WHY CHARLES
LEFT HOME

Now here is tale Of matrimon-

what the man did to arouse such
pointed personal attentions on the
part Of his wife. Judge Sullivan
today granted a divorce to Charles
McGeorge from Margaret, his wife.
They were married Is years ago
in Great Falls. Mont, and have 2
children. The plaintiff asked ever
lasting relief from Margaret for
several reasons. She made him eat
in a room by himself like naughty
child. Later she refused to cook
for him at all, and ended up by
hammering him on the Uranium
with stove wood. Two years ago,
he says, she pointed a gun at him
and told him if he ever came back
she would blow his block clear off.
Charles never went back.
A divorce was also granted TO
James A. Smith from Lula A., with
custody of their daughter, Silvan,
on grounds of desertion.
