that the present chiefs are doing all
possible along these lines.
We. appreciate very much the

KLEE DIVORCE SUIT
WITHDRAWN TODAY

Mrs. Rose Klee. Of Newark. wife
OF Louis yKlee. who has been con-
nected for years with the White
Motor Truck Company. this morning
withdrew her suit for a divorce
which had been pending in the su-
perior Court
The motion to withdraw Il was
made upon her instructions by her
counsel, Percy Warren Green. II
was granted. without prejudice, to
Mrs. Klee. upon payment Of costs.
The suit against Klee was based
upon the statutory ground. Before
il was tried. Mr.. and Mrs. Klee
signed a separation agreement
whereby she received the sole Gus
tody Of their son, Eugene, and $1,000
in cash and certain other things
which did not amount TO much.
Klee obligated himself to pay
the maintenance and education OF
the boy. Mrs. Klee agreed not to
make any further demands upon
him.
Following the hearing in the
divorce case Mrs. Klee decided that
It would be much better for her own
material welfare to withdraw the
case and sue him for non-support
rather than accept an income OF IS
month in interest from the $1,000.
She also was advised that the agree
ment not to make any further de-
mands upon her husband will not
stand the test Of court proceedings,
as 1t is contrary to public policy.
II was to clear the way for non
support proceedings, she said. that
she withdrew her divorce suit to-
dag.

is as follows:
DEAR OLD DELAWARE
Alone tonight there sits a mother.
Thinking Of her boy somewhere,
Gone to fight for Nations freedom,
| In his eyes she Is once more looking
Trying to hide her deep despair
/ Though she bids him farewell,
And God Bless
As he leaves from Dear Old ~sla-
ware.
Der across the Atlantic ocean,
In a land somewhere. In Franco.
Are our boys in Pershing's army.
Just as brave as there were IN
Grants.
Then cheer up, dearest mother,
Leave him in the Masters care,
For our boys are coming victorious
AS he l-aves from Dear old Della
ware.
Dear mothers. sisters. brothers,
And dear old daddy. too,
Don't worry about your soldier boy
He will always be good and true.
Tonight it's true nc is far away.
But his thoughts are an for you.
And of his dear old country, too,
To the glorious Red, White and
Blue.
As he bids his mother goodbye,
Ae he leaves from Dear old Della
ware.
Well do remember the day W
marched away.
The band played as VIC we're goin
to camp.
And Eood-hy was all we could say
Ae we marched away from Cam
Dix
For our fighting lover there"
And we're going 10 show the Kaiser
How we can fight over there
As ne bids his mother farewell,
Ae ne leaves from Dear Old Della
ware.
Every day we hear of our soldier
Going TO the fighting line.
Z / Our regiments expecting
, Her call al any time.
, And truly we are ready
For our journey over the sea.
And when we've licked the Kaiser
{ How happy we shall be.
As he leaves from Dear Old Della
, ware.
