MEALS WELCOMED INTO OUR MIDST The Cleveland Law School Club regaled itself with a feast of oratory on the night of December 22nd at its regular monthly meeting. Judge Walter D. Meals of the Court of Appeals (notice the rhyme) released a few verbal scenarios. The mem- bers of the club were deluged with cascades of ora- tory to which they listened with bucolic and open- mouthed wonder. The Judge took his audience on a personally conducted excursion thru the realmq and labyrinths of an action at law as she is tried in the courts. The journey was embellished with many sage witticisms most of which were obiter and some of which were new. They all went across in good shape-thus showing the Judge's ability to size up his audience. His Honor expressed pleasure at be- ing privileged to meet the members in their club room because as he put it, it was the only place that he expected ever to see them. Judge Meals' address was delivered with his usual felicity and was greatly appreciated by the student body. Our latch string is always out for the Judge. The fellows turned out in goodly num- ber. Everybody showed enthusiasm-real pep- thus showing that the spirit of the JAW School, sometimes accused of being moribund, is still oi: the job. HONEST, IF UNTRUTHFUL In a rural court the other day a man charged with a minor offense listened patiently to the numerous witnesses who testified against him. When he was called as a witness, the customary oath was admin- istered Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth in this case? Much to the consternation of the court, his reply was: No. I am going to do just like all these other fellows have done who have testified against me. When oyuer was restored, the court explained to him that it would be necessary for him to say that he would tell the truth, whereupon the trial pro- ceeded. BALDWIN-WALLACE COLLEGE AND THE CLEVELAND LAW SCH3OL The friends of the Cleveland Law School have felt for many years that-something should be done to bring the students of this department into closer touch and more profitable relationship with each other. It is exceedingly difficult to create a spirit of fellowship, cordiality and co-operation in an in- stitution like the Cleveland Law School. The stu- dents of this department get together in the even- ing only; they are busy with the affairs and burdens of their daily tasks, and while they are industrious and anxious to get an education, it is nevertheless true that their interests are not concentrated upon their educational work alone. It is therefore an event of unusual importance that the student body of the Cleveland Law School has decided to publish a monthly journal which will bring the news of the activities of the Law School and matters of general interest to the attention of the students of this department. A journal of this kind must necessarily bring the students into closer relationship and will naturally create a better spirit of sympathetic co-operation. I am, therefore, great- ly delighted to be informed of this new venture, and desire to express herewith to the members of the st mt ry best, wishes for their splendid success in th-s worthy enterprise. ARTHUR L. BRESLICH, President. PREPARATORY SCHOOL Preparatory School closed with a bang, Thursday, December 21, 1916. The evening was featured with speeches and presentations. The only thing that disturbed the serenity of the evening was Mr. Mac- Nulty who was running around looking as tho he, was due for an internal hemorrhage any minute. Mr. Greenberg, the official presenter of the tokens of esteem was not to be fovnd, nor were the gifts.
