thought occurred to DR.. Smith that there
is anything in common between these two
departments of labor. About thxt time
DR. Smith formed the opinion that sociol-
ogy might prove one Of the best instru-
ments for the Interpretation of the Bible.
and that on the other hand the Bible
might prove to be one of the best sources
of sociological material
Dr. Smith says that his past 10 years
of study has been largely influenced by
this conclusion. During two winters DIR.
Smith pursued the joint study with select
ed companies of students. The work
seemed so promising that four years ago
Dr. Smith offered work in biblical sociol-
ogy to his classes in the university above
mentioned.
This book is condensation of part OF
the work done in the university classes.
The survey of the work will be completed
in another volume in the course of prepa-
ration dealing with the domestic, political
and industrial life of the Hebrews. DR..
Smith has avoided notes, debates and ci-
tations of authorities in the interest Of
brevity and cearness.

NOVEL DEGREES
Oddities In Divorce DEGREES ia CHI
cagO.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
One of the most peculiar decisions ever
rendered in the history of the Indiana
courts was made by Judge vergil S. Rie-
ter of the Lake county superior court at
Hammond last week, when he granted a
..limited' divorce TO Mrs. William Wo-
hole of that city.
The Woholes are divorced for period
of five years, after which time they can
live together IL they should so desire. Ii
during that period they should make up
and wish TO be remarked they would
have to wait until the five years have ex-
PRED. Furthermore, il within that space
of time the couple should go out of the
state and rewed and then decided to get
a divorce after the expiration of the
five years, they would have to get two
divorces in order to be legally separated
The unusual decision created much
comment in local judicial circles, and
was the object of considerable criticism.
In speaking of the decree Judge Jesse
Holdom said: Il think Rieter's decision
Is very inconsistent. In the first place,
1t is against the policy of state to keep
married people apart. except. of course
in case of crime. Marriage Is con-
tract and the court cannot deprive a
couple of their rights to keep that con-
very foolish
Judge Arthur II. Chetlain doubted If
such divorce could be regulated. I've
have no such law in the Illinois stat
utes." he said. THE idea is somewhat
similar to separate maintenance, but do
not think the system of limited divorce
could be regulated. I suppose that it
would be contempt of court II the couple
should live together after such a decree
had been signed"
Judge Albert =. Barnes said.
II have never heard of any similar de-
cfsion before this. There Is only one sec
ton of the Illinois law that is in the least
similar to the Indiana statutes concerning
limited separation and that is that our
law prohibits a Divorce from marrying
again within period of one year. un-
less, of course. the couple divorced wish
TO rewed, and that can be done at any
time. 1t is also Illegal for divorced
person to go out of this state to be re-
married before the year - up"
