Cooper Beat Her
Wife Complains

Dallas, Or, Mar. 2.-Suit was
filed in the circuit court by Anna
b. Cooper against Pearl C. Cooper,
seeking a divorce. The Coopers
were married at Independence in
1916. where Mrs Cooper now re-
sides. There is one child aged 3
years.
Mrs. Cooper alleges cruel and in
human treatment and states that at
one time Cooper struck her violent
ly in the face with his fist and CALI
ed her vile names and accused her
of infidelity. Such treatment caused
her to leave her home in JanuaI >,
1921, in order to protect herself,
she alleges.
She asks the court for a decree
and desires that the custody of the
minor child be given to her mother,
Mrs. Minnie Saunders of Independ-
ence. She also asks for costs of
promotion of the suit.

Man Has Worked In
Capital Since 1869

| Washington, Mar. 2.-Sec etaife
ambassadors, ministers and depart
ment heads may await the chanEt

''eCretary of state
Since 1869 Eddie" has attended
at the secretary's door, ushering in
and out the princes, potentates
diplomats, politicians and mere
pests who from time to time find
it necessary or expedient to pay d
visit to the senior member of the
American cabinet.
In manye eways Eddie is distin-
guished To begin with, he knows
the names and faces of probably a
greater number of the worlds pub
tic men than any other living per-
son. His memory in this regard is
proverbial among officials, and he
can be relied upon to furnish at a
moments notice the pedigree of al
most any caller at the secretary's
office, whether the visitor hail
from Latin America, Europe or the
Orient.
Inc department abounds in stor-
les of diplomats returning to Wash
ington after an absence of ten or
fifteen years, only to be recognized,
catalogued and ticketed by this lit
tie russet-colored Who's Who in
diplomacy before they have even
presented cards or credentials,
During the fifty-two years of
presiding at the little desk just out
side the secretary's door, Eddie has
served many distinguished chiefs.
With characteristic reserve, how
ever, he is cautious of expressing a.
preference. Hobnobbing with diplo-
mats all his life, he has acquired tol
a considerable degree their manner
of speaking and there is just a sug
gestion of that diplomatic "cagey-
ness" which is the bane of news |
paper correspondents reporting the
activities of the state department |
Throughout his diplomatic ca
reer, however, Eddie has labored |
under one handicap which, in part,
1t least, arises from physical pc
cularities of figure over which he
has no control. In showing the
way to strange diplomat it is his
custom to proceed the visitor by Il
few feet, meantime lending verbal
by the remark
Walk this way, please, sir"
If it is recalled that Eddie is
probably the bow-leggedest man in
the world, it will not difficult to
that inexperienced di-
plomats are sometimes amazed at
the little mans polite request.

London, March EVERY year
will be leap year by and bye. For
the scientists and feminists are
Joining hands to prove that at
should be SO.
All along the Darwinian line, SO
to speak, it is the female of the
species that does the selecting or
mate-until mankind is reached.
There, also, some-both scien-
lists and feminists-admit the te-
male of the species does a bit OF
selecting. But it's only indirectly.
Ana it's all wrong.
Sir John Cockburn started the
ball rolling in a scientific lecture.
Scientifically, it seems, woman
should propose. It's a mistake,
perhaps, that she hasn't been do
ing it all along.
DR.. knight. of the Freedom
league, says she and other women
present at the lecture quite agree
with Sir John.
Women ought to be free to
choose the father of their child
ren," Dr. knight contends. At
present they are not entirely free
and they never will be until COM
plete economic equality Of women
and men has been achieved.
"Of course, most girls select
their husbands nowadays, but it is
done in an indirect-one might al
most say underhanded-way. Why
should it not be done quite openly?
If a girl likes a man and feels
that she wants him as her hus-
band, it ought not be considered
immodest on her part to make the
first advances. The man might
be too shy.
"A girl would instinctively pick
a man who would make her a
good husband and I don't see any
reason why woman shouldn't pro-
pose.
Men can say no just as girl
can. They would soon get used to
it,"
Mrs. NJ. L. Seaton- -Tiedeman,
secretary of the Divorce Reform
union, thinks it might help put
her society out of business. There
would be fewer divorces.
