The boy scouts are taught methods

when they attain a certain degree of
knowledge in that work they receive

know something about the care Of
his teeth, the principles that govern

baths, the effects df alcohol tnd

ton. The boys are also trained in
firemanship. They are taught how
to turn in an alarm, how to prevent
panicS, how to use fire escapes,
ladders and the like and how to
improvise ropes and nets. All this
information is useful to the boys and
they acquire it in the spirit of fun,

Washington, June 25.-Members OF
congress, alarmed at the immensely
of the divorce evil in this country,
are agitating the question of uni
form divorce law for all the states.
Many abuses arise from the wide diff
ference in the divorce laws prevailing
in different states. The congressman
want uniform law adopted by all
the states. Representative Norris, of
Nebraska. is one of the leaders in
this movement.
Mr.. Norris believes that the time
has arrived when effective measures
must be taken, under federal auspices,
to enlist the cooperation of the
states in the effort to obliterate the
twilight zone" between federal and
state powers. He wishes to see con-
gress initiate a movement which will
induce the different states to do that
which Is without the province OF the
national government. Norris plan is
to have congress put the matter di-
rectly up to the states and request
them to do the work which it cannot
do
While it is generally conceded that
it is desirable to have a uniform di-
vorce law, such a law passed by con-
gress would be unconstitutional. The
state legislatures have requested con-
gress to pass laws, but this is about
the first case where congress has
been asked to invite the state legis-
latures to act Oh the subject. 1t is
proposed that President Taft request
the governors Of the states to send
representatives to congress of del
egates TO be held in the hall of the
house of representatives to formulate
a uniform law of marriage and di.
vorce and submit the SAME TO the
legislatures. 1t is proposed that each
state be entitled to two delegates
and each delegate shall be allowed
to receive his actual expenses in go
ing to. attending. and returning from
the sessions. The congress shall re-
port it's findings and recommenda
tions to the president, who shall for
ward the same to the states, with the
request to each governor that he lay
them before the legislature.
Two hundred thousand dollars is
to be appropriated by congress to
defray the expenses of the delegates
and if more is necessary addtiona.
appropriations are to be made BY
paying the way OF the delegates, it is
