HUSBAND opposed TO DANCING
AND THAT'S WHY
HE WANTS LEGAL
SEPARATION

Ability as skirt dancer is
made one of the grounds of COM
plaint i'm the cross bill OF Albert
Rowland Thayer to the petition
of his wife, Myrah A. ", Taynton
Thayer, who recently brought suit
against him for divorce, aIimony
and custody of their one child.
"She is obsessed with the idea
she has great talent as skirt
dancer and at various times" says
the husband in his cross bill," and
declares that contrary to his
wishes she has appeared ut various
times i'm various places to dance,
while garbed in an improper and
indecent costume"
Mrs. Thayer is we'll known as a
local dancer and officiated prom
inently at the stadium and other
public functions. She operates a
flower store known as LA Jar
diniere," at North 9Th and l
street, and is well known.
She complains her husband
failed to provide and was cruel.
He answers that her violent tenn
per and treatment of him before
their child made It impossible for
him to live with her and in fact
that she has refused to live with
him as a wife.
He asks that he be given the
divorce and custody of the child,
avering that because of her devo-
ton to the skirt dancing she is not
fit to have custody of the child.
The question of temporary ali
mony in the case comes up before
Judge Card tomorrow.

The first parcels post delivery In
Tulsa was made yesterday afternoon
at O'clock The package came from
Springfield, Mo, and was consigned
to the Kistler Drug company. 1t con-
sisted OF medicine that had been or
dered by telegraph, thus illustrating
how the parcels post Is valuable In
making quick delivery OF rush orders
for such necessities as medicines. The
package weighed "a ounces and the
postage amounted to II cents. Under
the old postal law the rate would
have been "a cents.
The parcels post business, put into
operation January l. has started Oft
with n rush and bids fair to greatly
congest the local postoffice. When
the postoffice closed last night on
the second day of the operation of the
parcels post, nearly five hundred pack
ages, aggregating several thousand
pounds, had been mailed by Tulsa
people.
Much OF this mail was lying In
stacks on the floor of the pOstoffice,
waiting a chance to be removed as the
force Of help employed here Is not
adequate to cope with this big in
crease over the regular postoffice
business.
a large percentage of the packages
mailed weighed up to the limit OF
eleven pounds. so It can be seen that
it is no easy job to handle these pack
ages.
Taking into consideration that the
first day Of the operation Of the new
law was a legal holiday and the post
office only opened a few hours, it can
be easily seen that the parcels post
bids fair to be very popular with local
people.
In addition to the large amount OF
packages mailed out Of here, there
has been a big increase in the amount
of mail received for distribution here
due to the operation Of the parcels
post.
Several packages are being held at

them as they We're mailed without the
