WHY MARRIAGE is FAILURE
Net Affinity, M0ther-in-Law or Sa-

Silly Romantic Notions.

Kansas City, Dec. 1.-THE investi
CATION of Miss Tiera Farrow, Kan
sas City's first woman divorce proc.
tor, have brought TO her the conclu
sion that neither the affinity, thc
mother-in-law, nor the corner salooi
plays the most potent part in caus.
ing unhappy. homes. The trouble, sh>
believes, Is TO be found rather in 4
false ideal of married life. In hcl
inquiry she has found:

That because the ideal Of married
life as a rose garden Of love, CLEANED
from novels, does not come true, the
young wife grows Disconnected and
fails to make success OF her Job rs
Il homcmaker.
"0f course the. fault is not all on
the part of the woman" said Miss
Farrow. 'In perhaps a greater num-
Der Of instances the men arc at fault.
But there would be many more sue
cessful marriages if girls were
brought up with more of the materia-
listic and less of the romantic idea.
81 see SO many disappointed girl
wives who had believed that mar
rIage had meant sort of Utopi;in

or drudgcry. Men seldom have this
but too often they shirk

Commissioners Charge of Illegal APP
preparation for Schools Unanswcr-
ed. -
Not in the least mitigatcd is the
ofFensc of the Richmond city council
against the constitution Of Virginia
By the fact that disregard for the con-
stitutien has become a habit, accord
ing to the contention of Commissioner
Carlton MCCARTHY. His charge that
the last council violated the consti-
tuition by enormously exceeding the
appropriation for the city schools is
based on section 1875 of the constitu-
ton.
In this section is specified the tas;
to be levied for the support of the
schools, apportioning for the purpose
san annual tax On property of not
less than one nor more than five mills
on the dollar" More than the amount
of the maximum tax cannot be legally
expended. In 1914 the city council APP
propriatcd more than million dol
lars in excess of the maximum allow
ed by the constitution.
In that year only about 100000
could be legally taken from the
budget for schools, according to The
figures showing the assessment of
property in Richmond, ard allowing
the maximum tax Of five nils. To
this time no member of the council
he's disputed the contention Of Com
missioner Mccarthy. No member has
registered denial of his charge that
the council has pcrsistcntly violated
the constitution in this respect and is
again preparing to renew the offense
against the constitution in adopting
the 1917 budget.
