Furiously on Snow-clad

Special to The Telegraph

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 20. - A
northeastern blowing thirty miles an
hour and bringing with it nearly two
inches of rain and snow made no diff
ference with the plans of the Harvard
and Yale football teams yesterday.
The Crimson advance guard, consist
ing of twenty players, Head Coach
Haughton and assistant coaches, had
what was termed a satisfactory" try
out in the new bowl.
Much of the drill was devoted to
punting and practice in kicking field
goals. Captain Brickley kicked goals
with his usual accuracy from all an
giles, despite the fact that the grid
iron was covered with slush, and the
water stood inches deep. Mahan also
kicked goals with good success. After
short signal drill the players left
for New London to join the rest of the
Harvard squad tomorrow.
Football enthusiasts were appre-
hensive to-day because of weather
conditions, but the Weather Bureau
said last night indications now point

PENN STATE REGULARS WORK
Special Care to Prevent Injuries In
Preparation for Pitt Game
Special TO The Telsgrdpl

State College, Pa, Nov. 20.-For the
first time in three weeks Penn States
varsity was able to work with its regu-
lar lineup yesterday. With the round
ing up of the cripples Hollenback tried
out new backfield combination that

would stick to it for the Pitt game on
Thanksgiving Day. Higgins played
fulfback, Clark left half. Yerger right
half and Captain Tobin quarterback.
This arrangement puts Welty and
James to the bench. Tobin's re-
appearance with the regulars put new
life into the eleven and he handled the
team with his old-time form. Appar-
emily his two weeks in the hospital
hadn't slowed him up.
While the team had no scrimmage,
it was given q long signal drill on a
frozen field. Hollenback said he would
give the men no rough work while
there was the slightest chance of fur,
ther injuries. The outlook for strong
lineup against Pitt was further bright
ened to-day by the appearance of

Sir Edward Carson, who is on a
visit to Lord Londonderry at Mount

talions of the Ulster Volunteer force.
The parade and march-past were in
the demesne of Col. Chichester at Or

from Belfast, and the Irish Unionist
Leader was accompanied during his
inspection by the Marquis and Mar
chioness of Londonderry, the Duke

Arthur and Lady Annabel O'Neill,
General Sir George Richardson (who
is in command of the Volunteer
Force), Col. Sir Launcelot and Lady

The Belfast contingent is divided into
four divisions, numbering about 81 900,
but today only the East Belfast Regi-
ment came under review. The full
strength of this section is about 5000,
and consists of many men working in
the shipyards, professional and com.
mercial men, shop-keepers and me-

3,267 rank and file actually got upon
parade, with ia officers. The muster
was stated to be at comparatively

Prohibition of Divorce


England stands in bold contrast
with this country. In 1911 she grant.
ed total of only 655 divorces, or 11s
per 100000, while in 1906 the United
States allowed 72,062 divorces, or 80
per 100000. During the twenty years
ending with 1906, Ireland had only Is
divorces, or an average of less than
one absolute divorce per year, for hel
entire population of 4,500,000.
Some Precedents Quoted.
IF tho United States were to write
in the Constitution an amendment pro
hibiting absolute divorce, it would not
be taking such radical step as might
at first be thought, but would be fol
lowing beaten path. Our own state
of South Carolina (all honor to her)
forbids divorce. 1t is absolutely pro
hibited in Italy, Spain and to two
thirds of the population of Austria
Hungary, while the Latin-American
countries have similar laws. A legal
separation, however, without the right
to remarry, is recognized in all OF
these jurisdictions.
ut cannot be gainsaid that divorce
destroys the home. And, the home is
the base and foundation of the state,
hence, we must stop divorce or ruin
the state, which cannot continue to ex.
, list if it's base is allowed to crumble
and fall.
While many excellent people are di.
vorced and some of them make new
homes, the inevitable trend of divorce
is to break up many more homes than
it builds up, and to materially reduce
the number of children. When mar
riage is dissolved the true home ceases
to exist; the parents and children are
separated, and the sweet ties that bind
father and mother to their offspring
and to each other are broken forever
Appeals to Patriotism.
| II appeal to all patriotic citizens
good men of every creed and of nc
creed-to unite in urging the adoption
of my amendment, which has for it's
object the preservation of the home
aye, the preservation of the republic
home, which gave us our earliest and
best lessons in morality; home, where
we were taught to love, honor and
obey our parents and all lawful su.
periors; home, where we received our
first idea of government, little state
in which our fond parents were the
rulers, and we, their children, were
willing subjects; hence, the creates,
protection from anarchy, the strong.
est defense against socialism and the
chief bulwark OF society; hence, the
maker of good citizens and the model
on which every wise government is
founded"
The Irish standard., 1914-02-21

The bill introduced in the senate by
Senator Ransdell of Louisiana is aimed
at absolute divorce in the United
States. The provisions of the bill are
as follows:
Section 1. Absolute divorce with
the right to remarry shall not be per.
mitted in the United States, or in any
place within their Jurisdiction.
Uniform laws in regard to mar.
riage, and to separation from bed and
board without permission to remarry,
shall be enacted for the United States
and all places subject to them.
Section 2. Congress shall have
power to enforce this article by ap.
propriate legislation"
Declaring that the divorce evil has
grown to such vast proportions in the
United States, that only the most
drastic remedy, constitutional pro,
hibition, can prove effective, Senator
Ransdell addressed the Senate in favor
of his amendment. He said:
Practically every one who has given
the subject the slightest study ad.
mits that divorce is one of the most
serious problems confronting our re-
public. In the United States divorce
is spreading with alarming rapidity
1t has permeated every walk of life
and through almost every class, of peo.
pie. The total number of divorces
granted in 1867 was 9,937, or % per
100000 population. Forty years later
in 1906, there were 72,O62 divorces, or
SG per 100000. Thus in actual mum.
bers there were more than seven times
as many divorces granted in 1906 az
in 1867, or, allowing for the increased
population, divorce has increased 319
per cent.
IF divorces multiply at the same
rate in the future as in the past, and
there is every indication that they
will increase faster then before the
middle of this century, we will have
annually in the United States 275 dl.
vorces per 100000 population, or one
divorce for every five marriages.
Our closest competitors in Europe
are Switzerland, with Al divorces an.
nually per 100000 population; Hun.
gary, with 35, and France with 80, ac.
cording to the statistics for 1910 and
1911, while Japan has 215 divorces to
our sc.
TO make most striking compari-
son, during 1901 the total number OF
divorces granted in the United States
was more than twice as great as in
all the rest of Christendom combined !;
yes, actually more than two times as
many divorces among 75,OOO,OOO Amer.
leans that year as among the 100000.
900 souls of Europe and other Chris.
tian countries.
