THE TELEPHONE GIRL

The telephone girl ats stIll 10 her
chair and listens 10 voices from every.
where. She hears all the gossip. she
hears all the news, she knows who IL
happy and who has the blues: she
knows all our sorrows, she knows all
our joys, she knows every girl who Is
chasing the boys; she knows OF our
troubles, she knows OF our strife, she
knows every man who Is mean to bis
wife; she knows every time we are out
with the boys, she hears the excuses
each fellow employs; she knows every
woman who has a dark past, she
knows every man who's inclined to be
fast; 10 fact, there's secret meath
each saucy curl OF that quiet, demure
looking telephone girl. II the tele.
phone girl would tell all that she
knows IL would turn half friends into
bitterest foes: she would SOW small
wind that would soon be a gale, en-.
gulf us in trouble and land US Ia jail;
she could let go story (which gain.
ing in force) would cause half our
wives to sue for divorce; she could
get all the churches mixed up 10 .
fight and turn all our days into sor.
rowing nights; in fact, she could keep
the whole town 10 stew II she'd tell
tenth part of the things that she
knew. Now doesn't it make your
head whit when you think what you
owe to the telephone girl?

JACKSON MINISTER'S DOWN ON
DIVORCE.

Jackson arion-Ledger.
A radical and decided step with
reference to the question OF divorce
was taken by the pastors OF jackson
10 their associated capacity at their
Monday morning meeting. The sub
ject for the discussion-The Round
Table-at the meeting was, "What is
the Divorce Evil? What is to Be the
Action Of the Ministry" The presi-
dent OF the association, DR.. c. w.
Crisler, had been appointed to lead
the discussion, which he handled ia
an exhaustive and business.like
manner. He summed up the matter
In an epigrammatic statement,
Where doubt arises as to the
propriety OF our performing cere-
mony, give the church the benefit OF
the doubt" Among other things he
said "thc blind tiger and the gamb.
ling evils pale into insignitcan
beside the monster that is invading
the homes of our people through lax
observation OF the martial obliga-
ton" The result OF the discussion,
participated in by Drs. Marlborough,
Riley, Chapline and Carpenter, was
the adoption by unanimous vote OF
the following resolutions:
Whereas, we regard the divorce
evil as being on the increase, and that
1t Is one OF the gravest problems with
which we have to deal as. citizens and
as pastors; and,
Whereas, 1t Is our purpose to check
the same by every means consistent
with the spirit Of our high calling;
therefore
Be it resolved, That it Is the sense
and purpose OF the pastors OF the city
OF Jackson. In their associated
capacity, and as individuals repre-.
senting their several church bodies,
TO withhold their approval from
marriages Of persons who have been
divorced, regardless OF the grounds
upon which such divorce may have
been obtained; and in furtherance OF
their mind respecting the same they
obligate themselves to refuse to
solemnize the marriage Of any couple
either OF which may have been al.
vorced, regardless Of tile ground upon
which the same may have been
obtained.
