tltioner." Instead of being held for the
convenience of the petitioner, it was held
on account of the necessity of the peti-
toner caused by the high waters of the
Connecticut river.
The Vermont supreme court was bound
by the findings of the county court. ac-
cOrding to the petitioner. land the find
ings show the wood was held until such
time only as it might be safe to allow the
wood 10 float into the Connecticut riv-
er. and that it was not held there for any
other purpose.
If the wood had been started by teams
and wagons. SAYS the petitioner, ION the
highway from the towns where it was
cut. to Hinsdale. New Hampshire. and
had arrived at Brattleboro on March
18th. and the highway had been covered
by the Hood waters of the Connecticut
river so that to enter therein would cause
the loss of the property. and these teams
transporting the wood had been delayed
by the Hood until April 3D. and such in
terruption would be the same as the in
terrnptions described in the findings of
fact"
In conclusion the plaintiff says: From
the we'll settled law applied to the facts
as found. this wood was exempt from
taxation in the town of BrattIeboro. be
cause it commenced its interstate Jour
ney when it was deposited in the West
river at the head waters from the places
where If had been gathered together from
the various towns. These points where
the wood was gathered together at the
heads waters of the West river were the
entrepot from which the interstate Jour
ney started. as is apparent from the
findings of fact. and the detention at
BrattlebOrO was on account of the ne
ceSSity of your petitioner and to prevent
the loss of its goods, instead of for its
benefit and convenience"

DIVORCE LAWS
IN JAP AN ARE
BEING REVISED
Women Still Have Nothing to
Say Regarding Separation;
Hubby is Complete Boss

HONOLULU, It. H., OcS - A uni
que feature of the gradual rise of wo-
mems influence in Japan, until their
position now is slowly approximating
that of American and British women,
is that they are giving up smoking,
just at the time when great comment
has arisen over the increase of smok-
ing among their sisters in America
and England, according to DIR. T. H.
Haden, dean of the theological de-
parement of Kwansei Gakuin, mis-
sion college in Japan, who attended
sessions here of the Pan-Pacific edu-
cational conference as one of the en-
pire's representatives.
Formerly all classes of women in
Japan smoked in public as well as in
their homes" DR.. laden said. 1.-The
influence of the west has almost STOP
ped this custom although it is to the
interest of the government to foster
it, as tobacco is government monop-
oily"
New Word Is Coined
DR.. Haden said that a new word
for home katei,"-has been coined
in Japan to express the meaning and
idea of home life in western civiliza-
tion as it is being learned by the JAP
anese.
The changing. condition of Japan
csc women is only begun but it is pro
ceeding with a rapidity and intensity
which are very significant and hope
full" he said. 1.-The Japanese Ian
guage had a word expressing house
and household, but they had no CO
ception of home life in the occident,
/,
with men. This is now expressed By
'katei,' with the new appreciation of
home as a thing to be shared bu hus-
band and wife and the gradual rise of
the Japanese women to the position
of their American and British sis
ters."
DR.. Haden said that the city popu-
lation of Japan is increasing Is times
as fast as that of the country, due to
the change of industry from agricul-
ture to manufacturing. More than
100000 are engaged in factory work
and in excess of half of these are i'm
der 20 years of age, he said
kimono Is Retained
A significant and interesting indi-
cation of the change in progress In
Japan now is the fact that while the
japanese women retain the kimono
as their chief attire, they have dis
carded the obi-the folded square of
cloth worn on the back-and over
their kimonos many of the women
now wear full, divided skirt. which
ties around the waist, with a wide
sash and hanging at the side.'' DIR.
Haden said MANY OF them also
wear shoes instead of their sandals.
Divorce laws also have been re-
Vlsed in accord with other transit
lions. Formerly man could send his
wife back to her parents without ex-
cuse or explanation This act con.
stituted legal freedom for him. Now
he can only divorce her for infidelitv
or by agreement with her. The wo-
man as yet has no recourse against
the infidelity of her husband. nor
even though he bring a concubine
INTO the home, as frequently has been
done.
The example of Americans. their
MONIES and schools in Japan, gradual
ly has altered the hearts and feelings
OF the Japanese until they have been |
induced to effect these changes"

MIXING nome Tor writing man

So says an attractive, slender and
small young women with large. In
telligent dark eyes and winning
smile.
She is Mrs. III. C. Witwer. wife OF
the temperamental Sultan of Slang
As she has made it possible for her
brilliant young husband to turn out
216 short stories in his career of six
and half years as an author and has
helped his earning capacity soar to
the peak her words are. indeed, wifely
wisdom.
Il have two little boys in my fam
ily." saws Mrs. Wftwer, lone son, and
one husband.
''The son is and will grow up But
the husband. who is 81. probably new
er will.
"Oh, how easy to manage they arel
THE only thing you have to do is
to give them their own way in every
thing.
"Of course one has to decide what
their own way is to be and never,
never let them know that you thought
OF it first

is not going to be a writer.
Il couldn't stand two, although

In addition to the PIG short stories,

my husband, when he starts a
story, will sit for "a hours at his type

Concentration is one of the secrets
of Witwer's remarkable success-con-
centration and an appetite for hard
work.
But without the young wife who
has stood by his side and made it pos
sible for him to work and concen-
trate, the young Sultan of Slang saws
he could never have succeeded so
well and in so short time.
