Minister OutdOes Earle.

The ideas advanced by Artist Earle
who shipped his wife away to France
with their child to obtain a divorce
that he might marry his affinity, are
mediocre compared with those given
expressions to by this man of the
gospel, who asserts that new
thought" has proven the one consola-
ton in life to them.
The laws which govern marriage
and the so-called morals of home life
as they are today must be entirely
changed before there can be any as
surance of happiness in the union of
the man and the woman of this age.
The fact that l am a minister has
encouraged me to make fight for
new laws and new customs which, in
my belief, will solve problems rather
than face which the average man
lives immorally.
The neighbors must learn; they
must be educated to our way of think
ing; and how can that come to pass
without an example?
Some of the neighbors who once
welcomed me to their homes do not
speak when they meet me on the
street and Mrs Dorm is threatened in
the same cruel way, but we are right
and we know it. At any rate, there is
no backing down now. We have TAX
en- a stand and will defend it.
Il am trying to live up to my con-
victions. My brothers of the church
say that I am radical. They go furth-
er, and some have even claimed that
l am a menance to society. I am viii
ling to face their criticisms. for the
men and the women of this thinking
age are no longer willing to be tied
and bound down by the old ideas and
the old thought.
In time there will be a sufficient
number of people with the courage
of their convictions about marriage
to join me in the movement attarct-
ing such worldwide attention.
