Mr.. Chapple is a Pensacola enthu-
siast to the core.
When he gets back to Boston after
a trip south, he says that his friends
up there inquire every now and then.
Isn't there any other city in Florida
other than Pensacola r. and is the
San Carlos hotel the only hotel in the
south? p
Which, of course, goes to show what

Divorce is easy, and were it ten times
as hard, that would not matter once
the individual got tied up in disagree
able matrimony. Most of the divorce
cases in the courts in this state are
traceable to early marriages, unions
made before the contracting parties
had reached maturity. And these
hasty marriages are largely the re-
suit of ignorance and neglect of duty
on the part of parents. Wrong teach
ing or no teaching at all, neglect Of
the youths rights to know and to as
sociate with those of its age, bad
selection of literature, lack of discre-
ton in selecting associates and a.
musements. these are live subjects
for parents to get busy on when
brooding over the reports that come
from St. Anthony at this time.
