After seeing her husband off at a depot, a woman noticed a pair of gloves lying on a bench. Mistaken ly thinking they were her husband's she took them home. The - next morning she saw a lost-and-found ad in the- newspaper, describing the gloves she had picked up. She thereupon returned them to the owner. Now, it so happened that the owner was ■ very crotchety In dividuel. Instead of being grateful, he had the woman arrested on a charge of stealing. The man in sisted that, technically speaking, anybody who takes someone else's property is a thief. But the court felt otherwise and found the wom an, not guilty of the charge. The judge said that her ''crime** lacked one necessary element: criminal intent • • • Should o Person Be Judged By Who» He Soys-r Or By How He bays It? > ** A cabbie was hurt in a collision, and sued the ether driver ter dam* ages. When the motorist was held liable, his lawyer appealed the case to a higher court. The lawyer pointed out that his client had told a smooth, logical ktory—while the cabbie had used awkward, halting phrases. But the court was not im pressed and turned down the ap peal. The judges said that even more important than the words themselves are “the furtive glance, the blush of shame, the hesitation, the sneering tone, the yawn, the sigh, the brazen face of the liar, the honest face of the truthful one. A witness may give testimony that reads, in print, as if falling from the lips of an angel, and yet not • soul who heard it believed a word. 'Another lb ay testify so that it reads brokenly in print, and yet some thing about him carried the convic tion of truth to everyone who heard him speak." • • • If o Mon Dies, Do His Obligations Die Too? A wealthy broker decided to five his wife • custom-built car, tail ored to suit her taste. He placed the order, at a price of $7500, but shortly before the gift was deliv ered the broker was killed in a plane crash. The executors of his estate flatly refused to pay for the car, arguing that the man's death made it “impossible” to carry out the contract. However, the court disagreed and ordered the auto maker paid 4n full. The judge pointed out that all the broker had contracted to do was to pay $7500— and his executors could do that just as well as he! - • • e Must You Be Considerate Of Your Neighbor's Likes and Dislikes? A young couple who lived on the outskirts 61 town kept a small hen house in their back yard. As it hap pened, the lady who lived next door was a very nervous person. The noise and smell from the hens bothered her so much that she fin ally went to court for a stop-order. ■ ... . ■ However, the court turned down her request The Judge said the ben house was perfectly lawful In that district so long as it wasn’t of fensive to ordinary folk. His Honor added that a home owner need not curb his own activities. Just bo cause he happens to have a neigh bor who la ultra-sensitive. • • • A manufacturing firm announced plans to erect a huge electric sign alongside a busy highway—right in front of a sharp curve In the road. The highway commissioners retort ed that If the sign went up, they would build a screen right In front of it! They explained that they didn’t want motorists’ minds taken off their driving. The manufactur ing firm promptly took the matter to court hut the Judge ruled that the cojnraission was Justified in taking sueh a step, as a matter of highway sifety.
