4. 28tlc0 Friday evening the members of the Kingman bar were entertained at the home of Judge and Mrs. J. J. Harlow, where an excellent dinner was served, and several hours were pleasantly passed in a social way.

All members of the local bar were present and at table together for the first time in Kingman history. After doing justice to a very fine chicken pie and the toothsome salads, sauces, entrees and dessert that go with it the court announced Itself ready for the pleadings of counsel. Lawrence Walter acted as toastmaster.

C. C. Calkin followed with a humorous re cital of an experience every lawyer has, "My First Law Suit." Geo.

L. Hay, another of the old-timers, followed with "The Judges of This District," giving an interests first hand impression of those who have occupied the bench since the days wnen Judge Peters of Newton first opened court In this county.
