Mrs. Pennison Granted Divorce.

Decision in one Of the most famous
divorce cases involved in many re-
spects, was rendered by Judge Roeser
in district court yesterday afternoon
when Susan Pennison, now resident
of St. Cloud, was granted an absolute
decree of divorce from her husband,
George H. Pennison of Wayzata.
The decision also gives the woman
permanent custody Of three children
and temporary custody of a fourth,
and an alimony of $45 per month for
their keep.
The case was tried in district court
before Judge Roeser for three days
and two nights during the month of
January. It brought out the most I'M
usual evidence ever introduced in a
divorce action. The charge of the
woman was cruel and inhuman treat
ment.
It was claimed by the woman that
she had gone from Fargo to Mime
apolis with Pennison when she was a
young woman. He had obtained a
marriage license in Fargo to be mar
ried in Minneapolis. Technical diff
culties arose and Pennison Informed
his bride-t o-be that he had it call ar
ranged" SO that their marriage was
legalized by the license and that the
performance Of the ceremony was
merely matter of form to be carried
I out.
The woman accepted his expressed
version and they lived together as hus-
band and wife for several months, the
woman pleading with him from time
to time to have the ceremony per-
formed.
When the action was brought for
trial in district court the unusual spec
tacle of the division of the children on
the two sides Of the issue was intro
duced. The oldest child, boy, was a
witness for his father and on the stand
testified for him and against his
mother.
Attorney James j. Quigley Of St.
Cloud represented the woman and At
torneys Swenson and Skahen Of Min
neapolis appeared for the defendant.
1t was brought out during the course
of the trial that Pennison had on sew
eral occasions evaded service of the
papers.
The decision Of Judge Roeser today
marks the closing Of the action which
attracted great deal of local atten-
ton and which brought out an I'M
usual attendance at court during its
hearing. st. Cloud Journal Press,

To select the most important use

cult. To illustrate how little the
average citizen is likely to be IN
formed of some of its less romantic
uses the following extract from a
statement made by one student OF the
subject is given:
."Of all the applications of rubber,
| that of packing for the steam engine
and connecting machinery appears to
have been the most Important, as it has
been an essential condition of the
development and extended use OF
steam as a motive power"

The annals of invention contain few
more romantic chapters than those
relating to Goodyear. Convinced that
rubber was one of the most useful
substances in the world he undertook
the task of finding a way to make it
servfceable. After years of effort he
learned that sulphur was valuable
in its treatment, but only half solved
the problem
During all his experiments he had
never dreamed of applying heat, be-
cause even a slight degree of heat
turned the substance into a sticky,
shapeless mass. Then by accident he
found that q high degree of heat was
the very thing needed After making
this discovery it took him five years
more to work out a process that was
satisfactory.
Goodyear a Poor Man.
He was a quiet, sickly. religious
man. During the period of his ex-
periments he and his family were in
dire want. and only the kindness of
pitying-and, at times, scornful-
friends and neighbors kept them from
starvation. Goodyear refused to be
swerved from his objective and wrest-
led with his problem until he had
won complete success.
When Charles Goodyear began his
experiments. rubber as known to CIV
iliZation, was the crude rubber of to-
day. The possibilities it possessed
were realized to- degree. and for
tunes We're spent in the attempt to
manufacture durable goods from it.
But these goods were, SO affected by

ognition at this particular time be-
cause of the Importance to present
day civilization of rubber as demon
strated by the tremendous growth of
the rubber industry of the United
States in the last decade and more
especially in the last five years. \
The growth of the industry in this
country is best illustrated by the fol-
lowing official government figures
showing rubber manufactures since
1879: 1879. $25. 1889. $42,Ss3.-
81; 1899. sss.sso.s17; 1so4. s14s:ol5,-
1886; 1918, $1.122,135, 760.
America dominates the field Of rub
Der manufacture. Not less than 70
per cent of all the crude rubber con-
sumed in the world is made into
goods in American mills.
Countless Uses Of Rubber.
In placing rubber at the service OF
mankind Charles Goodyear made
available a substance of SO many
users are countless. Rubber is used
for some certain purposes because
it stretches. for others because 1T is
alright and watertight, for others
because it is a non-conductor OF cleo
trictiy, for others because it has
either great Elasticity or great hard
ness, for others because it is>shock-
absorbing, and for others because it
is adhesive.
Rubber literally holds up the stock
lings and the trousers of the world.
Infants cut their teeth o. it, and old
age uses it in false teeth. Eight mil
llion motorists and other millions of
cyclists in the United States ride on
rubber tires that are durable, noise
less and alright. Balloons of rubber
float aloft, and huge submarines pillow
their routes beneath the oceans sur
