# # # Solon Would Protect Henpecked Husbands

1AtlPcChcu IuSUdiluS
 F Representative Blount of Wash S ington county has his way the henpecked husbands of Alabama will find relief in courts of equity. MT. Blount introduced a bill in the house allowing husbands to sue for divorce from belligerent spouses when mar ried life becomes unendurable.
 All of which brings up the old ques- tion as to whether Or not the female of the species is more deadly than the male. Henpeckery originated in the Garden of Eden and has doubtless caused more acute suffering than all the wars waged for conquest and pow CT. When a wife stops short of as- sault and battery, there is no recourse for the unfortunate husband. He must "carry on." Nine times in ten he lacks the courage of Petruchio to tame a shrew.
 But Representative Blount will not accomplish what he hopes to do. Even though henpeckery were put on the statute books as legal cause for divorce, few henpecked husbands would avail themselves of the relief offered. Most of them lack initiative and the power to do their own think ing. Granted that they mustered up courage to battle for their liberty, Friend Wife, learning what was in the wind, would issue an ultimatum and there the matter would end.
 * # * German Delegates Meet Where
 Goethe and Schiller Lived NOMPARATIVELY few people in NJ America had ever heard of Wei mar until the German national assem- bly convened there, but the quaint old town is much in the public prints just now.
 Weimar is the capital of the grand duchy of Saxe-Weimar. Before the war it had a population of 26,670. It is chiefly known as literary center, having been the home of Goethe and Schiller What pity that the influ- ence of these lofty souls could not have been greater and more lasting on their countrymen. To the old type of Germans Weimar is still memo rial city, dedicated to the golden per- iod of their literature.
 Weimar has survived Prussianism Uhe court theatre where the assembly is being held has striven to preserve the ideals of Goethe and Schiller ir an age-of materialism, symbolized by the Hohenzollerns and the Krupps and their following, the "Potsdam gang" Although crowded with dele gates who hope to fashion the thew Germany" Weimar is still quiet placs, rich in tradition and dreaming of the past.
 In front of the court theatre stands

enjoy 1t is a good show" said John w. Caldwell land 1t always adds to my en- 1oyment if I am in company with some one seemingly enjoying the performance. Last week I had as my guest for a day Fred Wall of Athens, and in the evening we went to see Going Up at the Jeffer- son, and I have never seen anyone so thoroughly enjoy a show as did my friend from the city with the Grecian cogromen.

haps we did not learn so much as
some have claimed, we all realize
that we came to know that we could
live comfortably without many Of the
things we once imagined We could
not get along without. Men of big
affairs, who should be in a position to
know more OF the subject than the
average individual, assert that this
country is going to have a certain
number of years of marvellous pros
perity. They do not say how long
this period is going TO last but they
are positive that ii is already in the
beginning. Ordinarily thrift and pros
perity are not so closely related as
they should be, but if this country
can have few years Of good bust
