Mrs. Taft is very int6lerant of the
divorce evil, and Il thinks something
should BE done to put n stop to the TAX

wives as one losses aside a garment
that is cut of style. But she does be.
lieve that limited divorce is sometimes
necessary. She says that people who
are divorced should not be permitted tc

Here is what Fighting Bob" Evans
said to some boys on Flag Day when
he was called upon to speak:
II was boy once myself, and I am
sure 1 was about the average boy, and
as bad as most of them. Play for all
there is in the game, but play fair ''
Don't spike your man on the second
base, and if it is football. when you hit
the line. hit it hard. but keep your
fingers out of the other fellows eyes.
"All there is in life for you is ahead
of you. Fight fair, and don't be afraid
to work overtime. Don't kick if you
have to get UP before sunrise ard work
till after sunset. 1t is good for you.
Then some day you may be working
for your country.
while you are boys, tho. if you hear
a man or boy say anything against your
country or our flag, lick him or get
whipped before you quit.
''The--greatest honor man can at
tain is the privilege of fighting for his
country. No one can die in a nobler
cause than by being shot down in de-
tense of his country and his flag /
wish you all the luck there is in life,
and health. wealth and prosperity"
The Admirais remarks were greeted
with cheers. When he stopped all pres

three resounding cheers were given for

man M. Ruick and United States Mar

Mr. Bonaparte was strongly opposed
to the removal of these officers. and
the President finally took the matter
out of the Attorney Generals hands.

The President decided some weeks

It seems to he taken for granted Mr.
