Il think the mother of siX-year-old

fers," said just such mother. Il
took Johnny to his paternal grandfa-
ther's last week, and believe he has
cut us out of grandfather's will. OF
course, we send him to Sunday school
and we both attend church, but we
do not ask blessing at the table, nor
do we have family prayers. Grandfa-
ther does, and it happened that the
morning after we arrived Johnny was
excused from the table and went out
in the yard to play. Grandfather led
the way into the sitting room and we
all knelt down in prayer. Imagine my
horror to see Johnny's little face peer
ing curiously through the blinds and
hear him sing out: Hey, in there.
what kind of a game is that you're
playing? Amt you the rotten bunch
not to let me in on it. l arose and
softly whispered to him to run on and
play, and he sang out: You're it,
mamma, you're it; make home run.
Now, what can you do with small

come back for several dayi. 1t might be men,
toned in this connection that the divorce colony
has brought to Reno 100 motor cars.
The leading hotels always crowded, and
the rents for cottages have appreciated. on the
average. to the extent of so per cent in the last
six months. In some instances the increase has
been much greater. One cottage that rented for
$50 month in January last, now returns its own
er rental of $100 month.
Perhaps the thing that endears Reno to
the visiting divorcee more than anything else is
Its proximity to San Francisco. One may board a
train in Reno and be in the Pacific coast metrop
oils in ten hours. Despite its manifold attrac
tions. life in Reno is likely to wear rksome upon
those who have been used to existence in larger
centers, and the visitors, to great extent. soon
er later during their stay, take trip or half
dozen trips. over the Sierras to the city by the
Golden Gate.
monotony of life in Reno do not impair the resi-
dence qualifications necessary to the obtaining
of a divorce To again quote the Nevada divorce
authority already mentioned:
Under the provisions of Section % of the
Marriage and Divorce act, the plaintiff must
side in the state for period of at least six
months. This is not construed to mean that in
order to fully comply with the statute the party
must remain here continuously for said period
So If a party comes to Nevada, and in good faith,
takes up residence, the party may leave the
state at any time after establishing residence,
may go and travel when and wherever the party
chooses, and may return to the state whenever in
clination prompts, and yet such temporary abb
sence would not IN any wise affect the legality of
the residence established, but the party would be
entitled under the law to bring suit any time
after the lapse of six months from the date resi-
dence originally established, Notwithstanding
the partys absence from the state during said
period"
Biased somewhat by the financial seductions
of the situation and yet to learn the lesson that
such state of affairs can only result in the NOR
al degradation of the youth of the community-a
lesson which caused South Dakota to reform her
divorce laws-Reno appears to be perfectly
tented with things they are.
But Reno is busiy engaged in cleaning house,
and 1t is felt by the most reflective observers that
the divorce laws of Nevada now written will
be thing Of the past In the neal future. Not In
