COUNTRY LIFE
 AND THE FAMILY

A news dispatch reports that in Cook county, Illinois, which includes the city of Chi cago, there was one divorce last year for every five mar riages.
 Did you ever notice how family troubles are more com mon in large cities? The big ger the place, the more dis content, the more family jars, the more divorces, the more wrecked homes and children set adrift in the world.
 When you work to keep people living in country towns you work for a wholesome family life. In rural commun- ities, the people have their minds taken up by honest in- dustry and friendly neighbor- hood life. This makes for better and happier homes.

' y ' ' ' Y y Y sH '

More towns die for want of confidence on the part of busi- ness men, and public spirit, than from rivalry of neigh boring towns or adverse sur roundings. When a man is in search of a home or business location, and goes to a town and finds everything brim- 1ul of hope and enthusiasm over the prospects of the place and earnestly at work to build up the town, he soon becomes imbued with the same spirit, and as a result he drives down his stakes and goes to work with the same interest. When, however, he goes to a town and everyone expresses doubt and apprehension in the fu- ture prospects of the town, he naturally feels that it is not the place for him, and at once shakes the dust from his feet, while he pulls with all possible speed for some other town. Consequently, try and make a live, enterprising, pro- gressive town out of one in which you live, and remem- Der that when you are work ing or saying good words for your town, you are accomplish ing all the more for yourself. Then speak a good word for our town.

Westerner Forced
Her to Marry Him at
Gun Point.

Chicago, March 1s.-The West
still is wild and woody, G: least ac-
cording to the story told Superior
Judge Harry A. Lewis here by
Mrs. Clara Quick, former Chicago
telephone operator.
In the heart of the Dakotas,
where the Indian and Western
bad man" formerly took what
they wanted at the point of six
shooters, Guy Quick lived in the
little hamlet of Burke, S. d. 1t
was Mrs. Quick's misfortune, she
told Judge Lewis, to meet the inn
pulsive Guy in his own bailwick.
Immediately, she testified, he
determined that she should be his
wife whether or no. What follows
is tnged with the sinister and
bizarre features that furnished so
many thrills to the stories of early
Western days.
Mr.. Quick confronted the young
woman one evening as she was
returning to the home of relatives
in Burke,
You are going to marry me-" he
told her bluntly.
Think up something funnier."
she said, and attempted to pass on.
Gave iIan" Stuff
You'll marry me or you'll never
leave the state alive" she testified
Mr.. Quick told her. wen have
no trouble in getting a minister.
We think no more of killing a
minister than we do of killing
you"
Mrs. Quick testified that he
permitted her to go home that
night
Two days later, however, he
rode up to her home, ordered her
to accompany him. and locked her
in his ranch house, she says.
I'VE were there for about three
hours" she testified. fThen he
opened the door of an adjoining
room. 1t was full of rough looking
men--friends of his--all armed
with revolvers. A minister was
there too. He appeared to be as
cruel as the rest of them. l was
afraid to utter a word of protest
because Mr.. Quick held a revolver
pressed to my side while the cere-
mony was being performed"
Mrs. Quick, through her attor-
neys, Arthur Kettles and Charles
Bidwell, sought to obtain an an
nulment of the marriage on the
ground that it was contracted un-
der duress. Judge Lewis continued
the case. Indicating that he could
not grant a decree because neither
is a resident of Cook County.
