STUDYING LOVE MAKING.

An eastern contemporary says that
Ann Arbor has established loye-mak.
INK department, as an auxiliary to its
elocutlon studies, and Professor True
blood has undertaken to show the stu
dents how to propose to a girl Some
of the women of the class are used as
"folls"
The "drllr' IL said TO include care
fully prepared declarations passionate
utteranees, wistful facial expression
kneeling and the holding Of hands
Undoubtedly the young folks have a
great deal Of fun in these classes, and
It is rot inconceyable that the exercises
can lead 20 more than one romance. But
for all that, the study must be regarded
as absolutely useless Girls do not care
for love-etters copied from books; nor
do they care for declarations OF devo-
ton that have been learned and re-
hearsed In classroom. Paint. powder.
ribbons and perfumes may enhance
beauty, but true love does not need the
ornaments that elocutlonlsts use to
gain a point II Is Its own best inter-
prefer. Very often It's most eloquent
language is never uttered in words. Mr.
r. 7. Crane who has studied the utll-
lty Of college training as a preparation
for a business career, has come to the
conclusion that such training Is useless.
He has been led TO this opinion by
his own observations and by the testi-
mony OF many who have had college
training themselves. II there Is any
truth In this reasoning. one would be
justified In the conclusion, that when
loye-makIng is made part OF college
training, 1t WIN become a failure, TOO.
Better be careful about such innoya-
tons The world, says Mr.. Crane. is
the best college.

to him; DO you love children" Look

rnE MEMORIAL BUILDING.

What are you going to DO with the
old Deseret News corner?' That is a
question frequently asked by people
who do not read the newspapers or who
easily forget what they read About a
year ago the "News" gave information
on this point, and since then has re-
reatedly referred TO the plans In con-
temptation by the Church authorities

THE DIVORCE Evil.

The Springfield Republican tells the
story OF divorce case AS an illuetra-
ton OF The complete anarchy that pre-
walls in this country In such an al-m-
portant matter II is well 10 be re-
minded, once In while, Of the fact that
this country. though professedly ex-
tremely jealouz Of the sanctlty Of the
home, suffers a condition to exist, which
can hardly be paralleled In any civil
ICED country.
The case Is one which is attracting
some attention In New York. A little
more than a year ago one Mr., Pell OF
New York, a member OF q well known
family, went 10 Florida, secured a legal
residence there and soon was suing In
the Florida courts for a divorce from
his wife on the ground OF desertlon. The
couple had separated some months pre-
vlously, by mutual agreement. the hus-
band leaving the two children with the
wife and agreeing TO pay her sum
monthly FOR her maintenance. Mrs. Pell
ignored the Florida proceedings al
though she was notified, and last Octo-
Der Mr.. Pell secured his divorce, no op-
position being set up, Immediately he
stopped the payments to Mrs. Pell.
Within a short time he was married
again In Connecticut and went abroad
with the bride.
Now The first Mrs. Pell has brought
suit Tor divorce In the New York
courts naming the second Mrs, Pel as
q correspondent Her action Is based
on the theory that the Florida divorce
had no lawful effect upon her own
matrimonial status; that Mr.. Pelrs
ConneCtlcut marriage consequently,was
null and void ana that his present re-
lations with Mrs. Pel No. 2 afford
ground For an action for divorce for
herself in the courts OF New York. Here
three states are involved. Was the d.
vorce granted in Florida invalid in
New York; II so the status OF Mr..
pell and his second wife IS radically
different IN the two states
The fact IS that some uniformity In
the divorce laws should be brought
about No citizen who has the well
fare Of The country at heart can. with.
out anxiety. scan the proceedings Of
divorce courts for they reveal the fact
that the breaking up OF homes Is be-
coming altogether too frequent an oc.

Malay Running "AmOk."

"AmOk' is a religious fanaticism, a
madness under which man makes up
his mind to kill any one he can until he
himself is killed. Brought on by drink
or religion, or from whatever cause,
the process is the same. The mailman
seiZes his creese and rushes headlong
down the street. cutting at every one
he meets. To any one who has seen a
creese or parang further detail is I'M
necessary.
A man running amok is as dog
with hydrophobia. but the panic caused
by the former is by far the worse.
Like the mad dog, the mailman is fol-
lowed by a noisy rabble, who sooner
or later run into their man and eXter-
inmate him. When this vengeful rab-
BILE is made up of bloodthirsty Malays
and Cinnamon, it's wild rage and fury
are beyond control, beyond description.
The clamor and blood curdling yells of
the pursuing crowd and the ever near
ing shout of "Oran amok. Oran amok!"
are incidents which can never be for
gotten by any one who has seen or heard
them. The bravest quails when sud-
denly turning the corner of a street his
ears are greeted with the cry of "Oran
amok!' and few yards off he sees a
Malay running straight at him. brand
ishing in his hand the bloody creese
with which he has already slaughtered
all in his way.
