SEES DIVORCES GROWING.

| creasing at a great rate here and 50
i too. according to Jud"" Darling, are
F.! the "shyster methods" as they are
som etimes termed in America where
by some divorces are obtained. Judge
Darling is one of the veterans of the
bench who has recently had to tackle
divorce cases. in addition to his regu-
lar judicial work. in order to cope
with the growing demand for the un
tying of nuptial knots.
I've know perfectly well tina. an
enormous proportion Of the unde-
Tended cases in the divorce court are
merely collusive." said Judge Oar
ling. "Men know rs well as do that

body knows it. only it is presumed
that the judge in th" divorce cour'
does not OF course he does.
Judges who had retired are dragged
back instead of being able to enjoy
their old age in comfort because
there are not enough judges to deal
with these cases And what wonder
when people can come into the d-
vorce court and treat it in this fash
ion?
He added that what people looked
for most in the newspapers were the
hkencsses of every adultercr who
could be snapshotted coming out of
the courts.

New York Herald Bureau,
Berlin, April 10.
A partial emancipation of the German
mark from the dollar was noted with
satisfaction on the German Bourse last
week. Hitherto the slightest variation
in the quotation Of the mark in New
York was answered Immediately in Ber-
lin but this week the Berlin dollar rate
held steady This is not regarded as
especially significant. but 1t is evidence
of gradual returning Of stability.
Heavy English buying or Mannesmann
stocks was the real feature in financial
circles this week and may have been i'm
spired by the prospect that Names
mann will be a heavy participator in
the reconstruction Of the devastated de-
partments OF France.
10 summarize the general situation.
Germany does not need much raw mate
rial because her export business is slow,
and does not need foreign exchange be-
cause she has sufficient foodstuffs to last
until the new crops are harvested.
The Government has introduced bill
authorizing the Reichsbank temporarily
to issue notes beyond the present legal
limit. Before the war one-third of the
note currency had to be covered by gold.
This reserve later included silver and
then came the assenscheine,
a special kind of paper currency covered
by first class securities. These. taken
out by large firms. are slowly being paid
back and withdrawn from circulation.
Adolph Havensten, president of the
Reichsbank, advocated the bill before
the Reichstag committee, stating that
the measure was necessary and would
not hurt he confidence in the Reichs-
bank, which would change the weekly
statements sho wing more clearly the act
ual status by separating the foreign and
domestic credits. The last Reichstag
statement showed an unusual increase In
the floating debt.

The Lubbock avalanche. (Lubbock, Tex.) 1909-1922, 1921-12-16
JUNIOR CHAMBER on COMMERCE TAKES
IMPORTANT CENSUS

tuesday morning the cour, house was scene
of much hustle and go 90 from there the young
men Of the Junior Chamber OF Commerce made
their start into all parts OF the town taking the
most complete and important census that has
been taken in the city OF Lubbock since Il has
grown from out OF the small town class.
The QUESTIONABLE prepared by Secretary
Keen. and to get data on number OF pues-
tons and will serve guide TO the churches
schools. Red Cross and other institutions that
will be Interested in knowing the number Of peo-
pie who might be interested in any particular line
Of work in this city.
Approximately sixty young reported for
duty, and started from the court house at about
nine o'clock. and at large number OF the
workers had turned in their lists. and the remain
der were through after about hours work in
the afternoon.
The reports have not been tabulated at this
time but the Chamber of Commerce office is
busy checking the lists for the number of rooms
available for the teachers who will attend the
institute from the 9th to the 24th OF this month
The Junior Chamber Of Commerce organiza
ton is live wire and its members are awake to
the needs of Lubbock and are doing all they
can to assist in anything that is calculated to be
of service in solving its many problems
With but few exceptions the young met
with kind patronage and friendiliness in their cen
sus taking of Lubbock Tuesday and all speak
nlgnly OF tnlS Splendld attitude OF people,
Lubbock is filled with well educated, broad
minded and liberal people, which made it easy
for this proposition to be put with very few
Of the men working longer than four hours.
there were only about sixty Of the workers, this
is a splendid reward for this kind Of work
Census taking is not easy job at all and
the Junior Chamber of Commerce members were
aware Of this fact before the work began, but
through the assistance Of the people. and their
working together they made it look like they were
out a relay race. One very commendabe
characteristic of some Of the young men was
shown when they finished the section assigned to
them. then went to work on the more densely
populated section Of their fellow workers.
The QUESTIONABLE they had to fill out covered
many phases of work. as this Is about the most
complete census that has ever been made Of Lub-
book which would have made the work difficult
but for the fact that our citizens realized the
Importance of this data. and only a very few
questioned the need of making prompt answers.
One very reasonable old gentleman is reported
to have insisted that his wife gave the men the
answers in the least time he had read in the
Avalanche that there could be no time for argu-
ment, this report must be made in the least
possible time Thanks to this spirit. may it ever
exist in the hearts and homes of our people.

OUR CHRISTMAS NUMBER

The Avalanche greets you with another
Cbr;stmas edition In this number the mer.
chants are calling attention to their splendid
stocks of Christmas goods and trip through
the shopping centers OF this city will prove that
thew are not in the least exaggerating about
their ability to take care of the needs and wishes
Of the people of this country in holiday goods.
Never before in the history OF this city has there
been such splendid displays OF Christmas goods
as well as useful articles suitable for Christmas
gifts in all Of the stores of the city. There Will
be more general buying this Christmas in this
section than probably any other section OF the
State for our people as learn from people
who have recently travelled over great Por-
ton of the State have more spare money than
most anywhere else.
The Avalanche is very grateful indeed tor the
splendid business our merchants have given us
all the fall, and in fact throughout the past
year, and their liberaty has made this splendid
edition possible. We hope that every one will
be fully repaid for their most loyal patronage,
and we believe that every dollar they spend
with this institution will be good investment
This paper has a large pay roll, and as little
as you may think about it return in wages
alone to this town every year more than S3O,-
600 and this money is. almost to cent spent
with Lubbock people When you patronize
the Avalanche you help build the town in more
ways than one and appreciate the splendid
Christmas business you have given and we
hope you viii enjoy reading this special Christ
mas number

PAY YOUR POLL TAX

The time is upon for paying poll tax il we
would qualify to vote in the elections next year.
No more important elections have ever been held
than those waiting the coming year We will
be called upon 10 vote for men who will determine
whether not shall have prohibition. As
IL is today. the peace officers Of Texas are giving
us dry state only in spots. Let us elect men in
every county who will give US an entirely dry state
The women, well as the men must determine
who these officers are to be- but no one can vote
without poll tax receipt 1t is just important
to elect the right to office il is to out
the saloon. There will be women who do not
want to vote, but II is not a question of what we
want, it is question of duty. When the State
did not give the the ballot they had no
opportunity to cast their votes and therefore no
responsibilities. Now the State is waiting with the
ballot for each well as each man to
qualify Let ever one pay her poll tax and get
ready. Let her also that hubby does the
1t must be done now Don't wait-Home
and State.
