DIVORCE CASE SETTLED

The divoce case of Julia A. Mcbride
VS.. D. o. Mcbride caused considerable
interest in court Tuesday, there being
26 witnesses and as many more spec
tators to the trial. The suit was filed
Aug. IL, plaintiff asking, besides a
divorce, alimony, custody of minor
child and equitable relief; also an in
junction restraining defendant from
interfering with plaintiffs rights in a
farm and home at Medina center,
which plaintiff declares to be her prop
erty. The court granted a temporary
restraining order at the time.
Testimony and arguments in the
case were not all in until late in the
afternoon Tuesday, when Judge Nc
Clure rendered the following decision:
Divorce granted plaintiff, also custody
of minor child. Each party to the sui
is to pay his and her costs. Defend.
ant is deprived of his dover, but plain
tiff must pay him $3.50 for his interest
in the farm.
It developed in the trial that plain.
tiff owned one-half interest in the
farm at the time of her marriage tt
Mcbride and her father owned ths
other half. After marriage the coupl,
conjointly borrowed $1,000, in rount
numbers, with which to purchase th'
fathers share. It was this angle o:
the affair that caused so much troubl'
in sitting out just who was who il
this marital ENHANCEMENT.

COMMISSIONERS MEETING

Aside from examining and ordering
the payment of nrE.ber Of bills and
investigating few other minor mat
ters, the county commissioners at their
meeting Monday did but little. In fact,
about the only thing deserving of
mention was the transfer of $2,533.36
from the River Styx ditch fund 70 the
county fund, also $466.22 from the
Phelps ditch fund to the county fund.
The reason for these transfers is be-
cause the county paid the costs of
clearing out these di-ches before the
regular assessment for such work
had been collected. This custom has
previously been pursued and allows of
necessary work being done when
needed, the proper adjustment Of cost
being made when collections come in.

EXTENSION School
JAN. 81, SEVILLE

Seville is to have one of the Exten-
sion Schools sent out by Ohio State
university during the week of Jan. 81.
Farmers and hc;aer.a.skers have the on
portunity during this week to study
better methods under specialists from
the university, who will give instruc-
ton in Soil Fertility, Farm Crops,
Poultry Raising, Animal Husbandry
and Home Economics.
All the apparatus and materials for
the demonstrations end use by the
students in the laboratory work is
furnished from the university. An ex
tension school has been described as a
travelling college Of agriculture. Each
school is moved to a different locality
each week. Only one school can be
scheduled in a county each year.
The Extension School at Seville was
secured through the community work
and progressive spirit of the farmers
and home makers in that vicinity who
want the opportunity to secure agri-
cultural instruction under the univer-
sity specialists. The worth of the
schools was shown last year by the in
creased interest in better farming
methods in every community. Many
more requests were sent to the uni
versity for schools this year than could
be filled.
Members on the committee ir
charge of the school have full-weel
tickets for sale. The fee is only 6
small part of the expense of holding
the school. Keep the date in mind
talk the school over with your neigh
Dor, secure a ticket and arrange II

courses Of instruction and giving tn

Christmas is in the air! We are
reminded of its nearness at every
street corner; even the most matter
of-fact among us must feel its spirit
and anticipate it's cheer. Safe and
sane Christmas shopping has been
preached for ages but, nevertheless,
each year sees the same crowd in the
shops and hears the same question on
every side "what shall I give for
Christmas" 1t is easily answered
this year if the intended recipiant is
feminine. There are all sorts of
wearables that may be laid at the
dainty maids door on Christmas morn
ing to be received with little excla-
nations of delight.
The Shoppers Costume
If one has time to tarry a moment
or two at the main entrance of one of
the big shops on one of these busy
afternoons, they will have revelation
in clothes. Serge rules in the matter
Of suits and simple frocks; furs are
much in evidence and never have we
had season when they were so be-
coming and so much within the reach
of all pocketbooks. There are wide
soft collars and cuffs; small round
muffs, and any number of other acces-
sories which may be made at home If
desired, and added to the suit of serge
to enhance its charm and style
Scarcely suit or frock, passing in
and out on it's Christmas mission, but
shows this touch of fur; braid, too, is
having its day on tunic and coat; one
cannot but remark the wonderful va,
riety in collars and sleeves. The ma.
Ijority of the suits show the high col
lar, and many of the dresses too, al
though one often glimpses beneatl

In the Way of Sleeves


In the Way of Sleeves
There is the leg-o'-mutton, the
gauntlet sleeve, in many variations,
the bell-sleeve, the angel sleeve, and
the sleeve gathered at armhole and
wrist. It is quite novelty, the sleeve
gathered into the armhole; and it is
true to its old-time inspiration, even
to the slight puff at the shoulder.
One of the most graceful sleeves of
all is the gauntlet with wide, tight
fitting cuff, faring slightly over the
hand. The ugliest hand in the wor' d
must gain in grace with such a cuff.
The full gathered sleeves are particu-
larly graceful and pretty in the trans
parent fabrics now so much favored
| for sleeves in all sorts of frocks.
The serge coat dress is a general
favorite for shopping and street wear.
A particularly chic model is made with
long, pointed tunic, gauntlet sleeves.
high collar and novel surplice clos

braid-covered buttons and loops and
