30 CASES FOR
DIVORCE COME
UP LAST Term
One Couple Had known Each
Other for a Period Extending
Over % Years.

Facts ON divorce proceedings in
the circuit court during the Janu-
AIRY term as compiled by Clerk
George w. Gamble reveal that a
total of 50 cases were heard by
Judge W. T. Church. The causes
assigned for divorce were as fol-
lows: Desertion, "a; cruelty, IS;
adultery. Is; drunkenness, s; an
nullment of marriage, 5.
Evidently the length of the per-
iod of wooing has nothing to do
with the underlying causes of the
desire for freedom from marital
vows, considering that the longest
period of acquaintance enjoyed by
a couple before having the knot
tied was % years. This, as COM
pared with two weeks, the shortest
period of acquaintance.
Youth, it appears, will have its
fling with the ultimate recourse to
divorce The average age of the
women compliments is 20 years /;
that of the men, "a years. And in

Of the youngest woman at the date
Of marriage was Is, and the young

The number of marriages per-
formed by ministers of the gospel
was listed at 40, while 80 couples
