 W. II Sehnitzer. Reno divorce specialist has written a treatise divorce practice and pro cedure. in which he throws an illuminating ray on the wherefore of the popularity of Reno as divorce center He says:
 While the laws of the eastern and middle western states generally contain some provision for the dissolution of the marriage tie. il is ob vious to the reader that in cases where extreme cruelty. deserton, and failure to provide form the basis of the grievance. the law in such states O.. fers no substantial relief to the aggrieved party because the requirements Of proof duration Of ofense corroboration Of plaintiff and procedure under court rules are eXacting and irksome that the desired relief sought by the applicant is rendered impossible of attainment Summing up the situation it exists fin the eastern states respecting the domestic relation law. the client when consulting local counsel Is almost iuxarf. ably advised that upon the facts submitted he CT she is without remedy.

NORTH GLOBES PETITION

\ petition about to be submitted to the fed
eral postofce authorities asks for the establish
ment of branch pOstofice i'll North Globe. The
document in which this request is made bears
the signatures of some six or seven hundred
residents of the north end of the city and it is
practically certain that the proposal for the
founding of such an Office to distribute the
mail matter of the people in that part of Globe
will find much sentiment in favor of it, not
only among the citizens Immediately interested,
but also among those living in other parts of
the town.
In IA city where the business and residential
section extends as far longitudinally as that Of
Globe the justice of the petitioners request
can readily be seen. 1t is not generally realized
by the average person living in Globe that the
north limits of the city lie far outside the dis
trict that is now thicky settled Within the
municipal boundaries is included large area
of land lying considerable distance beyond the
Old Dominion plant, although the plant itself
is not embraced by the city's limits. 1t can
be argued, perhaps, at the present time, that the
outlying district is not yet sufficiently settled
TO lend strength to any argument for branch
postoffice in North Globe, but with the building
of the trolley line through that part of the
city, which now seems to be assured for the
near future, it is positive that the city will
soon extend rapidly in that direction, and ulti-
mately necesstate different facilities for mail
distribution than are now afforded
Aside from this fact, there is reason in the
objection of North Globe residents that they are
too far removed from the postoffice at present.
and there is strength in their contention that
present conditions combined with these that
are sure to arise in the near future with the
growth of the city, Justify the establishment of
branch postofice in their neighborhood
