"HONOR IS MORE THAN HIGH FEES"
JUDGE PHILIPS IS FOR HIGH ETHICS IN LAW.
Ex-Federal Judge Urges Young Lawyers Not to Be Led Away From Lofty Standards.
Ex-federal Judge John F. Philips closed his speech in chapel yesterday, in which he discussed the relation of the courts to the democratic form of government, with a strong appeal to the students of the School of Law to carry into their profession a high standard of ethics and urged them to consider the honors and distinctions attending a long and just career on the bench as more to be desired than the luxurious life of the well-paid lawyer. He said that it should be the ambition of every lawyer, rather to save the life of an accused man from the clamor of the populace or an orphan from the spoiler than to receive large rewards from wealthy corporations. He recalled to mind the fact that poverty often leads to distinction and that a young man must not be too anxious to get along too rapidly in the world.
"Don't forget to come back to your Alma Mater when you have won fame and glory for yourself and visit your revered and learned Dean. It will gladden his heart and enrich his life."
In speaking of the tendency of the times to make the judges more directly responsible to the vote of the mass of the people, Judge Philips denounced the movement as one tending to destroy the impartiality and judicial atmosphere of the jurist. If they are appointed for life their wisdom increases with age and they have no other motive for action than that of establishing a name for themselves as honest and impartial judges.
In speaking of the supreme court of the United States, Judge Philips said, "A country can no more exist without a supreme court to uphold its constitution than it can exist without the providence of God. The framers of the constitution never intended that the supreme court should pass upon its own acts."

CITY SETTLEMENT WORK
Chafin Told of Aid for Poor and Criminal
In speaking at the Y. M. C. A. meeting Thursday evening on "How the Other Half Lives," J. f. Chaiin of he Swope Settlement work in Kansas City took of his experiences with the poo and degenerate of that city. Not only does he seek to provide in his institution a better environment and some encouragement for the unfortunate, but also he assists the police. With the later he also frequently has controversies for their failure in duty.
"In all our work the volunteers from among the lower strata itself are very helpful to me," said Mr. Chafin. "I have had four boys who were especially useful in reporting crimes to me and advising with me how we can help those who are down even though from their own misconduct."
"Boys from the street though they are, they have much of true manhood in them and are 'on the square,'" declared Mr. Chafin. Such men aid him in encouraging their weaker associates.
Mr. Chafin and the other regular settlement workers perform a service for the poor by compelling landlords to be just to their tenants. This work occasionally brings the enmity of men who otherwise would be willing to give them financial support. A certain amount of free medical service is given at the settlement house to those who require such help.
NAUGHTY WORDS BARRED.
Student Boarding Clubs Form Anti-Profanity League.
Steps have been taken by some of the student boarding clubs to organize an anti-profanity league. One club has already taken the initiative, elected officers, and established a fine system. The system is unique. Each member caught uttering a slang phrase or irreverent word within hearing distance of two persons is arrested. He is brought before a student tribunal and tried, the mode of procedure being the same as that of a regular justice court. The unfortunate one is assessed one cent per word. When there is a sufficient amount of money in the bank to warrant the expense a banquet is held and the whole house join in a "spread."
Such a banquet was given last night in the attic of a boarding club on Mississippi street, after the basket-ball game.

An increase in the income and and in the building fund of the University of Wisconsin on the basis of a growth of 23 per cent. in the number of students in the last two years, and of the growing demand on the part of people of the State for expert assistance, is provided for in a bill introduced in the legislature. The bill provides for changing the existing two-seventh of a mill tax on the assessed valuation of all property of the state for maintaining the university to 3-8 of a mill. This would increase the general university income, approximately, from $750,000 a year to $1,000,000.
