SoClOLOGiST SUGGESTS
PAY FOR MOTHERS.
Rearing of Children Social Service
Says Professor Howard.

A college of domestic relations in
which the family and its related in
situations should be as freely, openly
and unsparingIy subjected to scientific
investigation as are the problems of
modern political and industrial life is
advocated by George Z. Howard, pro-
fessor of sociology at the University
of Nebraska. He gives his views in
an article published in the American
Journal of Sociology.
1.-The sociologist, the economist, the
household scientist and other special
lists should join forces in such an in.
stitution to give sound training in the
problems of sex, parentage and the
household, he says.
mo more harmful blunder was ever
committed by theological subtlety than
the setting aside of marriage as a di-
vine institution
There should be a revision Of the
matrimonial laws of the country, Pro
fessor Howard declares, and he sug-
gests these improvements:
Endowment of motherhood by the
state.
Adjustment of the common law
marriage.
Twenty days public notice before
the issuing of license.
Limiting marriage to those who are
of age.
OF the endowment of motherhood
Professor Howard says.
Recognizing parentage as a social
service. social duty which should
be paid for at the public expense,
looks very much like social justice.
I'm its administrative division our
matrimonial laws require drastic re-
vision at almost every point. We
need a better and a uniform license
system. so as to secure full publicity
and a faithful compliance with the
spirit of the law
mo standard of legal, mental or
moral fitness is esta blished. Often the
important function of social control In
exercised with incredible ignorance
and leyity. The frivolous or MERGE
nary magistrate and the feet parson
flourish on American soil. The story
of our marriage resorts or Gretna
Greens shows that we have small rea-
son to boast"

Mrs. waldorf Astor, wife Of William
Waldorf Astor's oldest son, are among
the most popular and lavish American
hostesses in England; but, alas, they
were not asked to a seat at the coro-
nation because they are divorced. Mrs.
Waldorf Astor's husband is member
OF parliament, and there is a special
gallery for members wives, but even
from this her divorce viii exclude her.
The handsome and very wealthy
Countess OF STAFFORD, formerly Mrs.
Colgate of New York, was not invited
as a peeress because she has married
as her third husband an Englishman
named Kennard, although she still
sports No. 2's title.
Lady Ashburton, once popular on the
stage as Frances Donnelly, was not
invited because she was an actress,
although she is a bona fde peeress
with firm grip on her peer.
Buxom Camille Clifford, happily
married to the son and heir of Lord
Aberdare, was not invited to the gal
lery reserved for the wives of peers
heirs because she was on the stage.

lowing the coronation and lasting more

they will give similar entertainments
themselves, outdoing the princes and
dukes of England in ma gniicence.
Few Americans Present.
The coronation is to be on Thursday,
June %, and on that day and the pre-
vious Tuesday the king will give great
state banquets. The invitations will
be confined to royal visitors, ambassa-
doris, cabinet ministers and persons of
similar rank, so that few Americans
can be present
On the intervening Wednesday the
kings uncle the Duke of Connaught,
will give a state banquet to guests Of
the same category for whom there is
not room at the kings banquets.
On Tuesday, June 81, there will be
an immense garden party at Bucking-

queen for those who are too modest to
figure at the more ceremonious enter
tainments. Here will come popular ac-
