Methodists Approve Physical
Examination Before
Marriage.

Chicago, Oct. 9.-The strongest rec
concentrations with regard to mar
rriage ana divorce ever approved by a
governing body of a church of Prot
estant denomination were adopted yes
terday by the Rock river conference
OF the Methodist church, in session
AT Evanston.
The conference placed itself on rec
ord as favoring the physical examina-
ton of candidates for matrimony, fed
eral control of marriage and divorce,
statutes forbidding the remarriage of
divorced persons, except in certain
cases and laws making wife abandon
ment a felony.
The step follows, but surpasses that
of Dean w. T. Sumner of the Cathe-
oral of SS Peter and Paul, who re-
Gently announced that those who wish
to be united in marriage by him must
undergo physical examinations for fit
ness.
/ The recommendations were present.
ed to the conference by the commit,
tee on marriage and divorce. They
are as follows:
! Marriage and divorce should be reg,
ulated by the state in a most careful
manner. The safeguarding of the
hCme is the states chief business. The
interest of the state in the family is
paramount to the interest of the in
dividual member of the family, be
cause the citizens of the state come
: from the home and are trained foI
citizenship, in large part, in the home
We hold that it is the bounden duty
OF both the state and church to throw
about the home every safeguard, not
only for the physical well being of the
nation, but for the spiritual welfare
of generations yet unborn. To this
end we believe there should be:
l. Federal control of the entire sub
ject of marriage and divorce, insurinG
uniformity of laws.
2. Physical examination of the con
tracing parties to a marriage
3 Wide publicity of the intention o
the parties to enter the marriage state
4. y law compelling the filing of ;
certificate by each party setting fortl
ali places of previous residence.
4. A statute providing that no di
voTCe may be granted except on scrip
tural grounds. 1t should be provided
however, that there may be granted
in certain cases, the right of separatr
maintenance.
6. A statute making abandonment
of wife by husband felony
I. Rigid laws prohibiting the manu-
facture and sale of intoxicating bev
erages, believing, as we do from
close study of statistics, that the us
of liquor, directly and indirectly, i
one of the greatest causes OF divorce.
We further believe that all maj
riages of our people should be pei
formed by clergymen and that the mir
istry of the church should be diligen
in the enforcement of the provisions @
: the church discipline governing mai
riages.
To all our members We would RET
. crate: Be ye not unequally yoked tC
2 gether with unbelievers, lest sorro1

BUFFALO MEAT
FOR OLD SETTLERS
ANNUAL FAIRFIELD CELEBRA'
TON FIRST WEEK OF
.. OCTOBER.

Fairfield, Sept. ia buffalo bar
becue" sounds rather funny at this
day and age of the Jefferson county
citizen, but nevertheless such a thing
is being planned for the annual cele.
bration of old settlers day which is to
be held in Fairfield sometime the first
week in October. ~.
The Singmaster brothers in keota
have a monster buffalo which they
have promised Fairfield people they
will sell for a certain sum Of money.
Fairfield merchants and business men
always alive to the best interests OF
the city are urging that the animal
be purchased at once and that the big
barbecue be held.
The old settlers residing in Fair.
field are thoroughly delighted with
the idea and it is probable that this
will be one of the principal features on
the days program. 1t has been many
years since barbecue was held in
Fairfield and the Oldest inhabitant
does not remember of "a buffalo bar
becue ever being held here.
At the preliminary meeting it was
voted to secure three good political
speakers, one for each party, for the
afternoon program. An automobile
parade, in which every automobile
owner within a radius of sixty miles
will be invited to participate, is to be
arranged for by Dr. w. H. Conner and
Attorney Roscoe Thoma, president and
secretar, If the Jefferson county auto
club.
A second mass meeting to complete
arrangements and name date for this
monster celebration is to be held Fri
day evening at Attorney E. R. Smiths
