SAYS DIVORCE IS
NOT A DISEASE

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, January o.
"Americanitis" is the term that Pro
fessor F. G. Peabody, professor of
Christian morals at Harvard, applies
to the divorce conditions existing in
this country.
The disorder evil is a symptom
rather than a disease says DR.. Pea
body.
The primary cause of this symptom
is the social disease of restlessness,
the excitation of the nerves, the con-
dition which may be described as
"Americanitis," and which in family
life takes the form of rebellion, mi
.gratoriness and change Thus the di-
vorce tendency becomes a sign not
of dreariness, but of transition, the
cost of progress paid in the mergence
of more stable social order.
The family is not an accident of
modern life, or contract between
the two parties concerned, but an
institution of society, the unit of civ
ilization, the type which has survived
in the process of social evolution.
"Thus the breakup of the family
system means what the naturalists
call a reversion of type to conditions
of primitive civilization from which
the human hace has slowly and labo-
riously emerged.
1.-TWO conclusions are forced upon
us by these statistics: First that the
divorce movement is proceeding in
this country at a pace unequaled else
where in the world; and secondly,
that it is proceeding at an ever-in-
creasing pace"
