Thirty-Five Per Cent of Divorce
Petitions Fail.
Husbands or Wives Make Up
and Withdraw.
CHILDREN IN GREAT INFLUENCE
Topeka Parents Reunite for
Sake of Little Tots.
Fear of Publicity Has Effect in
Home Troubles.

It taks more nerve TO get a divorce
than it does to file a divorce petition.
Statistics gathered in the office of
Mrs. Mary E Chaplin, clerk Of the
district court. bear out this state
ment. These figures indicate that
fully IS per cent of the indignant hus-
bands and wives who file divorce
petitions kiss and makeup before the
sixty days necessary to get action on
a petition.
Various reasons are assigned for the
change in heart in the s5 per cent of
the discontinued husbands and wives
who air their grievances before the
public and then forget them, tenn
porariIy, at least. Church influences
sometimes bring about a withdrawal
Of a petition. Parental influences
often cause a reconciliation
Children Lead Them
The wife's knowledge that bread
and butter must be considered often
occasion a change of heart Children.
and the fear of the influence that a
separation will have on the future
lives of the children. probably do
more to keep domestic fires burning
than anything on earth A enid VIII
cause a father or mother TO STOP looh
and listen
Threats of wife Of husband to
bring the family skeletons out OF the
closet and expose the real cause for
the filing of a petition and the ensu-
ing publicity often bring them to
time Many divorces cases in which
gross neglect and abandonment are
charged are lAerely camouflage for a
much more sensa tional and shameful
state of affairs in a household The
pride of a husband or wife forces
them to resume domestic ties.
Father Time Is An Aid.
The 60-days demanded before &C
ton can be taken on a divorce petition
are looked upon as a GOd-send to the
domesticity of the American by jurists.-
Often, a hot headed wife or husband
leaves the house in the morning, VOW
ing to never again return to the one
whom they selected as a help-mate
thru life.
Ordinarily so days is sufficient time
for a cha nge of heart to be effected, If
such a thing is possible. Often, two
or three days is the time necessary for
both persons to feel bad and call up
the clerk, demand the amount OF
money already expended. appear
shame faced at the court house, pay
the court costs and walk away from
that building hoping never to see 1t
