a license for the monopoly of trade

Chicago and the great English courts
are at outs That is Chicago has
agreed to disag gree with the eminent
English jurist, Sir Gorrell Barnes, and
his Divorce Law Reform Association.
Sir Gorrell claims divorces are too
hard to obtain. Chicago declares di-
vorce is too easy. Neither Chicago nor
Sir Gorrell cares a straw for the opin-
ion of the other. Each proposes to get
busy and at once crystalline their opin-
ions into sound, hard unyielding law.
While on the subject of divorce
would it not be a good thing, L, won
der, for both Chicago and the Divorce
Law Reform Association to stop bit
and consider the subject of marriage?
Since without marriage there would be
no divorces they might incline to give
passing notice to mighty good
cause that so frequently produces such
very bad effects
Even easier than divorce in Chicago
is marriage all over the world To
get married is the easiest favor one
can ask of ones Government. The
price of the license that is all that is
required. But to get a divorce. how
different? Even in the easiest places
much more is required than the price
and the consent of both parties. And
marriage is so much more serious a
proposition than divorce. Then why
not make it a harder thing to get mar
ried than to get divorced? Divorce is a
necessary evil. Nothing is more de-
grading than for two people who no
longer love each other-provided they
ever did love each Other-to continue
to live together as man and wife.
Nothing is so humiliating as a man
and wife who are continually quar-
reling. TO suffer abuse and maltreat-
ment is the quickest way known for
either man or woman to forfeit all
self-respect.
True, marriage has always and still
does stand for that sacred place called
home. Love, dignity, honor and self
respect are the safeguard and founda-
tion of home. When they are gone
home is gone. and it is just as well
that the marriage that destroyed them
should be destroyed.
Since, then, marriage is so serious a
thing, is it we'll that it should be en-
tered into so lightly? This remodeling
of divorce laws sounds very much like
locking the stable doors after the horse
has been stolen. Why devote so much
energy and effort to keeping ill-mated
couples together? Why call the law
in to maintain such sorry apologies for
homes? Why not take sensible and
