THIS WEEK WITH
R0SYPR0SPECTS
Big Registration Assured
With Students From
All Sections; Many
Campus improvements

When the College of Idaho opens
its doors for registration Tuesday
for the l920-2l school year, it will
open to the largest number of stu
dents that has ever been enrolled at
the rapidly growing CALDWELL insti-
tuition.
Preparatory for what promises to
be the most successful year of its
history, considerable improvements
have been in the buildings and on the
campus. All the college buildings
have been renovated. the woodwork
redressed and the interiors retinted.
A new concrete, walk, six feet wide,
has been constructed from the Nc
Neil Interurban line north of the
campus through the entire campus
grounds.
Among the students who are expect
ed to enroll are three young men
from New England. OF these, East
man is from Kimball Union academy
in New Hampshire and Mr.. Boals Is
from Phillips Exeter academy. Wade
Lowell, who has been attending Kim
ball Union academy, will be back al
the College of Idaho this fall. The
west will also be represented, student:
coming to Caldwell from Portland te
attend the local college. Idaho, a:
usual, will be we'll represented.
Indicative of the increasing popu
larity of the college is the fact thai
every room in both dormitories ha!
long been engaged. Some rooms fol
students have been engaged outside
but it is asserted that more will 'b'
required. Last year the total regis
tration was 243. This number will
undoubtedly be considerably exceed
ed this school year.

Deer Flat Bridge

Caldwell and Nampa Committees Re

tional Expenditures on Structure.

Wednesday evening, the matter OF
bonding Canyon county for the cree
ton of the long sought bridge across

roughly estimated at 100000 was
given its initial setback when COM

for the structure.
w. H. L. Neimeyer, secretary O
the Nampa Chamber of Commerce
advocated immediate action on tn
matter but the remainder of the com
mittee, including Walter Miller, tn
other Nampa representative, felt tina
the likelihood that any bond issue, un
der existing conditions, could not car
ry, did not warrant the initial expens
that this plan entailed.
While all recognized that construc
ton of the bridge would serve tn
interests of residents below the reser
voir, It was felt that the expenditur
of this large sum would not be ad
visabie for the interest of so com
paratively few of the total population
of the county when so many othe
things of general benefit were re
quired. Z
No definite action, looking to sur
veying the site and compiling esti
mates, was authorized and it is be
lieved that nothing further will b
done with this matter for the tim
being or at least until the bond mar
ket materially strengthens.

Divorce in England.

years In order to free themselves
from an intolerable marriage
There are many other cases IN Eng
land, as in this country, Of persons
who have separated but are unable
TO get q divorce, and contract free
unions, although often they would
prefer marriage. A great and. m
creasing number Of judicial sepa-
rations" are granted in England.
and these. too. are productive Of
many extra-marital relations. In
this way the severe divorce law
tends to defeat the marriage law.
The need for reform has become
especially pressing in England
since the war, which created q
great many causes for divorce.
Cheaper Divorce.
The new British measure ID de-
signed to make divorce cheaper.
and to give the sexes equal right OF
initiative. In addition to this it
greatly broadens the causes for
which divorce may be obtained. 1t
proposes. the granting Of divorce
for adultery, cruelty, desertion for
three years, incurable insanity
after five years confinement.
drunkenness found to be incurable
after three years, venereal disease.
or imprisonment for life after COM
muted death sentence.
It is evident that the most radi-
cal feature of this measure lies in
the clause which would allow d.
vorce after desertion for three
years. This means in effect that q
| couple may separate for three
years, and, after this period OF pro-
baton, get a divorce upon upon
proof of the separation.
Divorce in This Country.
The divorce situation in this
country differs from that in Eng
land in that we have different d.
yorce law in each state, and thai
the national congress has never
legislated on the subject, except il
regard to the District Of Columbia

need for . uniform divorce law
has .boen proved to al and sundry;
but nothing has been done about Il
and there 10 no good prospect that
anything will be done. There is
strong religious sentiment in this
country against liberal divorce
laws. and . strong state-rights SEN
timent against national legislation
on. the subject. These two elements
make OF divorce . subject which
congress will gladly neglect as
long as it can, Just ~ it neglected
the prohibition and woman SUI
frage issues for 40 or 50 years and
met them only when it had to do
SO.
There are - divorce laws in the
United States, and ~ different
causes for which divorce may be
granted. A man may be married
in one state OF the union and sin
gle in another, he may be married
to one woman in one state and an
other woman in another state. The
discrimination against the poor
man, and indeed against all except
the really rich man, is more mark
ed here than in any other country
in the world. Mary Pickford can
60 to Nevada and get . divorce as
easily as you and can go to a
picture show. For the rich, d.
vorce is merely a matter of deSr-
ing it. For the poor it is almost
unattainable, and it is a difficult
business for any one who has to
stick to his job and cannot go west
for six months. The injustice of
this situation is obvious. It is one
that Christ would surely not have
endorsed. Whatever the grounds
upon which divorce is to be grant
ed, they should surely be the same
for all. 1t will be interesting to
note whether the efforts to make
divorce a just and equable thing in
England will bring any revival OF
the effort to make it SO in this
country.

His opinion on a purely social
problem cannot be any longer re-
garded as final.
The English Law.
The present divorce law in Eng
land 10 illiberal in the extreme. In
order to get . divorce from her
husband, q woman must prove
both adultery and cruelty. As in
this country, great numbers Of d.
vorces are gotten by collision. II
ID usual to prove the adultery

cruelty 10 more difficult. 1t is held
that prolonged desertion is cruelty
1t is therefore usual for couple
seeking divorce to separate. After
certain length of time the wife
writes . letter to the husband ask
ing him to return. He refuses
The wife then brings suit "for res
! titution Of conjugal rights" Of
which one is always reading in the
newspaper accounts Of divorces IL
British high society. If after Il
days the husband does not return
the charge Of cruelty is considered
proved. and the divorce follows il
due course.
In this way persons who have
sufficient money have been long &C
cnstomed to get divorce whenever
they wished; but it is a long, ex
pensive process, highly remunera
tive to the lawyers. AS in this
country, so in England. it is Thu
