir
in any of the large cities is buried In a potter’s field.
Statistics show th*at in the United States there are only 108 who savj
