evening at Seattle, a reverend gen.

position from his pulpit that the

on the same date, a prominent Jew.
ish Rabbi, in public address, stated
that the facility with which divorces
are granted tends to the purity OF
home life; that the time will surely
come when marriage will be a less
commercialized institution. and So
ciety will demand the same standard
of morals from men as it does more
from women. While eminent divines
are discussing the marriage institu
