Holly-Granada Debate.

On Friday evening last the hour
arrived when in the NJ. f. church
and under the Craftsmanship of Prin-
cipal Momyer of Granada. the chosen
debaters oi our high school and those
OF Granada should endeavor to pre-
sent the respective merits of Jeffer-
son and Washington to the disinter-
ested Judges appointed so as to Sc
cure their favorable decision. Miss
Bessie Mayfeld and Masters Victor
Haven and Roy Moore ably present
ed the claims of Jefferson but the
judges could not withstand the strong
arguments so eloquently offered by
Douglas Miller, Maurice Reynolds
: and Anna Bryce, so they decided in
favor of the negative. Then for the
present ii may be held that America
does not owe mere to Jefferson than
to Washington. The church was dec
GRATED with flags and flowers and the
program varied by musical selections
pointed with Holly high school yells
vigorously given. The reception Civ
en- to the visitors and friends in one
OF the lower rooms in the high school
building was a fitting close to very
enjoyable evening which was much
appreciated by the larger attendance.

Marriage Of Divorced Persons.

THAT marriage is a necessity and
that therefore legislatures cannot,
without violating public policy, pro-
hibit the remarriag OF divorced per-
sons, is the ground taken by Judge
McEwen OF the superior court Of
Chicago, In holding that those who
have been separated by decree may
marry again within a year, notwith-
standing an Illinois law to the con-
trary.
II take IT, declared the court,
that, in law. marriage Is a meri-
torious and a necessary institution.
The propagation OF the race, the
sustaining OF the family and the up
building OF society rests upon Il. II is
therefore to be promoted
Following out this reasoning the
Judge could not see what the legisla-
ture was endeavoring TO accomplish
when II made the one-year limita-
tion. The law, in his opinion. was
a mere arbitrary fixing OF period
without any reason. and against pub
lie policy. To deprive any man or
woman OF the right to marry, ex-
cept upon consideration OF age,
health or wrongdoing was held to be
a violation of natural rights. Judge
McEwen declined 10 recognize as
illegal the marriage OF divorced
woman which had occurred inside
OF the prohibited time limit.
The Illinois courts way of look
ing at this question will be interest
ing elsewhere in view of the fact that
H. several other states the divorce
laws have a similar provision against
the marriages of the parties 70 a di-
voroe within a specified time three
months, six months or a year. This
prohibition has generally been con-
sidered a wise and god one, as tend
ing TO put a check on much OF the
scandal attached TO divorces and the
immediate marriage OF one or both |
OF the the parties. Decency has fire.
been outraged by the ease
and haste with which marriage VOWS |
have been laid aside and again
taken up, and legislatures have been
sustained by public sentiment in
legisla,ing against practice that |
