the freight traffic originating in Tex
as county and outbound from Tex
homa is grain. There Is an unusual
ly lar~e crop of wheat there this year
ard 1t is practically all being export
ed. Hence is being shipped through
Texas to Galveston.
The railroad at Texhoma runs
north and south. One end OF the de-
pot is in Texas and the other end in
Oklahoma by driving their wagons
to the sonth end of the depot farEa-
ers having grain to ship (sending It
for export) bill it out on the Texas
grain rate, which is II cents to their
advantage, for II they billed 1t out at
the north end OF the depot which
would be in Oklahoma, they would
have to pay the Interstate rate. This
is accepted by all concerned as moth
ing but fair, and while there is an adj
vantage to the farmer. it does not IN.
jure anyone else, and the railroads.
are not responsible for this condi-
tion.

1t is no common thing to find men
getting marrier for the second, third

liable statistics, believe it is safe to
say that 20 per cent of the men who
get marriage licenses in Wayne county
have been married at least once be-
fore.
do women banker after second
marriage the way men do? l should
say not OF course there are a few
widows who want to tie up again, but
in spite of all we read about widows
seheming, the number who apply here
for licenses is comparatively negli-
gible.
This disparity between the numbers
of widows and widowers is not a con-
dition of week, month or a year.
| have noticed it for several years and
have often asked men why they de-
sired second marriages. Few of them
said it was because of love, and love
alone. Most said it was because they
were lonesome or longed for some
one to take household responsibilities
off their shoulders or needed a wom-
an to care for their children.
But all the men admitted that their
lives were incomplete, in one way or
another, without wives. 1t seems as il
nowadays marriage is more essential
to man than woman.

Ficularly to the work done through
the American offices, at II Broadway,
New York.
The Belgians' appreciation of what
America has done for them, he asserts.
is as enthusiastic and sincere today as
was in the earlier stages of their dire
needs. The vast cargoes of -four and
wheat, shipped into the various prov
inces of Belgium, have saved the lives
of millions of people in that country,
and he takes occasion to speak of the
Belgians belief in the superiority of
the American flour. Possibly this was
regarded as ver-enthusiastic in the
part of the people, who for some time
prior to receiving the first consign-
ment of American -four, had been sub
sisting on brown bread.
The writer describes the work of
feeding the destitute in Brussels, and
says: The center of this work is the
large storehouse of the Messtgerie
van Gand, which is now the main
kitchen, where soup is made for $780,
600 people every morning. The mel
in charge of the cooking are chefs
from some of the leading hotels in
Brussels, and most of them are vol
unteers. Fifteen thousand gallons of
soup and large quantities of potatoes
and boiled meat are cooked and sent
out daily to the twenty-six subsidiary
canteens. After the soup is cooked, it
is sent under the seals of the Commits
sion and the protection of the Ameri-
can flag. The twenty-six subsidiary
canteens are buildings formerly occu-
pied by dance halls, schools, munich
pal buildings and other structures,
that are large enough and suitably
situated" Mr.. Gailor emphasizes the
fact that the Commission has been
enabled to furnish bread at about one
penny less per ration than the present
price of bread in London. Both class
es the rich and the poor. reae.ve the
same ration of 1926 grams, or three
quarters of pound of bread, per day;
the destitute receiving the same ration
that is given out to those able to pay
for it.

ITALIANS NOT
ANXIOUS To
LEAVE GERMANY

BASEL, July 16-The south Ger
man press is greatly exercised over
the problem of what is to become OF
the Italians residing il Germany. The
authorities seem to believe that those
who would not be liable for military
service in Italy should be at liberty to
stay or to leave Germany with their
families, as they prefer. For those
between the ages of II and 55 re-
straint under police supervision ia
suggested. Such Italians as are en-
gagged in industries where their labor
owing to the shortage of men is in.
dispensable, will probably be permit
ted to continue their work under the
supervision of their employers.
At Brehl in Baden 500 Italians of
military age have held a meeting and
addressed the following letter to the
former Italian Consul at Mannheim,
who had advised them to return to
Italy:
Respecting your orders to all of us
to return to Italy to fight against Ger
many, we leave that to you Here
