it may seem, the wedding today OF
Prince Victor Jerome Frederic Bona
parte. the French Pretender. and Prin-
cess Clementine, daughter OF the late
King Leopold of Belgium. was the re-
suit of a romance of true love. The

performed by the Bishop OF Bella and
the civil ceremony by the Mayor OF

several years ago and fell in love at

should marry a real king instead OF
a mere pretender. Another thing. he
did not care for diplomatic troubles
with France. by having a pretender

Throughout the United States thero

signed to olace complete control IN

who was delegate TO the convention
OF the American Institute of Homeo
pathy, in Pasadena, Cal, where reso-
luton was adopted against the Owen
bill, says in regard to the trouble
between the homeopathic and the reg.
ulars":
I'VE are opposed TO the Owen bill
because IL aims to place the control
of all things medical in the hands OF
the allopaths. Such power as that
would be unfair to the homeopathic.
| for the reason that we would be cut
off from representation on medical ex-
animation and registration boards. In
| Michigan we would not likely suffer
| lust now, because the law specifies
| that the homeopaths shall have two
representatives on the registration
board But we would suffer In other
states where there Is no such statu-
tory provision.
I'VE believe, however. that the Gre
alton OF a federal health department.
would not be a bad thing. II its pow
ers be limited. We don't think that
Il should have supervision over any
thing but sanitation and hygiene. It
can find plenty to do in these two
fields. Some OF the allupaths them
selves are not in sympathy with the
bill as a whole, and they are openly
opposing It. They. together with
homeopaths and students of differ
ent colleges, have organized what 10
known as the National League
for Medical Freedom which is put

been justified in seeking the complete
separation it appears but reasonable
that he should be required to contrib
ute in measure to her support. The
liberality of the support should be
measured by the conditions of each
case. Where there are young children
and the mother must give her time
in attending to them, the alImony
should be as adequate for support as
the fathers finances will permit.
Where there are no children and the
woman is in physical condition to con-
tribute to her own support it is doubt
full whether, under the circumstances
surrounding the average divorce case,
the alimony, if any is granted, should
be more than an assistance to the Wo-
man and not a complete support
Judges who have studied such matt RS
closely state from personal observa-
ton that they have noticed an in
creasing tendency on the part of wo-
men to seek divorce with alimony on
grounds that are frivolous. Instead of
seeking to adjust differences that
spring up in their home life, the
first thing thought of by some women
appears to be to sever the ties, secure
alimony, and enjoy life without the du-
ties and restraints attached to married
life. The granting of alimony in such
cases is held by these judicial specta-
tors of marital infelicfties to be an in
justice ito the man and a constant in
centive to other women of similar in
clinations to follow such example.
The question is a very difficult one
to solve. 1t would be manifestIy I'M
just to the wife who has been i'll treat
ed or grossly wronged to shut her of
from alimony. 1t may be that the laws
need revising, but nothing should be
done that prevents a judge or jury

is forced to leave the man who has
taken a solemn obligarbn to Glove,

The increasing tendency of some If
the courts to give large alimony in
divorce cases has attracted considera-
BILE attention of late, not only in Geor-
gia, but in other states In this state
two or more judges have come out
strongly in opposition to alimony, ex-
oept in cases where the evidence in
disputably proves serious wrong doing
on the part of the husband. They make
the point that separations for minor
differences do not justify the courts
in saddling the expense of supporting
the former wife on the man. Perhaps
if this opinion were generally taken
it migS be, as the Griffin Herald
maintains, that some women would
be slower in seeking separations.
The question Of mans duty to-
support divorced wife is one into
which many elements may enter. If

~" IIlI CAOoG III ulSU pldCeS are
beginning to sit up, take notice of
and condemn the lack of thoroughness
in the lower grades, indeed, in all the
grades of our public school system
generally, it is quite possible that ed
ucators will cease their tendency to
multiply studies, cease their efforts to
convert the public school system into
more or less of preparatory course
for college, and get it down to what
it should be, a thorough and practi-
cal education of the average child
for the ordinary work of life.
A child who has gone to school for
eight years or more and is unable to
write a letter that viii pass muster
from the standpoints of spelling, pune
tuation, grammar and the expression
OF the meaning intended, is a refIec-
ton on the school system. Yet we all
recognize that it is a fact that many
children, one is almost tempted to say
majority. cannot do this simple
thing. This can only be charged TO \
lack of thoroughness in their train
ing in the actual rudiments of an
English education. And this lack of
thoroughmess in this elementary train
ing frequently interferes seriously
with them in after business or profess
sional life.
The three RS are just as vitality i'm
portant today as they ever were. Give
child thorough instruction in
reading, writing and arithmetic, spell
ing being included under the term
reading, ground him thoroughly in the
principles Of good speech, and he is
then pretty well qualified, if he has
any ambition to go ahead, by personal
application to master almost any
branch of study he desires to pur-
sue. The very thoroughness in his
work in the elementary studies has
given his character a trend in the On.
rection of thoroughness in all things.
too, that will stand him in good
stead through life But slip-shod,
Indifferent manner Of teaching. based
on curriculum that is too extensive

weakens instead Of strengthening char
acter. And if the schools fail to in
sist on correctness, on thoroughness.
then they are failing in a very vital
element of character and weakening
the boy or girl in the preparation
for the struggles of life that are just
ahead
The smattering of this, that and the
other study that now interferes with
thorough drilling in the elementary
branches is the curse of the public
school system. A little bit Of history
a little bit of algebra, a little bit of
Latin, little bit of astronomy, a little
bit of manual training, a little bit Of
everything, and no completeness
about anything, when will it cease
and a more sensible system take pos
session of the educators? Every city
in the country seems to be possessed
with the idea that it must make a
college out of its high school and
that, regardless of the fact that the
vast mass of children never go to
the high school or the college, drive
them along the path intended to lead
them to college, {, path that too often
only turns them loose for life's work
deficient in the very things it is
most important they should be thor
ouch in.

LACK OF THOROUGHNESS IN THE

q agree with the gentleman from

this country should be more thorough
and on that subject | must say that he
IS nearer right than he has been for

Il believe that the ambition of the
school superintendent throughout
the country who have charge of pri-
mary and secondary education has
led us into a lack of thoroughness

that applicants for admission into
West Point and Annapolis fail in ma
ny instances on subjects that every
schoOlbOy ought to know They can
not spell and are deficient in other
rudimentary branches. Extract from
