Ever since the telephone was dis
covered, America, the land of its

WRONG VIEWS OF MARRIAGE
Brooklyn Lawyer Tells of Some Popu-
lar Impressions That Are Entire
iy Erroneous.

Some persons believe, says Mr..
Hugo Hirsh of the Brooklyn bar, in
Case and Comment, that marriage
can be entered into by any man or
woman, regardless of age. race, re-
lationship, or condition. But in this
they are mistaken, for every state has
its own peculiar laws regarding, limit
ing and circumscribing entrance into
this relationship as the same may be
affected by those provisions.
Some persons believe that fraud,
force, duress, coercion, used for the
purpose of bringing about marriage
between man and woman, do not af-
feet the legality of the relationship,
but in this they are mistaken, because
every state and territory has a law
providing for the annulment of mar
riages caused by fraud, force, etc.
Some men believe that wives are
chattles and may be beaten into sub
mission. This is grave error, for in
many of the states such conduct is
cause for an absolute divorce, and in
nearly all of the states it is cause for
a legal separation.
